I can still remember the first time I prepared pumpkin sweet and sour. At a dinner with friends, I put this dish on the table and it was an instant hit. A beautiful Hokkaido squash serves as the base for this exotic sweet and sour dish. Perfect for fall and full of delicious spices. It's surprisingly easy to prepare and will impress your guests.
I learned this wonderful recipe for oven-baked pumpkin wedges from my grandmother and I've been making it off and on for years, especially in the fall when pumpkins are in season. It's easy to prepare, vegetarian and incredibly delicious. You can serve it as a main dish or as a side dish with meat or fish, depending on your preference.
This simple recipe for veal shank is a big hit with my family. The combination of crispy skin and tender, juicy meat is simply irresistible. When I have the time, I really like to cook it slowly at a low temperature to get the most flavor out of it. But don't worry, veal shank can also be prepared in less time and is still very tasty.
This delicious, hearty broccoli ham casserole is a regular favorite at our family lunch table. Every time I make the casserole, the kitchen smells wonderfully of baked cheese. The interplay of creamy cheese, crunchy broccoli and flavorful ham is simply irresistible, and the crispy casserole is the icing on the cake.
This salad of raw beetroot, apple and carrots is one of my favourite quick and healthy meals. It's packed with vitamins and fibre and its beautiful bold colour makes it very appealing to the eye.
I love fresh salads and Vogerlsalat, also known as lamb's lettuce, is high on my list of favorites. The beauty of this salad is that it is quick to prepare and has a wonderful earthy flavor. I like to serve it with simple dishes or when spontaneous guests announce themselves. Lamb's lettuce with vinegar-mustard dressing tastes especially good !
Pea puree with cream is my favourite accompaniment to meat. I love its delicate consistency and the slightly sweet taste that plain peas have in them. The preparation is not difficult at all and with the cream, the peas take on a whole new dimension.
Hokkaido pumpkin soup is an autumnal delicacy that I enjoy preparing and enjoying every year. The simplified process - including not peeling the pumpkin - makes the soup an absolute favorite during the cooler months. Not only is it tasty and healthy, but it's also enjoyable to prepare - a real treat for the palate.
This recipe for crispy fried chicken drumsticks is one of my favorite recipes for a cozy weeknight dinner. The chicken drumsticks are crispy on the outside and tender and juicy on the inside, simply irresistible. With the spices I use in my recipe, the chicken always has an aromatic, strong yet not too strong flavor.
