You GOTTA try THIS!!!
Because I said sO It's called Himmel Und Erde--- German for Heaven and Earth, and our first recipe from AWOA curriculum in the mini unit about the reformation in Germany.
It's yummy!
4 medium potatoes- cut into cubes
2 granny smith apples sliced
one onion- sliced
1 lb bacon ( or if you are vegan or Kosher- use your favorite substitute) cooked and chopped
1 tbs salt
1tbs sugar
1teaspoon nutmeg
water
2 tbs butter
OK- you can see by the ingredients that it is a comfort food- NOT a health food- moderation!
Boil apples, potatoes salt, and sugar in about 1 inch of water unti tender. Drain. Saute onions in bacon grease or your choice of oil/butter until tender, drain. Combine apples, potatoes, bacon, onions, butter and nutmeg and stir gently. Serve.
I had no idea that it would taste the way it does. I think that I would change the recipe in 2 ways- I would cut the apples and potatoes to the same size and also add some freshly ground black pepper- but other than that,, I can say that this dish is very tasty!
The older kids, who are picky were not impressed ( Trinity does not like potatoes- need I say more?) Harley ate the ingredients after seperating them on his plate and scorned the onions. I liked it, and Raymond almost didn't get seconds because Rowan was begging for a third helping....
