Knaperstekt kyckling med potatis och halloumi
Knaperstekt kyckling är en vardagsrätt som ofta är i vår veckomeny. Efter att ha provat denna en gång så förstår du varför. Dels är knaperstekt kyckling otroligt lätt att laga, att variera, tar hand om sig själv i ugnen och så vansinnigt god. Vardagsmat Jag älskar att laga mat och står gärna i köket. Men vardagsmat är ganska stressigt för mig också. Därför tar jag gärna genvägar utan att för den sakens skull kompromissa varken kvalitet eller smak. Nummer ett är bra råvaror, punkt. Detta är det som påverkar din mat absolut mest och är det som du kan inte ska kompromissa bort. Nummer två är att hitta på recept som sköter sig…
When life calls for Tortano
I love bread. I could live off good quality bread. Dip in olive oil and be done. If you are anything like me, you’ll love Greek Tortano. All the best flavours in one bread. You can almost smell it right? How to make Tortano The first time I made Tortano it was a complete mess. It ended up not being a wreath. But instead a big blob. Tasty perhaps, but a blob none the less. I have since made it many times. And it does taste better when baked properly. I will teach how to make it. So that you can get it right from the beginning. It’s all about the right ingridients…

Mainly because of of the fact that we are seven people one week and only two the other week. But I have a new system. I shop at matsmart, I can…

Jack O’Lantern stuffed peppers
Jack O’Lantern stuffed peppers are the perfect addition to your Halloween party. They are easy to make, a little creepy and yet delicious to eat. These Jack O’lantern stuffed peppers are vegetarian, however, you can fill them with anything you like. I fill my Jack O’Lantern stuffed peppers with couscous and cheese. The key is to season the couscous well. And the parmesan cheese just makes everything a little bit better. Different fillings It’s really simple to play around with different fillings to accompany your Jack O’Lantern stuffed peppers. Minced meat, rice or why not both? Just make sure you cook everything before you fill your Jack O’Lantern stuffed peppers. I tried one batch with red rice.…
Roasted heirloom tomato soup
You know those days when you get home from picking up your kids from school? When you get home and you realise that you don’t have the energy to cook? Ever have those days?

There is something beautiful about the food that has been able to grow and mature during the warm summer months. Like gorgeous…

Sweet potato jacket in the oven
I made a post on my Instagram this week about hell hour. Let’s continue down that road. Because let’s face it, school just started. We have a long way until Christmas break. Sweet potato jackets bake themselves in the oven. The topping takes about 5 minutes to do. That leaves you being able to do whatever else you want to do until the oven clock rings. Sweet potato jacket not only bakes itself in the oven, which gives you time to do something else. It is also a great source for getting your daily dose of vitamin A. And it's delicious too! Sweet potato jacket While not really related to the “normal” potato they…

Shakshuka -Middle eastern quick food
Shakshuka is my favourite Middle Eastern go-to meal. It’s quick, it’s very flavourful and all it takes is 20 minutes. And if you have eggs and tomato sauce you have your base. I would say that’s pretty damn perfect. Shakshuka – what? I always mispronounce this and call it Shakshukra and my son calls it Shakira. However, you want to pronounce it – I really urge you to try it. Traditionally the recipe requires Harissa, which is a hot chilli paste. Usually, it has a smoky flavour. I didn’t have Harissa at home. Therefore I switched it up a little. Onion, tomato and garlic serve as a base in this recipe. Which incidentally is the base…

Hungarian plum dumplings
Hungarian plum dumplings or Szilvás gomboc as they are called in Hungarian is the epitome of my childhood. This is how my grandmother showed me her deepest love for me. And after making Hungarian plum dumplings myself I now know how deep that love went. There is no shortcut to making Hungarian plum dumplings. However, the effort is worth it. The dough is the same as when you make gnocchi. It’s made from potato pasta. The hardest part of making Hungarian plum dumplings is making the actual dumplings. Then have them to stay in the shape of a whole ball whilst cooking them. But more about this later on. I saw my grandmother make this…
