Carrots

This recipe has been made by my grandmother and mother and now me. We all love it. Although my daughter claims my carrots are not as good as her grandmothers :).

Ingredients

1 bag of carrots
Cornstarch
butter
sugar
salt
vegetable granulates


Step 1


Peel and cut carrots in pieces



Step 2


Place cut carrots in large pan and
Cover them with water. Not too much. The
water should just be covering the carrots.


Step 3


Add 1 teaspoon salt and 2 tablespoon sugar.
Cover and bring to a boil.



Step 4

Cook until most water is
evaporated. And carrots are tender



Step 5


Mix a little cornstarch with water



Step 6



Stir the cornstarch until smooth.



Step 7


Pour cornstarch into carrots
A little at a time just to thicken the
left over water in the pot and add
a little butter to taste. (maybe a teaspoon or two)

Step 8

Season with vegetable granulates
to taste and serve.





Bon Appetite!!!

Wirsing (Savoy Cabbage)

We love this vegetable. I have a hard time finding it in the store. But when I do I buy it. This will freeze well too.

Ingredients


Wirsing (Savoy Cabbage) as much or as little as you like
Remember, volume will shrink as it cooks.
Bacon
Vegetabel broth

Step 1



Cut head of Wirsing in half.


 
Step 2


Cut out stem on both sides.




Step 3


Chop wirsing and rinse .




Step 4



Put chopped wirsing in large pot and fill with water.




Step 5


Put on stove on high heat and bring to a boil.
Cook until wirsing is tender. Drain.



Step 6


While wirsing is boiling cut up bacon into stripes.
You can use as much or as little as you want.



Step 7

Cook bacon until crispy.
I use the same pot that I cooked the wirsing in,
but you can fry it in another pan too.



Step 8

If there is too much fat from the bacon, drain a bit but
leave a little in the pan. Mix cooked wirsing, crispy
bacon and vegetabel broth to taste for seasoning.
Stir.



This goes well with the Rouladen in previous
recepie.

Bon appetite!!!
