I made this dish twice already, and I can say that it really benefits from spending the night in the fridge, as many of the stews do.

Simple recipes that everyone can make, even beginners.
Tuna steaks with blitva
Chicken piccata
Yeah, now I understand why it’s so tasty, when it has so much butter…
The eternal words to live by. This is a recipe that has it all: tasty, simple, posh. Serve it with some mashed potatoes, and you will not be sorry.
Lamb and peas
What says “spring” more than lamb & peas? I made this dish for my own selfish pleasure, as the boyfriend doesn’t really like peas, while I adore them.
I took the recipe from a Croatian cookbook I own, and you can really get this typical Croatian vibe in the dish: the flavours are very mellow, the lamb and the peas shine, and there is not much to hide behind.
Crème Pâtissière
This is a classic, if I ever saw one. The pastry cream that can be used to fill cream puffs, vlaai, fruit tarts… The recipe is directly taken from Michel Roux’s Pastry book.
Chorizo pasta
Spicy sauce with the Spanish sausage, add to that some very nice pasta, and you have yourself dinner fit for a king.
I made this dish using only ingredients I had at hand after not going to the store for four days—a long time in my world. Come to think of it, maybe you will learn more about me than about the recipe, knowing which things I hoard at home. Current count of tomato cans at home: 10.
