One Pot Meal

Break-fast

It took me quite some figuring out how to beat the constipation of camping food after I started wholesome healthy home grown food diet.

Pots and Pans, who needs what, and when?

I realize I have become a bit of a nerd if it comes to the right pot for cooking in every situation. I must even admit that it is nice to buy new titanium cooking gear. Such buying gives pleasure to a trip long before I actually get on a tour. But now, I have enough. Really. And that’s why I share this post: who needs what and when? Yet, nothing so personal as one’s kitchen.

Filling and delicious 1 pot meal

I choose rice over pasta. I had my share of pasta while cycling South America, and am fed up with it up to this day. Any rice is fine and if I can get my hands on wild or brown rice, I use that.

For this recipe in particular, you need:

  • rice
  • mushrooms (any kind will do)
  • asparagus (preferable green)
  • some fresh tomatoes or paste (from a tin or tube/without sugar content)
  • dried tomatoes (which I carry standard)
  • dried herbs, pepper and salt
  • Parmesan

Bring a pot of water to the boil in which you have placed the rice. The rice should be about 1.5 centimeter below the water, this way it will boil dry.

While the rice is softly boiling, cut the asparagus and mushrooms. Slice the dried tomatoes and add these to the pot of rice.

When the rice is nearly done, add the asparagus, Parmesan tomatoes and/or -paste. Add salt, pepper and dried herbs. At last, add the mushrooms. Give everything a good stir and the dish is ready to be eaten.
