    Ecuador

    28 ноября 2017 г., Эквадор ⋅ ⛅ 16 °C

    I intend to enjoy Dimitri, Louis and Eyob's trip just as much if not more than them by sampling South American culture in the comfort of my own home.

    My tools will be YouTube and the kitchen. I will post any interesting clips I find, South American movie recommendations and photos of the food I cook and share.

    Dimitri has also entrusted me with the bonsai he received for his 21st. I may post photos of its progress too.

    Ecuador Catch Up - Seafood Curry

    29 ноября 2017 г., Новая Зеландия ⋅ ☁️ 16 °C

    The adventure started a few days ago but the blog is starting now so I have some catch up to attend to.

    The day after the boys left I made fish fillet with seafood curry. Delicious!

    See how the professionals plate it in the link below

    Ecuador Catch Up - Ceviche

    29 ноября 2017 г., Новая Зеландия ⋅ ⛅ 19 °C

    Next day I made the ceviche. This seems to feature on all lists of Ecuadorian foods. Couldn't find grits so we had it on brown rice.
    Another hit!

    Ratas, Ratones, Rateros

    29 ноября 2017 г., Новая Зеландия ⋅ ⛅ 19 °C

    This gritty Ecuadorian movie appears on a number of recommendation lists. A bit of a "Once were Warriors". Watched it on YouTube

    Que Tan Lejos

    29 ноября 2017 г., Эквадор ⋅ ☁️ 15 °C

    Left over chicken with rice tonight.
    Watched another Ecuadorian movie "Que Tan Lejos". A road trip movie with two women. The first named Hope, a tourist from Barcelona and the second Sadness a local girl. Interesting to see the country side and temperament of the people.

    Shrimp Ceviche

    Adios Ecuador

    30 ноября 2017 г., Эквадор ⋅ ☀️ 29 °C

    The boys will be flying out of Ecuador in a couple of hours so I made a farewell meal for Dimitra and myself: Shrimp Ceviche with accompaniments.

    Unfortunately, I remembered too late that Dimitra has an end of year do at school. I think they are sharing a sausage rolls in the staff room. Oh well.

    Colombian Steak and Chimichurri

    1 декабря 2017 г., Колумбия ⋅ ⛅ 12 °C

    Those of you following the "other" blog will know the boys are in Bogota Colombia now. I was about to throw the left over Ecuadorian food in the bin and start on my Colombian recipes when I realised Dimitra had not tried the ceviche with banana chips. I bought proper green bananas from PacNSave and made far better chips.

    Photos from the combined Ecuadorian / Colombian meal below.

    Bonsai Report

    3 декабря 2017 г., Новая Зеландия ⋅ ⛅ 20 °C

    Dear Dimitri
    The Bonsai and I are getting along fine. Comparing this week's photo with the first photo I see little cause for concern.

    Watered it today.

    Colombian Mince and Chickpeas

    2 декабря 2017 г., Колумбия ⋅ ☁️ 0 °C

    Sounds simple but really quite delicious.

    Dimitra has been gardening and does not feel like being photographed today; Theo cannot be photographed any day so the dishes will have to present themselves.

    Also watched a rather sobering documentary about Bogota's "model" prison.

    Colombian Arepa

    2 декабря 2017 г., Колумбия ⋅ ⛅ 11 °C

    Spent the morning hunting high and low for mesarepa to make Colombian Arepa with. Finally found some at Moore Wilson. It was the last bag and it had a hole in it but I took it anyway.
    Aunt Dina came for lunch and enjoyed the meaty dish.

    ПутешественникI eat more fish tan meat so don't where my nephew got the idea I eat meat. As a matter of fact I have Salmo 3 times a week with veggies and I alternate with other kind of fish. Never believe rumours.

    ПутешественникThat's right Maria, I am. Obviously my nephew hasn't got a good memory. I told him how much I enjoyed the things he had made for the lunch but I did not rave over his under cooked meat.

    Peruvian Lomo Saltado

    8 декабря 2017 г., Перу ⋅ 🌙 17 °C

    I was disappointed to read Louis bemoaning the quality of the food they have been eating. Fortunately that has not been the case here. Boys, if you get the chance, try Lomo Saltado its delicious.

    Another night eating alone. I invited my Aunt but she preferred to go home and gnaw on a boiled chicken leg. Theo left as I came home. Dimitra is savoring PacNSave sausages at the school end of year BBQ.

    Some people may be tempted to leave it for another night or cut down the quantities but not me.

    Peruvian Aji de Gallina

    9 декабря 2017 г., Перу ⋅ ☀️ 19 °C

    Chicken stew with walnuts and Parmesan. Like bacon and chocolate (not together), Parmesan makes everything taste better.

    Great meal with company this time (Maria, Aliki, Dimitra and even Theo). Some of yesterday's leftovers on the table as well.

    Peruvian Heart Attack Salad

    11 декабря 2017 г., Перу ⋅ ⛅ 18 °C

    "Papas a la Huancaina" fools you into thinking you are eating a healthy salad however the dairy content of the delicious sauce could easily close your arteries.

    I have never used a blender as often as I have while making south american meals. I hope those porters catering for the boys have one in their rucksack on the Inka Trail.

    Peruvian Leftovers

    13 декабря 2017 г., Перу ⋅ ⛅ 20 °C

    // Written with close supervision from my Aunt

    Dimitra is overnighting at Somes Island so Aunt Dina came to complain of Dimitri's lack of response to her epistoles. I softened her stance by feeding her the delicious Peruvian leftovers and now that her tummy is full she is as happy as Larry.

    // This is the point the keyboard was wrestled away from me.

    Dimitri you may have have gone to the exotic Islands of the Galapagos but equally we have Somes Island that we don't even have to change into any foreign currency so we can visit. I think your mother and other teachers from the Montessori school have taken pupils there. They are teaching the young ones to make sure they see home before you leave the country. It's an old slogan from way back we used to see on TV.

    You never talk about the weather but we will. We have been having almost Mediterranean weather which is far too hot for us. And now it's raining and it's more Wellington weather.

    Chorus came up Phoenix Way to dig to put the fiber in and they made a mess so today their inspector came to see the mess they made and will come later to fix it. Also they scoped out the job which they will start tomorrow. So by the time you get back I shall have fiber. I hope it will be alright coz a friend of mine tells me things can go wrong with it.

    Afta yia tora and no more because you never answer any of my questions nor comment on the news I tell you.

    Keep enjoying yourself with your mates and don't forget to take lots of pictures of Machu Pichu.

    Aunty Dina

    ПутешественникForgot to say Dimitri, your father has become a great chef. His South American dishes are wonderful. I hope he goes on cooking then then I can have the leftovers.

    Peruvian Butter Chicken

    15 декабря 2017 г., Перу ⋅ ☀️ 22 °C

    Peruvian Garlic Chicken was a bit like a South American version of Butter Chicken due to the yogurt sauce. Very nice. I couldn't disagree more with Cathy_20 who posted "I cooked this just how it was described but I really didn't like it. The ingredients just didn't blend well." and gave it only one star on the www.geniusjitchen.com site.

    The Quinoa and Asparagus was also nice even though I added the Parmesan too early and it became a sticky mess at the bottom of the pot.

    I'm looking forward to the boys being back online tomorrow and getting an update from the real travelers.

    This dish is intended for a whole butterflied chicken but we made do with chicken pieces. Great meal for the BBQ and al fresco dining in our holiday digs here at Raumati.

    The difference was the tangy green sauce which I ended up coating everything with: chicken, roast potato, courgettes, salad and bread.

    I've only just noticed the beautiful illustration on the side of the pot depicting Mt Fuji. It makes me nostalgic for our trip earlier this year.Читать далее

    The Volcanos of Peru

    21 декабря 2017 г., Новая Зеландия ⋅ ☀️ 18 °C

    Spent the evening in the sub tropical paradise that is Levin. Visited Maria, mercina and Poppy. Built up an appetite with a pre dinner drive. Enjoyed a lovely dinner of deconstructed souvlakia followed by the Peruvian volcano cake expertly crafted by Poppy. Concluded the evening with banter and witty repartee.Читать далее
