Stuffed Potato Balls With Yellow White Lentil Soup And Choorm Recipes

Steps:

• Mix together the hot mashed potatoes, eggs, butter and 2 teaspoons of cornstarch. Set aside and let cool.
• In a frying pan, heat the olive oil. Add the ground beef and cook until no longer pink. Stir to break up the meat.
• Add the sofrito, tomato sauce, oregano and salt to the cooked ground beef. Mix thoroughly. Turn the heat to low and simmer for 30 minutes. Remove from heat and allow to cool.
• Spread a spoonful of the potato dough mix in the palm of your hand. Make an indentation in the middle and stuff it with the meat mixture.
• Cover the filling with more potato dough. Shape into a ball. Dust the ball lightly with the remaining cornstarch.
• Repeat until mix is used up.
• Deep fry the stuffed potato balls until golden (about 2 minutes).
• Remove and drain on paper towels.
• Servings: Makes 12 to 16 potato balls.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Prick the potatoes with a fork and microwave until tender, 15 to 20 minutes. Transfer to the oven rack and bake until soft, about 15 minutes.
• Meanwhile, finely chop the red onion. Put 2 tablespoons chopped onion in a small bowl; cover with cold water and let soak 10 minutes. Drain, pat dry and set aside for topping. Chop the poblano and grate the carrot.
• Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the remaining red onion, the poblano and carrot; season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until tender, about 5 minutes. Stir in the lentils, chili powder and cumin; cook until the spices are toasted, about 1 minute. Add the tomato paste and cook, stirring, until the vegetables are coated. Stir in the tomatoes and their juices, 1 1/2 cups water and a large pinch of salt. Simmer, stirring occasionally, until thickened slightly, about 10 minutes.
• Split the potatoes open. Drizzle with the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Fluff the flesh with a fork. Sprinkle with half the cheese, then top with the chili. Sprinkle with the remaining cheese and the reserved red onion.

Steps:

• Heat olive oil in a large saucepan over medium-high heat. Add onion and mushroom; cook until tender, about 3 minutes. Stir in potato, lentils, garlic, parsley, fennel greens, salt, ground black pepper, cayenne pepper, and turmeric. Pour in water; stir to mix. Turn heat to medium-low and simmer until flavors are combined, about 45 minutes.

Steps:

• Roll into 24 small balls.

Steps:

• Simply place all the ingredients, except the lemon juice, into a pot and let them boil until the lentils are well cooked.
• Some people prefer to smoothen this with a blender while others like to still see the lentils, so this part is up to you.
• Add the lemon juice just before serving.
• (I have met people who prefer the soup without the lemon juice, so you might want to try it out on a small portion first to see which way you like best).
• For Vegetarian option use Vegetable broth.

Steps:

• In a large saucepan, cover potatoes with water and cook.
