This economical spinach and pasta bake may seem simple, but it is extremely tasty. It is the kind of dish that will easily become a family favourite. It might even convert veggie haters into firm believers! Popeye, eat your heart out!
Dit behoort genoeg te wees vir 6, maar mik eerder vir 4 – dis groter bederf.
Hierdie wonderlike wit sjokolade-en-pimperneutkolwyntjies wonderwerkies was een van die heel eerste resepte wat ek in my nuwe stoof gebak het.
I often find the American culture too in your face and larger than life for my liking – I love the European laid back elegance and much more subtle approach to life. But when I realise that it is that same abrasive culture that gave us brownies and a TV series like Once Upon a Time, I tend to be much more lenient.
It’s always a hectic time of the year for me with all the friends and family visiting over the festive season. The worst is those unexpected phone calls followed by the surprise visits – always at a time when you have almost nothing left in the fridge, freezer or the cupboard.
I have discovered a real lifesaver for times like that – a really cheap and easy dish that looks so impressive and tastes really, really good. You can serve it hot or at room temperature with a salad as a light lunch or as a hearty appetiser with some drinks.
I love chicken livers and have tried out many different recipes. But, as I’ve now discovered, if you haven’t tried deep fried chicken livers, you haven’t lived at all! The recipe for the onion fritters was born by accident, but it has grown into an addiction for me!
A touch of Europe – these cookies come straight from France! You grow the lavender in your own garden. It not only looks beautiful, but in summer the flowers keep flies at bay. You’ll only need 2 -3 little buds for a batch of cookies.
I love cooking with wine. Actually, not only wine – sherry, brandy, whisky, liqueur . . . Something magical happens when you add a tiny tot of brandy to a sauce, a splash of wine to a bredie.
I watch in awe when I flame the brandy in my pot of coq au vin and quench the fire with a good full-bodied wine.
Kies jy sout bo soet? Dan is hierdie die ideale happie vir jou. Dis vinnig en maklik om te maak. Soos met enige ander muffin, roer jy net die bestanddele deurmekaar, skep in pannetjies en bak tjoef-tjaf.
Kroek lekker met hierdie rolletjies. Die vonkelwyn in die resep laat dit soos tipiese suurdeeggebak proe. Dis eintlik ‘n variasie op die tema van die Sprite-skons wat al jare gelede al ‘n staatmaker in elke voorstedelike huisvrou se reseptelegger geword het.
Die resep is van buurvrou na buurvrou oor die heining gedeel en na elke teepartytjie is pen en papier nadergetrek om die handige ou reseppie neer te skryf. Hierdie variasie met die vonkel is heerlik lig en ‘n ideale pasmaat saam met ‘n fynproewersmaal.
