Recipes for traditional Christmas food including mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables and meats, pies and cakes and delicious salads.
Juicy, soft and at the same time crispy chicken thigh tenderloins are a great idea for dinner. Until now, I only made chicken breasts coated in cornflakes. This time I decided to try to preparing thighs in the same way. First, I coated the thigh tenderloins in flour mixed with spices then in egg and…
Sponge cakes with fruits and whipped cream always look good and taste fantastic. They are not at all complicated to make and any fruit can be used for their preparation. At the weekend I was tempted to make a peach cake for one reason: I bought jelly with various flavors as if there was no…
Almost all cakes that require baking are more or less time-consuming. You can find recipes for both on the blog. Today’s cake belongs to the former category. The cake recipe that I share with you is for a coffee Swiss roll with coffee cream. It is a cake that requires baking, however, due to the…
Poppy cakes are primarily baked during the Easter period. Next to cheesecakes they are another showcase of that festive period. Of course, nowhere it is said that, apart from Easter, you cannot bake these cakes 🙂 I actually use poppy seeds only for cakes. I do not make other dishes from them. Yeast buns with…

When it comes to Christmas cookies, the first thing that pops into my mind is, of course, gingerbread. The basis of every good gingerbread cookie is honey and various spices. Gingerbread cookies can be filled with marmalade, covered with chocolate or decorated with icing. It all depends on what final effect you are going for….
Potatoes are one of the more popular vegetables. They are cheap, tasty and you can use them for a whole range of dishes. Every year, I impatiently wait for the moment when new potatoes appear on the market. I can eat them to the point of being stuffed. I usually serve them with butter and…
Cheesecake is one of those traditional cakes baked in every home from time to time. I go for cheesecakes mainly during the Christmas season. Sometimes, however, I also bake it even when there is no special occasion. What I like the most to me are the various “fancy” cheesecakes, such as fruit, foam, cocoa cake…
