Feb. 3rd, 2010 01:31 amI should be studying for my exam tomorrow morning, so... I am posting this recipe for pea-mint soup instead, or peappermint, if you will (the pun also works in Heb. Afunana! Shut up.)
Ingredients for, say, 6-8 servings:
1 bag of peas (800g)
2-3 sweet potatoes (depending on size) cut up
1 onion, chopped
3 cups of water
big handful of fresh mint, chopped
Directions:
Cook peas, sweet potatoes and onion in the water for about 20 minutes. Toss in blender/use hand blender to mash them up, adding in the mint. If it's too thick, thin with some more water. Season with salt/pepper/little bit of sugar to your taste. THE END!
I love this soup. It's awesome as just regular pea soup, but adding the mint gives it this unique, unexpectedly awesome flavor.
And to make a delicious cabbage salad:
Ingredients: white cabbage, olive oil, vinegar, soy sauce, sunflower seeds (or any other kinds of seeds)
Directions: For the salad itself, just chop up as much cabbage as you feel like eating, and lightly roast the sunflower/pumpkin seeds/pine nuts/whatever. For the dressing, use equal amounts of olive oil and soy sauce, and a slightly smaller amount of vinegar. I use 3/3/2.5 tbsp for half a cabbage, but ymmv.
....back to pretending to study which will hopefully still squeeze some material into my brain.
