Lenten Dishes

Zucchini on a grill pan

In zucchini season, it's a godsend – chop everything up, marinate it for a couple of minutes, put it in a frying pan and the vegetables are ready. If you don't have a grill pan, you can grill these zucchini in the oven, or roast them in a regular frying pan.

Canned zucchini salad

 This salad came in handy during zucchini season when we needed to utilize them immediately. We recently opened the first jar and it was immediately empty. It was very tasty and savory, so don't miss this appetizer in the summer season.

Jamie Oliver's beet gravlax

Semmon, salmon or trout – it's always delicious, and if you cook it according to Jamie Oliver's recipe, no one will be left indifferent! It's simple and quick, as always with Jamie, but delicious. I advise you to remember this recipe, because the New Year and a lot of holidays are just around the corner.

Granola

You can change the composition of granola to suit you, I've added the goodies I love and the goodies I want to use but don't eat pure, like flax and pumpkin seeds. I use it very simply: pour it in yogurt or ryazhenka – and breakfast is ready! But you can also add it to cottage cheese, or sprinkle it on top of a pie, or even make a salad.

Raspberry vinegar

This dressing has been in my kitchen for several years now. I can't go without it! It goes great on fresh salads and meat dishes. I even dress my regular coleslaw with this vinegar.

Pierre Hermé's chocolate marshmallows.

Another experiment with marshmallows. We liked the first ones fruit puree very much, now I tried the chocolate ones. I made them for cake decorations and for treats for the kids, but it turns out they are delicious with coffee. You just have to throw a few pieces into hot coffee and wait for the marshmallow to melt, forming a delicious chocolate foam on top. All in all, tasty little things that can be eaten in many different ways. They're delicious.

Vanilla panna cotta with strawberries and basil

Cream and strawberries are timeless classics, and basil and strawberries are already becoming recognized classics as well. I combined these three ingredients into one dish and the boring creamy panna cotta took on a new flavor. It's very easy and quick to make, and it's perfect for both home treats and guests.

Spaghetti with pesto sauce

This dish is a lifesaver when you don't want to spend much time in the kitchen. The Pesto recipe I've already written about is an absolutely amazing sauce that goes great with fish, as a salad dressing, and can turn ordinary pasta into a restaurant dish. Everything is quite simple - while the pasta is boiling, you whip up the sauce in a blender, and in 15 minutes you serve a delicious dish. Even meat lovers will be delighted, proven!

Baked eggplant with tomatoes and apricots under grain curd

The combination, at first glance, unusual: eggplant, tomato, apricot, garlic, basil and mint and all this under the grain curd, but with full responsibility I declare – the final result will not leave you indifferent, provided that all the ingredients are your favorite. The combination of eggplant, tomato, apricot, and garlic, basil and mint and all this under the grain curd.
