Roasted vegetable tartare is a great replacement for the meat version of this dish. I used three vegetables: eggplant, tomatoes and peppers to prepare this tartare.

Racuchy is a dish that I remember from my childhood. The best ones were made by my aunt. The batter from which these were made was sweetish, but the apples she used had a slightly tangy taste. Therefore, they perfectly matched the sweetness of the cakes and the additional caster sugar, which my aunt always…

A melt-in-the-mouth and creamy rice pudding that can be made very easily at home. You can serve it with melted butter and cinnamon, apples, pears or strawberries.

However, if you eat it too often, even that can become boring, so from time to time it’s worth replacing horseradish with something just as easy. A great replacement is…
Peri-peri sauce is one of the spicier sauces made from peppers. In the original recipe, this sauce is made from a chili pepper called peri-peri, hence the very name of the sauce.
