ARCINBOLDO ‘DOWN UNDER’

By Manuela | January 20, 2017 | InAll Recipes, Blog, Mains, Uncategorized

My friend Vittorio taught me this wonderful vegetable dish, when I was writing my book ‘ Autumn in Piemonte’.
He had a most fabulous vegetable garden at ‘ Pilone’ outside Torino.
Vittorio, as a purist, told me to pick all the vegetables from the ‘orto’ ( vegetable garden) and put them in an cast iron cooking pot, without cutting them up or washing them.
Scusami Vito, I have dared to make a slight change! That is why i called it ‘Arcinboldo down under’
