Less is more. Famous architect Ludwig Mies van der Rohe said this about simple design and architecture back in the days. And he was/is right. Same can be applied to the food we eat. It does not mean you have to eat less food in general, but more selective. Reduced meat consumption, for example, is good for your health and also better for the environment… and often cheaper. How do I get to the Veggie Bolognese with this introduction? I don’t know ;P
There are several dishes I cook quite regularly – that’s stews and curries. Why you may ask? Because those dishes are normally really delicious and most of the time really easy to prepare. Best example – this delicious Potato & Cauliflower Curry. You throw everything in a large pot, let it simmer for a bit and at the end, you got yourself a delicious meal. Enough to feed a whole family, or if you are only two you can eat for several days. Something I like because that means I do not have to cook every day ;P
Have you ever cooked a whole cauliflower in the oven? In one piece? It’s a super easy preparation method you really can’t go wrong with…. well, except, of course, if you leave it in the oven too long so it burns instead of being roasted ;) If you stick to the cooking times of the recipe and keep an eye on it every now and then you will not have any problems. Your Harissa Roasted Cauliflower with Hummus will turn out perfect. It’s actually one of our favorite dinner recipes because it’s so easy to make and, of course, very delicious ;)
Brownies are the perfect sweet treat for many people out there. Packed with chocolate and sugar it’s hard to resist – I have to be honest ;) Today I got a recipe that works without plant-based ingredients only. Very simple Vegan Brownies. Even though the brownies are vegan – do not mistake them for being “healthy” just because they are vegan. The absence of dairy products or eggs does not mean there is not a lot of fat and carbs involved. Be aware of that ;P
I guess you are one of those people that does not want to spend much time in the kitchen preparing food. Otherwise, you would not end up here on this page with a one-pot pasta recipe ;) Well… welcome to the club! This Vegan One-Pot Pasta is delicious and does not need more than 30 minutes to be on your table, ready to eat. Sounds great, doesn’t it?
There is nothing better than freshly baked homemade bread you pull out of your own oven. A slice of it, slightly warm with some butter and salt sprinkled on top… it’s the best! So delicious! One of my simplest and most uncomplicated bread recipes is definitely this recipe here for Potato Bread with Oats. Incredibly fluffy and thanks to the potatoes also fresh for a long time. Also, a great baking project, if you want to get rid of some (extra) cooked potatoes. You do not want to let anything go to waste ;)
I love my job, but in between I love to bake and try new things in the kitchen. A lot of my friends and colleagues encourage me to bake - for a very simple reason: they get the leftovers - and it seems they like it most of the time ;)
