Hungarian Creamed Zucchini (Tök Fözelék)

This traditional Hungarian style zucchini has a lovely creamy texture coated with the tangy flavour of sour cream and the refreshing dill balances this dish as a fabulous and delicious side dish.

Boy does this dish brings back memories of my Nagymama making this when I was very young and when summer squash was in season. The full flavours of this dish comes from the sautéed onions, chicken stock ,sour cream and fresh dill.

This dish truly has the flavours of a traditional Hungarian dish. With the sour cream, vinegar, dill and paprika. It’s one that you don’t see very much in today’s cuisines.

Any Hungarians, please comment 😊
Can you eat the whole pot like I can??🤣🤣

Molasses Chocolate Chip Cookies [Chewy]

Molasses adds moisture to any baked items, Rather than use brown sugar in this recipe, I added molasses to see if it made a difference, and I fell in love with the result!

For May’s Meal, I took advantage of the season !

Greek inspired Asparagus Pie 🥧
Lots of asparagus, Feta , Parmesan, mozzarella, herbs and extra virgin olive oil.
It’s a nice vegetarian meal in itself or as a side.
&
Greek Yogurt Cake

The flavour is tangy and cheesecake-like. It's a decadent treat you can eat without feeling guilty - a lightened up cheesecake made without heavy cream cheese🍓

🇭🇺HUNGARIAN CREAMED SPINACH WITH GARLIC (Spenót Főzelék) 🇭🇺

There's a reason why this is a Hungarian classic. It's indescribably delicious. There is something both satisfying and comforting about this rich green garlicky mass. It slips down easily, and leaves you wanting more.

Tradition mandates the use of lard .
I use Extra Virgin Olive Oil ( obviously 🙄 )
This side is wonderful served with pork chops or roast/fried chicken.
Or, if you’re like my daughter Artemis,
Just a HUGE bowl 🥣 of it all on its own!
