Creamy black bean and fettuccine

I knew the ingredients I could get and I had some ideas and I was inspired by recipes I found online. I cut up a small carrot into small chunks, two cloves of garlic and then one leaf shadon beni, some celery and some parsley. I drained and rinsed a can of black beans. I started my pot and added some kerrygold butter and golden ray butter. I added the garlic and fresh seasoning. I added the carrots and some Italian seasoning (oregano, rosemary, thyme, tarragon, savory, basil and sage). Then some black pepper. Saute nicely. Then add enough water to cook down the fettuccine which was about half a pack. I broke the fettuccine into thirds. I then added a small pack of coconut cream. Takes about 12 minutes to cook down. I served it with parmesan cheese on top.

Quick One Pot Pelau

My mom wanted to do the cooking today. We used what was left of the chow mein ingredients and added chicken, rice, pimento, coconut milk, butter and seasoning. Wash the rice. Rinse the cut up veges. The chicken was already cleaned and seasoned and in pieces from the freezer and just had to thaw somewhat. Pelau is a simple and quick one pot meal. Simply stew the chicken, add ketchup and all the ingredients. Flavor wise I prefer a medium brown pelau and in between dry and wet. Pelau goes well with avocado, cole slaw or green salad. Golden Ray butter is nice but we had none plus we are trying to eat less salt. I like brown rice or I would try couscous if I had those to make it healthier.

Tropical Banana Pudding

This works best with overripe bananas but just ripe bananas will work too. When the banana is overripe, the taste and consistency is like a barbadine drink. Simply place the banana in some milk and use a fork to break apart the banana. The consistency should be lumpy. You can then add coffee or flax seed powder or walnuts or any sort of healthy addition that you like. In the photo I did not have overripe bananas that day.

Roasted Baigan with Caramelised Onions

This is done the same way as baigan choka except I cut up and caramalise a whole onion with as many cloves of garlic as you would like.
