This recipe was pretty much an accident to be honest. I wanted something for dinner with lentils and I thought of combining them with mango and tomato somehow. And I have to admit it turned out pretty damn good.
It is sweet from the mango, sour from the tomatoes and lime juice, spicy from the cayenne pepper and creamy from the lentils. It is pretty much an explosion of flavours in your mouth.
This is a curry for lazy people. Literally.
It is a fusion of risotto and curry. Therefore I call it curry rice. It is great when you are craving curry but you have no patience to cook the whole sauce. This recipe will take you a bit more than half an hour to make.
Hello, is Santa Claus already there?
I don’t know how about you, but I can’t wait until Christmas!
I want to eat all this food, spend time with my family and see their faces when they unwrap the presents. It is so much fun every year.
Most of the food we need has already been prepared. Actually, I am sipping right now on my mom’s borscht. It is so good, you won’t believe it! I am drinking it from a cup, but on Christmas Eve we eat in from a bowl with uszka. But what are uszka? These are little dumplings with mushroom filling that resemble animals’ ears. Aren’t they cute?
Hello gingerbread men!
It is right now the perfect time to bake. To bake gingerbread cookies of course. It’s Christmas time, isn’t it?
I love Christmas. It is apart from spring my favourite time of the year. Everything is covered with snow, lights are shining everywhere and try to get through the snow that’s covering them, Christmas decorations surround us, we get to decorate our own Christmas tree that will give off a beautiful smell of forest… But there are other things I love about Christmas. People are generally nicer to each other. There seem to be no problems at all. There is this atmosphere of love and happiness and I prefer it much more to the sad and gloomy atmosphere that surrounds us the whole year. I would love if everyone was that happy as during Christmas their whole life! Don’t you think the world would be a much better place where everyone wants to live?
Hello little dumplings!
It’s been quite a while since I wrote anything and I want to truly apologize. It’s been crazy at school this past week and I was so so rushed off my feet.
Last weekend I had to sing in a choir competition, which took almost half of my Saturday away. I had to make fillings for pierogi and doughs for two types of gingerbread cookies. On Sunday I baked all the gingerbread cookies and took pictures of them, which as you all know is super time consuming. I wanted to make pierogi as well but they take so much time that I decided to make them on Monday. And actually I slept till 10 am on Sunday so that’s why I had very little time, but I was extremely tired after the whole week of tests that it was a much needed sleep.
On Monday I came home earlier and made the first batch of pierogi and took pictures of them, which also took quite some time. Later I had to finish forming my little dumplings, which would take much more without my Mum’s help. Thank you Mum :*
Peas and Love
