Quick and easy vegetable stew made out of onion, pepper, paprika and tomato. It’s an excellent company for meat dishes but it can stand on its own too.

As I currently have a little time, I had been surfing on the web a few days ago. Looking for new, fascinating tips, inspirational recipes that I have never tested before, to impress my family with. Looking for quite some time yet could not come across too many interesting things. Just before I wanted to give up on it, I stumbled on this delicious and easy treat simply by luck on Suncakemom. The dessert looked so mouth-watering on its pic, that called for fast action.

It absolutely was simple enough to imagine just how it’s made, its taste and just how much my husband is going to love it. Mind you, it is quite simple to please the guy when it comes to puddings. Yes, I am a blessed one. Or perhaps he is.Anyway, I got into the site and simply used the comprehensive instuctions that were accompanied by nice pictures of the procedure. It just makes life faster and easier. I could suppose it’s a bit of a inconvenience to shoot photographs in the middle of baking in the kitchen as you usually have sticky hands and so i highly appreciate the commitment she placed in to make this post .

With that said I am empowered to present my own, personal formulas in a similar way. Appreciate your the thought.

I was tweaking the initial formula to make it for the taste of my family. I’ve got to tell you it had been a great success. They enjoyed the flavor, the thickness and enjoyed having a sweet like this in the middle of a stressful week. They basically requested more, a lot more. So the next occasion I’m not going to make the same mistake. I am gonna twin the quantity .

Heat the oil in a large pan then add onion and sprinkle salt on top.Lecho-recipe-process

Saute it until it gets a translucent / glassy look. It should be done in 3-5 minutes on high heat while continuously stirring.

Add pepper and mix it well with the onion. Keep sauteing while stirring every now and again for another 3-5 minutes until the onion starts to get brown.

Add garlic and optionally zucchini or egg plant. Mix it well with the onion and pepper then keep sauteing for 2-3 minutes until garlic gives out its scent.

Sprinkle the paprika on top then add chopped tomatoes or tomato sauce.

Add some (about ½ cup) water to it, just to make sure the paprika won’t burn down. If tomato sauce is used then this step can be skipped entirely.

Mix everything together well then put the lid on and cook it for 5 – 10 minutes until all the vegetables are tender but still firm enough.
