cereals no 2

I got a email asking some more about my musli that I do. 

If I could explain bit more how I do it. 

So sure :)

Here it comes!

 I mix oil, water and some honey, and spread it over some oat. 

I let this roast in the over, in 200 C until they get brownish and crunchy. You can as well add some coco leaf when doing this. 

They get very nice when being roasted in oven for a while. 

When taken out, just add any kind of raisin, nuts and seeds. Cool down

Mix 1.5 cups of corn flour, 1 cup wheat flour, 2 tables spoon oil and water until it's like a dough. 

Bake it thin, thin, as you see the little girl doing. Make sure you have flour underneath it, when you bake it, so it wont stick! 

Bake it in the oven as well, on the same degree as above. 

It takes about 10 min. After half the time, turn it around. 

When cooled down, just break it into small pieces, and you have your corn flakes!

Mix it with the rest of the cereals, and you have your musli!

You can if you want to, add some honey as well in the dough for the corn flakes, but I prefer not to. 

So there you have it! 

Good luck, and enjoy! 

Jamie Oliver, You are just sooo wrong

Jamie Oliver, this it for You. This is written just for you. 

My husband bought one of your books. It's many nice things in it. Many interesting recipes in it, that looks very good. 

All of them should be easy and fast to make. 

So. 

So I decided yesterday that I would do the Ravioli that You made in this cook book. You talk about it, that it's such a easy thing and that anyone can do it. Ravioli, just a piece of pasta a filling and another piece of paste covering it. 

Boil and done. 

Jamie Oliver, I'm no Michelien chef, nor am I a totally beginner. Been cooking for long time, and would say I am a semi good one. 

It's not often I fail terribly with food. 

Well I can't really remember any times with failure. 

Jamie, You claim that anyone could cook these raviolis. Easy, fast, fun. 

I cooked for hours, when I cook it's usually get messy but hey this was even to much for being me. was a CHAOS. 

And definitely not fun. 

Mess mess and mess!

I think she was wondering what the heck.. 

Somewhat nice looking ones.  

I demand that you change your book! 

Hihi :)

Cereals all done!

I really think, that we all should think about what we eat. 

What we eat, when we eat, how we eat, where the food come from, what's inside the food, how  did it come to my plate, how much good or bad things is it in it. 

We should all question our self this. We have one life, and we should take care of us. 

We have one earth, and we should take care of it. 

As much as people are talking about meditations, and yoga to come to inner peace, I think that we should talk about what we put in us. 

You are what you eat. 

Making your own food, from scratch might take some more time, but not a lot. 

Might not taste as the thing in the store, but that's because often it's added strange chemicals to make it taste. 

My musli and mu bread is two things that I do. All from scratch. 

And yes, it's own made corn flakes inside the musli. 

Easy, fast and it taste as the shop thing. 

Cooking

I cook almost everyday. Just when I came to Czech Republic I almost never cooked. 

One reason was that I didn't live in places where I felt I could cook. And as well, as I had a very active social life. I was out meeting people, most of the days after work. 

Life has changed, and now I am more home and I've really come to love the home staying. In the beginning of my motherhood I struggled with it. 

Always be home, always eat home, always miss the parties, the friends everything, always need to cook, always need to do the things at home. 

I guess it was an adjustment process, but today I find it very lovely. I like to get out and eat once in a while but just like that, once in a while. 

One big reason for this as well is that I think that my husband and I are very good in cooking. It happens rather often, that we go to a place to eat and we come out from there with the feeling that we could have done it the same, if not even better. 

SO what's the point then?

Today I made a very good pasta sauce, 

1 Onion

3 slices of bacon

1/2 red pepper

1 big carrot

some cream and milk, 

mustard

salt

peppar.

Fry the onion with the bacon until the onion is just soft. 

Add the pepper and carrot. 

Let all the vegetables be fried soft. 

Add the cream and some milk. 

Salt and peppar, some mustard and just a bit of white wine. 

Let it all simmer fora  bit. 

Boil some pasta and eat!

I actually ate it with soft boiled white cabbage, I think that is very nice! 

Today I also had the "nice" china, let the baby sleep little bit longer, so I ate alone put Zucchero on and just enjoyed! 

Do that YOU TOO1

Roasted chicken

I like chicken, but not all of them. I like nice chicken, chicken that taste something. All chickens don't do that. 

Never buy a chicken in a supermarket. Or at least not in the supermarkets here in Czech Republic. It doesn't taste anything. 

Go and buy it in bio store, they are more expensive but they taste better. 

Or you can go to prazka trznice, to hala 22 to the woman that sells chicken. They taste really really good. 

As well more pricy but they are SO good. 

Even better is if you separate the skin from the chicken breast, stuff in half oranges and some bacon.

In side the chicken you stuff rest of the orange, bacon, half a onion, and one carrot. Smear the top of the breast with butter and salt and pepper it. 

IN the oven, on medium high temperature 

LOVELY

The oranges and bacon in the breast makes it juicy and it cooks slower, as the breast can be bit tricky to keep juicy. But this really makes it perfect. 

Try it, me and my little kiddo just eat like crazy. 

   

But I really believe that it's best with a chicken that is just not factory farmed!

Musli

I didn't use to like it, as the bags I bought with musli, was always so so. 

Almost only oat, no berries or seed. And very expensive. 

So I started to do my own one so I can decide was to have inside it. 

 Roasting some oat cereals with honey. Makes it a bit crispy and tiny bit of sweetness. 

Chopped some nuts, and dries fruits. Added seeds as well. 

Some cornflakes, and raisins. And:

Voila!

I just love it.  

Dinner times 2

Pasta, that my little girl, husband and me did today. 

4 deci of chic pee flour

2 eggs

1 egg yolk

1 tblspoon of oil

and some water

just mix it all together, work the dough for 5 about 5 minutes until it is shiny and even. Leave in the fridge for about 30 minutes. 

To make the pasta it is easier with a pasta machine, but we did it by hand. 

Just need to roll and roll and roll and roll. :)

I made it with chic pee flour, as I try not to eat to much "fast" carbs. I did grate the chic pees myself, but I do recommend to by it already grated. 

Is so much better!

It´s not common in our house anymore, but sometimes we eat two hot meals a day. 

Uses the left over pasta from the day and added lenthels, and  made meat balls. 

 300 gr of beef meat

some garlic, 

some salt and pepper, 

2 tblspoon milk

some oregano

roll them and cook. yummy yummy

Using my phone camera at the moment, awfully bad pictures right?

For the hungry one

Made some nice oat cookies for the little one. 

Small cookies that we can bring, when we are out.

100 gr of butter. 

3 deci of oat 

0.75 deci of flour

0-0.5 deci of sugar

1 tbs of soda bicarbonate

Mix it all together, make 12-15 balls. Press gently with fork on them.
