If you can’t travel, at least your stomach will...

  Vegetarian curry I never expected this to be so yummy. Thanks Nigella for the tip. Exploring different cultures watching travel documentaries  and learning new recipes is my thing right now.  This is so easy to make and doesn’t take long. Firstly for 4 portions, I chopped 1/2 butternut squash and 2 sweet potatoes and baked them until they were tender, it didn’t have to be completely soft. (20-30min @180c) I would say al dente because  it was going to be cooked later in sauce until softened. In the meantime I prepared the curry sauce where I put 2 garlic cloves, 1 red onion or you can also use a pink shallot, turmeric (if you don't have fresh , use powder 1 tbs), 3cm long piece of ginger, a bunch of fresh coriander, and 3 small chillis. I blended all these ingredients. Then I cooked the paste in the pan, I added 1 can of coconut milk, which gave it a very smooth texture. Also a little bit of water, salt and pepper, 2 tbs of  red chilli paste, 2 tbs of tamarind ...

Cake or not cake...

  If you guessed that it might be a chocolate or walnut cake with vanilla icing then you are wrong! In fact this is a savoury cake with cream cheese 😁. A rather unusual recipe! Yes, zucchini pie. As you can see above I used 1 zucchini, 1 egg, around 4 tbs of self-raising flour, 1&1/2 tsp of baking powder, cheese ( with this ingredient you can be generous, there is never enough of it 😉), sausage and bacon, 1 small onion, 2 small garlic cloves,  a little bit of milk, also you can also add hard boiled eggs chopped into small pieces. I didn’t do it because my family prefer to have the boiled egg separately on the plate.  After all the ingredients  are mixed, I placed it into the oven for about 45-50 min at 160c. I used the cake toothpick technique to check if its done in the middle.  One time I was making a vegetarian version of this recipe and to make it richer I added small pieces of boiled potato.  When it was done I cooled it down and then put cheese ...
