Zucchini Linguine
Today I’m sharing a dearest friend’s recipe. One of those dishes you try at somebody’s place, adopt, and each time you make it, you think of your friend. I’m thinking a lot about Sanja these days. She used to be an editor in a food magazine that I loved a lot and shared lots of...
Roasted Cauliflower Salad
I am into cauliflower a lot. Cooked, fried, roasted… I can even eat it raw. But the oven roasted cauliflower is the best. And if you are one of those people that do not like it, which I don’t get at all , you might give it a try this way. Also, when roasted, it...
Catalan Chickpeas
These are Catalan chickpeas, but believe me, where I come from, with some hot paprika added, it could be a chickpeas goulash :D Whatever, an extremely tasty dish it is! And it will go fine as a main dish for two people, or four, if it’s a side.

Eton Mess and How a Photo was Made

Roasted Asparagus, Poached Eggs and Hollandaise
Sometimes, if you are lucky, you can get really young asparagus. When they’re like that, it’s best to prepare them as simple as you can. You can steam them, for example. However, they’re so awesome when roasted in the oven you’ll never want to steam them again.

Kids mostly bought roasted sunflower or pumpkin seeds.But not me. I liked the chickpeas 8-) Kids hated them mostly. They hated the fact that...
Textured Soy and Brown Mushrooms Stew
Many people avoid textured soy protein saying that it’s bland and tasteless. But it doesn’t have to be. For example, this stew that my mother makes is totally fine.
Monkey Bread
Monkey bread. Gooey, cinnamon pull-apart bread. Perfect for breakfast, with a cup of milk. Packed with butter and sugar, but still, so good that nobody cares about calories.
Twice Cooked Chicken
I ate this for the first time last summer, when I visited Gaga and her village Sumrakovac. As I later found out, a lot of people batter chicken this way. First, you cook it to make soup, then you batter it into flour and eggs, season and fry. Chicken is tender and juicy, and batter...
Lemon Cider Chicken with 40 Cloves of Garlic
Now here is a recipe that merges three great ones. There’s Chicken with 40 cloves of garlic, Lemon chicken and Cider chicken. Turns out that combination of the three is quite good actually. With a little rosemary aroma, this recipe is a winner. The only thing I would change next time is to make it...
