I call my recipe as my husband mark it. Tartiflette Maison he said. It called like that because it was like Tartiflette but since it was not baked at all, then we called it Tartiflette Maison. This is other of my experiment to finish potatoes and lardon (smoked bacon) at my refrigerator. You can eat it just like that or with salad on the side like we do.

Believe it or not, I even need to search from dictionary to find out the name of pasta that I used. It was curl just like mix between sea shell and snail. apparantly it between Lumace and Lumaconi. The way of cooking is just like macaroni, around 10 minutes on the salty boil water. I use a recipe from recipe book "Cuisine Super Facile"(= easy to cook in English), but I use lardon/beacon instead of Thon/Tuna on the recipe. I just a bit longer to cook the roquette, so when you try it, do not cook long the roquette like I do. Eventhough fpr the taste still good. At first I just want to make purée, but then I was confuse which protein I should use for the main course dishes. Thus, I ended browsing on Google and search any kind recipe that can inspired me to cook from ingredients potatoes and porc meat. I ended up with recipe called Pork & potato Supper Recipe. I do not know how they make it more colourful, but mine is ended a bit sticky and gloomy. Perhaps if I use fresh mushroom and green onion, the colour of the dishes more tempting. Well, my husband give point 4 out of 5 for my cook, thus I think not so bad at all for someone who can not cook. When you have many eggs in your refrigerator, you may think to make frittata. So do I, at the beginning, but then I have an obstacle to do that. We have no oven to bake here, just a microwave. Thus another thing that crossed on my mind is to make Carbonara pasta. This time I googling and get inspired by recipe from Jamie Oliver. His recipe called Beautiful Courgette Carbonara. He use penne, but I choose to use spaghetti insted. With adjustment here and there, here's my recipe ... I directly write before I forgot how to cook it, because I made many adjustment on this original dishes. Well, Christmas is around the corner, and the weather is more and more cold here. Today we had 2°C and fog through the day. My lamp solaire (solar lamp) for Christmas outside the house is not as bright as usual because not much sun today. I ended this weekend (last Advent) to try one recipe from the new cook book that my mother in law bought for me. The title of the book is "Cuisine Super Facile" (or "Really Easy to Cook"). This recipe book is really easy to understand, with lots of picture (include picture of the ingredients, thus you will be easier to follow) and big letter alphabet, just like book for the children. Anyway, when browsing from this book, I found one recipe of Frittata. The original recipe actually "Frittata aux Courgette", but because of I still have part of Aubergine (Eggplant in English) and Jambon Blanc (Cooked Ham in Engish), and lack of eggs, then I improvise a bit the recipe for 2 persons and with additional ingredients. Moreover, the time for cook is not just like they wrote on the book (only 5 minutes in oven). I need up to 45minutes in total to oven this frittata. But I can tell, the taste, I can tell I can proud of it :) Ingredients (for 2 persons) : - half up to 1 zucchini - half eggplant - 2 cooked ham - 35gr grated parmesan cheese - 4 eggs - 2tbsp olive oil - 2 garlic - 1tbsp fresh cream Preparation : - Grated the zucchini and put it separate. - Peel the eggplant and cut it on small cube. Put it separate. - Cut cooked ham on small pieces. Put it separate. - Peel garlic, crushed it and cut it on minced. Put it separate. How to Cook : - Crack the eggs on the bowl and whisk them well. - Add fresh cream, salt, pepper and grated parmesan cheese and mixed them well. Put it separate. - Using frying pan, heat olive oil for half minutes then add eggplant. Cook for around 5 minutes. - Add cooked ham and garlic and cook again until eggplant almost cook around more 5 minutes. - Add zucchini, salt and pepper and cook again for around 10minutes. - When zucchini and eggplant is well cook, add mixed of eggs-fresh cream-parmesan cheese inside and cook again for another 5 minutes while continue to stir it well. - Pour the mixture inside the ceramic bake-ware and put it on the oven 180°C for around 45 minutes. - Check whether the frittata well cooked. If necessary you can add more minutes if you check it is not well cooked. - After frittata well cook, take out from oven and served it on the plate. Bon Appétit ! So far based on my experience, 45 minutes is enough to oven the frittata, but you can check from time to time using skewers (we call tusuk sate in Bahasa), to check and make sure your frittata well cook and dry.
Btw, I just realize when I wrote this that frittata is like Italian omelette :) Aparently my cook not far from Asian food and Italian food; (/fin) |
