Home-made flat bread with meat and cheese filling

More cuisines I discover for myself, more similarities I find. Actually I start thinking that before there was only one united cuisine.

Eggplant and potato wedges with tahini dressing

I love eggplants, especially from local produce! Here in Dubai they are very aromatic, delicate and full of flavor. When I used to live in Poland and Belarus, whenever I wanted to cook from the eggplants, first I had to soak them in salted water to remove bitterness. But here with local produce I don’t …

Noodles are one of the best dishes for kids. Kids love them plain, with sauces, with meat or with vegetables, fried and boiled. Our kids prefer them to have in Japanese style: with some basic vegetables and home-made sauce. It is the winner for lunch box as well.

Apple and three-cheese tart

For all CHEESE fans! To be honest, it is the best tart I’ve ever eaten! Not that I praised myself, but this recipe turned out to be a glory! A tart with caramelized apples and various kinds of cheeses is a water-mouthing dish! And don’t look that the recipe is a bit long – it’s …

Surimi and chicory salad

Chicory is one of the products that I have always bypassed in the shop. This time I decided to give myself a chance to create something eatable from it. As you know the taste of chicory is very specific and bitter. To reduce bitterness I put chicory in a sweetened water for few hours. It …

Coconut shrimps with rice sticks

I love Thai cuisine! Not too spicy, full of taste and colors. When cooking at home I don’t use chili pepper as we share Thai food with our young kids. So if you love spices just add few chili peppers while marinating shrimps and cooking them in coconut oil. Enjoy!

Kids’ favorite crêpes

I have tried so many recipes and combinations to made pancakes and crêpes, when finally developed my own one, preferred by my kids. Because it’s our kids who are the biggest consumers of this dish. Denis and Nikita love eating crêpes with pure sugar (with big crystals, when it crunches on the teeth) or with …

Sometimes it’s good to make, let say, fit diet day. This is the day when I completely exclude products containing gluten, fried, baked, sweet (except for a handful of dried fruits and 1-2 fresh fruits). Breakfast “in jars” can be prepared in advance and simply stored in the refrigerator for up to 2-3 days. Their …

Coconut matcha lace pancakes

These green pretties are also very light and delicious. As I love experimenting in my kitchen this time I did it with pancakes by changing the liquid part of a batter and way of cooking. Actually I have got the inspiration from Malaysian Roti Jala (means “net bread”), snack usually served with curry dishes. They …

Avocado salsa served with corn tostitos

Today’s dish seems too light to be served as a dinner. Well, this is the matter of your food preferences and routine. For example, in our family we eat a lot for breakfast, less for lunch, and really little for dinner. Dinner time is a time for seafood, salads or cheese with dried fruits. So …
