Pasta and sausage are most often served together with a rich and heavy tomato sauce. I wanted to do something different. I serve my pasta with a spicy sausage, where I have removed the casing, and together with tomatoes, spinach, a lot of parmesan and fresh sage. This delicious dish is really quick to prepare [...]
Mini potatoes grilled in the oven - such a simple side dish, typical Scandinavian, and the potatoes can be flavored just as you want them. I flavored with thyme and lemon this time which give a fresh and rich flavor. The thyme has an earthy, a bit sweet and at the same time a slightly [...]
I might have the best friends - I got a fresh caught (!) Ahi Tuna from my girlfriend, who's husband caught it together with his friends. Wow, it's the best tuna I ever had. This recipe was the first that came up in my head. I wanted to sear it in sesame seeds and black [...]
Bagels, can it be more American? 😉 I know this is not a Scandinavian tradition. But as I have been writing about before when it comes to the Scandinavian cuisine, we are very much influenced and taken other food cultures into our own. I LOVE bagels. I do! I think it is because you can't [...]
That we eat a lot of fish in Scandinavia is, from all my recipes, quite easy to understand. This time I have made a really simple dish where the fish is in the centre. It's few ingredients, quick to prepare and perfect for an evening where no one really has the time or energy to [...]
It is something special with a lemon cake. The sweet cake together with the sour lemon that gives it a freshness. My husband appreciate most of the cakes I bake, but lemon cake makes him extra happy. 🙂 I think also the poppy seeds add a lot to this cake. The poppy seeds not only [...]
Chicken and curry is just the perfect combination. This stew reminds me of a school dish we got in school when I was a kid (yes, we get lunch served in school every day in Sweden). I remember I loved the dish and therefore, I guess, I have always been a curry lover. With that [...]
I have to admit, lentil hasn't been my first option when it comes to ingredients for cooking. But with that said, I think red lentil is perfect to fulfil a delicious stew. High in protein, red lentil has a mild taste that gives creaminess to the dish. Red lentils are really an eyeopener for me [...]
Today is SUPER BOWL and my husband is really excited. And I am really excited about this recipe I will share with you today. 😉 This is a perfect super bowl snack (or appetizer) because there is a small risk of making a mess (be careful with the salsa sauce). The original recipe of Danish [...]
This is a recipe our whole family like, including my 10 months daughter (excluding the salt). 😉 It's a really good recipe if you want to try something else than the regular pancake recipe or just want a gluten free option. But you must be a banana fan. They have a sweet taste but still [...]
