Do you like soup? We do, but to be honest, we prefer soups that have a lot of stuff added. A homemade potato soup, chicken soup or this Simple & Easy Hungarian Goulash Soup, for example. A delicious dish my family always loved to prepare when it’s colder outside. Give us a clear soup with just a noodle or two, and you will see only sad faces. ;P
When dinner needs to be a little quicker on the table, we like to use pre-cooked pasta or, as in the case of this Skillet with Mushrooms, Potato Noodles & Spinach we used potato noodles from the supermarket. It’s less work and you get something tasty on the table without a lot of effort. You don’t have to make your life any more complicated than necessary ;P
I got a lot of classic dishes I love to eat but do not necessarily love to make all the time. These delicious Savoy Cabbage Rolls (German Kohlrouladen) are definitely in that category. Everyone loves them here, but not so much when it comes to prepare them, to be honest. We only make them for special occasions or if someone asks really nicely. ;P
The UK and Ireland are not necessarily known for their »haute cuisine« or a lot of dishes that are cooked all over the world. France, Italy, or Spain are a bit more popular in that area. No offense! ;P Nonetheless, there are, of course, dishes in the UK/Ireland that are really delicious. Bangers ‘n’ Mash, for example. Or a simple and delicious Cottage Pie! Both dishes are really great and also very filling…
When zucchini are in season and the harvest was good, you can often get those green fellas quite cheaply in supermarkets or at the weekly farmer’s market. So if you are on a budget or don’t want to spend a lot, zucchini might be the perfect veggie for you to prepare dinner. This delicious Zucchini & Potato Casserole can be your main course or served as a side with some meat, fish, etc.
Stews are something that is normally served during the colder months of the year – but that’s not the case for us here. We love delicious stews all year round. Like this simple Vegan Lentil & Potato Stew. It is super easy to prepare and quick on the table. The perfect meal if you don’t want to work a lot on a weeknight to prepare dinner. We all feel the same in this kind of situation – the quicker, the better ;P
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 ;)
