However, the cod hooray hooray! I was a little reluctant to cook for its characteristic of being a little salty but then, after a day immersed in water, the salt has lost everything. its flavor wrapped in batter is very unique.

Bread ball with cheese surprise

Bread ball with cheese surprise

The receipe of today is born by chance, by the fact that I had advanced some grated  bread. I’m a bit inspired  to “Giorgione and kitchen garden”, a program of Gambero Rosso which I love! Maybe because it looks a bit like my kitchen, rich in vegetables, homemade and no frills. He is a very strong character, with his belly, his overalls who never gives up and his trays that remember those tose one my grandmother used! Hi.hi.hi. .. also my daughter loves him. One day he cooked breadballs  but a little different from what I propose today, a bit more complex.

Not throw anything away, here are these balls of bread with cheese surprise super tasty and delicious:

Chips of purple carrots

Chips of purple carrots imma3

Hello people!! Today I ‘m talking of food now! Today’s recipe is a winner.

Is the second time I bought  purple carrots, this year I’m looking for a lot of new vegetables that I’ve never cooked before, including these one! I stimulate the imagination! Then we are lovers of vegetables!
Recently, I was convinced that they were a cross between carrot and beet, however, thanks to dear Edvige Memento Solonico that there has always been a lots of superuseful information, I discovered that it’s a vegetable older than our carrots , which have a lot of qualities and a strong antioxidant! So that’s fine! Instead of anti-wrinkle creams … purple carrots!
The first time I bought it I made a puree but I was not impressed, so I have not posted it, this time I had the idea of cooking them as if they were potato chips,! just as we do when we make home fries with potatos and without deep fryer, the way home.

Let’s say that I do twice due at noon, but I have literally burned! oh yes it happens! I think you also Cracco little he burned something in his life! .. ahahahha …
I was too excited I have not given up and tonight I remade, among other things, we also decided to eat in a way a bit unusual, but I’ll tell you in the next episode, in order to avoid extensions.
Step straight to the recipe …

Have you ever thought to make polenta fried? It’s  phenomenal, one leads to another and the cooking is healthy because it’s in the oven!

  • salt to taste

Note
I did not put the amount because it depends on how much you have polenta the day before

As always we are fast! ahahahaha

If there was a tax on time would somehow, it seems that today is the most valuable asset!

Some time ago I saw an interesting film “Timeline,” you have you seen? Everyone was paying anything to survive over time. People had a bracelet on their wrist which measured everything, it was anchored at one and the unit of measure was just  time! Finished the AA arrangement was paid with the same life! hallucinating!

I do not like science fiction, but sometimes they make me think, do you remember “Star Trek”? when they spoke with the remote phones and two-way radios? think about where we are today with technology and it’s only been 20 years. Our phones are everything and if you want you can also see, just get the video! I’m waiting for teleport….ahahahah 🙂

The world runs, technology is running, time is running out … and we run? maybe too much!
