My curry recipe


Chicken curry



I am a self confessed food junkie!
Like i LOOOOVE food...
I mean if i had the choice of shopping for food or shopping for clothes, i`d probably pick food...
(ok,slight exaggeration there, but you get what i mean...i LOVE Food!!)

 I can`t eat most processed foods, i`ll basically be writhing in pain for hours after eating.
So i have to make my Food from scratch. (Good thing i love to Cook)

So i thought i`d share how i make my curry.

 
Recipe
 
4 fillets of chicken ( or any other meat/Fish)
1 onion, sliced
4-6 mushrooms sliced
1 can lentils (any kind is fine, remember to them rinse well)
1 can beans (any kind is fine,remember to them rinse well)
2 tbsp concentrated chicken Stock
100-200 ml water.
250 ml coconut milk
2 tsp curry powder
chili flakes
2 tsp flour
Salt + pepper
2-3 cloves garlic or 1 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp onion powder
 
On medium/high heat fry the chicken and onion until the chicken is cooked through.
Add the  flour and combine and stir well so the flour doesn`t burn, add the water and coconut milk, keep stirring.
 
Add the chicken Stock,mushrooms, chili flakes, garlic, onion Powder, curry powder,salt and pepper.
Let it simmer until sauce is thick, if its too thick, just add more liquid. continue to stir.
 
Add lentils and beans  let simmer for 5-10 min.

Waffles Norwegian style.

 
 
 


Waffles or vaffler as we call them, are one of the most popular treats here in Norway.
If we could we`d eat waffles every day i`m sure.

I don`t think i know a single Norwegian who doesn`t love waffles.
We love it more than cake......well,most of us.
We`ll have our waffle and eat it too! lol.

So,i thought i`d share my recipe with you.


Vaffler! ( large batter.)

400 grams Sugar, (I use half,I prefer it a little less sweet)
500 grams butter ,melted (Use real butter!!)
1 kg wheat flour
1 liter buttermilk
1 liter Whole milk (you can use only milk if you prefer ,and skip buttermilk)
2 tsp Vanilla extract
2 tsp baking soda
2 tsp baking powder
3 eggs

In a large bowl, add  all the dry ingredients.
mix it and combine well.
add all the wet ingredients and mix well.
Let the batter sit in the fridge 10-20 min before making the waffles,to let the batter swell a little.

We use the "standard" waffle irons, NOT the Belgian style waffle iron.

 
Heart Waffle Maker.  present, someday.

If you want a healthier Version:

-use 1/4 cup stevia instead of  sugar
-use low fat milk
-use 500 grams Whole wheat flour , 250 grams Oats and 250 grams regular wheat flour.
(or 750 grams Whole wheat and 250 regular wheat.
-use 100 grams butter,or skip it, or add olive or coconut oil


What we put on the waffle is maybe a little unusual.....
We have a cheese here we call Brunost (Brown cheese)
It sounds horrible,but it`s not. It has a caramel like flavour.
Us Norwegians are crazy about it.

 
Nordic Nibbler: Brunost, Norwegian Brown Cheese.........after you make mozzarella use the whey to make ricotta then use they whey to make this brown cheese:)

norwegian-food-vafler-waffles. My friend Heidi made these for us and they were amazing. Going to try it. LS

And many put a little strawberry jam on top of the Brunost.
Others prefer sour cream and jam (raspberry or strawberry.)
But of course,you put what ever you like on Your waffle.


Hope you`ll give the recipe a try.

Until Next time,

Have a great day

Healthy Soda recipe...

 
 




I have more or less stopped drinking soda.
Because when i drink them, i can`t stop!
And we all know they are full of chemicals and additives that is NOT good for our bodies.
Sugary or diet soda, they`re ALL the same.....unhealthy and addictive!
So I came up with my own Soda.
It`s Natural and.....(TADAAAA), HEALTHY!! woohoo!!
I always try to find or make a healthy alternative to the junk out there...as much as i can.
I`ll indulge in unhealthy treats too, but i like to limit it.

So how to make this wonderful, delicious and absolutely AWESOME soda?
well, i`m glad you asked ;)

You`ll need:

-Sparkling water
-stevia
-pressed juice (NOT from concentrate!!!! and preferably Organic) if you press Your own,even better!

I usually make it a glass at a time, but you can make larger portions if you want.
But you shouldn`t drink more than 1-2 glasses.
Everything in moderation, as they say.

For 1 large glass (400 ml)

1/2-1 tsp stevia powder (or 2-4 drops liquid stevia)
150 -200 ml Fruit juice ( i use pomegranate,but any juice is fine.)
200-250 ml Sparkling water

Add stevia first,
then add the juice, stir a little to dissolve the stevia.
Then add the Sparkling water.
ENJOY!
                                

  


Now you can drink soda without feeling guilty and without chemicals to poison Your body. :)

Hope you`ll give the recipe a try.






Have a great day!!

Xoxo
