I have been playing in the kitchen, like I usually do, and I've realized that I really do enjoy cooking! I bake breads and cookies, and make delicious meals, and recently I've been excited to try my hand at making soup!
here's the recipie I made:
Squash: what's left over from your pumpkin pie-ing
squash: Baked butternut
curry: sauce from Trader Joe's
salt: a dash or three
basil: fresh, torn by hand
garlic: from Costco
oil: for simmering garlic and basil in, with salt
water: for cooking down the squash in
Here's how I do things: I get a big pot, put some oil in the bottom and heat it up. Putting a healthy dollop of garlic, basil curry sauce and salt in the oil I fry the herbs before I put in a whole bunch of water and Squash in. Cook down the squash until it's smithereens, then you can blenderize it however you see fit.
the problem with my cooking is that I just have fun with it, and I often forget that there are technical terms for things a.k.a. real measurements.
cook for a few hours, serve with more curry sauce and enjoy!
My friend makes soup, and on occasion he will share some with me, and this week it was potato leek!
The best part of cooking is the fact that there are no limits, and people should not see themselves as being stopped by what you have or dont have. Whatever you have, probably has another way to be combined, one in which your mind goes "huh! That's brilliantly delicious!" It's quite nice really.
Potato Leek soup with dill-oil and almonds, delicious!
