Dirty Rice Before I met Cookies I thought that American cuisine is mostly hamburgers and fried chicken oh and apple pie 0_o. I know stereotypical, but I didn’t have a chance to change that thinking. I got the chance after Cookies and I created the …
I love to stuff things into the meat 0_o
LOL now I read the title again and just, well… But yeah I do, my first stuffing was nice turkey rolls I made with mushrooms and and ricotta cheese, and one day I’ll make it so you can ALSO make it! :-). This time I wanted a rest from chicken and bought some nice lean pork loin cutlets. At first I had a problem with the size of the meat 0_o, sorry… It was just too damn small… ffs… but the butcher lady at Peter&Paul meat department solved it by cutting thick portions of meat and running it couple times through a meat softener machine… it was neat and it made my cutlets big and fluffy… You will need some mushrooms and butter… and as always it’s easy, just takes a little time, cos for 5 cutlets you need plenty of mushrooms – it loses volume while frying.
Ingredients:
5 pork loin cutlets
60 dag white mushrooms
2 shallots or 1 medium red onion
oil + 1 tbsp butter
salt, pepper
thyme, summer savory (cząber)
Preparations:
If you can’t ask the butcher to fluff your cutlets 😉 beat it good to make it as big as possible and not too thick. Spice it nicely with salt and pepper, thyme and savory (savory is optional – I just like it’s spicy, almost pepper like flavour). Set cutlets aside, while you deal with mushrooms. Chop it small cos you want to be able to bend it ;-). Chop shallots and toss on hot oil with butter, fry like 30s then toss mushrooms, stir thoroughly to coat ingredients with oil, fry until soft and browned. If there is too much water – drain it, you want fried mushrooms not stewed ones ;-).
Put big portion of mushroom mixture on the meat and use toothpicks or metal meat skewers to seal it. Grill your pockets until golden brown… Served it with basmati rice spiced with a little soy sauce and butter with PARSLEY and salad of your choice.
Until next time, take care of yourself and each other 0_o

Royal Cutlets on Yellow Wax Beans Since I started blogging I wanted to cook this one meal. It’s extremely easy, yet very stunning and elegant. I think I ate it the first time at a dinner that was served by my Godmothers mother-in-law, I think, …
Feta Pulpetki, disaster or success? As today is Sunday, I wanted to shine in the kitchen and make something completely new plus that was very vegetarian… I was deliberating if I should post it, but since I’m not a fancy chef I’m prone to mistakes. …
Well, it’s happening. Cookies was working on me for months to start my own blog. He was saying how easy my cooking is and how I should share the idea of simple meals that anybody can do. No fancy products, just things you can simply afford and find in the nearest store. Did I mention I love to cook? I do. Most of my time I’m looking for new recipes, searching the Internet and finding really nice ideas and inspirations. Always changing recipe for my taste and what I have in my kitchen. For example… everything I cook has to be grilled, fried, boiled or steamed… cos I don’t have an oven right now.
You will ask: how can you handle?
I say: easily, I just adjust.
I like to share my recipes with my friends, who always look for ideas and fast meals. We all work and have no time to do complicated stuff. The idea for the recipes I do is: it has to be simple and take a small amount of time. I’m kind of clumsy and not coordinated too good 0_o hahahah, yes. if anything can be dropped… it will be. Believe me on that, you can ask Cookies… well… on the second thought maybe not 🙂
For days I was procrastinating which recipe to choose as my first post and couldn’t decide. And as always, I just had to wait a little and it came completely natural. Today I prepared HOT MUSHROOM SALAD. Got inspired by a recipe on the Polish site (mniammniam.com).
The recipe is simple and takes not more than 30 minutes.
