Busy but want to have a tasty meal? Here is a trick to achieve this, to cook large amount of pumpkin, carrot and tomato puree mix and store them in boxes put into the fridge or even put them in freezer. They can be an amazing taste base and served with variety of food.
You will need:
Step1: Get a big wedge of pumpkin and two sticks of carrot, chopped in chunks and boil in a deep pot;
Wait until they are soft, drain them and then crush them brutally in the pot(you need a potato masher), add salt and pepper to season a bit, set aside.
Step 2: Four or five tomatoes, chopped in chunks, you can remove the skin before you chop them.
(How to remove the skin: slightly cut a "cross" at the bottom of each tomato and throw them into hot boiling water for some seconds and you can peel the skin off easily, otherwise you prefer eating the skin like me, don't bother.)
Grab some chopped leak or celery, and your favourite herbs if you like, throw them to a hot pan with a little bit of oil or butter, season a bit, add all the tomatoes, keep stirring them until they are bloodily out of shape.
Step 3: Pour the bloody to the mashed pumpkin and carrot, flow them nicely until all mix, store them in the fridge.
If you want them to be extremely smooth, reheat the puree and pour some fresh cream or milk in. (I don't like to add cream or milk. I love to keep it light.)
How to serve:
1. If you are busy and just want to fix a hot soup for lunch or dinner, just reheat the puree mix in the microwave and serve with some bread rolls, divine!!
2. Sausages lover? Good, get some sausages(better with some ground beef or venison meat sausages) and pan fried with chopped onion and some more vege like peas and corns(Get them from frozen section in the supermarket), season with Worcestershire sauce, then when they are all cooked, place them on top of a hot big bowl with the puree mix, sprinkle some cheese and parsley if you prefer.
3. Spread the puree on a wrap sheet, lay the fresh salad with grill chicken breast, nice kebab done!
4. Stir fried some beef mince and beans, pour the puree in, place one or two eggs on top till they are half cooked, serve with some breads!
Lazy and tasty, you have them all!
