| | ajo mortero/atascaburras (traditional garlic and potato puré prepared in a mortar) | Explanation:
"El Atascaburras (a veces denominado como ajo mortero) es un plato manchego típico del invierno albaceteño, preferentemente cuando nieva. Es un plato tradicional de lugares fríos y que se suele comer cuando caen las primeras nieves de invierno, incluso se dice que para que salga bien bueno, debe usarse nieve derretida para cocerlo. Las exquisitas y pequeñas nueces de la sierra se añaden para adornar y completar un plato nutritivo. Dicen los lugareños que como casi todos los platos de campo, es mejor no usar platos y comer directamente del mortero."
There seem to be many varieties of this dish, sometimes with cod, breadcrumbs and walnuts.
You don't mention what you need the translation for - is it a menu where space is limited?

Hi neilmac.
I know it's preferable to use equivalents if we have them, but I really don't think we have one for this! Perhaps best to check with the client exactly what they put in this dish as there seem to be a whole load of different versions. It's certainly not just a bowl of crushed garlic though - that would certainly keep the vampires away, and probably everyone else!
Good luck! |
