For the love of food: cooking it, looking at it, smelling it, even listening to it and above all tasting it… I am a London-based blogger aiming to bring you recipes, restaurant reviews, travel tales and all things food-related.
No longer content with harassing my friends with the everyday experiences of my tastebuds, I decided to start blogging about the joys of eating. Enjoy and let me know what you think.

RICOPAP
a recipe from Peru for use in the high andes when in need of emergency nourishment.
3 and a half spoonfuls of this high quality, colourful, healthy(ish), tasty(ish) traditional(ish) delicacy from the cloud forest of amazonia recently saved 2 young north londoners from near certain starvation.
Ingredients>
boiled potatoes (4 day old)
ground maize
left over rice
onions
garlic
sugar
rancid non processed butter
egg
salt and pepper to taste
Begin by preparing a maize porridge. Boil a large pot of water, add the maize and sugar and mix vigorously. Don’t mix too vigorously or all lumps may be inadvertenly removed. Aim for a viscosity akin to slightly underdone oat porridge.
In a separate pot fry onions and garlic in rancid butter and then add the potatoes. Add salt and pepper to taste.
Then add the porridge to the potato mixture and put in the rice and egg. mix cursorily and simmer for 37 seconds.
Best consumed 6 days later in driving rain at 4,000m. Consume from a dirty plastic day using a whittled wooden spoon to share.
Enjoy (may cause indigestion)
Wow, that sounds amazingly disgusting. How is the amazonian rain forest treating you? xx
Nick!
It’s time to come home.

Thanks for visiting FOODalogue and leaving a comment. You’ve got a nice blog. I’m thinking that strange fruit/veggie is in the coconut family.
