After living in Italy for a while, I realized that instead of having carbs as main ingredient, I (we) prefer vegetables. This is of course not how most of the traditional Italian main dishes are served. Our Italian friends will disagree with my recipes and will surely prefer old-school ones. Anyway, as docV I have … More DocV style risotto
We love oven fried polenta as a side dish or even as an appetizer. I have some whole wheat polenta in our camper storage, but no oven. Let’s try. Cook 160 grams of polenta, following the instructions of the package ( mine is a quick one). Add salt and some dried oregano to give the … More Let’s prepare a dinner with polenta
Today we did a lot of driving to the Lake Siljan region. This lake is one of the larger lakes, created by a meteor 377 million years ago. I did some quick shopping for our dinner near a tiny little harbor. I bought 800 grams of cherry tomatoes, some chili and 150 grams of feta. … More Tasty all in one
The variety of grill cheeses, such as halloumi, is large. Although it’s not the healthiest ingredient regarding saturated fat and salt, we both love it, and we eat it as protein source. Tonight I bought 2 grill cheeses with chili, each 150 grams, 500 grams of red sweet bell pepper, and baby spinach and arugula. … More Grill cheese is amazingly delicious
With 2 fennels, a Scandinavian blue cheese and 200 ml plant-based cream I can prepare a pasta or a risotto recipe. Iris prefers a risotto, so that’s what I will do. I always pay attention not to consume too much gas while cooking in the camper, and apparently our consumption is really low. Chop and … More Iris prefers risotto tonight
I love the umami flavor of anchovies, which brings me back to the first time I tasted ‘bagna cauda’ in Torino, an amazing city in the Piemonte. I gradually found my ideal mixture between canned anchovies, dried spices, garlic and light cream ( instead of butter). The original recipe is meant for a dip sauce … More With the idea of ‘bagna cauda’ in my mind
We arrived on the island Rugen to explore the Jasmund natural park tomorrow. The weather is unpredictable, but that’s part of the fun🙃. 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
Round courgettes are a bit more expensive than normal ones, but they are so 😍. For 2p boil 80 grams of red rice al dente. Drain. Set aside. Cut 6 courgettes in halves. Remove the inner meat. Chop. Put the cups in an oiled oven dish. Fry 4 chopped garlic cloves in a drizzle of … More Filled vegetables, always a winner
After being in Belgium for the second time, we are gradually getting back in our daily routines. The cold and sunny weather helps to be outside for regular walks and Oskar doesn’t mind😉. We start the week with a vegetarian pasta dish. For 2p you need 1 onion, the usual 4 garlic cloves, 1 chili, … More Cold and sunny
A plate filled with a diversity of starters is my top choice. It’s more work in advance, but more pleasure at the table. I love to spend time in the kitchen, especially on a Sunday morning. Our weekend dinner is probably more ‘elegant’ than a meal during the week. Cookies or keftedes with courgettes, grilled … More Antipasti, mezze,tapas, starters, ….😍
