Thursday, April 02, 2015

http://schneiderchen.de | © 2015 | http://angiesrecipes.blogspot.com




This is a rather simple and delicious low-carb, low-calorie recipe that I found here. Cod fillets baked with a combination of mushrooms, kale, spring onions and cooking cream. It also works well with many types of fish. Pollock and tilapia make perfect substitutes.

  • 400 g Mushrooms
  • 3-4 stalk Spring onions
  • 1 tbsp Olive oil
  • 150 g Kale, chopped
  • 100 ml 15% Cooking cream or milk
  • Sea salt
  • Freshly ground black pepper
  • 600 g Cod fillets
  • Juice of 1 small lemon
  • 1 tbsp Cornstarch
  1. Clean, trim and thinly slice the mushrooms. Cut the spring onions into rings, reserve 2 tablespoons of green rings for garnishing. Preheat the oven to 180C/350F.
  2. Heat the oil in a large skillet. Add in the remaining chopped spring onions. Cook briefly. Add in sliced mushrooms and cook for 2-3 minutes. Add in chopped kale and cooking cream, cooking until everything is heated through. Season with salt and pepper. Transfer to a baking form.
  3. Rinse and pat the cod fillets dry with a paper towel. Sprinkle with lemon juice and coat with cornstarch seasoned with salt an pepper. Place them on the top of vegetables and bake in the middle of hot oven for about 20 minutes. Remove and garnish with reserved spring onions.

Dukkah-crusted Chicken Tenders with Red Lentil and Broccoli Salad

Sunday, March 22, 2015

http://schneiderchen.de | © 2015 | http://angiesrecipes.blogspot.com





http://schneiderchen.de | © 2015 | http://angiesrecipes.blogspot.com


Oven-baked chicken tenders, adapted from Taste, spiced up with a crunchy Middle Eastern spice blend of toasted, coarsely ground hazelnuts, sesame, and spices. You can serve them with a sweet-sour sauce of honey and balsamic vinegar or on a bed of salad of choice.
Originally from Egypt, dukkah is a mixture of nuts (hazelnuts, almonds or pistachios), seeds and spices. The traditional way to serve fragrant Dukkah is with olive oil and bread – dunk the bread in olive oil, then the dukkah. You can also use for a crust on lamb or fish.

SaladHazelnut Dukkah
  • 200 g Red lentils
  • 1 head Broccoli, trimmed, cut into florets
  • 1 Small red onion, cut into rings
  • 100 g Grape tomatoes, halved
  • Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper
  • 8 / 350 g Chicken tenders
  • 2 tbsp Olive oil
  • 2 tbsp Honey
  • 1 tbsp Red wine vinegar
  • 11/2 tsp Coriander seeds
  • 2 tsp Cumin seeds
  • 1 tsp Black peppercorns
  • 2 tsp Sea salt
  • 160 g Hazelnuts, toasted
  • 35 g Sesame seeds, toasted
  • 1/2 tsp Ground ginger
  • 1/2 tsp Ground cinnamon
  • 2 tsp Ground turmeric
  1. Preheat oven to 180C/350F. Spread the hazelnuts over a baking tray and cook in preheated oven for 3-4 minutes or until toasted. Rub the hazelnuts between a clean tea towel to remove as much skin as possible. Place the toasted hazelnuts in the bowl of a food processor and process until coarsely chopped. Transfer to a large bowl.
  2. Heat a medium frying pan over medium heat. Add the sesame seeds and cook, stirring, for 1-2 minutes or until golden. Add to the bowl with the hazelnuts.
  3. Place coriander, cumin seeds and black peppercorns in a dry frying pan over medium heat, and cook, stirring frequently, for 1-2 minutes or until aromatic and seeds begin to pop. Transfer seeds to a mortar and pestle with sea salt. Pound until finely crushed. Add the crushed spices to the hazelnut mixture and mix well.
  4. Place chicken tenders on a plate. Coat both sides with hazelnut dukkah. Place them on a baking pan. Drizzle with 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Bake at 190C/375F for 18-20 minutes or until golden and cooked through.
  5. Place the lentils in a medium saucepan and cover with cold water. Set the saucepan over medium-high heat, bring to a boil and cook until they are just barely tender and still quite red, about 2 minutes. Drain and rinse with cold water to halt the cooking process. Shake out all excess water, and then put the red lentils into a large bowl.
  6. Cook the broccoli in a large saucepan of boiling water for 3-4 minutes or until bright green and tender crisp. Refresh under cold running water. Drain and add to the lentils in the bowl.
  7. Whisk together the honey, red wine vinegar and the remaining olive oil. Season with salt and pepper. Add the dressing, red onion and grape tomatoes to the lentils and broccoli. Toss to combine. Transfer salad to the serving plates and top with dukkah coated chicken tenders.

Coconut Honey Spelt Cookies

Monday, March 16, 2015

http://schneiderchen.de | © 2015 | http://angiesrecipes.blogspot.com





http://schneiderchen.de | © 2015 | http://angiesrecipes.blogspot.com


The title pretty much sums it up. These cookies are chewy, delicious and probably healthier than your typical cookie because of wholewheat spelt flour. They're made with honey and coconut oil so it's a refined sugar free and dairy free snack. Feel free to use maple syrup or golden syrup, instead of honey, and chia seed egg instead of egg, if you must go vegan.

Coconut Honey Spelt Cookies

adapted from Donna Hay
  • 100 g Coconut oil, at room temperature
  • 145 g Honey
  • 10 package NuNaturals white stevia powder
  • 60 g Applesauce
  • 2 tsp Vanilla extract
  • 1 Large egg
  • 280 g Wholegrain spelt flour
  • 1 tsp Baking soda
  • 1 tsp Anise powder
  • 1 tsp Cinnamon powder
  • 50 g Raw sugar for rolling, optional
  1. Preheat oven to 180C/350F. Place the coconut oil, honey, NuNaturals white stevia, applesauce, vanilla and egg in the bowl of an electric mixer and beat for 4–5 minutes or until thickened and pale.
  2. Add the wholegrain spelt flour, baking soda, and spices and beat until just combined. Refrigerate the dough for 30 minutes or until firm.
  3. Roll tablespoonfuls of the mixture into balls, then roll in the raw sugar and place on lightly greased large baking trays lined with non-stick baking paper, allowing room to spread.
  4. Bake for 10–12 minutes or until golden brown and slightly soft in the centre. For a crunchier biscuit, cook for an extra couple of minutes. Allow to cool slightly on trays before transferring to wire racks to cool completely.

http://schneiderchen.de | © 2015 | http://angiesrecipes.blogspot.com




These banana muffins with freekeh and coconut are full of flavours and texture. They are fantastic for breakfast, served with a pot of freshly brewed tea or coffee and some seasonal fruits aside. Or add them to a lunchbox or take them into work for afternoon break. Sugar here again was replaced with a mix of NuNaturals white stevia powder and unsweetened applesauce.
Freekeh is ancient roasted green spelt berries and has an awesome nutty, chewy texture. It comes in both whole and cracked forms. The spelt is harvested when it is still young and green. It is then slow roasted over coals in the hulls, and is then de-hulled resulting in a beautiful green spelt berry. You can replace it with wholegrain spelt flour.

  • 6 package NuNaturals white stevia powder
  • 100 g Unsweetened applesauce
  • 3 Ripe bananas, roughly chopped
  • 2 Medium eggs

  • 150 g Whole freekeh, ground into flour
  • 150 g Refined spelt flour
  • 2 tsp Baking powder
  • 45 g Desiccated coconut
  • 100 g Dark chocolate, chopped into chunks
  • Icing sugar, to dust, optional
  1. Line a 12-hole muffin pan with paper cases. Process melted coconut oil, stevia powder, applesauce, bananas, eggs and vanilla in a food processor until well combined.
  2. Place flours, baking powder, desiccated coconut and chocolate chunks in a large bowl, then fold in banana mixture.
  3. Divide the batter in muffin cases. Bake for 250-25 minutes or until risen and golden. Cool slightly in pan, then turn out onto a rack to cool completely. Serve dusted with icing sugar if desired.
