Hi!

 

You would have been most welcome, gf!

 

I don´t think parsnip might do... the flavor is too different. If you can find

cassava it will be perfect.

 

A recipe for kale and beans ? These are things we learn with Mom, you know ...

let me try. It is like this:

 

KALE

 

1 bunch of kale

1 or 2 minced garlic cloves.

1 medium onion cut in thin half-moons

1 cup Italian parsley - minced

1 cup spring onion - minced

 

Cut a bunch of kale very thinly.

Cut lots of parsley and lots of spring onions very thinly.

Mix kale and parsley and spring onions and put in a colander and pour boiling

water over that.

 

Cook onion and garlic clove in olive oil for about 5 minutes.

Add kale and salt.

Mix till it wilts.

 

BEANS

 

2 cups dried beans

1 bay leaf

1 or 2 minced garlic cloves.

1 medium onion cut in thin half-moons

Tabasco to taste

 

 

Soak beans overnight. Discard soaking water. Cook with bay leaf till tender - we

use a pressure cooker and this takes about 15 minutes.

 

Cook onion and garlic clove in olive oil for about 5 minutes.

Add beans, salt and Tabasco. Cover and bring to boil. Let simmer for a few

minutes, to blend flavor.

 

CASSAVA or PERUVIAN CARROT

 

1 pound cassava

1 or 2 minced garlic cloves.

1 medium onion cut in thin half-moons

1/x cup Italian parsley - minced

Tabasco to taste

 

Cut cassava in big chunks and cook in salted water till almost tender.

Cook onion and garlic clove in olive oil for about 5 minutes.

Add cassava, salt and Tabasco.

Cover and bring to boil. Let simmer for a few minutes, to blend flavors.

Sprinkle with minced parsley.

 

 

 

Bon apetit!

and peruvian carrot dish, do you? Of course, it's a bit tricky if you don't=

know

where to buy such a carrot, but perhaps parsnip might do?

 

Anyway, it sounds very good - anything else in the dish besides the items y=

ou

mention? I very nearly took wing and flew to join you!
