Curried Apple Hash

I admit it.  This did not call my name.  While, apples are marvelous, hash does not have enough oomph to its name.  When one thinks about it though, hash should be delicious. 


Oops, I guess it depends on which definition you use.


This is from Your Dictionary

  1. to chop (meat or vegetables) into small pieces for cooking
  2. INFORMAL to make a mess or botch of; bungle
Origin: Fr hacher, to chop, mince: see hachure
noun
  1. a chopped mixture of cooked meat and vegetables, usually baked or browned
  2. a mixture, as of things used before in different forms; rehash
  3. a hodgepodge; muddle; mess
I would prefer the chopped mixture to the muddle or mess.  Looking at it though, it does look messy.  The taste is far from messy and is a delight to taste.  This would make a good topping for salmon or chicken.  It would enhance rice or quinoa.

Curried Apple Hash Amy  Traverso, author of the Apple Lover's Cookbook (adapted)
Can you imagine a book filled with all kinds of apple recipes?  I want this book.  I am going to have to hint for someone to give it to me.  No way, can I spend any more money on cookbooks. 
Ingredients:
2 tablespoons olive oil
1/2 cup finely chopped onion
4 large Granny Smith apples, peeler, cored and sliced into matchsticks
2 tablespoons chopped chives
1 tablespoon curry
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1/8 teaspoon black pepper
1 tablespoon brown sugar
Method:
In large skillet over medium low heat, heat olive oil.  Add onion and cook until translucent. (5 minutes)
Increase heat to medium and add apples and cook another 5 minutes until soft.  
Stir in chives, curry powder, brown sugar, salt and pepper.  Reduce heat to low and cook for 8 additional minutes.
If you prefer it less sweet, omit brown sugar.

Thai Chicken San Choy Bau

It says, "thai" so I have to like the Thai Chicken San Choy Bau that we are making this week in our Donna Hay Wednesday group.  It was a bit spicy and the chopped chicken was a nice change of pace. Kayte selected this recipe from On the Shelf on page 124.   I tried it with the greens and it was very good and then I put it on spaghetti and it was spectacular.  My toddler granddaughter even liked it.  Must have been the hot sauce. I used romaine for the greens and I subbed in red pepper and added some Sirracha to spice it up to make up for the real chilis. Do check out the other cooks' dishes at our   Wednesday with Donna Hay site.

Brussels Sprouts - Power Food - Re-post

Another week, another vegetable for our Power Food group, a bunch of women who strive for healthy eating with the most delicious dishes. Each blog is inspiration . Each week, we choose a recipe based on the power food which comes from the book, Power Foods, 150 delicious recipes with the 38 healthiest ingredients from the editors of Whole Living magazine. Brussels sprouts like broccoli and cabbage are cruciferous. This group offers a unique composition of antioxidants that may provide several health benefits. Brussels sprouts are low in calories and offer protein, vitamins and minerals to help build a healthy human. My first issue with brussels sprouts is that it took me years to spell it correctly. Each time, it came up, in writing, and I admit, that was not too often, I would stare into space asking myself does brussel get an S, at the end or is it sprout that gets the S. For some reason, I could not remember that both end with that S. I am happy to tell you, I overcame thi

Carrot Cake _ Power Food - repost

Another week, another vegetable for our Power Food group, a bunch of women who strive for healthy eating with the most delicious dishes. Each blog is inspiration . Each week, we choose a recipe based on the power food which comes from the book, Power Foods, 150 delicious recipes with the 38 healthiest ingredients from the editors of Whole Living magazine. That week, we concentrated on carrots. I like to check out our vegetable, not only for health benefits, but also for the names of their sisters. Carrots are related to parsnips, fennel, parsley, anise, caraway, cumin and dill. I didn't have a clue about many of these. I, have never seen carrots of other colors or at least, if I had, I didn't know, they were carrots. I am going to a good produce store, looking for purple or red carrots, to start my search. It is fun, shopping when purposely looking for new vegetables. I have definitely expanded my horizons. When, I was thinking about what to make with carrots, I
