This receipt is one I already posted on my German blog some weeks ago. Since I spent nearly 11 hours at college today, I am too tired to cook anything new and exciting and will probably stick with a beer for dinner.
"Aelplermagronen" is not a traditional German receipt but one of our closer neighbors, the Swiss. Probably my version is mutilating one of their culinary national sanctuaries, but it takes fantastic nonetheless. No low carb for me! ;)
Aelplermagronen with applesauce
serves two hungry eaters:
300g (0,65lb) potatoes
250g (0,55lb) elbow macaronis
200g (0,44lb) smoked tofu
1T oil
1 cup soy milk
1 big onion
1/2t ground sage
1/2t ground rosemary
1 pinch nutmeg
salt and pepper
3 apples
1-2T sugar
1 dash lemon juice
Cook potatoes in salted water. Let cool, peel and dice not too finely. Cook pasta according to package.
Peel apples, remove core and dice coarsely. Add the lemon juice and mix. Heat about 3T water in a small pot, add apple dices and sugar. Bring to the boil, lower heat and cook covered for about 25 minutes. Remove excess water and mash.
Dice tofu and onions. Heat oil in an pan, fry onions on medium heat until glossy. Add tofu and continue with frying.
Turn up the heat, add potatoes and pasta and fry, constantly stirring. Pour soy milk in the pan and season with nutmeg, sage and rosemary. Let soy milk thicken.
Season to taste with salt and pepper.
Serve with the applesauce.
Wow, that sounds really interesting. I'm always excited to try new things with pasta.
AntwortenLöschenGive it a try. ;)
