A little recipe for you.
I love cooking. To me the kitchen is a science lab. There is so much you can try.
Eventually, you come up with something so awesome you can share with your friends, and family, and with the rest of the world.
Whether it's for dinner or for something to eat while watching a movie, I invented something ideal for both occasions. You can eat it hot or cold.
I call it the Mayo-Broccoli Dip.
I don't always use specific weights or amounts, I only use the amounts that's suitable for my tastes. Feel free to experiment, add or subtract anything to the recipe. Here it goes...
Ingredients you need:
- Broccoli
- Cauliflower
- Peas
- Garlic-Mayonaise
- Salt
- Olive Oil (Preferably the Greek Virgin Oil brand)
Tools you need:
- Sauncepan
- Hand blender - (Don't have one? A fork and swift hand will do)
- Kettle
- Sieve
- Metal Bowl
1.) First boil water in a kettle, it saves time, energy and money.
2.) Put some olive oil and salt in the saucepan.
3.) Add the hot water into the pan and bring it to a boil.
4.) Cut the broccoli and cauliflower to small pieces and put them into the pan.
5.) Add the peas into the pan.
6.) Leave to simmer for about 20 minutes to 30 minutes.
7.) Empty the contents of a Garlic Mayo bottle into the Metal bowl. Use a spoon if necessary.
You can also add some water into the bottle, close it, shake it, and the pour the remains into the bowl. This way you get the rest of the mayonaise out of the bottle.
8.) Once the vegetable have been boiled, pour the them into the sieve over the sink.
9.) With all the hot water gone, put the boilded vegetables ino the metal bowl.
10.) Bring out the hand blender and crush all ingredients until they're all nice and creamy.
Done! You have your dip.
As a Hot side for Dinner I had it with Chicken Kiev. The garlic butter that oozes out of the chicken is an ideal combination.
As a Cold snack, while watching a movie, I dip my Doritos in this. (Or Monster Munch, I recommend the Pickled Onion flavour).
So there you have it.
Enjoy! ^_^
