Fried king oyster mushrooms with mozzarella and walnuts

Fried king oyster mushrooms with mozzarella and walnuts

The summer is over now. I was hoping that we will have some nice late summer days or nice autumn days, but this is not the case at the moment. Theoretically autumn is not so bad...if it wouldn’t rain so much. And if the days wouldn’t be so gray and cold. What I like about autumn is the colourful leaves and the seasonal fruits and vegetables. Figs, mushrooms, pumpkins...they all have season now. All this makes my heart beat faster...because I can finally use all these ingredients again. And share with you recipes that have been waiting for years to be published. For example, these fried king oyster mushrooms with mozzarella and walnuts. The first time I cooked the recipe 3 years ago. And then 2 years ago. But only now do finally share the recipe with you. Better later than never, or?

No-Knead cheese, tomato, and garlic bread

No-Knead cheese, tomato, and garlic bread

Last weekend, Zorra and Sandra called for the 20th synchronous baking event. We baked a no-knead bread with cheese, tomatoes and garlic. The original recipe is from kingarthurflour.com But I changed the recipe a bit.

Mini Pavlova

Mini Pavlova


I know, I know. There are already 2 pavlova recipes on the blog. At the beginning I didn’t want to publish today’s recipe. After I cooked the asparagus with sauce hollandaise, I remained with 2 eggs whites. I decided to bake mini pavlovas. When I was home for Christmas I had an attempt to bake some. But since I was not familiar with the oven and I also had no oven thermometer I burned the pavlovas. At my place I always use a thermometer so this time everything worked just fine. When I tried the first piece I was so excited that I could not keep the recipe only for me. And I think you will not mind.

Tomatoe-basil soup

Tomatoe-basil soup

From an astronomical point of view, the summer will continue until 22 September. But if you look out the window, autumn is already here. For a few days it has been cold and rainy in Vienna. I am a summer person and I really hoped that we will still have a few warm days. But it does not look like this at the moment. As the weather was cold, I cooked a hot soup on the weekend.

Italian antipasti plate

Italian antipasti plate

A few weeks ago I bought a 3-in-1 sandwich maker. My sandwich maker broke, so I was looking for a new one. And then I have found a cheap 3-in-1 device. In addition to the sandwich plate, it also has a grill and a waffles plate. I had to test everything, so I decided to prepare an antipasti plate. Everything worked very well so that I can show you today the result. An Italian antipasti plate is something very tasty and even if you don’t own a grill, you can prepare it. I will not make state any quantities, only a list of the ingredients and the preparation method.

Sugar melon buttermilk ice cream

Sugar melon buttermilk ice cream

As you may know, since last year I am the owner of an ice machine. Last year I didn’t use the ice machine so much, but this year I changed this. I'm not the big ice cream eater now, but I like to try new tastes. To be honest I like more refined tastes, such as this sugar melon buttermilk ice cream.

Rib-Eye steak with roasted tomatoes


Today all the meat will be happy! Today I noticed, that I didn’t post a meat containing recipe for a while. But as you already know by now, I don’t often cook with meat. And when I am cooking, then mostly beef or chicken. Today’s recipe is a rib-eye steak with roasted tomatoes. Something I had recently for lunch.
