Guest guest Posted March 16, 2010 Report Share Posted March 16, 2010 I love to read cookbooks and I am sure I'm not alone in reading recipes looking for things that are SCD legal. Well, I have found an interesting sounding one and want to ask about a substitution. This is from an old Woman's Day encyclopedia of cooking, 1966. Volume 6, page 939 Soowar Ka Gosht Vindaloo (Sour Pork Curry) 2 lbs lean pork, cut into 3/4 inch cubes 1/2 cup vinegar 4 medium onions, chopped 1 tablespoon minced ginger (or 1.5 teaspons powdered) 1 tablespoon mustard seed 1 teaspoon ground turmeric 1/2 teaspoon cayenne 1/4 cup oil 1 cup chicken broth 1 cauliflower (instead of Illegal: 6 potatoes) marinate meat in vinegar, onions, garlic and seasonings for at least 2 hours. Place in casserole with oil and broth. Cook over medium heat for 30 minutes. Add cauliflower (potatoes) and cook covered, another 30 minutes until everything is well done and tender. Add more broth if necessary. serves 6 OK, obviously we need something else besides the potatoes so that's why I thought of cauliflower. But I haven't tried it yet. I need a few opinions on whether this would work, cooking-wise, and also flavor-wise. I think the basic stew sounds delicious though for myself I'd have to leave a couple of seasonings off. I suppose I could make it just as the meat and flavorings, too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted March 16, 2010 Report Share Posted March 16, 2010 Hi , Regarding your pork recipe, how about using cubed butternut squash? That's become my new favorite subsitute for potatoes - and I'm a potato girl (could live on them!) of German descent married to an Irishman!

Guest guest Posted March 16, 2010 Report Share Posted March 16, 2010 ,The cauliflower would work, but I wouldn't cook it for 30 minutes. Another good substitute is celeriac.

Guest guest Posted March 16, 2010 Report Share Posted March 16, 2010 I like yellow squash and it holds up well when you cook it for a long time. Not sure it'd replace potatoes for other people but I usually use it when something calls for them.  Debbie houston cd  ,The cauliflower would work, but I wouldn't cook it for 30 minutes. Another good substitute is celeriac. Amelia To: BTVC-SCD Sent: Tue, March 16, 2010 6:02:29 PMSubject: Recipe Question I love to read cookbooks and I am sure I'm not alone in reading recipes looking for things that are SCD legal.

Guest guest Posted March 16, 2010 Report Share Posted March 16, 2010 Amelia, Darlene, Thanks for the ideas of celeriac and squash in the stew. I think both would work better than cauliflower (which I love). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted March 16, 2010 Report Share Posted March 16, 2010 Thanks, yellow squash sounds good, too. Most of the time I don't have to worry about anyone but myself in this. I know I'm lucky! I like yellow squash and it holds up well when you cook it for a long time. Not sure it'd replace potatoes for other people but I usually use it when something calls for them.
