Today’s Unique Recipe: Cinnamon-Spiced Savory Pudding

Hello, fellow foodies! Today I am excited to share with you a truly unique and unexpected dish that combines the warmth of cinnamon with savory flavors. This recipe was inspired by the cozy vibes of the holiday season and my love for experimenting with unconventional ingredient pairings.

For this Cinnamon-Spiced Savory Pudding, you will need the following ingredients:

• 150g yellow split peas
• 1 medium carrot, grated
• 1 small onion, finely chopped
• 1 tsp ground cinnamon
• 1/2 tsp ground cumin
• 500ml vegetable broth
• to taste
• to taste
• 2 tbsp olive oil

To bring this unique dish to life, you will need the following kitchen tools:

• saucepan
• wooden spoon
• grater
• knife

Start by heating olive oil in a saucepan over medium heat. Add the chopped onions and grated carrot, cooking until softened. Next, stir in the ground cinnamon and cumin, allowing the spices to become fragrant.

Add the yellow split peas and vegetable broth to the saucepan. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to a simmer. Let the pudding cook uncovered for about 30-40 minutes, or until the split peas are tender and the liquid has been absorbed. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.

Once the pudding reaches a thick consistency, season with salt and black pepper to taste. Feel free to adjust the spices to your preference, adding more cinnamon for a bolder flavor or cumin for a smokier profile.

Serve the Cinnamon-Spiced Savory Pudding warm as a comforting side dish or a unique main course. The warm, earthy flavors of the split peas and spices pair wonderfully with a variety of proteins or roasted vegetables.

This recipe yields approximately 4 servings, with each serving weighing around 200g. One serving of this hearty Cinnamon-Spiced Savory Pudding is estimated to contain around 250 calories.

A clever tip for this recipe is to garnish the pudding with a dollop of tangy yogurt or a sprinkle of fresh herbs like parsley or cilantro. The coolness of the yogurt adds a nice contrast to the warm spices, while the herbs bring a pop of freshness to each bite.
