Method
Tips
- Why it works
- Stew the vegetables under a lid so they soften evenly and don't burn. If you have no lid, add 20 ml of water.
- Substitutions
- Replace the sugar with 5 ml of honey for a softer taste, or add 10 g of seedless raisins for sweetness. Use 50 g of onion if it's a sharp one.
- Common mistakes
- If the caviar tastes bitter, add the vinegar after stewing, not at the start. Taste it after 1 minute of heating.
- Storing and reheating
- Keeps for 5 days in the fridge. Reheat over low heat with 10 ml of water, stirring, to 70°C.
- Serve with
- Serve with a slice of rye bread toasted in a toaster, or spread it on a sandwich with cheese.
In short
- Marked healthy: the planner picks it more often for the goals “lose weight” and “eat well”.
