  • Spaghetti with Mussels in White

    Spaghetti with Mussels in White I am a fan of Mediterranean dishes and should make them as often as possible! They are extremely healthy and full of vitamins that are necessary for us. In addition, it is necessary to pay attention to how the shells are prepared in the correct way. A very easy recipe and ready quickly. Follow recipe. Ingredients: economic, simple, preparation: 30 min. 4 serving 320 g spaghetti 2 kg mussels in the shell extra virgin olive oil 3 large garlic cloves/ finely chopped 1 sprig chopped parsley 70 ml white wine black pepper to taste Preparation: Rinse the shells well and clean the outside well of impurities. When you are done, put them in a large pot with water, turn on the heat to medium-moderate, cover with a lid and when the mussels have opened, turn them occasionally. Once they are all open, turn off the heat and let them cool. Separate a few pieces of clean shells for decoration, remove the rest of the mussel shells from the membrane and put them in a container. Then filter the water that will remove the mussels: by placing a fine mesh strainer over the bowl and placing a cloth napkin in the strainer. Pour the mussel water: you will see that all impurities will remain inside the napkin! In the meantime, put plenty of olive oil in the pan — it must at least cover the bottom, and chopped garlic cloves. Fry and stir over low heat, wait for the onion to release its fragrance, be careful not to burn. Then add white wine and a little filtered mussel water. Do not add everything at once, because you risk ending up with very salty and inedible pasta, but add little by little and try several times until you achieve the desired taste. Let the sauce thicken a little and finally add the mussels, let them flavor for a couple of minutes at most and turn off the heat. Add some ground black pepper and set aside. Cook the spaghetti, drain it and pour it into the pot with the sauce. Let it stand for a few minutes and with the fire off, add some chopped parsley. Never cook parsley because cooked parsley loses its characteristic aroma and becomes bitter during cooking.

  • Ratatouille with Couscous

    Ratatouille with Couscous A light dish of vegetable ratatouille with the addition of couscous, quick and easy. Follow recipe. Ingredients : 20 x20 cm casserole dish, simple, total time 60 min. 2 servings 250 g of couscous For Dressing: 1 medium head of onion 2–3 ripe tomatoes/ or 1 small line of tomato purée 2–3 cloves of garlic/ finely chopped 1 teaspoon of fresh thyme/ or to taste 100 ml of olive oil 1/2 teaspoon of salt pepper to taste For Ratatouille: 100 g of homemade pancetta-bacon /optional/cut into thinner pieces. 1 larger yellow zucchini 2 red pepper 2 green zucchini 1 eggplant Preparation: Cut the onion and garlic as small as you can. Put a layer of tomato purée on the bottom of a fireproof bowl or baking dish, and then sprinkle evenly mixed garlic, onion, salt, pepper, and a spoonful of olive oil over it. Cut the washed eggplant, (if the eggplant is a larger cut, cut it into 4 parts) zucchini and peppers into even and thin rings with a sharp knife and stack them from the edge of the bowl to the end. When you arrange, make sure that each row has a different order of vegetables. Finally, drizzle with olive oil, salt, and pepper and sprinkle with thyme. Cover the mixed vegetables with baking paper and place in a heated oven to bake at 180 °C to 200 °C for about 35 to 40 minutes. In the meantime, cook couscous and serve with ratatouille. Buon appetito! NOTE: If you want to use bacon, insert a piece of bacon at the end of each different vegetable, it will give a phenomenal flavor to this dish. Same time, it is good to use it in moderate quantities because bacon is very rich in various micronutrients, such as: Selenium, Zinc, Phosphorus, Iron, Magnesium, Potassium, B vitamin complex. But of course I say in moderation, it is certainly not good for those who are on a diet. Bacon is known as an extremely fatty food, the composition of its fats should not worry you in terms of health effects. Monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fatty acids are known to be good for heart and blood vessel health. The good news is that, until recently, the notorious saturated fatty acids, according to recent research, are to a lesser extent associated with the occurrence of heart diseases. #food #healthy #dish #couscous #ratatouille #peppers #zucchini #eggplant #bacon #simple #recipe #delicious #foodblogger #blog #coffeetimelena Use the contact form for questions or advice.

Follow recipe. Ingredients : simple, total time: 3h. For the Syrup: 600 g granulated sugar 400 ml of water 60 g glucose (sugar) 1 cinnamon stick 3 cloves 1 orange/ cut in half For the Baklava: 500 g crust sheets for sweets 400 g butter/ melted 1 Tbsp full of cinnamon/ grated 1 Tbsp chopped cloves/ grated 400 g walnuts 50 g breadcrumbs Preparation : Baklava is a rich, syrupy, buttery sweet that consists of many crunchy crusty leaves stuffed with chopped nuts. It is delicious! For the Syrup In a saucepan over high heat, put the sugar, water, glucose, 1 cinnamon stick, cloves and orange cut in half. Once the sugar boils and melts and the mixture becomes transparent, remove from the heat and leave to cool. For Baklava Add the walnuts, cinnamon, breadcrumbs, and cloves in portions to the multipurpose machine and beating, chop them finely but do not want to make them a powder. Pour the mixture into a bowl and mix with a 1 Tablespoon butter, and the mixture is ready for the baklava filling. Butter a 35×25 cm baking tray well with the help of a brush. Place the pan with its large side parallel to you. Start to spread crust, making the base. Carefully spread the first sheet of crust, with its large side, covering 2/3 of the surface of the pan and let the edges of the sheet protrude from the sides of the pan. Press lightly with your hand so that the sheet is well layered in the corners of the pan. Repeat the process with the second sheet, but this time lay it on the other side of the pan and lightly overlap the first sheet. Sprinkle the crust with melted butter, but without the brush touching the crust. Then, spread the third sheet along the entire surface of the pan, again laying the sheet in the corners as before. Butter in the same way. Spread 1 handful of the filling over the entire surface of the pan. Spread one more sheet, putting its small side touching the upper big side of the pan. Butter in the same way. Spread 1 handful of filling over the entire surface of the pan. Spread one more sheet with butter and add filling with the same procedure. Repeat the process of filling, sheet, butter in succession, for the remaining sheets, leaving 3 for the end. Make sure that all the filling is empty. Turn the edges of the crust inwards and press well. Then, add 2 more crust sheets without filling, buttering each one as before. Put the last sheet, press around the edges and turn the edges inwards with the help of the brush. Pour the remaining butter on top. Put the butter in the fridge for 20 minutes to cool and be able to carve our baklava. Preheat the oven to 150 °C in air. Cut the baklava with a sharp knife, but not all the way down. Bake in the oven for 2-2 ½ hours until crispy. When the baklava is cooked, while it is still hot, pour syrup to it with the cold syrup. Allow cooling and strain the syrup. After it cools, cut and serve.

  • How to make Marinade for Lamb

    How to make Marinade for Lamb The best way to marinate your lamb before the holidays is first to have good quality meat and to order it 5 days before the festive reception. Lamb is always marinated 2 days before the reception, precisely to absorb all the ingredients and smells. And how to do it, in a very simple way. Follow recipe. Ingredients : simple, total time 10 min. 5 kg of lamb with bones 100 ml oil sage to taste/ fresh or dry 3-4 teaspoon of salt 4 cloves of garlic 1 sprig bay leaves Preparing the Marinade : Take out the meat from the freezer that you bought earlier, wait for it to thaw until the next day in the refrigerator. You do this 2 days before a festive reception. First, rub the meat well with oil then with sage on all sides. (If you have fresh sage, even better, I didn't have). Salt it well, because during the roasting, you will water this meat occasionally and the salt will fall on the baked potatoes or stew. Cut the garlic into thin rings and cut the pieces of meat, make small cuts and insert the garlic leaves inside the meat, do this only where there are meaty areas. If you eat ribs or some bony parts, you don't need to, just place garlic leaves over them! Stir the meat and bones well together in a pan, and at the end put 1 sprig bay leaves on the meat. Cover with nylon and seal the edges well. Put it in the fridge and let it stand for 2 days. The lamb prepared in this way is ready for baking. Look recipe here! NOTE : Before baking, mix the lamb meat once more and add a little more oil if necessary. Place in a baking dish and heat the oven. Bake at 190 °C. Put the roast in the oven on the lowest level. Cover the roast as needed if it browns. As soon as the meat is soft and has taken on color, take it out of the oven and put the potatoes in the same pan and bake until the potatoes are soft. It depends on the size of the pieces of meat, if you have smaller and thinner steaks, you will roast less. Generally, check your roasting every 30 minutes. During baking, do not open the oven for the first 20 minutes, this rule applies to anything you bake. Turn the meat and top up with water as needed. I add water only when the meat takes on color, because then the juice is tastier. I add the potatoes 1 and a half hours before the end so that they can pick up the smell and juices from baking. Baking always takes about 2–4 hours. It depends on the size of the pieces of meat, if you have smaller and thinner steaks, you will roast less. Mostly, check your roasting every 30 minutes. #food #lamb #marinade #meat #howto #make #delicious #soft #fragrant #roast #recipe #simple #blog #coffeetimelena #coffeetimewithlena Use the contact form for questions or advice.

  • Tiramisu White Cake

    Tiramisu White Cake A wonderful and juicy Tiramisu white cake with Savoyard biscuits combined with coffee, chocolate cream and mascarpone flavored with coconut. This is one of my combinations and I believe you will like it very much! Quick and easy preparation is done in just 30 minutes. Follow the recipe. Ingredients : simple, total time: 30 min. 15 serving 30×40 cm/ 3 levels 300 g of sponge cake -Ladyfingers/ Savoyardi 300 ml of strong coffee 1 Tablespoon of Marsala dolce liqueur 400 g of Mascarpone 350 g white chocolate melted + 1 Tablespoon butter 4 egg yolks 4 egg whites 100 g of sugar 1 flat Tablespoon sugar/ for egg whites 60 g of coconut flour/ for sprinkling and decoration/ Preparation : FIRST: Brew strong coffee and when it cools, add Marsala liqueur, stir and let it cool. During this time, prepare the cream. CREAM Separate the egg yolks from the egg whites in two different deep bowls. Add 100 g of sugar to the bowl with the egg yolks, mix for about 10 minutes until you get a thick and creamy mixture, and set aside. After that, put the mascarpone in another deep bowl, work it with a mixer for about 3 minutes, then add the melted white chocolate with butter and mix it into a compact mixture. With a spatula, gradually add the mixture to the egg yolk cream, mix until the mixture is uniform. Beat the separated egg whites well with a mixer for about 4 minutes, from smaller to larger speed, as soon as the snow has formed, add 1 tablespoon of sugar and mix for another 4 minutes. When the snow has become, turn off the mixer. Gradually add the cream to the egg whites with a large spoon, and at the same time mix with a mixer. The filling is then ready! PROCEDURE CAKE: After that, take the container where you will arrange the Savoyards-ladyfingers. With the help of a large spoon, coat the bottom of the container with a little cream, I have used 3 spoons. Then arrange the biscuits next to each other, sprinkle coffee with a little spoon over the biscuits (or dip them) I did this first because I don't like biscuits that are too gooey and very soft. The cream will certainly soften them by standing in the refrigerator. Make sure that the first and second layers of the biscuits- Savoyardi are in different directions. Then, with the help of a small spoon, sprinkle coconut flour over the biscuits-Savoyard, then a layer of cream I have used 4 full spoons and level it. Then coconut flour sprinkle again, then ladyfingers-Savoyard to line up- then coffee-coconut flour-then cream. Do this until you use up all the material. When you have reached the top and back of the cream that you have placed and leveled, sprinkle with a little coffee that you have left and coconut flour on top of that. You don't have to put coffee like I do, put coconut directly over the cream if you prefer. Instead of coconut, you can use grated chocolate for each level of the cake. I chose coconut because I love it. Leave the cake to cool for at least 3–4 hours to tighten well. Cut into cubes and serve. This cake is very good, very soft, and juicy! It melts in your mouth! ______________________________________ 2. RECIPE SMALL CAKE WHITE TIRAMISU 20 × 20 cm Ingredients : simple, total time: 45 min. casserole dish 20×20 cm/ 2 levels 27 pieces of sponge cake 200 ml of strong coffee/ chilled 1 Tablespoon of Marsala liqueur 3 egg yolks 80 g of sugar 3 egg whites+ 1 full tablespoon of sugar 200 g of white chocolate/ melted+ 1 Tbsp butter 300 g of mascarpone 200 ml of fresh whipped cream coconut flour or dark chocolate to taste The procedure for making this cake is the same as the first recipe, only the quantity is smaller.

  • Sweet Rolls with Jam

    Sweet Rolls with Jam Wonderful rolls with jam or cream of your choice, if you want the dough to be soft, it is important that it rests for 40 minutes. Ready in just an hour and a half. You can make these rolls without waiting for the dough, only if you are in a hurry, then make them all at once, you can also make larger rolls of 12 pieces. When you make them that way, the dough will be less soft, but I still recommend the first variant with waiting for the dough. You can also not add sugar to the dough if you don't want to. The dough will be less sweet. The rolls will be even better if they sit for a few more days. Enjoy the bites. Follow recipe. Ingredients : simple, total time 90 min, 24 rolls Dough 125 g of butter 300 g of flour 00 + for sprinkling 1 full teaspoon of baking powder/ 6 g pinch of salt 1.5 Tablespoons of sugar 200 ml of yogurt For Filling: homemade jam or some chocolate cream Nutella powdered sugar for sprinkling Preparation: Dough: Leave the butter at room temperature to soften completely. Sift the flour together with the baking powder and add the sugar. Add butter and yogurt and knead the dough first with a mixer and then with your hands. If necessary, add more flour and knead briefly until you get a soft dough that does not stick to the bowl and fingers. If you have a dough machine, you can knead the dough that way. When you've done that, wrap the dough in transparent foil and leave it in the fridge for about 40 minutes. Processing: Preheat the oven to 190 °C fan and line an oven tray with baking paper. Divide the dough into 2 parts and return half to the refrigerator. Knead the dough a little with your hands, then sprinkle flour on the surface of the worktop, roll out the dough with a rolling pin as thin as you can, so that you get a relatively regular circle. Divide into quarters and then each into 3, so that you have 12 triangles. Fill each of them with jam or a cream of your choice and roll from the wider side to the top (to the center of the circle). To prevent the jam from leaking, press the edges when you fold it for the first time. Place them in a tray and curl the edges a little. You don't have to travel long distances. Repeat the same with the other half of the dough. Bake for about 20 minutes. Leave to cool for a while and sprinkle with powdered sugar. Serve warm with coffee, tea, or a cup of milk, or breakfast.
