Cooking book project week 5

This is the first time i made food from all of the books in one week!

First i started out with mexican tomato-thingy (i think its nachos xD). Since i wanted to get rid of the leftover corn i had, i used like 3x as much corn as i was supposed to, and i used less tomato (1 big instead of 1,5 tomatoes). I also used yoghurt instead of sour cream and cheese.
Personally i prefer the nacho that is already on my blog somewhere, where i used lasagne sauce =D


Then i had vegetable moussaka. I liked this one better than the other one i had some weeks ago. Again i used yoghurt on top. Also my bf pointed out when the yoghurt (alpro soya naturell) is heated it smells like sour socks xD I still think the yoghurt taste yummy though, but its better when its not heated xD


Then i made indiase tahoe. But i have a feeling that the morocco-yoghurt is different than the alpro soya yoghurt since it doesnt look like they used yoghurt in the pic in the book xD The heated yoghurt smelled like sour socks again, so i think i prefer making scrambled tofu or something if i use tofu =p (i made scrambled tofu with the remaining tofu xD) I also didnt have munt. And i served on bread instead of naan =p


Then i made filled vegetables. I was too lazy to make the extra sauce for pouring over like in the recipe, so i just added the ingredients i had in the filling. And like always im missing or replacing ingredients =p Atleast i had all the vegetables xD The bell pepper tasted yummiest but i still prefer the filled bell pepper that i normally make. I also forgot to salt and pepper the filling =(



Then i made mushroom risotto, using a different kind of mushrooms than in the recipe and i boiled the mushrooms together with the rice instead of adding them at the end so it would have more mushroom taste.


Last i made filled videetjes (i have no idea what that means but its filled puff pastry xD). These were pretty cool =p I burnt the puff pastry though (my oven likes to burn food), and i replaced some vegetables, so i used carrot, broccoli, peas, and brussel sprouts while recipe suggested carrots, cauliflower, asparagus, peas or green beans, and peultjes but i dunno what that is xD The sauce was pretty good too! I used coconut milk instead of soy cream for the sauce and it worked out good =p


Its snow here now btw =D And pretty cold xD I am also jogging less than at start since i guess its smart to have resting days so legs dont get overworked and dont wanna run >.>

    1. Nei, Kevin vil ikke smake engang =p Han foretrekker mat han kjenner, og han liker ikke sà mye av det jeg lager (kanskje fordi jeg krydrer for mye og bruker ingredienser han ikke liker =p)

      Jeg er vel egentlig ikke sà kreativ siden jeg bruker random number generator til à bestemme sidetallet i kokebôkene jeg bruker =p Men synes det er lettere og mer spennende sànn =p Og sà hopper jeg over eller bytter halvparten av ingrediensene og avogtil fremgangsmàten ogsà xD

      Takk for kommentar =D
