Pie on the cob
Here
is one of my favourite challenge: To combine random ingredients from my
pantry and transform them into something edible. This challenge dates
back from my poor Uni days.
This time I had a can of creamed corn,
eggs, courgettes, honey, mushrooms and a few boxes of spice. My first
idea was corn fritters but I was not happy with the idea of ending up
with little patties dripping with oil. I then decided to combine all
the ingredients and throw the whole thing in the oven.
Giving a recipe would be difficult. I generally do not bother weighing and spooning my ingredients, except when I try a "technical" recipe for the first time. (eg: macarons). I combined the above listed ingredients+milk+starch+flour+baking powder+cumin seeds+tumeric and oven-baked for 20min.
I was quite pleased with the result: A brown and moist cake. I poured a honey, apple and soy sauce dressing on top and had it with cheese and apple wedges!!
