Vegetable parcels baked in embers
These two recipes both use the same method, so you can try these
suggestions or experiment with your own combinations.
1 Combine all of the ingredients in a
bowl and then tear off 4 generous
sheets of foil, laying them on top of
one another. Put all the ingredients in
the center, add the water, and
carefully seal each layer of foil, one
after another. Make sure that each is
folded over and completely sealed so
that the juices do not leak out.
