If you want to be a bit healthier then you can replace the egg noodles with some rice noodles. It only takes 20 minutes max to make.Thu, 05 May 2016 14:03:15 +0000Coriander and Lemon Bulgur Salad with Halloumihttps://niammy.com/mong/recipe/coriander-and-lemon-bulgur-salad-with-halloumi-179https://niammy.com/mong/recipe/coriander-and-lemon-bulgur-salad-with-halloumi-179This recipe is another example of ways to use up things in your fridge for lunch. I always have tomatoes, cucumber and some kind of lettuce. I chop up the ingredients add them to the cooked bulgur or couscous and add either some feta or halloumi. I garnish with a bit of fresh coriander and pack a simple lemon vinaigrette dressing.Thu, 28 Apr 2016 13:53:35 +0000Chicken Khao Soihttps://niammy.com/mong/recipe/chicken-khao-soi-178https://niammy.com/mong/recipe/chicken-khao-soi-178I make my own paste with a mixture of spices but for a speedy weeknight meal you can always make this using some red curry paste. But I recommend making your own as it is quick to make and tastes all the better for it!Thu, 28 Apr 2016 13:50:36 +0000Kerala Prawn Curryhttps://niammy.com/mong/recipe/kerala-prawn-curry-177https://niammy.com/mong/recipe/kerala-prawn-curry-177This quick and easy curry is a perfect blend of spice, creamy and fresh.

Thu, 28 Apr 2016 13:47:05 +0000Fattoush Saladhttps://niammy.com/mong/recipe/fattoush-salad-176https://niammy.com/mong/recipe/fattoush-salad-176 I am also a big fan of the fattoush – a salad of mixed herbs and packed with grilled pitta bread. Often make this recipe in the spring/ summer months as it is light and quick to make. I griddle the pitta bread to give it a real charred taste. The sumac and lemon dressing is where the flavour is really at!Thu, 28 Apr 2016 13:44:48 +0000Asparagus Wrapped in Ham with a Hollandaise Saucehttps://niammy.com/mong/recipe/asparagus-wrapped-in-ham-with-a-hollandaise-sauce-175https://niammy.com/mong/recipe/asparagus-wrapped-in-ham-with-a-hollandaise-sauce-175This makes for a lovely starter or as a main with some plain potatoes on the side to soak up the sauce. I make a quick hollandaise that saves you time from standing over the pan making sure that the sauce does not split. I first made this as a quick alternative for an Eggs Benedict breakfast when no one wants to be standing over a pan for too long in the morning! I add plenty of fresh parsley t...Thu, 28 Apr 2016 13:40:35 +0000Kung Pao Prawnshttps://niammy.com/mong/recipe/kung-pao-prawns-174https://niammy.com/mong/recipe/kung-pao-prawns-174Kung Pao is one of my favourite dishes and I love to make this with prawns. It is salty and slightly sweet and has a little kick to it. I make this with stir fried peppers and cashew nuts.Thu, 28 Apr 2016 13:38:37 +0000Bacon Sandwich with Dandelion Greenshttps://niammy.com/mong/recipe/bacon-sandwich-with-dandelion-greens-118https://niammy.com/mong/recipe/bacon-sandwich-with-dandelion-greens-118So I did a little bit of research to see what might go well with these new (to me) greens. At first I thought of sautéeing them. That would be fabulous. They’re a little bit bitter, so if you want to tame them, as with any bitter green, you might want to cook them first. And you could totally cook them for this recipe. But, I thought that raw would work nicely too, because it was going on a bac...Sat, 16 Apr 2016 12:00:58 +0000Kale Salad with Thai Basil and Black Mission Figshttps://niammy.com/mong/recipe/kale-salad-with-thai-basil-and-black-mission-figs-117https://niammy.com/mong/recipe/kale-salad-with-thai-basil-and-black-mission-figs-117Sat, 16 Apr 2016 11:57:35 +0000Chile Pepper Poppershttps://niammy.com/mong/recipe/chile-pepper-poppers-116https://niammy.com/mong/recipe/chile-pepper-poppers-116I’ve seen different varieties of pepper poppers before, but never actually tried to make them. They’re often filled with cheese. Yum! But, I wondered if maybe they could be filled with something a little more nutrient dense. Cheese, I’m down with, but let’s add a little more.Sat, 16 Apr 2016 11:55:11 +0000Thai Basil and Peanut Souphttps://niammy.com/mong/recipe/thai-basil-and-peanut-soup-115https://niammy.com/mong/recipe/thai-basil-and-peanut-soup-115This is my take on a Thai-peanut-kinda-spicy-oh-so-good soup. And yes, I said peanut. Peanut butter, to be exact.To start, I raided the veggie drawers in the fridge. Cabbage, green beans, lemongrass, and chile peppers all made the cut (bell peppers, carrots, broccoli, and greens could also be added, but you’re not missing out without them).Then I went to the pantry. Found some peanut butter, gi...Sat, 16 Apr 2016 11:52:43 +0000Rustic Persimmon Tarthttps://niammy.com/mong/recipe/rustic-persimmon-tart-114https://niammy.com/mong/recipe/rustic-persimmon-tart-114Today, it was time for a tart. I’ve been waiting and waiting for my hachiya persimmons to ripen. Finally, they’re ready. If you’ve ever wondered if you could use a hachiya persimmon before it’s ripe, wonder no more. Just don’t do it. It will make your mouth pucker and get that gross dry feeling that you might not understand if you’ve never experienced it. Trust me, you’re better off heeding my ...Sat, 16 Apr 2016 11:49:19 +0000Kohlrabi Stewhttps://niammy.com/mong/recipe/kohlrabi-stew-113https://niammy.com/mong/recipe/kohlrabi-stew-113This is a humble meal. I like to think of it as peasant food. It begs for bread that’s hot from the oven, torn rather than sliced, topped with a good amount of butter. Peasant food, or comfort food. Or just good food. Doesn’t really matter what label you put on it.It contains simple ingredients like kohlrabi, mizuna, and garbonzo beans. You could play with the recipe if you need to, depending o...Sat, 16 Apr 2016 11:44:37 +0000
