It&#8217;s a meal I created recently. It tasted very good and smelled like KFC gravy when it came off the burner.<\/p>\n<p>Ingredients<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Coconut oil (I&#8217;m not sure how much, I used what was left in the jar. Maybe 3 tbsp)<\/li>\n<li>Some potatoes (I used four or five?\u00a2\u201a\u00c7\u00a8\u201a\u00c4\u00f92-3 large ones and the rest were small)<\/li>\n<li>3\/4 of a large onion<\/li>\n<li>Some meat (I used 1\/2 lb of hamburger, but I bet chicken breast or shrimp would be even better)<\/li>\n<li>Some carrots (I used one honkin&#8217; one, and one average sized one)<\/li>\n<li>Pepper<\/li>\n<li>Salt<\/li>\n<li>Cumin<\/li>\n<li>Water<\/li>\n<li>Milk<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Directions<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Add enough coconut oil to cover the bottom of a large pot. Place the pot on medium heat.<\/li>\n<p><\/p>\n<li>Cut the potatoes into small cubes (maybe 1.5 squared cm). Place them in the pot and cook them, stirring occasionally.<\/li>\n<p><\/p>\n<li>Finely dice the onions. Do not mince them. Add them to the pot.<\/li>\n<p><\/p>\n<li>Add the meat to the pot.<\/li>\n<p><\/p>\n<li>Make sure you still stir frequently enough so nothing burns. It&#8217;s fine if there is some potato residue on the bottom of the pot. Just don&#8217;t let it burn, and try to scrape from time to time.<\/li>\n<p><\/p>\n<li>Dice the carrots. Add them to the pot.<\/li>\n<p><\/p>\n<li>Add enough water to cover the bottom of the pot in a couple of centimetres of water. Let sit for a few seconds and then stir so everything stuck to the bottom of the pot comes off.<\/li>\n<p><\/p>\n<li>Add enough freshly ground pepper so you can see the top of the mixture moderately covered in black flakes.<\/li>\n<p><\/p>\n<li>Sprinkle some salt over the top (Maybe 1\/2 tbsp).<\/li>\n<p><\/p>\n<li>Add a bunch of cumin. There should be a more abundant layer of cumin than there was pepper.<\/li>\n<p><\/p>\n<li>Stir so everything is combined.<\/li>\n<p><\/p>\n<li>Once stuff starts sticking again, add some milk. Add enough milk to add some texture, but not so much that it turns into stew.<\/li>\n<p><\/p>\n<li>Let sit on low heat until the milk thickens.<\/li>\n<p><\/p>\n<li>Serve in bowls or on plates. Buttered bread tastes good with this. I am sure shredded Havarti or grated Parmesan would taste great as well. So would garlic, but I had none with me.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Good for one Kim Siever meal or for 2-3 plates for 4 average eaters.<\/p>\n<div style=\"clear:both; padding-bottom: 0.25em;\"><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Here&#8217;s my first blog recipe.
