Prawns, Carrot Puree, Black Garlic Sauce, Cape Gooseberries & Red Quinoa
This recipe is a real health booster, but it is equally delicious. We all know the health benefits of carrots, which are full of beta-carotene (antioxidant) and fiber. But this recipe combines a few other super foods that result in a delicious umami explosion that will surprise you: Black garlic: all the benefits of normal…
Annabel Langbein’s Coconut Tamarind Prawns
Curry in a hurry is the best way to describe this delicious recipe of Annabel Langbein. We made this on Sunday and it was so good and easy that I will add this to my standard cooking repertoire for the weekdays. The depth of flavor was so intense that you would expect this recipe to…
Miso Aubergines with Fried Rice
Another super easy recipe for the weekdays. It’s delicious, vegetarian and gets you your daily intake of veggies. Aubergines are the star of this recipe. They are glazed with miso and baked in the oven until they are very tender. I have combined this with a simple and easy to make fried rice recipe, which…
Asian Iberico Secreto Sous Vide with Bok Choy & Shiitake Mushrooms
I am quite hesitant to cook with pork. Done well, pork can be a delicious type of meat. BBQ pork belly buns are my special guilty pleasure. I never quite figured out how they can keep the pork belly so succulent whilst creating that heavenly outer layer of caramelized, crispy and sweet goodness. More often…
Shakshuka for Dinner
Shakshuka is a wonderfully lazy recipe if you come home, don’t feel like cooking and can’t wait to binge watch your favorite Netflix series. It’s exact origins are debated, but it probably originates from the Middle East / Mediterranean. I have transformed the traditional recipe into a fulfilling vegetarian dinner by adding some potatoes and…
Healthy Rosti with Smoked Trout, Horseradish Creme Fraiche & Apple Fennel Salad

Sea bass and turmeric potatoes in rasam broth, by Yotam Ottolenghi and Ramael Scully
I tried another recipe from cookbook Nopi today: a delicious sea bass recipe inspired by South Indian cuisine, bathing in a beautiful and tangy rasam broth, a soup eaten in South India that is traditionally prepared with tamarind (a sweet and sour pod-like fruit). The recipe does require some ingredients for which you would need…
Kerala fish fry & Cabbage Thoran
I fell in love with Keralan cuisine when we visited India 2 years ago. In this recipe I try to recreate my memory of some of the most wonderful dishes we have had in Kerala. Unfortunately you cannot enjoy the Kerala experience in Indian restaurants in NL, but hopefully, with these easy recipes, you can…
Vietnamese Prawn Skewers with Lemongrass
Vietnamese prawn skewers are an impressive dish to serve, and they are deceptively easy to make. Prawn skewers are low in fat and fun to serve as finger food at dinner parties. However, you could just as easily transform them into a complete dinner by combining them with some rice noodles, generous amounts of mint…
