Sloppy Slovenia

It's been a while since I wrote anything, because for once in my life i have actually been doing my homework and doing all my readings( ok that's a lie half of my readings...if that).  I have technically "travelled " as far as this project is concerned to about 13 countries now. Last time I wrote I was struggling, to find recipes for Slovenia, when I embarked on this, project my plan was to work my way strategically starting in Hungary through Europe into the Middle East then onto Africa Asia etc.... as this you will find out in later posts, that went completely tits up a while ago.

Slovenia is a small country, population and area wise, where large quantities of horse meat, and bizzare cheese's are consumed. Subsequently, Slovenia has yet to penetrate the culinary market in ways such as other countries have (probably cause half the names are hard to pronounce....actually impossible is a better word. After sifting through the internet I eventually surrendered and found a recipe for Slovenian Fritatta. Which is basically eggs, flour, cream and a bunch of green herbs served with prosciutto and bread.

Anyone who knows me well enough will know that, I can cook a complicated dish just fine but when it comes to omelettes or anything that requires cooking eggs in a pan, my plating skills are about as elegant as a warthog with a head-cold, after too many drinks. In other words, a bit of a mess. A bit of a hot mess I suppose is the best way to put it, but being a hot mess is better than a cold mess at the end of the day. Especially when it comes to food.
