Fried Potatoes with Fried Eggs and a Green Beans Cream Sauce


I am cooking every day now as I rediscovered the benefits. Some days ago, I made fried potatoes with fried eggs and somehow I wanted to eat green beans too. Apart from many other sauces, I had this delicious cream sauce in my kitchen cupboard. I wondered if it would taste good if I just through the green beans into the sauce and did that. Damn, I remembered that my mother once did the same and I just rediscovered how fantastic this combination is. So, I ended up with a meal that I would call “Fried potatoes with fried eggs … Continue reading Fried Potatoes with Fried Eggs and a Green Beans Cream Sauce

Muffins


This is just an experimental close-up photo of some muffins. My cousin likes to bake them and everyone in the family likes to eat them. The photo was shot with my 40mm macro lens. I don’t use that lens very often but it’s fun to experiment with. I think it also works very well with food photography. I hope I didn’t make you hungry now (laugh). Continue reading Muffins

Beef Roulade

This is also a very common German dish and extremely tasty. Continue reading Beef Roulade

Chinese Buffet


Like a month ago, I went into a Chinese Mongolian restaurant again. We decided for the buffet again.

I decided for curry rice, a delicious sauce with onions, paprika and string beans and I think it was turkey meat. And mushrooms! I can’t tell you how much I like mushrooms. We sat there for 3 hours again and had a fun … Continue reading Chinese Buffet

Mom’s Potato Salad


Potato salad is a very common dish in Germany as well. Once in a while, people like to prepare and eat a nice potato salad. I visited my mother during Christmas and at New Year’s Eve and in both cases she prepared potato salad with Bockwurst (a sausage variant). Every family prepares the potato salad in different ways but if you ask a person where you can get the best potato salad, he or she will most likely reply “If you visit my mother and or my grandma”.
