Delicious Side Dish

I’m constantly harassed by Cookies for making rice, pots, or the infamous couscous (w/cucumbers) to accompany our dinners, that he is tired of it, dearly 0_o. The bitching about it, also annoyed me… dearly 0_o but made me also look deeper into food that accompanies

Tortellini salad Since I like polish pierogies so damn much, it’s no wonder that I like any other kind of stuffed dough meal. One of my favourites are tortellinis.  Origins of tortellini you can look in Castelfranco Emilia italian province of Modena. There is at 

Crab Sticks Dinner

Crab Sticks Dinner

When I was younger I never liked seafood, also wasn’t big fan of fish. But now, when I’m OLD (according to Cookies) I like many things more. I believe it’s the natural way of the taste buds evolving, though I still hate canned peas and cooked milk 0_o. When I was going to kindergarten the method was that every kid had to eat everything on the plate… so yeah this caused some food trauma for the rest of my life I believe. I never cook what I don’t like. So, when I tried crab sticks first time I was in awe, cos without spices it has a very good taste itself. Like I make this crab sticks salad – nothing to spice it up is really needed. Since we got a good amount in our last shopping spree I was thinking what to do – found couple recipes that was salads but Cookies is not very fond of food that he thinks is not cooked… so I had to come up with another idea. Then found this coated crab sticks recipe and thought his inner child won’t bitch 0_o.

Ingredients
16 pieces package of crab sticks
5 dag mozzarella (completely optional, I had a leftover from making pizza the day before)
1 egg
1 tbsp milk
3 tbsp flour
3 tbsp bread crumbs

Preparations:
Patiently unpack each crab stick. Yes, you are allowed to swear :D. I had to unpack double amount, cos I wanted my favourite work lunch salad 0_o. Mix the egg with milk on one plate, put flour on the second and bread crumbs mixed with shredded mozzarella on the third – no worries, Cookies will wash the dishes :D. Even yours if you want, he’s good AT THAT  0_o

Start coating with flour – roll stick to cover thinly, move to egg/milk mixture then to bread crumbs with cheese. Before you start, you can start heating pan with oil. After you roll all sticks in coating, place each one on the hot pan and fry until browned.

Serve with whatever you feel – I served with rice and cucumber salad – cos after unpacking so much crab sticks I didn’t feel like complicating my life more 0_o.

Until next time, take care of yourself and each other 0_o

P.S.Cookies was totally and completely satisfied, UNBELIEVABLE. I think HELL FROZE over in the process of this “SATISFACTION”.

I thought it wouldn’t be possible… This is POST #20! It’s no wonder nor a mystery that we like pizza. We ordered humongous 4 seasons pizza from Biesiadlowo and enjoyed every piece ;-). Since I don’t have oven at the moment I thought cooking a

Hot potato caprese…

  Last couple days I didn’t cook much. All because of this damn heat. Everyday over 90F (32C) and almost 100% humidity, you already feel like flowing in the freaking soup much less cooking one… Yesterday we simply ate fries that Cookies masterfully made. Always

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.
