So, while making dinner tonight I got the idea of making "food bases" and freeze them for easier and faster cooking without using ready-made food from the store.
So far I've come up with 3 color bases, and from these an endless variety of recipes.
Here comes the recipe for the first base:
Orange base
5 cm chunk of ginger, peeled and chopped
1-2 cloves of garlic, chopped
1 tbsp coconut oil
Fry this for 5 min and add:
1 kg of carrots, peeled and diced
1,5 liters of water with 1 cube bullion or stock
Boil until tender and run through a blender or mash it any way you like.
Add salt and pepper to taste.
Use this for carrot soup:
To the base, add 2-3 deciliters of cooking cream or Oatly cream, bring to boil.
Serve with orange wedges and parma ham roasted in oven until crisp.
Use it as mash:
Boil some extra carrots or potatoes and mash them with butter or oil. Add the carrot base.
Pictures coming!
