I had never cooked or eaten swede, till today that is. And I'm pretty sure it will be the last in a preparation like this. I am yet to try out the swede mash, which I hear is pretty decent, but it will have to wait.
As I had mentioned in my previous post about piling things in my cart, this pack of swede and carrot diced and ready to cook, was also part of that.
I followed the recipe for a basic thoran (South Indian preparation with coconut) replacing asparagus with the swede and carrot (approx. 250 gms each), chopped into cubes.
You can have it with roti or as a side to rice and dal.
The only thing I have cooked with Carrot till now is Gajar Halwa. This looks like a gr8 option !
ReplyDeleteLuv d clicks !!
Cheers n Happy Cooking,

ReplyDeleteYou are making me want to step out of my culinary box! This dish looks amazing, and it is something I'm largely unfamiliar with. Your photographs are just stunning, though. I'm drooling! Thank you for sharing, dear. I hope you have a beautiful Sunday!
ReplyDeletelooks yummy
ReplyDeletehave always over looked swede, thoran sounds like a great idea...love ur 2nd picture!
ReplyDeleteIt looks good, swede can be hard work to chop up so those diced bags are easier to prepare. I think it's best in big chunks in a lamb casserole and yes the mash is nice too - maybe mixed with potato since it can be a bit watery on it's own.
ReplyDeleteI will have to look up a few of the ingredients to see if these are available to me, thanks for the new recipe to try.
ReplyDeleteNever cooked with swede before, interesting thoran!! Great pics too..
