Fish Fillet in Parcel

Baked in parchment paper.          


Varsatile meal: You can use the fish fillet of your preference and any vegetables/ herbs/greens are in season or you have around.



 I chose perch fillet with seasonal greens (slender amaranth), parsley, 2-3 fresh shallots, carrots and sliced tomato.

Let's paint the dish, ladies Greens first and mr Fillet after them!

Pan mushrooms, coconut milk, cheeses [mozzarella & regato] and spices till blend.
Split the dough into two parts, one for the base and the second as a lid for the pie.

Cool Pancakes


HELLO! How are you my ladies and gents?

 Today I prepared for you [actually.. for me and my bf] a fluffy-cool-yummy-delicious dessert. 
One of the reasons that I love blogging is that makes me attempt new recipes. And for me, pancakes and other -like jam- are new!

I have organized my summer vacations in August, because me and Harry have to finish our final project for Uni. As I told you is a bit hard to live in a greek city in the heart of summer, but the sales season make it more easy for me! So, almost every day, I'm taking a walk through the stores to find the best opportunities for me. 

Let's go back to pancakes now! You need just 15 minutes from your day time to try this and believe me    it's worth your time. 
  All you need is:

--------


Ingredients:
  • 3/4 cup milk
  • 2 tablespoons white vinegar
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons white sugar
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 egg
  • 2 tablespoons butter, melted
  • cooking spray

Combine milk with vinegar in a medium bowl and set aside for 5 minutes to "sour".

Combine flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a large mixing bowl. Whisk egg and butter into "soured" milk. Pour the flour mixture into the wet ingredients and whisk until lumps are gone.

Heat a large skillet over medium heat, and coat with cooking spray. Pour 1/4 cupfuls of batter onto the skillet, and cook until bubbles appear on the surface. Flip with a spatula, and cook until browned on the other side.

  • You can watch the recipe here.


I choose for the top a frozen greek yogurt with honey and nuts, cherries and dark chocolate. The extra honey on the top of the top mean the end of photo shooting because Harry couldn't wait anymore to taste it!
  • --------

Enjoy!








Wish you all a wonderful day and I'm waiting to hearing from you!

Fried Eggs

..over pita bread
I could call it "mini egg pizza"..
I used a delicious tomato-sauce-appetizer [mix of tomato, eggplant, carrot and herbs] made by a small partnership nearby my hometown.
First version with beans and the second one with mushrooms and cherry tomatoes..
[do not forget the turkey fillet in the middle]

I have nothing more today than a very simple recipe..
I apologize for not blogging often but my exams period has already started and I have hard study because I'm so close to my graduation..

Thank you so much for your sweet comments! You really make my day and make me wanna be a better blogger :)
So, I have to go back to study now.. [Wish me luck]
Have a wonderful summery time!

Smoked Pork Chops


 Marinade with aromatic olive oil, fresh lemon thyme and spices.
Add the chops for a minute to the pan [ these step is not necessary] and then cook in preheated oven to 200°C (390°F) for about 20 minutes..
Sauce: Add mushrooms to the same pan and cook until mushrooms begin to soften.
Add white wine to deglaze and then add the mustard and broth. Bring to a boil, then simmer until sauce is reduced by about half.

I served 2 medallions with sauce and green salad!
 Now I'm hungry..
Hope you like it!
..and don't forget---> FiC's Twitter account [ @Fashion_iCook] and Bloglovin' of course :)

Chicken Fajitas


 Quick n Easy
I bought a pack which contains the most ingredients (flour tortillas, sauce, salsa chili powder)
, so the extras are the colourful peppers, 1 onion and 2 skinless, boneless chicken breastes..

the pack
Slice the chicken lengthways into long strips, roughly the same size as the capsicum strips..
 As the pan is really hot, keep turning the pieces of chicken and vegetables over so they don'’t burn – I just want them to lightly chargrill to give you a lovely flavour..
My latest tasty morsel!

How do you think about this fast recipe? We just wanted to avoid the delivery :)
Wish you a wonderful new week!
