Humus with grilled paprika

Humus with grilled paprika

I don’t know if I told you this, but I really like humus. Whenever I go to my favourite Lebanese restaurant, I order a dish that contains humus. And you will find humus quite often also in my fridge. Today I decided to try another humus recipe. And you know what? I really like the taste. This is also the reason why I share the recipe with you.

Plum dumplings

Plum dumplings

My first attempt to make plum dumplings ended in a small desaster. I used a kilo of flour (you had to use only 100g) and the dough was just too sticky to form dumplings from it. So I had to trow it in the trash. That was 4 years ago. At that time I comforted with the idea that I cannot make dumplings. In the meantime, I've decided to give the dumplings another chance. I researched a bit, have read various recipes (and there are many variants) and then tried it again. And it worked. And here is the recipe

White sangria

White sangria

Last year I spent my holiday in Portugal. And this year it was Spain's turn...Ibiza and Formentera to be more specific. And whenever we went out to eat, we ordered Sangria...we have tried everything: white sangria, red sangria, Cava sangria... we tried out even green sangria. And because I rather miss the summer in this moment, yesterday I made a white sangria...it reminds me of the great time I had in my holiday.

Spaghetti aglio olio e peperoncino

Spaghetti aglio olio e peperoncino


Spaghetti aglio olio e peperoncino is one of the easiest pasta recipes. And I have never eaten it. Hard to believe, right? How can it be? There is a very simple explanation: although you can find this dish in almost all restaurants, I've never ordered it. Why? Because it is such a simple dish that you can cook it quickly at home and when I go to the restaurant, I want to try something fancy. And why did it took so long until I cooked it? Well, because there was always something more interesting to be cooked. But today my fridge was empty...and so I was finally able to cook spaghetti aglio olio e peperoncino. And now when I write this post, I enjoy another serving.

Greek salad

Greek salad

I know, I know ... again a salad. And not even something special. But what can I do? The weather is just perfect so I do not want to stay behind the stove. So it has to be fast. And what is more perfect than salads? Or do you prefer to cook instead of laying in the sun? I confess that I prefer enjoying the day outside. Autumn and winter will sooner or later come...then I do not mind to sit in a warm room and cook. So, for all those who rather prefer to spend the day outside, here the recipe:

Berry clafoutis


Berry Clafoutis

In the previous post I told you that I had to buy the berries, since I had a few ideas what I can do with them. Beside the Berry-Oreo-Milkshake I baked also this dessert.

Roasted peaches, nectarines and apricots

Roasted peaches, nectarines and apricots

Last week I wanted something sweet, but not a cake. But to eat only fruits was also boring. And then I remembered a recipe that I have seen some years ago in a TV show. Luckily, I've written down the recipe in my recipe book. So I searched the recipe, found it and cooked roasted peaches, nectarines and apricots.

Berry-Oreo-Milkshake

Berry-Oreo-Milkshake

Last summer I have seen this delicious Oreo Strawberry-Shake on Janneke’s blog Orangenmond and I have decided to try it. Well, since I cannot eat strawberries (I'm allergic) I had to find an alternative. And so a few months have passed.
