Midsummer in Finland can be quite an adventure!
Instead of hitching I got a lovely red car, almost my own, and some two friends to get lost in the wild wild north Finland during the brightest day of year.
Unfortunately I gotta say after couple days of dry food in a gas stove and some 20km hiking my knee said it´s time to stop and hit the road towards a greener dinner table.
But one of my friends hiked so fast she ended up all the way to North Sweden by the time I managed to share this recipe in my blog, and the other one, an Argentinian tango teacher, probably danced his way down to London.
And, though I never danced tango with him (Yes, I am insane enough to let him go before stepping on his feet with my high heels!) I got lucky in the kitchen with him.
Apparently Mr. Tango had a great career as a chef before changing to tango shoe.
On my way to explore Finnish midsummer with my four wheeled red lover we found a cottage with a handful of good friends who were into herbs and fresh greens big time. I decided to take one of Mr. Tangos recipe and tune it up with a hint of India and a good amount of the freshness of Finland. Of course inspired by the new friends of the cottage.
Ingredients (for 2 portions):
Half of zucchini
2-4 carrots
Rose salt
Curry
Black pepper
About 3 tablespoons of coconut butter
Sunflower and pumpkin seeds roasted
Do it!
Peal and grate zucchini and carrots. Heat the pan and fry them with the rest of the ingredients. Add seeds. Eat with love, friends and a lot of sun!
Fast and delicious.
And light enough so you still have some space to fit some nettle pancakes with raw home made ice cream in your belly =)
