Simple apple tart
You know, there are times when I like to bake cakes, just because. Not that I need any extra motivation, or sugar, or even event. It is just for fun or to try something new. Sometimes that would also be a good opportunity to use up some wrinkled apples or other fruit that does not look very fresh anymore.

Celery cream soup
You know, there are some vegetables which when you see them, you immediately have an idea of what to do with it. Like a broccoli for example. When I think of broccoli, a broccoli soup, or a gratin or just plain boiled as a side dish come to my mind. It would be the same with the cauliflower, for which I shared quite few ideas of what to make with it. Or a sweet potato. Easy, right?

Asparagus in puff pastry
The asparagus season is in full swing now. Normally it is a big thing here in Germany. The restaurants would announce the start of the season on the blackboards and try to win the customers with new recipes or so loved asparagus with sauce hollandaise, which is a classic.

Aloo Gobi- indian potatoe and cauliflower curry
Today’s dinner is presented by a cauliflower. I have already shared few recipes with this beautiful bulb in focus. Admittingly everytime I buy one I mostly go for the cauliflower puree, or cut the bulb in smaller florets to use as a side. But this veggie can so much more! One of the very good examples comes from the indian cuisine.

White chocolate muffins
Any chocolate fans here? If so, how about a chocolate muffin? A white chocolate muffin. Moist, fluffy and so hard to resist. The taste and the smell bring the aroma of toffee or caramel to mind.

Turkey roast for Sunday dinner
In my family we always celebrate Sundays. Mostly with tasty and festive food. I remember my parents were always up very early to start preparing everything for dinner. It was usually a three-course menu so it was a bit time consuming (well, so much for lazy days, huh?) But everything was always prepared fresh and from the scratch. And it was always so good. Everyone would help and we would gather at the table early afternoon to enjoy the meal, followed by a coffee and cake.

Breakfast brioche with chocolate
Today I thought I’ll share a breakfast recipe with you. As another weekend closes in on us maybe you’ll decide to give this recipe a go. I don’t know about you, but I am one of those people who enjoys a late lazy breakfast on the weekends, some of which lasts until early afternoon.

Simple beetroot salad
When I started sorting out my recipes by category, only then I noticed I didn’t post any side dishes so far. Well, sure, sometimes a cooked broccoli or roasted vegetables are enough. I would however like to share also other ideas. Starting with this beetroot salad, which something my family prepares very often.

Potatoe and vegetable soup with minced meat
With my last post I was probably way too early and optimistic talking about picknicks. Since then we had one sunny day and the rest of the week was pretty winter-like weather. In a way it was my own fault as I could have expected it from April. In German there is a saying “April April der macht was er will”, which you could translate into April April it does what it wants or April weather: rain and sunshine both together. Very true!

Apple and cranberry muffins
Looking through the archive of what I have posted I cannot help but wonder how is that possible that I only have 2 muffin recipies? Considering it is one of the things I bake very often and have fed a considarate amount of them to my colleagues, it is a huge negligence on my part. The good news though is that Spring is on its way and with it the picknick season. So consider this post a hint of what you can pack in your picknick basket. That is if picknicks and such are still allowed.
