#REDFRIDAY : Pomme D'amour - The most used vegetable in Mauritian Cuisine! 25% Post Payouts set to @steemit-ironchef!
Greetings of the day SIC Community!
As promised yesterday, here I am with an example of a good #foodcolorchallenge post - This is just an idea of what I am expecting from the participants in our newly launched daily challenge!
Let's make it fun and make others learn more on fruits and vegetables around the world!
Today is Friday and Friday is RED in SIC!!!
Tomatoes are one of the most used vegetable in the whole world and in my country it is not the big tomatoes that we use mostly...
The variety that is most loved by all Mauritians is called Pomme D'amour!
They are quite same as Roma Tomatoes but taste different - They are not that sweet in taste!
Mostly used in curries and stews, when they are not available (due to cyclones destroying crops), all people of Mauritians are very unhappy...
Quite small is size, but they give amazing taste in your dishes! The longer you cook pomme d'amour...the better the taste!
At my place and even at my restaurant, this product must always be there...
Actually I am quite lucky...my brother in law plant these very often, so most of the time I get them for free to use!
Pomme d'amour salad is also a very popular classic in Mauritian cuisine...
We simply cut the pomme d'amour in small brunoise and add chopped onions/chili/coriander to it!
Season with salt, pepper, olive oil and little vinegar, your salad is ready!
Below is a photo from the pomme d'amour greenhouse of my brother in law! I always have so much fun walking around and taking photos of these beauties!
So here we are friends, my first ever participation in the food color challenge organized in the SIC Community!
I hope you've enjoyed this one!
Wish you all a great day/evening ahead!
Looking forward to discover your red entry for the REDFRIDAY Challenge!!!
Thanks!
