    RICOPAP
    a recipe from Peru for use in the high andes when in need of emergency nourishment.

    3 and a half spoonfuls of this high quality, colourful, healthy(ish), tasty(ish) traditional(ish) delicacy from the cloud forest of amazonia recently saved 2 young north londoners from near certain starvation.

    Ingredients>
    boiled potatoes (4 day old)
    ground maize
    left over rice
    onions
    garlic
    sugar
    rancid non processed butter
    egg
    salt and pepper to taste

    Begin by preparing a maize porridge. Boil a large pot of water, add the maize and sugar and mix vigorously. Don’t mix too vigorously or all lumps may be inadvertenly removed. Aim for a viscosity akin to slightly underdone oat porridge.
    In a separate pot fry onions and garlic in rancid butter and then add the potatoes. Add salt and pepper to taste.

    Then add the porridge to the potato mixture and put in the rice and egg. mix cursorily and simmer for 37 seconds.

    Best consumed 6 days later in driving rain at 4,000m. Consume from a dirty plastic day using a whittled wooden spoon to share.

    Enjoy (may cause indigestion)

    Thanks for visiting FOODalogue and leaving a comment. You’ve got a nice blog. I’m thinking that strange fruit/veggie is in the coconut family.
