Spaghetti carbonara

Spaghetti Carbonara

I think that whenever a recipe is easy and has few ingredients than it is the best. Spaghetti carbonara reminds me of the simple and fabulous homemade recipes that our grandmas used to make for us. They didn’t use fancy “sauces” or expensive cooking utensils, all they had was easy and accessible ingredients, yet they could make the most wonderful and tasty dish in the world.

Indian Chicken Chickpeas Curry

Ingredients:

  • 200g chickenfilet
  • 1 can chickpeas (400g net weight)
  • 1 carrot
  • 2 onions
  • 3 gloves garlic
  • 1 tblsp chopped ginger
  • 200ml ayran (use 100ml yoghurt/100ml water instead, or 200ml coconut cream/dash water)
  • 1 tsp cumin powder
  • 1 tsp turmeric
  • 1 tblsp garam masala
  • salt and chili to taste
  • 1 tsp corn flour (no need if use coconut cream)

Preparation:

  • chop onion, garlic and carrot
  • medium heat oiled pan and add cumin, onion, turmeric,salt. stir fry
  • add chicken, let it fry for a minute, then add a bit of ayran and ginger
  • add carrots and let them fry for a minute in the middle of the pan
  • add the rest of ayran (or yoghurt/or coconut cream) and change to low heat
  • now add the chickpeas, garam masala, thick it up with corn flour and spice with chili and salt
  • stirfry, let it all cook with low heat for 20 minutes
  • serve with basmati rice or eat it plain with cooked egg
  • enjoy!

Yes, i am aware of ayran has nothing to do with India, thats the ingredient i had at home though and just used it (successfully) for that curry. normally yoghurt or coconut cream is used 🙂

Improve the recipe:

Prepare the chickenfilet one day before, put it raw in a bowl, mix it with 50ml Yoghurt and the chopped ginger and garlic, store it in the fridge. The aroma of garlic and ginger will be even better on the chicken.

No Rule Recipes

Dont follow my Instructions of the Recipes!

The Recipes i post here should be Inspirations for you to try out new things by yourself. For example I say add zucchini? Zou dont like zucchini, add another vegetable instead! Olive oil is not your favourite choice of healthy fat? Add whatever you feel its good for you. You prefer a vegan or vegetarian lifestyle? You will find substitutes for example for eggs or dairy. Google is your friend and in time there will be more and more infos here at the blog 😉

About Vegetables and Fruits  you should be oriented to use seasonal products to support the producers in your regions in my opinion. Another reason can be living on a budget as well. Seasonal products are often the cheapest. By the way cant wait for strawberry time here in germany, it is starting in April right? 🙂 .

Yes, follow my recipes like i post them but try to see cooking like painting a picture and add your favourite colors. for example i suggest adding 1tsp cinnamon, why not try double the amount?

I suggest ground hazelnuts, try ground almonds or maybe coconut flakes instead! cooking is so much fun when not following rules and exploring. you will find what tastes best for you!

My Recipes are just an orientation, showing you there are alternatives to the common diet of our western societies which use too much processed foods with high sugar and low quality fats and proteins.

Cooking wins always against processed foods and actually there should be always 15 minutes of time to create a healthy, easy and delicious meal.

Hope you enjoy your visit at my blog!

Whatever you enjoy doing, keep it up and dont forget to smile!
