Vegetarian Swedish "Pyttipanna"

Vegetarian Swedish \

This is a very easy Swedish recipe. Pyttipanna is usually made by what you can find in the fridge. Traditionally, it is made by fried diced meat (beef, bacon, sausage) and diced veggies like onions and potatoes. Well, it can be made by almost anything - sometimes I even add some fried apple to it. Here\'s a vegetarian version of pyttipanna. Serves 4.

Ingredients
3 large handfuls mixed wild mushrooms, like chanterells and funnel chanterells
2 parsnips, chopped in small dices
2 red onions, chopped
100 g sugar peas
400 g potatoes, peeled and chopped in small dices
salt and pepper
butter
rocket

4 eggs
crispbread

Method
1. Fry the raw potato and the parsnip in butter in a large frying pan, until soft.

2. Fry the mushrooms, onions and sugar peas in butter in another pan.

3. Mix the veggies together and season. (If you wish to have meat in your pyttipanna, all you have to is to fry chopped beef, bacon and/or sausage and add this to the veggies.)

4. Just before serving, mix the pyttipanna together with some rocket.

5. Pyttipanna is mostly served together with a fried egg. If you wish to, you can instead serve a raw eggyolk on top of the pyttipanna. It is also common to serve crispbread to pyttipanna.

Crisp apples are great fried. I diced some with cabbage to make a quick side. They add sweetness to food. Recipes like this are great because you can leave out the meat, like she did, and it is still good.

Actually J that's pretty harsh. It doesnt look grey but apples are often eaten warm aren't they? (Crumble, pie, even apple sauce sometimes) Also, it may be under veggie recipes and talk about meat, however, it is clearly stated the recipe given is veggie.
I do understand your comment though as a veggie it's not great to go onto a page and hear about meat but she has made an effort to give us a veggie recipe even if it doesnt look or sound great.
Maybe we should try it..
