We arrived on the island Rugen to explore the Jasmund natural park tomorrow. The weather is unpredictable, but that’s part of the funđ. With the relaxing sound of the rain, while Iris is reorganizing our drying laundry, I prepare a real number one campervan recipe. Chop and fry 1 red onion, 4 beautiful sweet bell … More Jasmund natural park and wild camping
I buy curry pastes in the Asian supermarket in Brussels. The red and the massaman curry pastes are my favorites. Once opened I store them in the freezer. Before leaving I vacuum sealed the red curry paste in individual portions of 1 table spoon each, hoping to keep them fresh for our road trip ( … More Thai red curry paste
After a wonderful week in Belgium, spending time with family and friends, eating lots of delicious food and lacking sleep, we quickly find the formula to slow traveling. We love the national park of the Hoge Veluwe with the incredible Kröller-MĂŒller museum where you can easily spend half a day ( we travel with Oskar, … More Enjoying the Netherlands
Remember older shakshouka recipes mainly prepared in the oven? This time I will ( have to) cook in a more traditional way, but still my way. After a rather long drive, a short visit of Dijon, we found an amazing spot, 15 minutes outside of the city, to spend the night. We only hope the rain … More I love shakshouka

And thus, everything becomes a bit mushy, as in a stew ( because I don’t want to use an excessive amount of fat). In this recipe with eggplant, … More I try not to miss an oven

Chop 4 garlic cloves ( this remains the best base for any docV recipeđ), 1 red onion and a piece of ginger ( 4cm). Fry in … More Easy vegetarian curry recipes
Weather has been unpredictable in Italy and, we had lots of friends visiting us. I cooked a lot of children proof dishes which I’m sure you know.

It’s been awhile since I have been posting. As some of you know already, we will soon leave for a roadtrip in a campervan to the North of Europe. This implies a completely different way of life and a different way of cooking : I will have no oven, no kitchen filled with lots of … More New adventures ahead
I love the transition of an (almost) empty fridge followed by a weekly refill. Certain basic ingredients are always available, such as nuts, asian products, peanut butter, tahini, butter, parmesan etcetera. Before making my weekly shopping list, I check whatâs left ( donât forget to check the storage now and again). Often there is enough … More Empty fridge recipe
