Breaded and Fried Protein

Start by choosing a protein base - chicken, fish, or a suitable vegetarian meat substitute. Coat your chosen protein in a mixture of flour, beaten eggs, and breadcrumbs, then deep-fry until golden brown. This process gives the protein a crispy exterior and a tender, juicy interior.

Mixed Vegetable Stew

To prepare the vegetable stew, start by sautΓ©ing chopped onions, garlic, and any other preferred aromatics in some olive oil. Add chunks of carrots, peas, and any other desired vegetables, along with canned tomatoes and their juices for the base. Season with herbs like thyme, rosemary, and a touch of chili flakes for heat. Simmer until the vegetables are tender and the sauce has thickened.

Creamy Mashed Potatoes

For the mashed potatoes, boil peeled and chopped potatoes until tender. Drain and mash the potatoes, then incorporate butter, milk or cream, and seasoning to taste. For a richer flavor, consider adding a touch of garlic or cheese. The result is a smooth, creamy side that complements the other components of the meal.
