söndag 3 maj 2015


This is also a recipe from my husbands sister, in Turkey it is very common not to do plain rice instead they do with many diffrent flavours such as vegetables for example. It is an easy way to add a little more veggies to your diet.

Ingredients pilav

3 dl basmati rice
5-5,5 dl water
carrot
green peas
bullion dice
oil

wash the rice properly in a sieve and let flow off. peel and chop the potatoes and carrot, add green peas. let everything fry with oil for a bit including the rice and bullion dice, then add water. let boil on low heat with lid until water has dissapeared from the rice. check the bottom of pot with a wooden skimmer or similar. if there is no water in the bottom the rice is ready. never add too much or little water to the rice or it will be ruined. follow the rice instructions on the package if you are unsertain.

Ingredients Tzatsiki

1 cucumber or 3 small ones
Turkish yoghurt
2 pcs of garlic
pinch of spearmint (optional)
cold water and ice (optional for summer)

rive the cucumber with an shredder. press down garlic. mix with yoghurt. add a little water, crushed ice and spearmint spice for an extra cool finish for keeping it cold once served in a hot summer day.
