In times of a lockdown, what to cook....
Let me share with you a very simple recipe that you can cook during the crisis we are facing right now. It is really easy even if you do not have experience in cooking. It is also healthy and am sure you will love it. For a family of four, you just have to double the recipe.
You may already have some of the ingredients in your pantry or fridge and any leftover vegetables can be added for as long they are soft and spiced accordingly. This stew is meatless but you can of course add anything you like such as sausages or ground meat by simply stir frying them extra... adding them to the stew in the last minutes of cooking.
Simple Vegetable Stew
Ingredients (2 Servings)
3 cloves garlic, crushed
1 Onion, sliced/cubed
3 Large Potatoes, peeled and cubed
3 large carrots, peeled and cubed
2 celery stalks, chopped
1 zucchini, cubed
1 bell pepper, cubed
1 cup plucked parsley leaves
1 tablespoons soy sauce
1 teaspoon curcuma powder
1 1/2 teaspoon sweet paprika powder
Olive oil
salt and pepper
1 tablespoon Creme fraiche (optional)
Preparation
1... In a hot casserole with 2 tablespoon olive oil, fry the garlic , add the onion and stir fry til golden in color, add the potatoes and carrots , stir fry for about 3 minutes then add 1/2 liter water or vegetable stock, bring to a boil then simmer under low fire til the potatoes and carrots become soft. If most of the liquid has evaporated, add more water/vegetable stock accordingly
2... Meanwhile, in a pan with 1 1/2 tablespoon oil, add the celery, zucchini, bell pepper...stir til all are soft and glassy in appearance (about 3 minutes) then add this to the casserole of potatoes and carrots.
3...Add the plucked parsley (leaves only), sweet paprika powder and curcuma and simmer again for about 2 minutes. Add the soy sauce, season with salt and pepper according to your taste. If you like to make it creamier, you may add the 1 tablespoon creme fraíche and mix properly that it blends with the liquid. Can be served with baguette bread. Serve hot!
