One final 100% Dutch meal before the trip!

When in Rome eat like a Roman.

Hence one final 100% Dutch meal to fill the engine before it will be flooded with the staple of Brazilian food:

Rice and Beans.

Now I happen to love rice and beans after Bianca introduced them to me so I'm not worried about the food.

But sometimes when you are in another country you do miss that good old home cooking.

And for me it's Dutch food.

And in this case: Potatoes with carrots, fried onions and bacon all mashed together with two meat-boulders and gravy.

O yeah!

That will put the cravings away for a while for sure!

Rice is beans is one of my most favorite meals.
The way my mum makes it.

Looks yummy @exyle. We usually mash potatoes with swede here, rather than carrot. I like the addition of onion and bacon though. 😁

That looks delicious, @exyle!! But anyway, in Brazil you won't have time to miss the good meat. The meat is also delicious and juicy there. But if you're dying to eat Dutch food, you can tell Bianca to cook some for you, so they know Dutch food there too. That trip promises great surprises! Greetings

Hi exyle. Never tried that and it actually looks kind of nice. Will look it up and give it a try. I like bubble and squeak so instead of cabbage you have carrots in the mash.

What a great idea. It looks delicious and I know it tasted delicious because you once made it for me also. I only miss the applesauce on top of it as you did when you were younger:)

Yeah, applesauce was the one thing I forgot to buy :'(

I’ve never heard of it but it looks good!

It sure is a real solid meal. Nothing sophisticated. Just hot and nice. Usually we make this in winter but I eat it all year round.

I plan to give it a try. Does it have a name?

Hutspot
Hutspot (Dutch), hochepot (French), or hotchpotch (English), is a dish of boiled and mashed potatoes, carrots, and onions with a long history in traditional Dutch cuisine.

well I'll be damned!

LOL! Sounds yummy! Nothing like home cooking especially comfort foods 😁 it's good you enjoy rice & beans! Morning noon and night!

That looks delicious. Did you cook that on a grill or in a pan ... or on a grill in a pan?

I cook the potatoes and carrots together in the pressure cooker and fry the bacon and onions separately then bring it all together. I do like to add a ton of mustard to the mix but that's what like and not everyone is a fan.

Excellent. I'm going to have to give this a try!

Wow. That looks delicious. I have never tried Dutch food like this before or any Dutch food really.
I also like rice and beans since my husband is from El Salvador and now I cook rice and beans and other El Salvadorian foods, but I still love my Polish cooking too.

OMG i was already hungry and this is amazing :D

Haha at first I thought you was holding up your new volcano project @exyle but now I can see its meat boulders rather then mountain boulders, haha I am sure you will eat more then just rice and beans there.

An excellent dish, my friend and you are right, before traveling to another country where there are always national dishes, want to eat something familiar, so to say, to enjoy the moment and you can start off, to meet new sensations, it's great. Well done! Thanks Mark

The burgers look really good. I like beans and I like rose a lot as well. I just never thought about mixing them together. I should try it next time.

That looks so good !

Enjoy your dutch meal @exyle

It sounds ( for me as a musician) very awesome and tasty

Blessings to you and your Family

Looks delicious. Have a good trip to brazil. The suit still fits, right? hahaha

It looks yummy!

Looking delicious food.. Also may be too yummy..

Oh, that looks so good @exyle. My family is German. Those patties on that plate remind me of frickadellen. I love traveling and having a chance to taste food from all over, but I too, have my dishes that are hard coded in my DNA.

Yum, that looks like you'll have to take a nap after eating, seem so filling!

A lot of europeans have potato based traditional meals which is somewhat ironic considering they are not native to europe :)

Looks delish! I had never thought of putting all of that extra stuff into the potatoes. Very interesting! The meat boulders looks exceptional!

I love this kind of food! Not great for the diet but, oh so tasty and filling! Mom's cooking! Brazilian cooking won't be good for Steemfat either, but what the heck! It is holiday time, wedding celebration time and family time! I am sure that Bianca's family will make sure you are well fed! How is your Portuguese by the way?

Awesome yummy meal you enjoyed looks really awesome this one :D
