Elderflower Cordial

The elderflower bloom is in its’ full swing.  If you haven’t done it yet, is still a bit of time to collect some flowers for this delicious home made cordial. For me this is the perfect summer drink.

This recipe comes from my sister-in-law’s grandma, who has a pair of magical hands when it comes to cooking or preserving food.

Fisherman’s Lecsó

Finally I’ve got some locally produced early tomato and white capsicum (yellow pepper) which are the key ingredients for a good lecsó. In Hungary lecsó is a popular dish. Usually made with lard and bacon instead of oil. This recipe is a lighter version in calories. You can leave out the fish and the butter if you vegetarian, or vegan and replace the Worchester sauce with some chilli if you like it spicy.

Salmon Fillet Baked on a Sea Salt Bed

I’ve successfully overdosed  on chocolate and eggs during Easter weekend, but spared the bunny.

I was craving for a light and simple dish to cook. I’ve found some nice salmon fillet in the shop which suited perfectly for a quick and delicious Wednesday evening supper.
