Steamed Clams

It is Seafood Weekend and we start out immediately with clams! They are fast, easy and pretty cheap too. I don’t really have to say it but… Super delicious as well! Clams are kind of a hassle though. You have to clean them, scrub them, make sure they are alive. After you cook them you [...]

Shrimp Appetizer

Late post today! This is a simple recipe that I need to work on. It was supposed to be similar to a “skagenröra” but it was not even remotely close, very tasty, different though. I would still serve it at a dinner party :) What I used: Shrimp Sambal Oelek Mayonnaise Black lumpfish roe Dill [...]

Shrimp Stir Fry

Weekend Vacation in Asia

The other night I made some Asian style food for dinner, or Swedish style with Asian-y ingredients I don’t know which one is more correct :P Anyhow, it was really good. Really fun and most of all pretty fast! Served two people just fine, could serve three thin girls with no problem. What you need: [...]

Honey Soy Chicken Wings

I made wings a few months back, for the first time ever actually. They turned out pretty good! Although its not the all famous American “buffalo wings” didn’t have ingredients for that. Next time ;) Anyway. It is fairly simple to make. I say this because I almost never make chicken, I’m not a big [...]

Fried Potatoes With “Italian” Sandwich

…and avocados! This was day one of trying to make my own food. And I must admit, Im awesome. I boiled two potatoes for about 20 minutes. Cut them up in a bowl and fried them with basil, garlic, oregano – all in olive oil. Added some avocados, to soften them. Then I made a [...]

Potatoes au Gratin With Steak

And again I impress myself and the people around me. Great. Today I bought some steak, since I’m a man I need protein, right? ;) Started off with boiling up some sliced up potatoes in half & half milk/cream though. Added garlic to the mix and some salt and pepper. Let them boil until very [...]
