We don't have snow days here! Elementary schools cancel outdoor
recesses if the temp or the windchill is -35 or worse. Attendance is
optional at -40 but the doors stay open as many working parents
wouldn't be able to find a baby sitter on short notice and at least
half the kids will show up. Middle school and high school students
never catch a break.
Going through my fall beet and squash recipes I came across an
interesting South African dish that uses both of them:
MMMMM----- Recipe via Meal-Master (tm) v8.06
Title: Lesotho Beetroot, Orange And Pumpkin Sambal
Categories: African, Vegetables, Condiments
Yield: 2 quarts
800 g Cooked beetroot, peeled and
Diced
1 Cinnamon stick
450 g Pumpkin, peeled and finely
Grated
Finely-grated zest of
2 Oranges
1 tb Mustard powder
600 ml Malt (or red wine) vinegar
220 g Granulated sugar
1/2 ts Cayenne pepper
1 tb Curry powder
Like surrounding South Africa, Malay influences are quite strong
in Lesothan cuisine with spicy curries and chutneys.
Combine all the ingredients in a large pan and bring to a boil.
Reduce to a simmer, cover and cook for 30 minutes, stirring
occasionally. Allow to cool a little then spoon into sterilized jars
and seal. Allow to mature for at least 3 weeks before using. Store
in a cool, dry, place.
