Notes

Most recipes here aren't actually mine, it's just what I like.

cafedelites.com has lots of great recipes

Washing raw meat under running water is a great way to splash bacteria everywhere.

When using convection mode(hot air) instead of conduction when using the oven, subtract 15°C and 25% time.

1L of granulated sugar = 845.35g

1L of flour = 540g

Soups

Mushroom veggie

Ingredients

Roux

Post flavor

Directions

  1. If you're using dried mushrooms, put them in cold tap water 2 hours ahead.
    When they've absorbed the water, sift the rest of the water away

  2. Melt butter in a small pot.

Ingredients for Marinade

Ingredients for Sauce

Side ingredients

Directions

  1. In a bowl, combine chicken with all of the ingredients for the chicken marinade; let marinate for 10 minutes to an hour (or overnight if time allows).

  2. Heat oil in a large skillet or pot over medium-high heat. When sizzling, add half the chicken pieces, making sure not to crowd the pan. Fry until fully cooked and heavily browned. Set aside and keep warm (putting a small plate over a bowl works wonders). Scrape all the burnt bits from the pan (not with metal tools!). Repeat with the other half.

  3. Melt the butter in the same pan. Fry the onions until soft (about 3 minutes).

  4. Add garlic and ginger and sauté for 1 minute until fragrant, then add garam masala, cumin, turmeric, chili, salt and coriander. Fry for about 20 seconds until fragrant, while stirring occasionally.

  5. Pour in the tomato puree. Let simmer for about 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally until sauce thickens and becomes a deep brown red colour.

  6. Stir the cream, milk and sugar through the sauce. Add the chicken and its juices back into the pan and cook for an additional 5(was 8-10, not needed for so long since we cook chicken first) minutes the sauce is thick and bubbling. Pour in the water to thin out the sauce, if needed.

  7. Optionally garnish with cilantro (coriander) and serve with hot garlic butter rice and fresh homemade Naan bread! Though I simply serve with jasmine rice.

Pasta with chicken breast and mushrooms

mushroompasta.jpg

Ingredients

Directions

  1. Add butter to a medium hot large pan, add half the chicken meat(so the pan doesn't get crowded). Add salt, pepper, oregano and basil (0.5 tsp of each per batch) to the meat. When the meat is fully cooked, up the heat to max, it will get crunchy and brown. This requires the pan to be dry, so if you added too much butter, you might have to wait. Put the meat aside in a bowl. Repeat for the other half.
  2. Cook pasta in salty water according to recipe or package directions. Make the sauce while the pasta cooks.
  3. Clean any leftover meat from your pan, heat olive oil over medium heat.
  4. Add mushrooms to oil and sauté until mushrooms have reduced in size, about 4 minutes. If the mushrooms soak up all the olive oil, add another teaspoon.
  5. Add garlic, green onions, salt and pepper to mushrooms and stir to combine. Cook until garlic is fragrant and mushrooms have released some additional liquid, about one minute.
  6. Add flour to saucepan and stir to incorporate all ingredients. Let cook for 30 seconds or so.
  7. Add about 1dl of the milk and stir to break up any lumps of the mushroom and flour mixture. The milk will thicken fairly quickly; that’s okay. Add the milk little by little and stir to incorporate all ingredients. Do not use more than medium heat or you will get the milk catching to the pan and burning.
  8. Bring sauce to a simmer and cook until milk has thickened, about 5 minutes.
  9. Add salt, pepper, oregano and basil (1 tsp of each).
  10. Remove sauce from heat and stir in parmesan cheese. Stir in the chopped parsley.
  11. Garnish with extra parmesan and parsley and serve immediately.

Ours

Ingredients

Directions

  1. Prepare your side dish

  2. Preheat oven to 200°C

  3. Pluck any leftover feathers from the chicken

  5. Salt the chicken a bit

  6. Add some grill spice, cumin, and optionally chili spice.

  7. For the best result turn the chicken around and spice from the other side too.

  8. If you want sauce, slice butter into small slices and put it on top of the chicken pieces

  10. Bake at 200°C for about 45 minutes

  11. Take the top part of the pan off

  13. If you're using a deep pan to get sauce, after the pan has cooled down, pour about half of the leftover water/sauce from the pan onto your side dish

Ingredients

Pizza

This recipe is for 2 to 5 pizzas depending on how much you let the dough rise and how thick your pizzas are. Keep that in mind.

Ingredients - Dough

Ingredients - Base topping

Ingredients - Second layer of the topping

Directions - Dough

  1. Mix dry ingredients first. Not yeast, YEAST GOES IN AT STEP 4.

  2. Add water to the mix, stir.

  3. Add oil to the mix and stir until well combined.

  4. If the dough is a little too wet, add more flour. After both wet and dry ingredients are added, add yeast. Break the yeast apart in small pieces and knead it into the dough.

  5. After the mixture is ready, leave the dough in the bowl and put the bowl in the oven to rise (with appropriate oven mode), or if you don't have a fancy oven, leave the bowl on a counter with a kitchen towel on top, keeping the air inside. Let it rise until it's about twice the size.

Directions - Base Topping

  1. Add all dry ingredients first, and mix them up.

  2. Add one wet ingredient at a time, mix after each ingredient is added.

  3. The topping should be ready to use right after preparing it.

  4. Roll out the dough on a baking paper (keep in mind it will rise to twice the size in the oven).

  5. Smear the topping over the dough. You can either smear it all over or you can leave a little space all around the sides and you can fold the edges, which gives you a nice, crunchy crust.

  6. Add the rest of the topping ingredients to the pizza.

  7. Bake at 240°C for 7-15 minutes, depending on the thickness of the dough.

Steaks

Chicken steaks - buy some meat, beat it a little, put it in the spice paper(yes I'm lazy), heat the pan up on the oven(heat:4).

After it's heated up, put the meat with the spice paper in it, cook it for 5 minutes from one side and for 5 minutes from the other side

Egg bread

Ingredients

Directions

  1. Put frying pan on very high heat and cover the whole pan in oil

  2. Put eggs in a container, mix with a fork, add cheese and mix again

  3. Put mixture on half a bread slice and throw the slice on the hot pan, with the mixture on the bottom obviously

  4. Do not move the slice until it's ready(about 1min), as moving it around or checking on it will make it unstick from the pan and you don't want that

  5. If you want the mixture on both sides, simply cover the other side before the first one is done and flip it

  6. Repeat steps 3-6 while adding cooking oil if there's empty spots on the pan after finishing up a slice

  7. You can obviously do multiple slices in one go if your pan can fit it

  8. Enjoy!

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 225C

Horkovzdušnou troubu zapneme, aby se vyhřála na 180 °C. Nachystáme si formu na dort. Vytřeme ji tukem a vysypeme hrubou moukou. Já používám formu o průměru 22 cm. Pokud máte větší, je to jedině dobře. Ideální je forma o průměru 26 cm.

V míse smícháme sypké suroviny (čokoládové pudinky, prášek do pečiva, moučkový cukr), pak vmícháme vejce a olej (nejlépe elektrickým mixérem). Těsto vlijeme do nachystané formy a dáme péct do předehřáté trouby. Těsto pečeme asi 20 minut. Upečený korpus poznáme tak, že se lehce odklápí od dortové formy a že se těsto nelepí na špejli.

Než se těsto upeče, nachystáme si krém. Šlehačky ušleháme do tuha. Vmícháme želatinový ztužovač, připravený podle návodu na obalu. Já používám Želatinový ztužovač Dr.Oetker (odpovídá 6 plátkům želatiny). Ten připravíme tak, že do 100 ml vlažné vody vsypeme obsah sáčku a mícháme asi 30 sekund. Poté rychle vmícháme do šlehačky a mícháme elektrickým mixérem asi 2 minuty. Přidáme asi 20 g mletého cukru (nebo víc, podle chuti), v mixéru rozmixovaný banán a čokoládu rozkrájenou na malé kousky. Takto připravený krém dáme asi na 30 minut do lednice, aby před použitím ještě trochu ztuhl.

Upečený korpus necháme zchladnout. Poté ho přendáme na talíř a lžící vydlabeme asi 1,5 cm do hloubky a necháme asi 1 cm široký okraj. Vydlabanou část korpusu v misce rozdrobíme. Vydlabaný korpus poklademe banány rozkrájenými na půlky, rozkrojenou částí dolů. Použila jsem víc banánů, proto jsem je na korpus dala celé/kulaté). Šlehačkový krém navršíme na korpus kopulovitě až k okraji a posypeme rozdrobeným korpusem.

Domácí krtkův dort dáme do lednice a necháme alespoň 3 hodiny ztuhnout. Domácí krtkův dort podáváme vychlazený.

Ingredients - crust

Ingredients - filling

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  2. Mix 2 cups flour, butter, and 1/2 cup white sugar together in a bowl until crumbly; press into the bottom of a 12x9-inch baking dish.
  3. Bake in preheated oven until crust is light brown, 25 to 30 minutes.
  4. Beat eggs, 1 cup sugar, and 6 tablespoons flour together in a bowl until smooth; add rhubarb, coconut, lemon juice, and vanilla extract and stir to coat. Pour the rhubarb mixture over the crust.
  5. Bake in preheated oven until the fruit layer is set, 35 to 40 minutes. Let bars cool completely before serving.

Depending on how much you like the taste of rhubarb, you can add more sugar or even less. If you don't like rhubarb add two cups of sugar. The coconut can be a bit stringy so optionally put into a food processor to chop into finer pieces. This option can also be applied to the rhubarb for a smoother consistency overall.
