I realize the name of this blog is Thursday dinner but now that Anthony is out of school we are no longer restricted to Thursday in order to have delicious food. This week we rented the Road. Wow what an intensely stressful movie. On a different note this week I made a potato spinach curry with Fava beans. Let me tell you a little about Fava beans, what a pain in the butt! First you have to take out all of the beans from the pods, then you have to blanch those, then you have to peel this waxy outer skin to finally get to the edible portion of the bean. I probably wouldn't grow this much of a hassle next time. Though if the Fava beans were the highlight of the dish it would be worth the effort. Just in a curry though the effort was not worth it. In addition to the curry for dinner Anthony made some collard green wraps. The stuffing was a pizza based stuffing that had tomatoes, fennel seed, oregano, etc in it. To compliment the wrap he made a dipping sauce consisting of cashews, water, avocado, and some spices. Wonderful!!
For dessert Sean made sweet potato scones that turned out great!! Unfortunately I do not have any pictures of those.
