The food train

 

Gravy and mash, mash and gravy. Any mash will work. Gravy is supposed to be made from scratch by cooking meat, chicken or turkey in the oven with vegetables and then using the lovely natural fats and juices to  make it. When I get a bigger oven I will try this, until then I will cheat and use something called Bisto gravy. It's a powder you mix with cold water and add to whatever you're cooking. ANYWAY, carrot mash - yum.

 

400-500g beef mince

3 yellow onions

6 carrots

 2,5 dl cold water

2-3 tblsp Bisto gravy

A knob of butter for the carrot mash

Black pepper, white pepper, powdered nutmeg

 

Peel your carrots and slice them into 1 cm thick slices.

Boil in salted water.

Whilst your carrots are cooking:

chop 1 onion finely and mix with the mince.

Season with black pepper.

Shape the mince into meatballs and fry on medium high heat in a mixture of oil and butter.

Slice the other 2 onions finely.

When browned on both sides, mix the water and gravy powder in a seperate bowl and add to the pan.

Add the sliced onion and bring the gravy to a boil.

Turn down to simmer until the carrots are soft.

Turn the meatballs occasionally.

Pour the water from the carrots and mash them with a knob of butter and season with a little white pepper and nutmeg.

 

Serve with vegetables of your liking!

 

ENJOY!

 

 

Skysås och mos, mos och skysås. Vilken typ av mos som helst fungerar. Den här skysåsen ska egentligen göras från grunden genom att laga kött, kyckling eller kalkon i ugnen med grönsaker. Man använder sedan de naturliga fetterna och köttsafterna för att göra såsen. När jag skaffar en större ugn kommer jag göra detta, tills dess fuskar jag med något som kallas Bisto gravy som vi köper när vi är i England. Det är ett pulver som blandas med kallt vatten. HUR SOM HELST, morotsmos - mums!
