Carrots As A Substitute For Tomatoes by Diekola17(f): 5:40pm On Jun 04, 2016
https://m.facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=810109422424341&id= Hello Gourmets,
The fact that the price of tomatoes has become highly inflated is no longer news. What is news however, is that carrots can be substituted for the almighty tomatoes. (Are you serious) Yes o. As serious as a heart attack. The first time I heard about this was on Facebook page. A girl saying she made carrot stew. So, out of curiosity, I decided to give it a shot. The taste, Divine was the best synonym I could come up with. So, before I go ahead telling you how to prepare this special stew, I'll like to elucidate on the nutrional benefits of carrots. * It prevents cancer * It aids digestion (cos it's a vegetable) *Improves eyesight *Reduces the risk of stroke *Boosts the immune system and Reduces blood pressure among others OK. So, let's get to business. The condiments needed for this amazing stew include; * Cooking oil, preferably vegetable oil. * Diced onions * Blended rodo/pepper * Diced carrots * A sachet of tomatoes puree * Maggi, salt, (Curry ) * Chicken/Fish/ Beef METHOD Heat the veg. Oil for a while, add the diced onion and stir continually till it's well fried. Max 1 minute. The tomato puree comes in next. Stir until it is deeply fried. Add the blended rodo and keep stirring. Add a little water as you stir. Let it fry for a while. Then add the diced carrots and stir well with the sauce in the pot. Add seasoning ie, maggi, salt, ginger, garlic and a little curry. Then add your Fish or Beef or whatever it is you want to garnish it with. Leave for two minutes and your Delicious Carrot stew is ready. It goes well with Rice, Macaroni, Spaghetti, Couscous or Yam. Enjoy.
