Pork, Potatoes and Pumpkin (PPP) when cooked together as a stew will have you going for extra helpings.
Making-do and using what you have, are recipes of creativity. You end up with combinations of ingredients, flavours, and textures that you won’t ordinarily consider. Sometimes, it’s not even the ingredients or combination thereof but the cooking style or technique involved that leads to the creation of new dishes. We are, understandably, prone to cooking what we know, and how we know to. However, that can (and does) get us stuck in a rut of what to cook and what to make with the same ingredients we regularly buy. There is also the saying that necessity is the mother of invention.
