| Mixed Vegetable Pie My name is Erik-David Salam and I am an 8th grader at Maks Peèar school. I am 14 years old and I live in Slovenia. My recipe is called Mixed Vegetable Pie and it is a recipe from India. INGREDIENTS 2 cups left-over boiled vegetables (carrots), peas, beans, potato, etc. 1-2 tomatoes, peeled and sliced 1 hard boiled egg, sliced (optional) 1 cup cheese sauce 1/2 cup cooked macaroni or sphagetti, cut into 3" pieces 1 tblsp cheese grated Salt and pepper to taste 1 tblsp butter 1 tblsp coriander leaves, chopped =INSTRUCTIONS= 1. Mix the vegetables, the tomatoes and the egg with the sauce. 2. Place in a fireproof dish and cover with macaroni or sphagetti. 3. Sprinkle with the grated cheese, some salt and pepper. Dot with butter. 4. Bake for about 20 min. in a moderately hot oven (375?C). 5. Serve hot or cold decorated with coriander leaves. CULTURAL BACKGROUND Mixed Vegetable Pie is a favorite meal in India. This recipe is very like the recipe called Apple Pie. We know many different pies like apple, meat, . The name of this recipe may sound strange, but it isn't. Indian people eat a lot of vegetables and spiced ones too. You could say that this recipe is an exception, because it hasn't got any spiced ingredients. This recipe is also the easiest to make and the tastiest. Others are tasty too, but they are very spicy so you can't tell, are they tasty or not, because you need to drink 1l of water to cool the fire in your mouth from the spiced meal you eat. The spicy ingredient is often pepper and chilli. I enjoyed this meal, because it wasn't spicy. I hope you will too. |
