Roasted Cauliflower with Parsley Sauce

Sunday, May 19, 2013


http://schneiderchen.de | © 2013 | http://angiesrecipes.blogspot.com




Thick "steaks" are cut from a head of cauliflower, simply seasoned and drizzled with olive oil, then baked until tender. They are served with a very simple parsley sauce, which can be prepared up to 3 days in advance. This way of preparing cauliflower is very simple and wonderfully delicious!

Parsley Sauce
  • 1 head / 750g Cauliflower
  • 2 tbsp Extra virgin olive oil
  • Sea salt
  • Freshly ground pepper
  • 1 bunch Flat parsley, leaves only
  • 1/2 bunch Chives
  • Sea salt
  • Freshly ground pepper
  • 80 ml Vegetable stock
  • 1 tbsp Dry white wine
  • 2 tbsp Olive oil
  1. Preheat oven 200C/400F degrees. Drizzle a large baking sheet with 1 tablespoon of olive oil.
  2. Wash the cauliflower and remove the tough outer leaves of the cauliflower and discard. Cut cauliflower vertically into 1/4-inch-thick slices. Arrange in a single layer on prepared pan. Drizzle cauliflower with remaining tablespoon of olive oil. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Bake for 30 minutes or until golden brown.
  3. While the cauliflowers are roasting, combine all of the ingredients except the olive oil for the green sauce in a blender and process into a smooth sauce. With the motor running, open lid and slowly drizzle in olive oil. Serve with roasted cauliflowers.

Coconut Cream White Chocolate Mousse

Tuesday, May 14, 2013


http://schneiderchen.de | © 2013 | http://angiesrecipes.blogspot.com




A delightful combination of rich white chocolate and silky coconut cream, with a complimentary raspberry sauce in one creamy and luscious sweet treat.

Coconut Cream White Chocolate Mousse

adapted from nigella
Raspberry SauceMousse
  • 400 g Frozen unsweetened raspberries
  • 1-2 tbsp Honey or to taste
  • 200 g Good-quality white chocolate, finely chopped
  • 1 can Coconut cream
  • 2 Egg whites
  • 1/4 tsp Lemon juice
  1. Defrost the unsweetened frozen raspberries in the microwave. Once the berries have completely thawed, force the juice from the berries by gently pressing the berries with the back of a spoon. Throw away the seeds and, to the strained juice, stir in the honey until combined. Serve or store in an airtight container, refrigerated, for up to 5 days.
  2. Put the can of coconut milk in the refrigerator for several hours (or overnight). Scrap off the solid top layer of creamy coconut, careful not to include any of the liquid on the bottom of the can. The coconut water can be used in making the smoothie or baking bread.
  3. Whip the coconut cream with an electric mixer until it has the airy texture of whipped cream, about 5 minutes. Chill, covered, the whipped coconut cream in the fridge and go ahead to prepare the white chocolate.
  4. Melt the white chocolate in a heatproof bowl over a saucepan of simmering water. Remove from heat.
  5. Whip the egg whites and lemon juice until stiff peaks form, then fold into the chocolate mixture, in 2 batches, until well combined. Remove the whipped coconut cream from the fridge and fold into the chocolate mixture.
  6. Divide into 4 glasses and refrigerate for 4 hours or overnight until just set. Serve topped with raspberry sauce.

Gluten Free Polenta Bread with Psyllium Husks and Yoghurt

Friday, May 10, 2013


http://schneiderchen.de | © 2013 | http://angiesrecipes.blogspot.com





http://schneiderchen.de | © 2013 | http://angiesrecipes.blogspot.com


http://schneiderchen.de | © 2013 | http://angiesrecipes.blogspot.com


Due to the lack of gluten, the gluten free breads usually have a heavier, solider consistency and smaller volume compared to the standard wheat bread. Gluten, or protein, in the bread, helps the standard bread to rise and makes them soft and flexible.
Psyllium husk, derived from the outer coating of the psyllium seed, is a complete natural fiber and does not contain any additives or preservatives. It is a top herb used in weight control and for general intestinal health. Psyllium is sold as whole husks and powder. Get the whole psyllium husks if have access to them.
I have used finely ground polenta flour in this recipe, but other gluten free flours (teff, rice, or sorghum) will work fine too.

Gluten Free Polenta Bread with Psyllium Husks and Yoghurt

adapted from here
  • 480 ml Lukewarm water
  • 30 g Fresh yeast
  • 2 tbsp Honey
  • 110 g Plain yoghurt
  • 60 ml Olive oil
  • 30 g Golden flaxseed, crushed
  • 50 g Psyllium husks
  • 450 g Finely ground polenta flour
  • 2 tsp Sea salt
  1. In a mixing bowl, mix the lukewarm water, honey and fresh yeast. Let sit for 5 minutes to activate the yeast. Whisk the yoghurt, 50ml olive oil, crushed flaxseed and psyllium husks into the yeast mixture. Let stand for 2 minutes to let the flaxseed and psyllium release their gelatinous substances.
  2. Toss together the polenta flour and salt in another mixing bowl. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry and mix together with a large wooden spoon until thick. Then knead the dough on a worktop to mix everything until incorporated. Return the dough to the bowl, cover and moist towel and leave for 30-45 minutes.
  3. Line a baking tray with baking paper. Form the dough into an oval shape, that is approximately the length of the pan, then brush with extra olive oil, cover and leave to rise for 45 minutes.
  4. Heat the oven to 240C/465F, uncover the dough and slash the top with a small sharp knife, sprinkle with a little polenta to give it a floured look and bake for about 40 minutes, or until golden-brown in colour. Leave to cool on a wire rack before slicing.

Five Grain Spelt Bread with Grapeseed Flour and Malt Extract

Saturday, May 04, 2013


http://schneiderchen.de | © 2013 | http://angiesrecipes.blogspot.com




http://schneiderchen.de | © 2013 | http://angiesrecipes.blogspot.com


This nutritiously delicious homemade bread with perfectly moist crumb and lightly chewy crust, made with soaked 5 grains, grape seed flour, and spelt bread flour along with liquid barley malt extract, which adds so much more flavour and complexity to the taste.
Grape seed flour, naturally high in protein, and OPC (one of the most potent antioxidants known — 50 times as powerful as vitamin E), is known for its great taste and can be added to almost every meal.

Five Grain Spelt Bread with Grapeseed Flour and Malt Extract

adapted from Brot-Bernd Armbrust
©angiesrecipes
  • 300 ml Water, boiling
  • 300 g Organic 5-grain mix, crushed
  • 35 g Fresh yeast
  • 100 g Liquid barley malt extract
  • 250 ml Lukewarm water
  • 420 g Spelt bread flour
  • 100 g Grape seed flour
  • 22 g Salt
  • 2-3 tbsp Pumpkin seeds
  1. Pour the boiling water over crushed 5-grain mix in a large bowl. Cover and let it swell for at least 4 hours or overnight until the water has been all absorbed.
  2. Dissolve the fresh yeast and malt extract in the lukewarm water. Add in spelt bread flour, grape seed flour and salt. Stir for 2 minutes until combined. Now add in the soaked 5-grain mixture. Stir at low speed for 3 minutes, then increase the speed and knead for a further 5 minutes.
  3. Transfer the dough ono a floured work surface. Fold the dough a few times and shape into a round. Cover the dough with a kitchen towel and rest for 25 minutes. Do a stretch-and-fold every 15 minutes. Line two loaf pans with baking paper. Divide the dough into two portions and form each into a log. Place each into a loaf pan. Brush the tops with water and sprinkle with pumpkin seeds. Cover with kitchen towel and proof for 30 minutes.
  4. At the same time, preheat the oven to 220C/410F with a shallow tray filled with water sitting at the bottom of the oven. Once the oven has reached the desired temperature, remove the tray filled with water and bake the loaves in the center of the hot oven for about 50 minutes.

Strawberry Soya Protein Balls with Chia Seeds

Friday, April 19, 2013


http://schneiderchen.de | © 2013 | http://angiesrecipes.blogspot.com




These protein dessert balls are made of fresh berries, soya protein, almonds and chia seeds. If you are not keen on consuming soy protein isolate, rice, pea, or whey protein are just as good. I love covering them with chia seeds for the extra delicious crunch and earthy look. Go for the white chocolate coating if you have a sweet tooth.

  • 125 g Strawberries
  • 75 g Blueberries
  • 1 tbsp Chia seeds
  • 125 g Almonds, toasted and ground
  • 2-3 tbsp Soya protein isolate, strawberry flavour
  • 50 g Almond slices, roughly chopped
  • 50 g Chia seeds for coating
  • 200 g White chocolate couverture
  1. Puree the berries and mix with chia seeds, ground almonds, soya protein and roughly chopped almond slices in a bowl.
  2. Shape the mixture into balls. Cover with a plastic film and refrigerate for an hour.
  3. Melt the white chocolate couverture over a pot of hot water. Roll the balls with chia seeds. Or dip with the melted white chocolate.
