eatable fruit!
I’ve told you already: I’m not a fruit eater. Maybe apples, but nothing else. Not just to eat fruit. If you serve a dessert – oh yes, that’s different! That’s ok, dessert is ok! I’ve got the e&t (Jan 2012) in my hands and found recipes with blood oranges. And there was an Orangengrütze (which they served with mousse au chocolat) that had to be tried.
No, not with the chocolate mousse, this would take too much time for a quick during-the-week-dessert. I’ve got 6 blood oranges and could start to make a nice, sour-power dessert!
By the way: Le gros père says that this picture reminds him of chicken sweet and sour because of the colour of the sauce. But this would be something completely different!

I don’t really like brussel sprouts. And I don’t really like sweet potatoes. Neither I like cilantro. Le gros père doesn’t really like ginger. But I think, I should learn to like all this stuff. Maybe brussel sprouts aren’t that bad?!
I gave it a try and found this recipe for a curry with brussel sprouts. Being too lazy for buying a pomegranate, I just decided to use an old apple that was waiting for being eaten. Not the same, but more regional. (Ok, we won’t start to talk about regional ingredients. Sweet potatoes? Well…)
We had the whole thing with Basmati rice, and yes: it was veeeery good!! So maybe we really learn to enrich our food choice! Continue reading ‘How to make not-liked-food tasty!’

Nothing really special…
…but yummy and very quick: a Japanese-inspired Avocado-Salad. I found a recipe in the book “ma petite cuisine Japonaise” by Laure Kié. As I didn’t have all of the ingredients, I changed it a bit, and it was just perfect for adding a little salad to a dinner.
The recipe combines Avocado with pears (and cuts everything nicely…) and uses special lemons, which I didn’t have. So here you can read my version – which is also very yummy! The soy sauce combined with Avocado reminds a bit of Sushi…

New year, new posts!
Finally. Finally I find the time to write a new post! The kitchen works, the chaos in the new appartment gets smaller, the holidays are over, time to write about food!
The rainy, grey days outside made me cook a winter vegetable stew of my Moosewood cookbook (Moosewood Restaurant cooks at home) – a nice mix of winter veggies with different colors to brighten up a bit this grey, dark light outside. It’s the mustard that makes it different from just boring boiled veggies. And it’s a recipe that makes me even eat parsnips – normally I’m not really fond of them…
And of course, it’s easy to make! Continue reading ‘New year, new posts!’

Silent night…
No picture, no recipe, no cooking. I have moved recently, and the kitchen is no real kitchen yet. But soon…
