a link and a quickie

First, the link. Isn't just the photo gorgeous? Sharing, working, community, intimacy, celebration - through food. It's my new ipad wallpaper.

Now, the quickie - I call it cheesy broccoli scramble:

Preheat a cast iron pan about medium on the stove. Cut in 1 head of broccoli, add a little water. Cook till green and lovely.

Meanwhile, combine 4 eggs and about 2/3 c cassava flour in a small bowl - best to first beat the eggs, then gradually add in the flour. Add a generous pinch of real salt, then grate in some cheddar to taste. Add a bit of pepper. Mix well.

Once the broccoli has cooked, add a bit of lard or ghee, let it coat the bottom of the pan, then add the egg batter. Let it cook, mixing and breaking apart with a wooden spoon every now and then, for about 5-10 minutes.

Enjoy hot. Serves one hungry woman and one hungry two-year-old (adjust as needed). Amazingly melt-in-your-mouth butterliciously good.

  1. This looks wonderful. I loved the pic too (hello, beautiful tattoos!). What gave you the idea to use cassava flour in a scramble? When I read the flour, I thought you were going to make a frittata of sorts.
