Potatoes, cooked in turmeric?
I've frequently used turmeric in my healing 'journey' around 15 years ago. So I knew and know that it's very beneficial for the liver.
When my body (or liver) was still more able of regulation, and because of a difficult life situation, I sometimes bought a small pack of turmeric powder and just ate it, on the go (the whole thing). The bitter taste of it felt good and I had the strong sensation that it it did well for my liver.
I remember those times, but when I try this nowadays, turmeric makes me really hungry, so hungry that I start consuming carbs, but I was consuming carbs with gluten even, because I was graving it. So, I found this confusing, because in my mind, cooked carbs (not just the ones with gluten) were like a bad thing (Fruits are good, but all cooked carbs are bad, that was my mindset, before MM).
Thanks to MM, I fully embrace potatoes now, and the idea came to me to reintroduce more turmeric in my life again. And because I'm not so afraid of carbs anymore, I'm not conflicted that turmeric makes me grave carbs, maybe that's a good thing, that it does!
I'm really glad to reintroduce turmeric in my life again!
The very, very simple recipe:
- Put the peeled potatoes in a pot.
- Fill it to the half of the potatoes height, or the half of the upper layer of potatoes height, with water (I've read this in a cookbook, that the water does not need to cover the potatoes completely).
- Add, maybe a teaspoon, of turmeric powder or freshly grated turmeric to the water.
- Bring it up to heat and boil it for around 20 minutes (for me, it usually needs a little bit more (3-5 minutes) until they are really done at the core too.
