Real food for real life.
When I first tried these vegetable fajitas, I was blown away. Seriously, the combination of these flavours just works! They’re based on a Marley Spoon dish from more then ten years ago, and I still make them. Sometimes they just stick. The sweet potato and red onion get lovely and […]
Amazingly delicious and simple grilled chicken avocado salad. Dinner or lunch will be served in 10 minutes!
Soto Ayam is one of those soups that feels like a complete meal in a bowl. Chicken, egg, potatoes, vegetables, rice, a little sambal and plenty of crispy onions. This is my quick version, using ready-made Soto Ayam boemboe rather than making the spice paste from scratch. Growing up, I […]
Ginger beef in lettuce wraps Because we love love love Korean food, our own quick fusion variant of a Korean dish, these Korean beef lettuce wraps. These kind of things is what keeps from being a vegetarian just yet, maybe I’ll find a good alternative someday, but for now, get […]
A nourishing, creamy lentil dahl with roasted cauliflower, warming spices, fresh herbs and yogurt. Comfort food that leaves you feeling grounded, satisfied and energised instead of heavy.
Even though it is summer here, sometimes I just feel like a warm nurturing dish. Something that warms my body, gives my face a glow and, as a bonus, is full of all the right nutrients.
A warm salmon poke bowl with brown rice, crisp vegetables, avocado, edamame and a punchy miso marinade. Topped with sesame, spring onion and either crispy salmon skin or nori, it’s fresh, satisfying and easy to make for lunch or dinner. Bam! Switching all my carbs to wholegrain/wholewheat, so wanted to […]
This is variation on the classic Indonesian vegetable dish, so a modern gado gado, which literally means ‘Mix Mix’ and is a very easy quick to make meal. I have been introduced to Indonesian food in my early childhood. My friend’s parents owned an Indonesian restaurant, and when I stayed […]
A colorful, kinda crazy poke bowl. It was actually an experiment based on a papaya poke bowl, but I could not find Papaya…, hence mango it is. Very tasty and very pleasant to look at!
Its treasure season! Meaning the white gold is coming to the surface and can be found in stores and markets again. Its one of my favorites because it is so easy to make (especially if you kindly ask the store to peel them for you). And fast, your lunch can […]
Hello you, My name is Peggy and this is a place where I share recipes, life hazards, philosophical mind spinsels and everything somehow wrapped in a coat of food. Because I find that food talks life. I love dishes that are quick, nourishing, pretty, made with love and sometimes a little bit messy. Real food for real life.
