When I used to think of my maternity leave, although I would have preferred to go to the office every day, I liked to fantasize about how much I could do with the whole day free.
I thought about how I embroidered, I could cook to distraction and try many new recipe that I could settle peacefully the prince's bedroom and all the gifts that have already received.
But enthusiasm for the kitchen lasted a few days, when I mixed the potato gnocchi, which I then froze, I did conchiglioni stuffed lasagne and cannelloni ... and then .. poof! gone.
Not to mention the desire to embroider, part of the charm of a hobby crop, including all commitments, Dedicarcisi for a while, but if you have all day available, it is not attractive!
And the bedroom? .. It took was a night with PO. And his
clothes? 2 washing machines and half a morning to iron ...
Well, let me say, maternity leave is a bored crazy!
Fortunately we almost reached the goal, missing less than two weeks to the expected date of childbirth.
I personally start to be impatient, a little tired, a little curious to see it.
Although I understand that this cold is not so much encouraged to come!
However, by the way of cold, last night my husband has "ordered" pasta and beans for lunch ... and I have tried ... especially as I have experienced amass the dumplings!
dumplings with beans and mushrooms (Serves 2)
For the gnocchi:
• 1 egg • 100 grams of flour
• 1 pinch of salt water as needed •
For the soup:
• 1 can of pinto beans
• a handful of mushrooms
• one slice of bacon, diced •
half a clove of garlic, shallot
•
• Parsley • Rosemary •
olive oil • Salt and pepper
• chili
Although traditionally the gnocchi to the pasta and beans are made with only flour and water, I have them mixed with the egg. With the mix I did a lot of balls that have spread so many snakes and then cut in the form of dumpling.
In the meantime I put the mushrooms to cook in a skillet with a teaspoon of oil, half a clove of garlic, salt, pepper and some parsley.
When the mushrooms have softened, I transferred everything into the pot, in which I put a spoonful of beans, bacon, shallots and rosemary.
I whipped around with the mixer and cook for 3 / 4 minutes on low heat. Then I
added strictly cold water, about 2 times the weight of pasta, beans and remaining.
I correct with salt and pepper, I added a teaspoon of oil, and let cook for about 10 minutes after the water began to boil.
And finally it was time for dumplings, I let it cook for 3 / 4 minutes after they had returned to the surface. In
dishes I added some fresh rosemary and a splash of oil, and in the PO some chili. Unfortunately I did not complete the picture of the dish: (
One last thing, thank you all, but really all the friends that are making me company during this period of black out from the internet and I apologize if I could not answer the mail ... unfortunately I can not read at home, but I will try to get back into the flush as soon as possible!
