I am currently:
Want to cook food from The Hunger Games?

So I found these two videos and decided to share:

Guides and recipes to make two of the famous dishes from The Hunger Games. These two have made their own recipes, based on information available and their own cool cooking skills.

First up we have Lamb Stew with Plums. That famous dish of the Capitol which became a favourite of Katniss.

If you didn't catch those ingredients:

Lamb Stew with Plums, serves 6-8
3 lbs lamb (shoulder or neck)
1 teaspoon ground ginger
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon turmeric
1/4 teaspoon cayenne
1/4 teaspoon ground cardamom
1/4 teaspoon ground coriander
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon cloves
1/4 teaspoon basil
1/4 teaspoon thyme
1/2 teaspoon rosemary
1/2 cup water
1/2 cup unsalted butter (1 stick)
2 medium onions, finely chopped
2 cloves of garlic, finely chopped
2 cinnamon sticks
3 cups chicken stock
1 1/2 cups dried plums
1/4 cup honey (optional)
1 cup carrots, cut into 1/2 inch thick slices
2 potatoes, cubed
Lemon juice (optional)
1/2 cup flat leaf parsley, chopped


and secondly, you could make this on the same day as the stew to really have a Hunger Games meal, Peeta's burnt nut and raisin bread. The type of bread he intentionally burnt and tossed to Katniss, saving her life when she was starving.
