Since I'm back at work, I have less time for cooking and experimenting. At least one good thing of being furlough, is that you have plenty time for cooking, eating and trying for new recipes. Now I'm back to my old routine, looking for quick and healthy dinners and meals I can prepare in the [...]
I have a serious problem with arranging the food on a plate for photos when I'm hungry. Ideally I would just toss a bunch of veg and couple sausage, and start eating before it gets cold, and I go really frustrated trying to make some kind of aesthetic composition on the plate. Sometimes it finishes [...]
Cottage pie is native to Great Britain and Ireland and was a long time ago a way to use excess or scraps of meat. Very often such a casserole was prepared by poorer families living in rural settlements. A meat stew with vegetables, baked under a layer of mashed potatoes, was a nutritious and filling [...]
Paneer is a popular cheese (made with milk) from India, white, firm, cohesive and spongy with a close-knit texture and kind of sweet, sour, nutty flavour.

Some taste combinations won't stop surprising me. Adding horseradish to to a simple salad sauce, adds so much value and freshness to the cabbage. On the other hand adding mustard (which I like a lot) to pork chops (which I don't quite like) makes them just delicious. That's how with these two simple ingredients you [...]
I have to admit, that I'm not a fan of lamb meat, but this lamb sloppy Giuseppe is fantastic! Tomato flavour covers this sheep-run aftertaste I do not enjoy, soft mozzarella cheese goes extremely well with delicate lamb. This dish has strong shakshuka vibe which I love! My partner loves lamb, so that's why I [...]

Years ago I got Pakistani chicken drumsticks recipe from my mum (with foil package attached, like a proper drug dealer), she got this from a friend, who got the recipe from... and so on 🙂 There [...]
