Hello to everybody!
ReplyDeleteToday I’m going to prepare “fideuá” for my family. I’d like to invite you for lunch ... although on second thought ... I think that we would turn out to be too many people and I’d have to buy a lot of plates, forks, glasses ... chairs ... and a BIGGER HOUSE!!
So if you want to taste my “fideuá”, the only thing that I can do is giving you my recipe, hahaha ;-))
RECIPE FOR FIDEUA
Ingredients:
- olive oil
- 1 small chopped onion
- 3 cloves of chopped garlic
- a pinch of saffron or a bit of yellow food colouring
- 1 green pepper, sliced
- 1 red pepper, sliced
- a generous stream of white wine
- 5 peeled tomatoes
- tomato sauce
- hollow noodles
- water
- salt
- 1 kilo of sliced white fish
- 2 or 3 bay leaves and thyme
First heat some olive oil over medium heat in a large frying pan (paella). Add the garlic and sauté until light brown. Then add the onion and cook it until begins to become transparent. Add the peppers, a pinch of salt and cook a few minutes more. Now add the white wine and turn the heat up until the alcohol evaporates. Add the tomatoes and mix all well. Then add the tomato sauce and the food colouring. Now add the noodles and mix all well again for 1 minute. Now add the water and boil for 5 to 7 minutes more. Then add the fish, the bay leaves, the thyme and cook 10 to 15 minutes more.
That’s all. I hope that you like it.
Enjoy your meal!

ReplyDelete-Women worry more about their diet than men.
I don´t agree because i think nowadeys women care their phisical appeareance but men care also their phisical and often are very vain.

It depend, the western style life in general people are very busy almost always and they can´t make home- made food, but often use takeway food or ready meal and these foods can be with qualities.
-Men cook as a hobby, women cook because they have to.
Nowadays both men and women cook sometimes as a hobby and other times because they have to.
