I Am still going through the                     changes and I Am collecting as many recipes as                possible to try and decide which are the ones that            comes closer to what I Am used to eat.                                Trying all these recipes have opened a whole new            world of exciting and beautiful food and I have come         to realise tha

What I promise to Tell

I know I said I had a new devise to cook in and the new device was a Tagine dish! It actually cooks like a casserole either on the cook top or the oven…well all went right for a while but then the dish cracked! silly me I did not know I had to templet it before using it! so now I have to go and buy another  dish! but the good thing is in the mean time I managed to cook a few recipes and they came out very delicious so is something I Am looking for to do it again. And I will try a few vegan dishes which I know will have you all wanting for more! so until next time with a new vegan dish.

Cooking for One

Cooking for one has become one of my favourites! now I tend to call it super fast food for one because now is very important to me to cook fast and spend less time in the kitchen not because I don't like to cook its just because Im in pain most of the time so it became very important to me to still cook delicious gourmet meals super fast. So I thought how can I do this? and believe me I found the way! so I should be soon sharing my cooking secret with you. In the mean time I got myself a cooking devise which is new to me but it has given me a lot of different way to cook. All of this I should be sharing with you soon. Also my good neighbour got me a high stool where I can sit at my bench when cooking  and I tell you it has made a big difference to me in the kitchen! more coming coming soon. My friends have complained to me because I stopped blogging now Im back and have a lot to share with you.

Cooking For One

Speedy Lamb Dinner Take 1 lamb chop or 2 depend on size rub chops with sea salt,garlic powder and olive oil, leave to marinate. Meantime in a small bowl combine a small can of chickpeas, some chopped coriander or parsley add 1/4 small red onion finely chopped, some grated lemon rind [ to taste ]2 or 3 cherry tomatoes [ halved ]1 Tbs olive oil and may be some lemon juice,and sea salt toss to combine. Now is time to grill or pan fry the chops, use a very hot grill or fry pan cook chops a few minutes on each side or to your taste! serve it on your favourite plate with the salad on the side. Enjoy! I like to prepare the salad first so it soaks in the flavours, you can use any pulse in this salad, like lentils,or canellini beans. Some times is hard to find small tins of these legumes I usually buy the big tins and freeze the rest for later use and add them to soups or casseroles.

Cooking For One

Easy Soup Place one Massel cube in 1/2 litre of boiling water in a small sauce pan on the stove then add some egg noodles or other small pasta. Add 1 smoked or dry chorizo [ sliced ]let it boil until pasta is cooked to your liking...turn stove off and add some chopped coriander serve and enjoy it! This is a quick, easy satisfying meal for a winter lunch or dinner. I buy egg noodles at the Asian shop they come in clusters I use 1 or 2 clusters for 1 person. Chorizo is the Spanish version of the English sausage.

Cooking For One

Since I started living alone 3 years ago I came to realize how much just cooking for one can be a big deal. It can be boring as there is no one to talk while preparing dinner. Now most people would probably chose to have cheese on toast or something on that line and others will eat out or buy take away to eat at home! either way we may be missing on nutrition and having too much fat! not to mention how much extra money we are spending on food with little nutrition value. The recipes I Am going to post here are not a weight lost program their are just simple and easy to follow not expensive recipes with nutrition in mind, easy to prepare with minimum time in the kitchen.
