You ever tried going back to the manufacturer to ask if they have another one that's kind of the same size and shape with all the relevant bits, but a little better in some areas? Go on, the Japanese model that you've sent all the way back to the factory, then ask the local manufacturer for a loan of a 2nd one while its away.
Let me know how you go with that!  |

I kinda live on the Mediterranean(Adriatic to be more precise(Sava river to be more precise(Savica lakes to be more precise))) and i have never seen this(also, my roots are all over the place, small number of them is med.), but i assume it is a Spanish dish. For lame reasons(Italian food likes stuff more tomatoey and less fried, spainards are fried people(no offense:D) and the fact that i have never seen this even though i tasted a lot of Italian foods because the local tradition/cuisine is well connected with italian stuff).
But I can't judge from the picture. Is it spicey? does it have meat in it? if yes, what kind?
This was probably a useless post, mi scusi.
Thanks for making me hungry :o

My dad used to make this when he was too lazy to do anything else
Oh and he has a lot of Mediterranean influence in him since he spent a lot of time there as part of his military career |

| Fried spaghetti is news to me. But my parents do fry leftover couscous. |

No, not really. It's rather neutral. Eggs + Pasta + Salt = That.

You can add meat to it, I reckon, but we usually just add spaghetti.
And are you in Slovenia? Well, that's as Italian as the good old Yugoslavia can get :D |

It's Cro coast. :o
The only reason it's not called Mediterranean is The boot, but everything is the same.
Slo is more Austrian wannabe then Italian. :toothless |

I first wrote Croatia but then I found a city called Slavica in Slovenia, so I thought I was wrong :toothless |

A-ha! The Sephardi Jew connection makes some more sense now, Oscar. Do you know where in Spain is (the family of) your grandmother from? As I recall it, Guatemalan Spanish is pretty unique (the way you guys roll your Rs, for example), so I don't know how to trace it back to a specific region in Spain. |
Yeah, I think our accent is pretty distinct in comparison with the rest of Latin American spanish speakers. We, along with Mexicans, are pretty much the only ones that do pronounce the "s", for example. :D
I knew that my grandfather's ancestors come from Extremadura but I didn't know where my grandmother's came from. It turns out they come from Galicia, which according to some pages I found on the internet had a significant amount of Sephardi Jews. :D |
