  • Vegetarian lamachun

    Vegetarian lamachun

    Lamachun is a delicious turkish dish, often referred to as Turkish pizza. It is usually made with minced meat, but this is a vegetarian version that also tastes delicious!

  • Kayısı Tatlısı

    Kayısı Tatlısı

    Kayısı Tatlısı is a delicious arpicot desert from turkey. It is really sweet, but the addition of Tahini makes for a really balanced desert! And it is quite easy to put together, making it nice to finally finish that jar of tahini that’s been sitting at the back of the fridge for a while now

  • Kohlrabi soup with red curry

    Kohlrabi soup with red curry

    Kohlrabi is a bit of a difficult veggie. Some people love it raw, but it’s a bit particular. And when cooked, it often tastes a bit off. This recipe is a great way to use kohlrabi in a way that its flavour is not too overpowering while still coming through a bit.

  • Stuffed courgettes

    Stuffed courgettes

    A great summer recipe, good to deal with the courgettes overload if you’ve planted them in your garden. It can be eaten on its own or with a side of salad. And I recommend to make a bit more than you think you will eat, courgette is not particularly filling, so you might eat more than you think.

  • Naan

    Naan

    I don’t think it needs an introduction, most people know about naan. It’s not for everyone to make, because as any bread-ish dish, it’s a bit complicated and intimidating if you’ve never done it before. But if that’s what you’re into (like me), go for it!

  • Malai Kofta

    Malai Kofta

    It’s an indian dish that consists of potato + fresh cheese (paneer) deep fried balls, eaten with a delicious tomato sauce with tons of spices. It’s a bit time consuming, as you need to prepare the balls and deep fried them, but worth it if you have time.

  • Ginger bug

    Ginger bug

    A ginger bug is a wild yeast and bacterial culture. It’s basically the same thing as a sourdough, but to make drinks instead of bread. You can mix it with any sweet liquid (juice, water + sirup of your choice…) into food-grade, pressure safe bottles, and let it sit for a few days (burping every day to release pressure) and...

  • Chocolate pudding

    Chocolate pudding

    As it turns out, making chocolate pudding from scratch, is very easy. You just need a few ingredients that you most likely already have at home. I figured this out as I was at home, late, craving for a dessert and thought “corn starch kind of makes everything thick, could that be how they make pudding?”. Turns out, it is....

  • Vegan stir fry

    Vegan stir fry

    This isn’t a recipe for a single dish, but rather the basics for sort of a sauce that will enable you to do many dishes. I eat some variation of this several times a week, and it never disappoints. The sauce has very 3 basic elements, to which you can add whatever your heart desires, and you can use it...

  • Shrikhand

    Shrikhand

    Shrikhand is a delicious joghurt based dessert from India. It’s very simple to make, it’s just joghurt mixed with spices. It’s great if you have guests and don’t feel like making a complicated dessert (or if you aren’t very good at making desserts). It will get your guests think you’re a great cook, saying “oh wow, that’s really delicious, would...
