Tortilla de patatas

I love tortilla de patatas (even more after visiting Barcelona) and I was thinking, it can't be that difficult to cook it at home! So I started to search the recipes and of course, as always, there were thousands of them on the internet. So I created a combination, which surprisingly worked really well and we finished the tortilla in 2 days!! (2 people!). Try it, is really easy and tasty!! You will need a round frying pan which can stay in the oven (with metallic handle).

Yellow Chicken Curry

My dear readers, today I am going to present you one of the recipes I mastered. I was working on it the whole winter trying to find the perfect balance of taste and to reproduce the amazing taste of curry you normally get in European restaurants. You really have to try this and I am pretty sure, you will love it the same way like I do...

Tomato soup

This is one of my most favourite soups. The recipe comes from my mom and she used to cook this soup for me over and over when I was studying for my final exams. That's why it is quite sentimental and tastes like my childhood. Now, don't expect here any fancy recipe made from fresh tomatoes. This comes all from can/box but on the other hand, it will have the same taste also in the winter. It is super easy and super fast, takes around 15 min to prepare and it's perfect when in the winter when you need to warm up your stomach :) The ingredients will serve around 4-6 people (depending how hungry they are :) )

Heavenly chocolate cupcakes

My sister was visiting me and her boyfriend was supposed to join us as well. I haven’t met him before and my sister was telling me how much he likes to eat. We were thinking that we should probably prepare something special. So my hunt for the best chocolate cupcake started. I found couple of recipes and here is what I mixed together. The result were these amazing cupcakes, really sweet but FANTASTIC! If you love chocolate, you will love these cupcakes! Trust me! This recipes will make you around 32-35 pieces!


Strawberries marinated in red wine

This is a recipe from French grandma of my fiancee, it is very very simple and very tasty. It's perfect in case you bought strawberries which are not exactly sweet and it's more original than serving just cut strawberries. It will take you around 10 minutes and count on 2-3 hours for marinating in the fridge. This serves easily 4 people. I recommend to serve it with vanilla ice-cream! 




Hugo

Let me introduce you one of my most favourite drinks - Hugo! It became very IN in the past years in Zürich where I live and you can get it in every bar or restaurant. I like its refreshing and not too sweet taste, plus you can prepare it at home! Here is how you do that:
