More meals to cook = more chances to explore. I cook more quiche as we spend more time in Ohara, I also cook more steam buns and gyoza, also one dish that has been an almost weekly thing is brown rice and spicy vegetables. As much I love Japanese brown rice, it takes too much time to cook it after coming back from work and have it ready for dinner (about 2 to 3h) so I would almost never make any. Working from home as this perk that starting a recipe is really simple, squeezed between two meetings. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For some reason Thursday is the day we most often have brown rice. And one thing I really love is to have it with some seasonal vegetables and a light spicy sauce. Versions are endless. And with the spring coming and the new vegetables I prepared a very simple and ultra full of flavors version. A few chick peas remaining from the hummus I made the other day, a bit of coconut cream, and a lot of new and fresh onions that our friends gave us. Add some super ripe tomatoes and, because winter is still not completely gone, a sweet potato, you have a great base. Normally I would have added curry to the mixture, but curry powder is on my shopping list and I didn&#8217;t have time to go grocery shopping this week. And actually it was good that way. It forced me to explore other spice combination and I realize that curry is not necessary. So if you want a very mild and  very tasty recipe for your new onions and your brown rice, just read below and enjoy!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>New onions with spice and coconut milk<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>2-3 new onions<\/li><li>1 sweet potato (one carrot could do, nothing could do too)<\/li><li>1 large and ripe tomato (if you can&#8217;t find one just do without)<\/li><li>200ml of coconut cream or coconut milk<\/li><li>1 cup of chick peas, boiled and drained<\/li><li>1tsp of ground cardamom<\/li><li>1tsp of turmeric<\/li><li>1\/2tsp of all spice<\/li><li>1\/2tsp of ground cumin<\/li><li>1\/2tsp of salt<\/li><li>ground black pepper<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Remove one layer of onion skin and cut them in 8. Wash and cut the vegetables in bite size.<br>In a greased pan, on medium heat, put all the vegetables, and the chick peas, and cook for 10min while stirring regularly. <br>Add the coconut cream, the spices and stir well. Cook under cover for 5min. And that&#8217;s ready. Serve with brown rice, but I bet it is also a killer with flat breads or basmati rice.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Since we&#8217;ve been working from home, I cook three to four meals a day (we wouldn&#8217;t miss a good tea time!) and a whole new routine of recipes slowly replaced old habits.
