Traveling in a campervan becomes more challenging in colder weather, and especially when it’s not only colder but also wet. We crossed a few more borders and went up north again to collect our new little friend Ziggy, a young street dog who found us on one of our city walks. He now has a … More It’s autumn

I brought some curry paste and coconut milk on our ‘rehearsel’trip. Any kind of curry paste will work, but I personally prefer red curry paste or massaman curry paste. 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

Honestly, only few people don’t like pasta cacio e pepe. Some people can’t eat it because of the cheese ( lactose), but let’s not consider them. If you prefer more vegetables, then this version is perfect to reach your vegetable quote. For 2p, chop a medium sized cauliflower in roses and cubes ( don’t forget the … More Cacio e pepe with vegetables
A second virus in 2 weeks time is forcing me to slow down ( which is really difficult for me). So my meals will be extra simple and light.
