I’m not the biggest tofu fan in the world, but tofu atsuage has become a must for me. It is a Japanese tofu, “atsuage” meaning “thick and fried”. Pan-fried, with a miso-based sauce, it gives a truly excellent result! You can serve it with whatever you want: vegetables, rice etc. In addition, this dish is suitable for totally vegan people.
It’s still summer vacation and I want to extend the feeling a little bit! This is not strictly speaking a recipe, but an idea for a salad where the elements work well together! It’s fresh, light and absolutely delicious and nourishing. The sauce, with its touch of toasted sesame oil, will give the whole a beautiful exotic tone. Don’t hesitate to add dried fruits, such as peanuts or roasted almonds, and aromatic herbs!
These are the deliciously tasty Greek tomato fritters, domatokeftedes. I made them with cherry tomatoes, but you can make them with large tomatoes. The advantage is that they are completely vegan. Very crispy, I find them irresistible!
After returning from Greece, where I ate a different baklava almost every day, I felt like making the rather Turkish version again, with that crinkly texture that gives a wonderful crunch. You can of course put any dried fruit you like (almonds, pistachios, hazelnuts, cashews). This little sweetness is very easy to make and will be ready in no time!
As promised, I am back on the blog with new recipes after several trips. I went to Greece, which I loved a few years ago, and I really wanted to make these zucchini and feta fritters again, full of flavor, with dill and mint. They’ll be delicious crisp and warm, with a simple, fresh, lightly salted Greek yogurt. The contrast is fantastic!
I have been a total fan of sushi, sashimi, maki, temaki etc. for a long time. Even if of course the expertise is reserved to real professionals, we can still enjoy at home with temaki ready in less than an hour for a meal that will make your taste buds travel! You can of course adapt it to your desires and put the fish and garnish you prefer!
