Dinner in the solar oven

Inspiration oh inspiration... Today, Anette and I went out in the garden and tasted the leaves of several Eden trees. The one we chose was fresh and slightly sour. When you cook food in the solar oven, you need to keep it a bit basic, so we mixed meat with tomatoes, carrots, onion, garlic, Eden leaves and spices. We put it out in the morning and at 1 p.m. it was ready! And we had fat-free, solar coooked dinner!

Solar cooker

Today I cooked millet in the solar oven for the first time, and guess what? Anette actually liked it! Millet has a strong taste (for being a cereal...) but once you get used to it, it gets hard to do without it... When I'm in Sweden, I always miss the Nigerien evening meal with solar cooked millet, milk and bananas (you wouldn't believe how much the taste down here!). It is probably no surprise that I was thrilled to have the solar oven in use and cooked millet on the table in the evening!
