|---|---|---|---|---|
| Opa's Tomato Squid and Chorizo | Boris Mann | No votes | This is called "Opa's" because my dad has made this (or something similar to it) for a long time. The three basic ingredients always remain the same: sauted squid, tomatoes, and some sort of meat. Opa usually uses some nice thick cut bacon or some German speck. | |
| Grated Carrot, Peach, and Parsley Salad | Boris Mann | I usually do an Asian-style grated carrot salad with sesame oil, but the meal I was making was very mediterranean. I was going for something light and summery, and I think it worked really well as a palate cleanser / small starter. Next time I would adjust it to have a little more zing: it was a bit too sweet, so maybe balsamic vinegar would have gone better. | ||
| New Potato Salad with Creamy Mustard Sauce | Boris Mann | No votes | I never make mayonnaise-based potato salads, but lean towards German-style vinegar dressings. I often add mustard because a) I love Dijon and b) it adds a bit of creamyness. This particular mix has me adding cream cheese, because it happened to be sitting around and seemed a good fit for the fresh mint. | |
| Baked Indian Eggplant with Cilantro and Garlic | Boris Mann | No votes | I often make eggplant slices baked in the oven, and when I saw these "baby" eggplants, I thought they would be good whole. And they are! Here's a page with a bunch of different kinds of eggplants pictured: http://www.evergreenseeds.com/oreg.html | |
| Simple Meatloaf | Alex Rollin | No votes | This is a simple meatloaf that can be baked in a convection oven like the ones in use in Shanghai. | |
| White Cabbage Lamb Casserole (Weisskrauteintopf - Lahana Basdi Kelam) | Boris Mann | No votes | A Turkish - German casserole featuring layers of cabbage and the kick of cayenne | |
| Spätzle | Boris Mann | No votes | Traditional southern German recipe for home made egg noodles. Perfect side dish for any meat dish with good sauce or gravy, and excellent as pan fried leftovers. | |
| Wrap with Goat Yogurt, Salmon and Dill | Alexa Booth | Hints of Greek Food, creamy, and tasty | ||
| Salmon with Mashed Potato and Apple | Alexa Booth | No votes |
A very simple, quick recipe created to use up the apples in my fridge from the fall. | |
| Oven Roasted Winter Vegetables | Anne Mann | No votes |
This recipe came from Isa Duffek (Bowen Islander, originally from Austria). I substituted Yukon Gold potatoes for the little red potatoes. Next time I would use more Rosemary, but I am still trying to nurture the little offshoot from the big Rosemary bush that didn't survive the last winter, so Rosemary gets used sparingly for now. | |
| Wild Salmon & Zucchini Curry | Alexa Booth | No votes | A delicious, quick to prepare recipe with fresh wild salmon, and veggies! | |
| Maple Syrup Meatloaf | Boris Mann | A random night's meatloaf that turned out tasty | ||
| Lemony Yogurt Mashed Potatoes | Boris Mann | Savory mashed potatoes with a bit of kick from added horseradish | ||
| Spaghetti with Onions | Boris Mann | No votes | The last of my "what to do with too many onions?" recipes. | |
| Pasta with caramelized onions & blue cheese | Boris Mann | No votes | Another recipe I found while looking at how to use up a bunch of onions. | |
 | Shredded Beef and Cheese Platter | Steven | No votes |
Snack or dinner, depending on size. Lots of different flavors and textures combining. |
| Turkey in sweet-sour sauce | itkovian | No votes | A sweet-sour turkey dish, with raisins and onions. Serve for example with beans rolled in bacon, steamed pears with berries, and croquettes. Instead of turkey, you can also use chicken breast or porc. | |
| Rotkohl - Braised Red Cabbage | Anne Mann | No votes | Traditionally eaten with roast, this is a simple vegetable dish, and the taste relies mainly on the quality of the cabbage. | |
 | Coconut Pineapple Squash Curry | Boris Mann | No votes |
A sweet curry with lots of vegetables |
 | Tomato Cheese Shrimp Garlic Extravaganza | Steven |
Pasta dish with simple ingredients that tastes fabulous. | |
 | Schwäbischer Zwiebelkuchen (Onion Quiche) | Anne Mann |
I had a huge pile of onions starting to go bad, and, looking for a recipe requiring lots of onions, I found this "Zwiebelkuchen", available everywhere in South Germany and in the Southwest of France where wine is made. It is best eaten with new wine, that is still sweet, but also a bit sour. | |
 | Rosemary Garlic Pork with Honey Balsamic Sauce | Boris Mann | No votes |
Italian flavours make these pork chops |
| Shrimp on Toast | haggaret | Shrimp, rice, tomato soup, what's not to love?! | ||
| Black Bean, Tomato and Feta Sauce | smithdm3 | Black beans combined with tomatoes with a jolt of hot sauce, lime and spices. | ||
 | Gado Gado | Kate Dickerson | No votes |
North American version of an Indonesian standard dish -- roughly potatoes, cauliflower, and peanut-butter based sauce. |
