Well, i said in my last post that we were off to a Hangi (traditional Maori meal cooked in a hole in the ground). Unfortunately, Javi ended up with food poisoning! He vomited 5 times (including all over the bedroom floor, thank goodness for wooden floors!). Everyone had separate packages and in mine the veggies were a bit hard, so i didn’t eat it! Javi’s was cooked perfectly, but, obviously there was something else in there!
On a yummier note, heres my new fave dish, just for you Kate!
Citrus Salad (i first saw this in a Foodtown magazine, but has been adjusted more than enough to make it MINE!
4(if you are making it vegetarian you will probably want more!) Kumaras (sliced thinly)
2 T oil
2 T chilli flakes or 1/2 t paprika or 1/2 t chilli powder
2 T orange zest
2 T honey (melted in the microwave to make it runny!)
Put all these in a bag and shake, making sure the bag is not split, because that is REALLY messy!
Roast at about 200 C for about 20 mins. I do this earlier in the day.
On a big flat dish arrange 1 bag of salad (i like baby spinach) 1 avocado, spring onion, 1 orange, Kumara.
Mix 4 T Best mayonnaise, 1/2 orange (juice and pulp)
Pour over salad……………..
To carnivorize it add 3 rashers of bacon, 1 sliced chicken breast or 1 cordon bleu or 1/2 pack of Tegal chicken bites, some more of the dressing…..
