Try and use fresh loorberilehte. Canned loorberilehte doesn’t taste as good.
And you know what happens when you don’t wash your basiilikut before cooking.
I like to wash down my Kanatšahhohbili with a can of ice cold, refreshing crab juice.
Here is a translation of the recipe from this english version of that blog:
500 grams chicken breast fillets, cut into large chunks
2 Tbsp sunflower oil
2 chopped large onions
1 chopped garlic clove
400 grams chopped tomatoes (or couple of peeled fresh tomatoes)
100 ml fresh chicken stock
100 ml medium-bodied red wine
2 bay leaves
1 tsp turmeric
1 tsp chilli flakes
1 tsp crushed coriander seeds
1 tsp crushed fenugreek seeds (optional)
salt and black pepper
a very generous cupful of fresh herbs (CORIANDER/CILANTRO, TARRAGON, mint, basil, dill, parsley - it MUST include the herbs in capital letters, otherwise it’s not even remotely authentic. I used the whole lot apart from mint.)
Heat the oil in a thick saucepan. Add chicken and fry on a medium heat until slightly browned all over.
Add onions, stir for a few minutes. Add garlic and saute, until onion has softened a little.
Add the chilli flakes, coriander and fenugreek*, stir for a few seconds to release aromas. Add tomatoes, fresh chicken stock and wine together with bay leaves. Season. Bring to a simmer, cover the saucepan with a lid and cook for 30-45 minutes (or more, if you wish), stirring every now and then, until the sauce is reduced to a thick glossy sauce.
Remove the bay leaves and add the fresh herbs. Stir and cover for 10 minutes, so the flavours can infuse. Season again, if necessary.
Serve with boiled rice or potatoes, garnish with lemon slices.
From what I’ve read about Hitler, he was a vegetarian in a “loose” sense – no cite handy, but I remember those around him saying that he ate meat from time to time, generally “simple” foods. One I remember being mentioned more than once was liver dumpling soup.
Oh, and (as someone said above), he apparently had a sweet tooth. Pastries and all that.
(Looking through cupboard)…dammit! Happens every time, you’ve got everything but the kollajuurt ehk kurkumit!
Yeah, I always end up farting like Hitler.
In this case, you’d be farting like Stalin.
I think we’ve signed various international agreements against assassinating other nation’s leaders.
I’m not sure that’s correct - my understanding is that the chief legal instrument barring us from employing assassination as a tool of statecraft is Executive Order 12333. As with any executive order, any president can rescind or modify that order at will.
So yah, the snack plan can be a go as soon as the President signs off on it.
The New Yorker, in 1936, noted that Hitler was very fond of Brennsuppe, a Bavarian porridge with onion and caraway and laced liberally with lard.
The old fuck wasn’t the teetotaler they made him out to be, either. He drank moderate amounts of lager, which of course can soothe indigestion.
