And the name is not a joke! It got right on top of my favorite cookings even if I yet don’t know how much of everything I’ve put, but I had to post it since I already ate three plates just because it was delicious! Maybe I should start to make terrible food to just eat what I have to, to keep my engine running so I can dance dance dance!
Well, I’ve grown to watch my granny cook and I composed something similar to what she did couple weeks ago, but little hint of me in the soup. It's a bit sweet soup also because of the raisins I used, but I loved the variation! Plus it was composed out from what I found in my mom’s kitchen. And I dare say it’s better than my granny’s cookings, and that’s a lot to say!
So, here’s the ingredients I used, but not the exact amounts:
2 carrots
Half of zucchini
2 onions
2 garlic cloves
Half of paprika
About 10 cherry tomatoes
Some rice and red lenses or quinoa
Raisins
Spices:
Salt and pepper
Ginger
Curry
Nutmeg
Oregano
Thyme
And of course water
I also added some honey and some (coconut) cream to the other portion and I’d say the cream version was just perfect! It gave a smooth, rich flavor to the little bit sweet soup. Of course cream makes everything good =D
So here’s what we did with my mom:
Boil rice and lenses. Cut all the veggies, smash the tomatoes a bit and throw the carrots and zucchini in boiling water that we had about 1 liter. Then I added all the spices and let them boil some minutes. After I added all the other cut veggies and couple minutes later the raisins and the tomatoes. I let them boil all together until the carrots were soft enough and then I added the boiled rice and lenses. Of course you can boil the lenses and rice together with the carrots, but we had cooked them before.
Then add honey or cream and vola, it’s done! Bon appétit!
