This is the main dish recipe I was talking about in my previous post. I spotted the recipe in a Romanian magazine called ‘Bucataria pentru toti’ (the September issue) so I thought I should give it a try. It was very good but very different from what I usually cook. The plums give the chicken a delicious fruity flavour that will delight your taste buds.
Time: 60 min. Prep: 15 min. Cook: 45 min.
Servings: 6-8
Ingredients:
I love plums and this Fall I was lucky as I had the chance to eat as many as I liked right from my grandma’s backyard (visited her in the Fall for the first time in 8 years). Now we’re home… no plum trees in the backyard but a great farmers’ market nearby. We went there last Sunday and I was sooo close to buying plums to make a batch of jam. I had to restrain myself from doing this since my weekend was already packed.
G.: You’ve already bought all these veggies to make assorted pickles and marinated peppers. You literally don’t have time for anything else.
Me: But still… these plums look so lovely and the plum season is drawing to an end so I’ll buy some to make a plum tart… and maybe a main dish that I had in mind with chicken and plums.
Needless to say who won of course : )) [Read more...]
This is a very easy recipe for croissants that I used to make during my high school years. The original French croissants recipe is usually more time-consuming as the dough must be chilled several times before making the actual croissant. We usually prefer chocolate / jam croissants over the regular ones (with no filling). I used plum jam and milk chocolate this time but next time I want to make them with Nutella as it spreads much easily and has a delicious taste.
