NOVA SCOTIAN HODGE PODGE

Steps:

• Place the green beans, wax beans, carrots and turnips into a saucepan and add enough water to cover the vegetables. Lightly salt the water, and bring to a boil. Cook for about 1/2 hour, then add the potatoes and cook for another 1/2 hour. Stir in butter and if desired, cream.
• Mix together the flour and 1/2 cup water, and pour into the soup. Cook for a few more minutes to thicken. Remove from heat and serve hot.

PLOYE

Steps:

• Mix dry ingredients.
• Add 2 cups cold water to the dry ingredients and mix well.
• Let stand 5 minutes.
• Add 1 cup boiling water and mix vigorously.
• If batter looks too thick, add a little bit of cold water.
• Pour batter as you would a pancake in cast iron skillet (the best) or I have used a breakfast plate to cook mine (you can make more than one at a time) and they came out very good. Let the ploye cook, you will see little holes come up everywhere, the more holes, the better your ploye is.
• When you see that the mixture is not liquid anymore, your ploye is ready. Only cook on one side, a ploye is NOT to be turned to cook.
• To really have good Ployes you have to mix your batter between each ploye.
