Obećala sam dragom skuhati nešto konkretno - nakon toliko sati provedenih u spremanju samo lakih i slatkih obroka. 24kitchen mi je jedan od omiljenijih TV programa, pa sam tako nekidan otkrila (znam da kasnim koju godinu, ali meni je žena itekakvo otkriće) Lorraine Pascale. Ova mlada britanka je nova generacija kuhara, koji nemaju previše vremena zbog ludog tempa života, a koja je fokusirana na svježe pripremljenu i zdravu hranu. Ovdje pod zdravu ne mislim na ful zdravu klopu, ali opet izbjegavanje kupovine polugotovih ili gotovih proizvoda. Nikad nisam bila naklonjena čak ni kupovnim tortiljama - uvijek bi prilikom spremanja meksičke mijesila tijesto i pekla tortilje na teflon tavi. Naglasak je na svemu što možete umijesiti kod kuće, vlastitim rukama u vlastitoj kuhinji (ma može i u tuđoj) :)
Dakle, Lorraine mi se činila idealnom kuharicom za moj gastro - vikend. Odlučila sam po njenom receptu spremiti grill piletinu, slatku rižu sa kukuruzom, egzotičnu salatu od kupusa i za desert prefini kolač Dolce Banana. Nisam se odlučila za pileće batake nego sam marinirala pileća krilca, a umjesto crvenog kupusa sam stavila bijeli. Isto tako, nisam imala gorušicu u prahu pa je poslužila i ona u zrnu, kao i sušene chilli papričice. Bitna je improvizacija! Ne trebam opisivati kako je piletina zbog meda u marinadi i mješavine kineskih začina bila sočna, ljepljiva i idealno grillasta, za pola sata u pećnici! Salata je jedna harmonija svježeg jogurta, neutralnog kupusa, crvenog luka, grožđica, i chilli papričica - za koje ti nije ni svejedno kad naiđeš na njih! Sve je bilo gotovo za 1.5h. Čaša crnog domaćeg vina - La vita è bella!

This weekend I skipped the usual rituals, going out and partying and decided to pursue my other love - cooking. I really love to cook, especially trying out some new techniques of food processing and blending flavors.I promised my boyfriend to cook something special - after so many hours spent in cooking pancakes, muffins and desserts. 24kitchen is one of my famous TV programs, so I've discovered (I know I'm late for few years, but this woman is real kitchen gem) Lorraine Pascale. This young British woman is a new generation of chefs, and she is focused on fresh and healthy food. I don't mean full healthy food, only avoiding the purchase of semi-finished or finished products. I've never been inclined to even buy tortillas in the store - when I make Mexican food handmade tortillas is must have. You can simply and easily make them, I will show you once! Accent is on kneading at home, with his own hands in your own kitchen (whatever may be in someone else's) :)So Lorraine was ideal inspiration for my gastro - weekend. I decided to make her dishes - grilled chicken, sweet rice with corn, exotic cabbage slaw and for dessert fabolous cake Dolce Banana. I opted for chicken sticks but I marinated chicken wings, and instead of red cabbage I put white. Also, I did not have mustard powder and has served it in corn, and dried chilli peppers. Improvisation in cooking is so important! I don't need to describe how the chicken in marinade of mix of honey and Chinese herbs was juicy, sticky and ideal barbecued - for half an hour in the oven! Salad is one harmony of fresh yogurt, neutral cabbage, onions, raisins, and chilli peppers - I don't have to describe when you get on one! It was all over for 1.5 hour. With glass of red wine - La vita è bella!
