Almost meatballs:
400 g minced meat
dried or fresh sage
tarragon
2 garlic cloves
olive oil
salt
a few drops of chili sauce
The veggie stew:
small frozen green peas
ready-made lentils
butter
½ small red chili
½ red sweet pepper
salt
water
Jarlsberg cheese or other white firm cheese
The meaty stuff:
Heat the garlic, herbs and salt in the oil in a pan until
tender.
Put the whole package of minced meat into the pan and chop
it gently with a table knife, so that it forms small ”meatballs”.
Let it simmer slowly for at least 20 min.
The little veggie stew:
Melt the butter slowly.
Chop the chili and sweet pepper, put it into the pan and let
simmer until tender.
Add the peas, let simmer a little, then add the lentils.
Add some water, let it simmer until it turns into a sauce.
The last 5 minutes add the cheese, which blends almost neatly with the sauce, on top of the pan.
Serve with noodles.
If you’re a veggie, eat the stew, if you’re just basically a
veggie or not at all, eat it together. The meatstuff is not too exciting alone, but the stew is. They mix well.
