  • Kranz dessert

    ##Indulge in the Delight of Kranz Dessert Kranz dessert Kranz is a fragrant brioche, perfect for breakfast, especially when paired with freshly baked croissants. This dessert, originating from Austria, consists of multiple alternating layers of brioche dough and puff pastry. These layers can be filled with apricot jam, raisins, and candied orange peel. Alternatively, you may choose to fill the kranz with chocolate chips or dark chocolate and almond pieces, and you can vary the jam flavor to your liking. The preparation process is quite intricate: the brioche dough requires at least one night in the refrigerator, while the puff pastry demands meticulous handling to incorporate air between the layers of dough and butter, allowing for expansion during baking through a process known as "physical rising." Creating kranz requires patience, but the end result is rewarding as the delightful aroma of these brioches fills your kitchen, promising a sweet and genuine awakening. Follow the recipe carefully. 1 . KRANZ RECIPE For quick preparation of kranz dessert follow the recipe. Ingredients : simple, total time: 60 min., standings time: 3 h 1 pack puff pastry/ 250 g Dough   for   brioche : 250 g flour 00 35 g granulated sugar 7 dry yeast 40 ml milk 90 g eggs 1 Tbsp honey 0,50 ml rum liqueur 1 /2 lemon grated peel 90 g soft butter/ diced For   Filling as you like : Apricot jam Candied fruits/ orange, apricot Raisins Chocolate drops Almonds or hazelnuts Brushing : 1 egg yolk 30 ml milk Paneangeli sugar drops Kranz   dessert   Preparation : In a deep bowl, add the sifted flour, granulated sugar, yeast and milk. Mix everything well and gradually add the eggs. Stir in honey, rum liqueur and lemon zest. Beat on medium speed until the mixture is smooth. After that, add the softened cubed butter, mix at the same time until you get a homogeneous dough. Transfer the finished dough to a bowl and cover with cling film and wait for the dough to double in size, about 1–2 hours. After the specified time, roll out the dough to a thickness of 4 mm in a rectangular form. Cover with jam, sprinkle with raisins and add candied orange fruit. Roll out the puff pastry to the same thickness as the first brioche dough and fold it over the jam. Divide into two equal parts with the help of a knife. Add the filling ingredients, jam, raisins and candied fruit to one half again, then fold it over with the other half. Knead the dough with the palm of your hand, then roll it out to thickness 4-5 mm with a rolling pin. Cut the dough into 2-3 cm strips. Twist the strips into a spiral. Place the finished spiral kranz on baking paper in an oven tray. Cover them with transparent foil and let them rise for about 1 hour. After the spinning time, remove the foil and coat with the beaten egg yolk and milk with the help of a brush. Sprinkle with sugar drops. Bake in preheated oven at 180°C, for 20–25 minutes. Serve the pastry hot or cold with coffee or tea KRANZ DESSERT RECIPE Ingredients : medium, standing time: 4 hours total time: 60.min 14 serving Dough   for   14   Brioche(1) : 300 g Manitoba flour 200 g 00 flour 150 g butter 150 g eggs/ room temperature 100 ml water/ room temperature 90 g granulated sugar 8 g honey 5 g dry yeast 1/2 vanilla seeds pinch of salt 1 grated lemon peel/ optional For puff   pastry   450 g(2) or bought package: 140 g flour 00 130 ml water 130 g butter 80 g Manitoba flour 5 g salt For   Filling : 200 g apricot jam 100 g candied orange 100 g raisins 1 orange juice 1 tsp rum liqueur For   Brushing : 90 g sugar 89 ml water 1 egg Preparation: For the brioche dough:   The brioche dough you can refrigerate overnight, and you will prepare it as follows. In a bowl, beat the softened butter with a spatula until you get a smooth creamy texture, add salt, half of the vanilla bean, to the butter. You can add grated lemon peel if you want. Set aside. Pour the pre-sifted flour into a deep bowl and gradually add the sugar, yeast (alternatively you can use 12 g of fresh brewer's yeast) and honey. Mix on medium speed and in a thin stream, pour in the room temperature water, and the eggs one at a time. Once you have added all the eggs, gradually add the previously beaten butter with a spoon and whisk at the same time. When you get homogeneous dough, transfer it to a small bowl, cover it with cling film and let it rise for 2 hours to double. For   Puff   Pastry : Start by preparing the pastry. Dissolve the salt in the water in a glass. Sift the Manitoba flour with 100 g of 00 flour and place them in a deep bowl. Add the water in which you have dissolved the salt and knead everything on medium speed for about 8 minutes. You should get a mixture that is softer and more elastic than bread, smooth and homogeneous. Leave to rest, covered with a cloth or cling film, in a cool place for at least half an hour. After passing time, start preparing the puff pastry dough(2). Remove the butter from the fridge, cut into cubes, and place in a mixer with the remaining 40 g of 00 flour: mix with puff pastry dough until you get a smooth mixture without lumps. Transfer the resulting puff pastry dough to a baking board and roll out with a rolling pin into a square about 1 centimeter thick. Place this puff pastry dough in the lower part of the fridge (the coldest) for at least half an hour. If you are using ready-made puff pastry, then you will skip this step. Preparation   dough : Roll out the previously prepared dough for brioche into a rectangle measuring 26 x 31 cm and place a block of butter in the middle, which you will cover with the two longest edges of the dough so that they overlap (the central pastry must overlap to create a box effect that will prevent the dough from opening when rolling out). Fold the other two edges in as well, until the dough is closed on each side. Take a rolling pin and press the dough to make the block of butter more flexible. Then you can start rolling out the dough. Then continue with the folds: fold the two short sides to meet the center of the long side, making sure the two folds do not overlap, and fold it like a book. When your dough is ready, mark it with your finger (which will remind you that you just made the first fold), wrap the dough in cling film and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes. Continue in this manner at least 3 more times, always marking the fold you made with your fingers. After the last fold, refrigerate the pastry for 1 hour. After this time, you can form the kranz: squeeze the orange juice, filter it and pour it into a small bowl, then soak the raisins in the juice and add a spoon of rum. Then roll out the brioche dough, and puff pastry dough at the same time, making two 26 x 31 cm rectangles. Spread apricot jam again on one of the two halves, and sprinkle the surface with raisins and candied fruit. Then place the other half, alternating the layers and making sure they fit perfectly. You can press lightly with your palm to help the layers stick together. When you are finished, transfer the kranz dough to a tray to cut it so that if the filling spills out, you can put it back. Using a pastry cutter, cut strips 3 x 13 cm. and wrap them in themselves, forming a spiral. Place the kranz thus obtained on a baking sheet lined with baking paper, brush them with 1 beaten egg, and let them rise for about 2 hours to double their volume. Then bake the kranz in a static oven preheated to 180° for 25 minutes (if using a fan oven at 160° for 15–20 minutes). Meanwhile, pour the sugar into a saucepan, then add the water, dissolve the sugar and bring to a boil, until a syrup forms. When the kranz are cooked, remove them from the oven and let them cool slightly, then coat them with the water and sugar syrup, and serve them hot or warm. Buon appetito! NOTE : Keep Kranz in a dry place in an airtight box for up to 3 days. Do you want to try something a little different?

  • Breast Fibroadenoma Symptoms, Treatment, Teas and Herbs, Experiences

    Breast Fibroadenoma Symptoms, Treatment, Teas and Herbs, Experiences What is fibroadenoma? Finding nodules in the breast can be a frightening experience, but not all growths and tumors in the breast are carcinogenic. One type of benign (non-cancerous) breast tumor is called fibroadenoma. Although not life-threatening, this benign breast tumor may still require treatment. Thus, fibroadenoma is a benign breast tumor (non-cancerous), which is usually found in women younger than 30 years. This benign breast tumor consists of breast and stroma tissue, or connective tissue. Fibroadenomas can occur in one or both breasts. Breast fibroadenoma symptoms, treatment, teas and herbs, experiences Fibroadenoma symptoms When you feel a lump in the breast, the first thought always refers to the worst – however, we note that in most cases it is not breast cancer, but a fibroadenoma on the breast. When it comes to breast fibroadenoma, some fibroadenomas are so small that they cannot be felt. When a woman is able to feel fibroadenoma on the breast, then it is very clearly different from the surrounding tissue. A moving ball in the breast may indicate a fibroadenoma. The edges are clearly defined, and the tumors have a detected shape. They are mobile under the skin and are typically not sensitive. These tumors often feel like marbles, you may feel like they have a rubbery texture. So does fibroadenoma hurt? The answer is that fibroadenoma does not typically cause pain, although in some cases sensitivity and pain may occur, especially before the onset of menstruation. Breast fibroadenoma treatment If you are diagnosed with fibroadenoma, it does not mean that it must be removed. Depending on your physical symptoms, family history and personal problems, you and your doctor can decide whether to remove it or not. Non-developing fibroadenomas that are definitely non-carcinogenic can only be closely monitored with clinical breast examination and imaging tests, such as mammograms and ultrasound. The decision whether fibroadenoma removal will be necessary usually depends on the following: if it affects the natural shape of the breast if it causes pain if you are worried that it may develop into cancer if you have a family history of cancer if you have a suspicious biopsy result. If the fibroadenoma is removed, it is possible for one or more of them to grow back in the same place. Regular monthly breast self-examination should be your routine that you should never skip. If there are any changes in the size or shape of the existing fibroadenoma, contact your doctor immediately. Fibroadenoma surgery Breast fibroadenoma surgery is performed only if the doctor decides that it is best for you. Breast fibroadenoma surgery, called an excisional biopsy, is sometimes performed to remove a fibroadenoma if it is large, complex, or juvenile. Sometimes a woman can ask the doctor to remove the fibroadenoma, because she is worried about her health. In the case of fibroadenoma, the operation will be performed using local or general anesthesia. You may be offered a vacuum-assisted excision biopsy to remove the fibroadenoma. This is a way to remove small fibroadenomas under local anesthesia, but without surgery. What the recovery will be like after fibroadenoma surgery depends on many factors. In general, a woman recovers quickly, with minimal possible complications. You need to listen to the doctor's advice. Treatment of breast fibroadenoma naturally When it comes to breast fibroadenoma, natural treatment can help a lot. What is the natural cure for fibroadenoma? Vitamin E supplements Some women report a significant improvement in their pain and fibroadenoma sensitivity when taking a vitamin E supplement, but this does not show a significant effect at all. You can get vitamin E through the food you eat. Foods with high levels of vitamin E: leafy vegetables, broccoli, tomatoes, basil, red peppers, asparagus, pumpkin, kiwi, mango, nuts, seeds, avocado and olive oil. Evening primrose oil Evening primrose oil has been shown to be an excellent natural remedy for fibroadenoma, as it has shown great results in relieving pain and tenderness. The recommended dose is 3 grams per day for a period of 3 to 6 months. Iodine supplementation Treatment of breast fibroadenoma in a natural way is also possible with iodine replacement. Namely, iodine deficiency may play a role in the development of breast cysts. Without iodine, breast tissue becomes more sensitive to estrogen, which can cause fibroadenoma. Herbal fibroadenoma treatment Certain herbs can relieve breast pain and swelling: dandelion leaves, uva ursi, broccoli (Galium aparine) and Yarrow. If you are interested in herbal treatment, Phytolacca americana root oil or castor oil have been used for years to reduce painful lumps in the breast. These oils should be rubbed into the breast skin as a lotion. You can also place a towel soaked in castor oil on the affected area and place a heating pad on top. Keep this for at least an hour for maximum results. Alternatively, massage your breasts regularly with plain castor oil. You can also use castor oil mixed with herbs and essential oils and bitter gourd oil. Breast massage also helps to monitor the changes that are happening in your breasts. Tea for fibroadenoma When it comes to fibroadenoma tea, it is mentioned that regular drinking of fresh ginger tea can alleviate the symptoms of fibroadenoma a lot. Breast fibroadenoma diet When it comes to breast fibroadenoma, diet is also very important and can help in this case. Follow these guidelines: avoid eating meat do not consume refined sugars avoid eating foods that contain compounds such as estrogen (soy) consume fresh fruits and vegetables and their juices (the best from organic production), and the best for breast health are : wheatgrass, kale, spinach, dandelion leaves, celery, primrose and cucumber. Avoid fried, greasy or processed foods as much as possible eliminate caffeine from your diet (coffee, green, black, white and oolong tea, chocolate, Coca-Cola). Fibroadenoma experience Fibroadenoma is mainly diagnosed in younger women. Symptoms are sometimes present, then the woman usually feels a lump in the breast that moves, however – sometimes the fibroadenoma is deep in the breast that it cannot be felt so easily. Experiences regarding fibroadenoma are different, in most cases, doctors advise only vigilant monitoring and regular monitoring, initially for 6 months, and later for a year, if everything is fine. If the fibroadenoma increases and begins to cause problems, then its removal is advised. Breast ultrasound and mammography are the most relevant methods for diagnosing fibroadenoma, but monthly breast self-examinations are extremely important, so that a woman can see a doctor immediately if she notices a change. In some, fibroadenoma causes pain and tenderness, especially before the onset of menstruation, while in some it does not cause any concerns at all. The good news is that in most cases, fibroadenoma will not progress to breast cancer, but diet and lifestyle are very essential as a form of prevention. #health #alternative #medicine #breast #fibroadenoma #blog #foodblog #foodblogger #coffeetimelena #foodlover #homemade Use the contact form for questions or advice.

  • Banana Calories, Vitamins, Proteins, Carbohydrates, Health Impact

    Banana Calories, Vitamins, Proteins, Carbohydrates, Health Impa ct Bananas are among the most popular fruits on the planet. Since they have their own distinctive, hard, yellow shell, we usually carry them with us for a snack. They are full of nutrients and contain carbohydrates, which makes them popular among athletes. To eat them, you have to peel them. You are probably also wondering how many calories, protein and carbohydrates bananas contain. While green, bananas contain more starch, but as they ripen, that starch turns into sugar and that is why bananas have a lot of carbohydrates. Bananas are "easy" for the stomach, which is another reason why they are popular among athletes. Of course, not all bananas are the same. As for the nutrients, they are the same, but when we talk about the number of calories, it depends a lot on the size of the banana. Banana Calories, Vitamins, Proteins, Carbohydrates, Health Impact One average banana contains about 100 calories, but as with all foods, portion size is important. Here is a table on nutritional values ​​to get a better picture of how many calories bananas have in cut sizes. Very small (Less than 15 cm and 80 grams) 72 calories, 19 grams of carbohydrates Small (15-17 cm, 100 grams) 90 calories, 23 gr. carbohydrates Medium (17-20 cm, 118 grams) 105 calories 25 g. u. hydrate Large (20-22 cm, 136 grams) 121 calories, 31 gr u.h. Very large ( Longer than 22 cm, 152 grams) 135 calories 35 g. u.h. Crushed (One cup, 225 grams) 200 calories, 51.3 g. u.h. Vitamins in bananas: Bananas are an excellent source of many vitamins and minerals: Vitamin B6 5 mg Manganese 3 mg Vitamin C 9 mg Potassium 450 mg Fiber 3 g Protein 1 g Magnesium 34 mg Folic acid 25 mcg Riboflavin (vitamin B2) 1 mg Niacin (vitamin B3) 8 mg Vitamin A 81 IU Iron 3 mg The recommended daily intake of potassium for adults is 4,700 mg per day. Why do we need potassium? Bananas are best known for being rich in potassium. This mineral is important because it helps us maintain an optimal level of fluid in the body and regulates the distribution of nutrients in the cells and the expulsion of excess substances from the cells. Potassium is also important for muscle contractions and the response of nerve cells to it. Potassium is important for a proper heartbeat and can reduce the bad effect of sodium on blood pressure. Potassium reduces the risk of kidney stones as we age. Healthy kidneys can maintain optimal levels of calcium in the body. One medium-sized banana contains 422 milligrams of potassium. Banana protein One medium-sized banana contains about 1.3 grams of protein, although that amount varies depending on the size of the banana. The proteins contained in bananas are not complete, but because bananas also provide energy, they are popular among athletes. The proteins contained in bama cannot meet even a part of the daily needs, even if they ate more than 1 kg. When you consider other nutritional values of this fruit, it will be much clearer to you why bananas are so healthy. Banana calories, vitamins, proteins, carbohydrates, health impact Banana size and protein content In the table below we list the protein content in bananas depending on the size: Very small, 12 cm or less 0.88 grams of protein Small, 12-17 cm 1.1 grams Medium, 17-20 cm 1.3 grams Large, 20-23 cm 1.48 grams Extra-large, longer than 23 cm 1.66 grams One cup of mashed bananas contains 2.45 grams of protein, and one cup of chopped bananas contains 1.64 grams of protein. Banana for weight loss Have you learned how many calories a banana has and you already think it’s not exactly the best fruit for weight loss? A good and quality weight loss plan involves regular exercise, and many fitness experts agree that bananas are the perfect "fuel" for before and after exercise. Why? They contain a lot of glucose. It is a sugar that digests quickly and not only gives you enough energy to exercise, but also quickly replaces the energy lost after a hard workout. Another reason why bananas are a great snack before and after exercise is that they are rich in potassium, an electrolyte that prevents muscle cramps and fatigue after exercise. Combine this fruit with another food that contains proteins that "build" muscles - e.g. one hard-boiled egg or a spoonful of almond butter and your tired body will get all the nutrients it needs to recover. Before peeling, bananas are rich in a substance called "resistant starch", which, as its name suggests, is resistant to the digestion process. It feeds healthy bacteria in the intestines, which reduces appetite and leads to much better fat burning. Since unpeeled bananas are quite bitter, it is best to put them in a smoothie with other fruits and vegetables to "kill" that taste. How many carbohydrates does a banana contain and what types of carbohydrates are found in bananas? The banana tree grows from three to eight meters in height. Bananas grow in clusters and there are usually between 50 and 150 bananas in one bunch. Each of these clusters is divided into several smaller ones. Carbohydrates in bananas are not the same as other carbohydrates - the difference is in the fiber. Although bananas contain a lot of carbohydrates, more than oranges, they also contain fiber and starch, which means that you will feel full longer when you eat a banana. Fiber slows the release of sugar into the bloodstream. Of course, you have to keep in mind that bananas, based on calories, have a strong effect on blood sugar levels, more than oranges or strawberries. This means that they have more carbohydrates and a higher glycemic index and glycemic load. Glycemic index and glycemic load are a certain type of blood sugar measure, which is of great importance for diabetics. However, many people still think that banana is a good choice if you want to keep your blood sugar level stable. Bananas are also popular with people who follow a carb cycling diet, when you eat more carbohydrates on certain days. How many carbs a day do you need and how many carbs from a banana do you want to eat? If you are physically active, about 40% of the calories you take in should come from carbohydrates, 30% from protein and 30% from fat. Depending on how many calories you eat per day, you probably need between 600 to 800 calories, which is approximately between 150 and 200 grams of carbohydrates. Two hundred grams is the upper limit, and the lower 120 grams, and that is the ideal amount for people who want to lose weight. Bananas are a great source of healthy carbohydrates and it is best to eat one to two bananas a day, depending on the size of the banana and how many carbohydrates you are ingesting from other sources. Why are carbohydrates from bananas good? 1.They give us energy and are good for the proper functioning of cells Even despite all the popular diets that are based on the intake of a minimum amount of carbohydrates, carbohydrates are still the main source of "fuel" for the body. Let's see how it works. When we eat, our body breaks down food into sugars and starch so that they are absorbed by the body. When this happens, sugars and starch are converted to glucose, which is better known to us as "blood sugar". This is very important, because glucose is necessary for us to function properly. It stimulates brain functions and gives us energy for everything we do. In addition, have you perhaps heard of adenosine triphosphate, abbreviated ATP? ATO is a key source of "fuel" for the organism found in the cells. ATP is created through a natural chemical reaction after digestion and can be formed from carbohydrates, and proteins and fats. What is important is the fact that the cells use ATP for normal functioning. Many foods of both plant and animal origin give us ATP, and bananas are one of those foods. Bananas have plant cells that contain ATP, and when we eat a banana, it is converted into glucose, which is used to create ATP. 2. They help in the digestion process As already mentioned, bananas are considered to have a relatively low glycemic index. The glycemic index is actually a measure of how much a food affects the blood sugar jump. How then can super-sweet bananas have a relatively low glycemic index? The secret is in the fibers. Fiber maintains the optimal speed of the digestion process, which allows the conversion of carbohydrates into simple sugars to take place more slowly, which is much better for the digestion process. Bananas also contain pectin . Pectin is, conditionally speaking, a more complex type of fiber. Some pectins are soluble in water, some are not. As the banana ripens, the water-soluble pectin content increases, causing the banana to become softer. During this process, the amount of fructose also increases, which helps stabilize the digestion rate of carbohydrates - which is another reason why you should eat as ripe bananas as possible. Furthermore, the fructooligosaccharides in bananas also facilitate the digestion process. Fructooligosaccharides are carbohydrates that contain fructose and are not usually broken down by enzymes in our digestive tract. They pass through the intestines, where they are eventually metabolized by bacteria in the intestines. That is why it is very important to treat intestinal incontinence if you have such problems. Intestinal incontinence implies many more disorders in the process of digestion than the impossibility to keep the stool. Maintaining the intestinal flora and healthy bacteria Bifidobacteria in the back of the intestine is of great benefit for the health of the entire digestive tract. 3. Helps athletes in both physical and mental endurance A lot of research has been conducted related to athletes who deal with heavier athletes and what they eat before, during and after endurance training has been examined. Bananas seem to be their favorite dish, probably because of the energy they get from glucose and because of their easy digestion. That is why bananas and other fruits are great for energy. Other tests have shown that bananas are very effective in improving results and endurance, as well as for better concentration. It is clear that bananas are a great source of fuel for athletes, as well as for anyone who does physical work. It is best to eat them one or two hours before the start of that physical activity. If you eat them just before training, it will reduce your endurance and can create discomfort, because the body will direct all the blood to the stomach due to digestion. How to include bananas in the diet? How many bananas you will eat a day or during one week depends on many factors. If you are on a low carb diet, you should also monitor your carb intake closely. If you exercise and want to eat bananas as a "fuel", it is best to eat them about an hour before training, to get the best out of them. Another important factor to consider is the amount of potassium in bananas. Potassium is essential for every organism, but some experts warn that too much potassium can cause problems in people who have some kind of kidney disease. However, it is very difficult to "overdose" with potassium if you eat only bananas - you need to eat 400 bananas a day in order for your body to accumulate so much potassium that you get a dangerous form of hyperkalemia, which would cause heart failure. Bananas are not dangerous - they are great for health. As with everything else, moderation is key to bananas. Use bananas as a "fuel" and a great natural source of many nutrients. One or two bananas a day are enough for a balanced diet. Safety precautions Bananas are a great source of energy and are good for health in many ways. However, if you have an allergic reaction, stop eating them immediately and consult a doctor. It is not yet known whether bananas can cause a serious health problem, but if too much sugar causes headaches and excess weight, or you have a bad reaction to potassium, eat bananas in smaller quantities or consult a doctor. A few words at the end Bananas are a fruit that probably everyone loves. Banana is a perfect snack, because you can carry it in your bag, wherever you go, and it will add many important nutrients to every dish you put in it. Carbohydrates in bananas are an excellent source of energy, and they are easily digested. Include bananas in your regular diet by eating at least a few bananas a week. The calories in bananas will not make you fat because one banana meets about 5 to 7% of your daily caloric needs. #health #alternative #medicine #banana #bananavitamins #calories #carbohydrates #healthyfood #blog #foodblog #foodblogger #coffeetimelena #foodlover #homemade Use the contact form for questions or advice.

  • Satarash with Chicken meat

    ## Satarash: A Delicious Chicken Meat Delight Satarash with Chicken meat Satarash is Serbian traditional food. It consists of the following ingredients: onions, peppers and tomatoes, and if you wish, you can add an egg that is briefly mixed at the end. This dish is very tasty and is usually made for breakfast or dinner. I made a similar recipe to this one, only no egg is added. I made the combination with chicken meat and it is very delicious! You can serve with boiled potatoes or rice. Follow recipe. Satarash   with   Chicken   meat   Ingredients : simple, total time: 135 min., 4 serving 4 drumsticks with thighs 50 ml Tbsp Olive oil EVO 2 medium onion/ cut into thin ribs 3 cloves of garlic/ minced 4 bell peppers/ 3 red + 1 yellow diced in big cubes 450 g tomatoes/ diced in small cubes 150 ml tomato paste 1 tsp dry spice Vegeta salt and black pepper to taste 1 tsp dry basil 1 tsp dry thyme 1/ tsp oregano 1 tsp red ground paprika/ optional 100 ml water Satarash   with   Chicken   meat   Preparation : Prepare all the ingredients as listed above. Wash the meat and dry it well, and make 3 cuts where the skin is. Remove the excess fat and the skin from the bottom side of the thighs. (you can remove all the skin if you don't like it.) Season the chicken meat to taste, add salt, pepper, and dry spice Vegeta. Pour the 4 spoon olive oil into the wok pan and heat it on low to moderate heat. Put the chicken pieces when the oil is heated and fry until golden brown on both sides for about 20 minutes. Remove the chicken and set aside on a plate. In the same cleaned pan, pour 4 spoon olive oil add the chopped onion, simmer until soft and stir occasionally, about 5–7 minutes, covered to low moderate heat. When the onion softens, add the chopped paprika, fry about 20–25 minutes covered and stir occasionally every 10 minutes. Add the chopped tomatoes, mix everything well, cover pan and let it simmer about 15–20 minutes with occasionally stirring. Pour tomato paste season with salt, black pepper add herbs to taste, and stir well and cover pan. Let it cook about 20–25 minutes and stir occasionally. (If you want, you can now add red ground pepper.) When everything softened return the chicken meat to a pan, cook until the sauce becomes compact, to low moderate heat, covered, about 20–25 minutes. (Turn the chicken during cooking.) If any fat has accumulated on the surface, skim it off with a small spoon and pour it into a glass (if you haven't removed the skin), (I collected about 100 ml and threw it away.) When the sauce becomes compact and the vegetables and meat are completely soft, turn off the heat. Serve warm with boiled potatoes or rice. Buon appetito Satarash   with   Chicken   meat   NOTE: Peel the potatoes, cut them into quarters, put them in a pot with cold water and 1 teaspoon of salt, cook for about 22 minutes.
