Spaghetti á la Mari :)

This is very simple dish that my family used to make since forever, I've changed it a bit to fit my taste and everyone can do the same aswell. I mean who doesn't know how to make spaghetti bolognese?

Ingredients:

Spaghetti
salt
olive oil

sauce:

ca. 500g minced meat
2dl creme fraiche/smetana/cooking cream
ketchup/tomato sauce
spices (salt, pepper, sweet pepper, garlic, herbs...)
water

How to make:

Prepare the spaghetti according to packet instructions, add salt and a little bit of olive oil.

Fry the minced meat ready and add spices. Mix the creme fraice with meat and add ketchup. Check the taste and add more spices if needed. If the sauce is heavy add some water.



See, that's all you have to do and dinner is ready in 10 minutes. Easy and still taste good. You can add some vegetables to it if you like, such as onion and carrots..

Eid Mubarak!

Here's pictures of some of the food we made during Eid, I will add recipes later. As introduction, these dishes are from Morocco and Middle-East.

Easy Noodle Wok

This Noodle wok is good when you're in a hurry or lazy to cook something that takes longer time. It can be ready in 10-20 minutes and it's very tasty. This one I made with salmon but usually I like to use chicken or some meat with it. I didn't put much vegetables this time since my husband asked me not to but the recipe I put here includes more of those. Also good for vegetarians if you use only noodles and vegetables!

Ingredients:

- Noodles

- salmon/tuna/chicken/meat/shrimps etc.

- 300g wok vegetables

- sweet & sour sauce

How to make:

1. Prepare the noodles according to the packet instructions.

2. Fry the vegetables and meat (if you use) in oil. If you use frozen vegetables and salmon like I did then fry the vegetables first since they take more time than salmon.

3. Add noodles in wok and mix, add the sweet & sour sauce and mix well.

4. Enjoy!
