Egyptian Cottage Cheese With Green Pepper and Baladi Bread
I live in a village in Egypt where there is a wide variety of healthy breakfast choices such as homemade dairy products and fresh vegetables that local farmers grow, and because I am also interested in food art, I decided to make use of Areesh cheese - Egyptian cottage cheese - and fresh veggies to make this savory Ice cream.
Supplies
- 150 gram of areesh cheese.
- 2 green peppers.
- 1 tiny red pepper.
- 1 green chili.
- 1 red chili.
- 1 green onion.
- 1 teaspoon of olive oil.
- 1 loaf of baladi bread.
- Salt.
- Some rocket leaves.
- Mortar and pestle.
- A knife.
- Scissors.
- A tablespoon.
- A fork.
The Green Ice Cream
To make our pistachio ice cream, I mean Areesh cheese with green pepper we should:
- Add one teaspoon of olive oil to the areesh cheese.
- Mix them well with a fork.
- Chop one green pepper, one green chili and rocket leaves into the Mortar and pestle.
- Add a pinch of salt to the veggies.
- Crush them well with the pestle until they are homogenous enough.
- Stir the mix with some Areesh cheese.
The Pink Ice Cream
It's so to dye the cheese in pink:
- Cut small pieces of beetroot on some areesh cheese.
- Mix them well until the cheese turns pink
- Remove the beetroot pieces.
Ice Cream Cone
To make the ice cream cone, we can use Egyptian flat bread, which is Known as baladi bread:
- Cut a triangle out of the round loaf.
- Cut it into two smaller triangles.
- Put them on top of each other.
Adding Ice Cream in the Cone
Now it's time to fill our cone with these savory ice cream scoops:
- Add a tablespoon of plain areesh cheese on the upper part of the bread.
- Add a larger amount of the green and the pink cheese respectively.
- Make the scoops look like they are melting on each other.
Cherry and Sprinkles
Finally, it's time for our ice cream toppings:
- Put a tiny red pepper on top.
- Chop the brown part of a green pepper into small rods.
- Sprinkle the pepper rods on the pink part of the cheese.
- Chop the green onion into round pieces.
- Add them to the cheese with green pepper.
Enjoy!
Now you can enjoy this extremely "healthy" and tasty ice cream as a breakfast without any guilt.
Bon Appetit!
