catsmother21 Posted September 16, 2011 Author Report Share Posted September 16, 2011 I spent almost a year and a half traveling around India and Pakistan,most of the time living with local families or just sleeping in a barn with the animals,so I learned how to cook traditional food .....got a shit load of great Indian veggie recipes for you malnourished veggies Oh that is the best way to see a country - live and eat with the locals and then you get the real culture and the real food - cannot understand people who go to gorgeous places and eat fish and chips and drink english beer - sorry if this insults anyone but I like to learn about and live the life of the country. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let me know how it tastes Fedup? Jerusalem artichokes are nothing like regular artichokes, they are more like a potato,they have a very nice nutty flavor not that hard to get either, I buy em in Sainsburys Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

catsmother21 Posted September 16, 2011 Author Report Share Posted September 16, 2011 I like them but hubby doesn't. When my brother came up in May we went to a restaurant and he had a veggie pasta with Jerusalem artichokes and I thought afterwards ooo that's an ingredient I can use in something but he told me he didn't like them!! Arrgh he's such a fussy eater but so are his parents and I think that's where he's got it from. There's so much stuff that I like that I can't eat anymore but I shouldn't complain cos he is lovely in every other way. :wub: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marc-74 Posted September 16, 2011 Report Share Posted September 16, 2011 simple answer to that is.....dont tell him that they are in there, ....then see what he thinks. I told jades one time that ox tongue is sooooooooooo nice, well.....she was nearly sick there and then, and was banging on about how nasty that tastes , I made a sandwich with it in a few days later, and she was saying thats so good, is that pastrami ?......no its ox tongue.

marc-74 Posted September 30, 2011 Report Share Posted September 30, 2011 I had my courgette fritters for dinner tonight. They are so easy to make and are soooooooooooo yummy. One large courgette (around 200-230grms) will make about 7-8 For each courgette you will need: one egg ,beaten 40-50g of hard cheese grated , Grano Padano is best 3-4 tbsp of plain flour salt and pepper Coarsely grate the courgette,then put it in a clean tea towel and twist it in a ball to squeeze out as much liquid as you can, if you dont do this, they will fall apart in the pan. put everything in a big bowl and mix it up well. Heat up a large frying pan with enough veg oil to cove the bottom of the pan. then take an egg sized amount of the mixture shape it into a ball and put it in the pan, they will flatten out, and after a few second just try and get your spatula under the edge a bit.cook 3 or 4 at a time for around 3 mins on each side, dont have the heat blasting , if its too hot they just burn on the outside. so easy and sooo yummy. mmmmmmm shall I share my chilli and onion jam recipe to go with em :cheff: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
