Is mid day shaorma 🥙 a good idea? Did a quick fresh shaorma for lunch (quick in relative terms, I was ill prepared so the prep took ages). Chicken tights, in the pan with a bit of oil, paprika and pepper. Light onion, tomato and cucumber salad. A simple yogurt and garlic sauce. And some quick made fries by cutting them nice and thin.

A light afternoon dish.

Since it’s always tricky to find free time with a toddler I did the usual cheat bought the pasta, and used frozen spinach. For what it’s worth they are “bio”.

Slow cooked beef with sauteed green beans.

Slow cooked beef with sauteed green beans. A cheap cut is always good when slow cooked, together with some light seasoning with paprika, salt and pepper, and with leek, garlic and carrots for some extra flavor. I kept it in the oven for about 6 hours at 140 degrees on ventilation only. The green beans were sauteed with lots of garlic and a touch of butter at the end.

Lazy Sunday means a slow cooked pork in the oven

Lazy Sunday means a slow cooked pork in the oven for 6 hours :P. Nothing fancy on the seasoning, just some rosemary and paprika (normal and smoked) with some onions, carrots and red bell pepper. I was out of garlic, so no tzatziki for the dressing, just some oven roasted potatoes with the same seasoning.
