Globe artichoke salad with potatoes

My experience with artichokes is limited but I did take the challenge on today to make this recipe for lunch. Not all went well, I left too many tough outer leaves on and my cooking time could have been a bit longer. But, all was eaten and gone before I looked again, so the taste…

Fish Cakes

As the amount of salmon fillet was a little bigger then 100g for my bunch, I did put the salmon in the oven to cook.  This dish is great for lunch with a nice salad. You might want to try the Coleslaw kimchi with it. We did, and it was a nice marriage. -enjoy- Tip:…

Harissa lamb, crispy carrot and haloumi burger

The carrots and ginger did not crisp up as much as I liked, the large volume (for 35 people!) in the oven made it too moist. But, if you serve this dish in smaller amounts you will manage to get it crispier. The taste of the harissa paste together with the lamb mince is delicious….

Caprese soup

Absolutely delicious! Do serve this dish at room temperature, when you taste it you will understand why. This soup is easy to make and you can leave it for a while to cool down. Would love to hear if you liked it! -enjoy- Ingredients 1 bulb of garlic 1 kg mixed tomatoes extra virgin olive…

Slut’s Spaghetti

Our Spanish & Italian Buxers new immediately what I meant with this dish: Spaghetti alla putana. A working girl’s pasta is what Jamie Oliver calls it… let’s stick with that translation. In all languages the translation of this pasta dish passed the table for lunch. That’s what you get when you put a bunch of…

Red Prawn and Mango Curry

This recipe did not go according to plan in my kitchen today, but the only one to blame for this was myself. No worries, lesson learned again. You only get better by making mistakes, somebody told me ones… or twice. 😉 The taste was nice but spicy, so keep on tasting the curry along the…

Sweetcorn Chowder With Toasted Tortillas

It’s Nigella (Lawson) week, so naughty food all week around! This chowder was easy to make, although I had to make a little adjustment cooking this recipe for 30 people. Instead of putting the first 4 ingredients in a food processor, I first did fry the spring onions in a little bit of vegetable oil…

Mixed mushrooms with cinnamon and lemon

This dish is easy to make and so delicious. The cinnamon, thyme and lemon juice make it all very special, a great lunch with some dark bread to soak up the juices. Thank you Ottolenghi for another lovely recipe! My team loved it. 🙂 Ingredients (serves 6-8) 400g button mushrooms 400g chestnut mushrooms 300g shiitake…

Rigatoni with fennel sausage sauce and pecorino-and-anchovy pesto

This recipe was a bit of work for 35 people, but we finished this Ottolenghi week off on a high. Definitely try this at home. Ingredients (serves 4) About 2½ tbsp olive oil 6 Italian fennel sausages (400g), cut into 1.5cm-thick slices 1 large onion, peeled and chopped 1 fennel bulb, trimmed and roughly chopped;…
