Time-out

Hello my dear, faithful readers. When you will read this post, I will be far, far away. I just wanted to let you know that in the next month nothing will happen on the blog nothing. I could have been able to program some new posts, but I did not want to. This because I want to be able to reply to your comments, suggestions or questions. And now and then a time-out is not bad either.

I hope I find you all herein April, as there are so many recipes that I want to share with you. Regards and see you soon!

Crispy Stripes...KFC style

Let’s be honest...who does not like to eat from time to time unhealthy junk food? I admit it...every now and then I 'll do it, whether it is Mac, Burger King or KFC. But it is not so healthy. I love the crispy stripes from KFC...but every time I eat them I feel sick afterwards. I can not say if it is because of the ingredients or because I devour the stuff. What I can I say is then whenever I cook the stripes at home, I do not have this problem. This is also the reason why I didn’t eat for years at KFC... I like from there only the stripes...ok, and the coleslaw salad (I 'm still looking for the right recipe for this). So... if you like the stripes like I do but not want to eat junk food, then this recipe is right for you.

Mucenici

Today, on the 9th of march the „Mucenici” - a Christian feast of the 40 Martyrs of Sebaste is celebrated. On this day every year a typical dessert with the same name „Mucenici” is baked. The dessert is made in the shape of an 8 to look like garlands.

Thai noodles with prawns

Today, I have again a noodle recipe for you. This time not an Italian pasta recipe but Thai noodles with shrimp. I found the recipe on this blog and I had to try it out. And I do not regret this...the Thai noodles with prawns taste great and I surely will cook it often.

Chai Latte

This winter I often have drank a chai latte. And before finally spring comes, I wanted to share the recipe with you. I discovered chai latte last year, and although I don’t like nor tea or milk, this drink tasted very good. So I decided to make it at home.

Ladyfingers-Mascarpone layer dessert in glass

What do you do when you have different ingredients in the fridge, but not enough for baking a cake? I asked this question myself after I saw that I had some milk, 250 g mascarpone cheese, some yogurt, a couple of black cherries and one opened package of ladyfingers. The ingredients were not enough to bake a cake. So I had to improvise. And so this dessert was created.

Tarte flambée with onions, pears and gorgonzola

I wanted to bake a tarte flambée for some time now, but I did not have time until last weekend. Every time I wanted to bake one, something else came up...either I changed my cooking plans, or I had purchased something else, that had to be cooked immediately. And so the time passed by. But last weekend it finally happened...I bought the necessary ingredients in time and nothing else could make me change my mind. So I finally cooked the tarte. And I do not regret it...the variant I’ve chosen tastes so great that I even took one slice with me to eat at lunch at work (in 99% of cases I eat at the canteen).
