Pasta in cream sauce with lemony asparagus.
Mitarashi dango!
It was my second time making dango and it actually turned out okay this time. The sauce was really nice, savoury yet sweet - mhmm! You can read more about dango and all the different variations of it here on the good ol' Wikipedia.
Donuts! And Strawberries, too.. But the donuts are clearly the star here :D
Oh how I wish one of the local bakeries would offer vegan donuts, sadly that's not the case - perhaps someday? This recipe from Cooking Vegan Food Up North was easy to make and it provided me with a generous amount of delicious fresh donuts - highly recommended.
Sesame & Spring Onion Ramen
A plate full of tofu scramble & veggie goodness.
If only I could eat this everyday. Simple pan fried tofu scramble with steamed asparagus, avocado and a drizzle of balsamic vinegar.
Jam & vegan cream cheese sandwiches, a banana, strawberries and raw almond butter.
Onde Onde
Onde Onde are chewy fried rice cakes rolled in sesame seeds and filled with a sweet mung bean paste. I was so surprised to spot these at a local Asian grocery shop, because it's really hard to find freshly made Asian desserts, snacks and bakery style~ goodies for sale here in Germany. Small unexpected finds like this are just the best!
A breakfast food you can't go wrong with: Pancakes!
These came out just perfect. Slightly crispy on the top with just the right amount of fluffy pancake-y goodness on the inside. Topped with a little margarine and golden syrup. Unfortunately I can't remember what recipe I used, possibly one from Vegan Brunch?
Breakfast: Peach green tea and grapefruit.
I wish I had taken a better photo of this because the flesh of the grapefruit had such a nice shade of red, but I forgot to take one with my DSRL. Ah well~, another time.
Rice paper rolls filled with letuce, vegan bulgogi and OJ.
The recipe for the bulgogi can be found on Vegan8Korean. They have three different recipes: Gochujang Bulgogi (hot & spicy), Tempeh Bulgogi and Bulgogi Style Seitan. I have tried the first two and they're both immensely tasty. :)
Vanilla-Pudding & Chocolate Cake
Fluffy vanilla cake, a layer of vanilla pudding and a layer of chocolate ganache. The ganache looked a little funky after it had hardened, but it didn't harm the taste at all. I am not ashamed to say that I ate the entire pan in two days... ^^;
Raw zucchini pasta in cheese sauce with crumbled burger patty leftovers.
Homemade kimchi.
As usual I used Maangchi's recipe: Easy Kimchi (Mak Kimchi)
You can replace the fish sauce with some soy sauce and leave out the squid, no problem! Or you could use this completely vegan recipe by Vegan8Korean, yum!
Well, that's it for now! I hope you're all enjoying summer. Talk to you soon ♥
Julia, your kimchi looks so yummy. Thanks for mentioning our recipe! :) Have to arrived in Seoul yet? Keep us posted!
ReplyDeleteAll your food looks amazing! Would you come cook for me please? :D
ReplyDeleteAs usual, I am completely overwhelmed by the beauty of your photographs. Even though I think I recognized the ones taken with your cellphone, there is no need to apologize for they just look great too!
ReplyDeleteI don't know if you've checked out my blog lately but I put together some rice paper sushi rolls a couple of weeks ago and I was wondering how to make the rice paper sheet stick together on the edges so that the roll doesn't fall apart. Do you have any suggestions for me? :)
beautiful photos and what a great variety of dishes!
ReplyDeletedu solltest ein veganes restaurant aufmachen <3 am besten in Hamburg <3
ReplyDeleteHi,
ReplyDeleteYour blog is just too cute and all of the food looks very good!
But where are you? It seems you disappeared :( ...
Also, I've got a question: You mentioned ordering from iHerb.com a while ago. How does it work for orders to Germany? Did you encounter any problems (like having to pay taxes?)? I'd be very thankful for the information!
