I prepared the couscous salad outdoor, near the Tungenes lighthouse in Randaberg. Currently, the facility does not fulfill its original function, but in the past it was a signpost for those entering Stavanger via the Byfjord. The lighthouse was converted into a small maritime museum and café. The area is very atmospheric, romantic, perfect for walking ... and cooking:)
Every day I bake crispbread and I can't stop. I test, try, pack....and again test, try, pack... Well dried, tightly closed, it can be stored for up to a year !!! It is worth having an emergency portion of bread in a jar. Perfect for a trip, in a vegan box, for breakfast, as an addition to soup, etc.

CARAMELIZED BRUSSELS SPROUTS WITH CARROT AND ONION
My culinary discovery last year is Brussels sprouts. I prepare it in different versions and serve it with various toppings. Its versatility still amazes me. It can be served for dinner, added to a salad, packed into a lunch box or eaten as a snack.
I can eat soups at any time of the day or night. Only a few ingredients and we have a delicious meal. On the shore of the frozen lake Stokkavatnet in Stavanger (Norway), I cooked the mushroom soup. The path around Stokka encourages jogging and walking (approx. 8 km). In winter, the frozen water can be traversed by skating or skating.
I prepared gluten-free pancakes for the first time on Valentine's Day. They smell great with fruit and chocolate. We ate them with appetite and I will definitely repeat this recipe. I am very happy when my family share my taste ... a positive impact gives me strength and energy for further culinary research.
In my family home, we used to add potatoes to every soup. I have only noticed that they are sometimes unnecessary. This recipe consists of few ingredients, so it is easy to prepare in all conditions. I tested it in my kitchen and outdoors. The attempts were excellent - long live the cauliflower !!! The hill Krossfjellet fra Figgjo (258 m a.s.l.) - Norway, is a perfect place for outdoor cooking. It overlooks the four sides of the world. Simply put, a feast for body and soul ...
I have used physalis and red Brussels sprouts for the first time in my kitchen. Brussels' purple colour is amazing... I bought two packs at the first opportunity I got:) I know the taste of physalis from my childhood, my grandma used to grow it in her garden. She said that it was raisins. Other names of physalis are: ground cherries, Inca berries, Cape gooseberries, poha berries, golden berries. They have sweet-winy flavour and beautiful, delicate leaves.
When I want to eat something, I'll probably choose savory rather than sweet food. Oven-baked burgers are easy to prepare and you don't need to do a lot. After half an hour you may hear your first crispy bite. There are many variants of serving: you can pack them in a vegan lunch box (work, school), serve with your favourite toppings or simply take them as a snack.
