Chicken satay is a dish that comes from Indonesia, specifically the island of Java. Traditional satay is poultry, beef, pork or fish meat cut into smaller pieces, grilled in the form of a shashlik then served with either soy or peanut butter sauce. Taking inspiration from Thai cuisine, I have prepared satay marinated chicken drumsticks….
Cannelloni is an Italian pasta having the shape of large tubes. It is mostly stuffed. Any mixture of vegetables or meat or a combination of both can be used as a filling. Once stuffed, the cannelloni is baked with a sauce e.g. tomato or béchamel and often also sprinkled with cheese before being placed in…
Raw cabbage combined with sauerkraut and slightly spicy sausage creates sensational stew. The spicy sausage used in this dish is Debreceni sausage.

Offal are the internal organs of poultry such as the kidneys, hearts, liver and lungs. Some people are scared of eating these, but those who have tried a dish made of liver or lung at least once, know that these can be really tasty. Liver is the most popular and known from all of offal….

This pancake casserole with chicken and zucchini filling is a dish you must make. A casserole is a good way for using up meat leftovers we all have in our fridges. If you have cooked, fried or baked meat that you have not managed to eat, use it to prepare a filling for your pancakes….
These little cabbage rolls must be my favourite dish that can be made from cabbage. I like them most when they are first fried on fat then simmered in water or sauce until soft. From various reasons some people find this dish impossible to make. As far as I am concerned, I always found them…
If you are making a delicious dinner or lunch for your other half, I recommend fish. The healthier options are to bake or poach it, or in a heavier version you can fry it. Depending on what kind of fish you fancy, the selection is huge: you can choose from mackerel, monkfish, salmon, tuna, cod,…
