Tonight's dinner:
Two green plantains …
… boiled until tender …
… peeled and passed through a sieve …
… mixed with an egg, some finely chopped onion, some grated ginger, some salt, and half a cup or so of flour.
Rolled out and cut into gnocchi …
… and boiled in salted water until they floated. Then fried in some oil until browned …
Added to a soup made from a teaspoon of green curry paste fried in a little oil with half an onion, a cup of good strong chicken stock and another cup of water, some runner beans from the garden, fish sauce, lime zest, a couple of teaspoons of brown sugar, juice of most of a lime, and a tablespoon of coconut cream powder:
Not too bad at all, and a good bit still left over.
Plantain gnocchi - I like it! Lots of flavour to be had in that meal, too; it looks really tasty.
ReplyDeleteIt was, and the gnocchi weren't burnt, even though they look it in the photos.
