The Glycaemic Index Diet
The gi index weight loss program is based around the glycaemic index, a chart showing foods and an indicator of the rapidity with which the carbohydrates of the food gets transformed to glucose in your blood stream. The believe is that long-acting foods (ie those food types with a low Gi score), keep you satisfied for a longer period of time and help to take in fewer food without starving yourself.
It is also very good for diabetics, as the low GI foods are helpful in minimizing rises in glucose secretion.

Ingredients And Procedures

1 2/3 kg Potatoes

90 g Garlic heads

4 Lemons

370 ml Olive oil

6 Black olives

3 Lemon slices

Sea salt to taste Pinch of parsley This makes enough Skordalia for several meals. Skordalia is a tasty side dish. It can also be used as a relish. Keep it refrigerated. Boil the unpeeled potatoes in water (salted if required, but not necessary). Crush the garlic into a mixing bowl. Peel the potatoes, and add them to the bowl whilst they are still hot. Add a pinch of salt. Mix the garlic and potato mixture to a pulp; using a food processor or mixer. Alternately, add the lemon juice and olive oil gradually, until all the ingredients are blended into a smooth mixture. Put the mixture into a bowl, garnish with parsley, olives and the slices of lemon. Notes: The amount of garlic can be varied according to taste; like this it has a strong flavour. Skordalia can be surved as a cold side dish, with vegetables. Posted by Kaz Glover in Intercook
