Yep. Perhaps not so great for people, but definitely not bad for biodiversity. 15 minutes ago, Jean said: Since we've decided that having our house taken away by a debris flow isn't such a fun experience, we tend to try and avoid these kind of events, Good call. 17 minutes ago, Jean said: forest gaining land over grassland, which wouldn't be bad per se if it wasn't for the fact that they're mainly populated by monospecies, like firs, which make it very vulnerable to change since they lack the diversity to be strong when submitted to hardship. True. But I feel like most of these trends are due to a rapidly changing climate and environment, rather than a natural evolution. In the long term a high bio diversity benefits all species, but in the short term it's all about survival of the fittest and that's where we are at now... Of course we need to protect the biodiversity that we have, but the reason why it needs protection in the first place is because we keep messing it up... 28 minutes ago, Jean said: Sorry, had to step in, this was such an appealing subject. No apologies! And it is indeed a very interesting subject. Just don't get me wrong, I do agree with you guys, my argument is more of a say philosophical one rather than a practical one.

Of course we need to protect the biodiversity that we have, but the reason why it needs protection in the first place is because we keep messing it up... Sure. We keep looking at things in the short term and failing to see the big picture, so we mess it up for ourselves and need a workout plan to get us back on trail (as a species). Our ancesters, not long ago, used to fight for survival : if you didn't take care of your land, your familiy wouldn't survive the winter. Now, we find food at the nearest convenience store and forget it doesn't just pop there. I was thinking of this because of meat : there are places where forests do not grow (high altitude or latitude), this is a natural space where (mountain) goats and other animals can strive but carrots would have a hard time to. Our ancesters used to cultivate and extend those and now, since we don't need it anymore, the forest is gaining back on it. Is it really a bad thing ? I guess many of us think it is due purely to ideology so I'm with you on it. My take is that I wish we'd be less lazy and put more of a focus on the essential things in life : growing food instead of apps so I would still like it better if we took better care of our grasslands.

But it also works in a normal pot. Quote 1 tbsp ghee or clarified butter 1 onion(s), finely chopped 250 g lentils, red 200 g canned tomato(s), in pieces, with juice 600 ml vegetable broth, well seasoned 1 tbsp tomato paste, optional ½ TL Turmeric, ground ¼ TL cumin, ground 1 small chilli pepper(s), dried and crumbled 1 teaspoon ginger, finely grated 1 clove/n garlic, pressed salt and pepper Coriander green, chopped First fry the onion pieces in the clarified butter on a low heat in a separate pan until translucent. Let the onions cool down a little and fill into the Crock Pot. Rinse the lentils in a household sieve with clear water and add to the onions. Now add the liquids and the spices. Mix everything well and cover. The stewing time on highest stage (HIGH) is about 2 hours or until the lentils are cooked and disintegrate. During the last 30 minutes you may stir the lentils. Season to taste with salt and pepper. To serve sprinkle with fresh coriander. Serve with rice and/or Naan bread as well as liquid (slightly sour) yoghurt. Translated with www.DeepL.com/Translator I used vegetarian onion flavoured clarified butter, more spices, no ginger, more garlic and no fresh coriander. Instead I put in 1/2 can chickpeas and 1 bundle of mangold. When you do it in a pot you just have to stir and wait until the lentils are cooked. Maybe about 30-60 mins? Not sure about that. The pizza was great (as always, we are there often) but the bowl was amazing! The parmesan cashew sauce and the hummus were a dream!

(Also the first time I tried store bought oat milk) But yeah, the coconut flavor of the yogurt was really good! And I like how creamy the yogurt was too I've tried this coconut quark before, but it's not nearly as good! The coconut taste is much "sharper", more artificial.

But it also works in a normal pot. I have a slow cooker, so that's no problem Red lentils usually cooks in about 20 minutes in a regular pot. I was wondering about the light colored squarish pieces in there, but I guess that's some really roughly chopped onion . I'd probably skip the chickpeas, but adding some greens is never a bad thing, so I might put some spinach in there! I was also curious about the light color of the dish. The dish in the photo on chefkoch.de is much more red in color. But it can be really difficult to get accurate colors of food on camera, so it might just be the lightening that is playing a trick I was really impressed with the automatic translation, so just for fun I wanted to compare it with Google's translation Quote First lightly fry the onion pieces in the clarified butter in a separate pan.
