On the eve of the holidays, portioned desserts are especially relevant. I offer you a simple recipe based on everyone’s favorite tiramisu: crispy, slightly coffee cookies and a delicate mascarpone cream with layers of tropical mango under a cap of cocoa. A treat for true gourmets!
Tender meat with the aroma of spices will not leave anyone indifferent. Portioned slicing is convenient for serving, and the cheese sauce will add extra spice to this dish.
There are not many snacks on long holidays! We will take care not only of cold cuts, but also prepare a hot dish. Mini-buns will appeal to both adults and children, they are good for a walk in the park in a duet with a thermos of tea.
Cold appetizer. Tartlets can be baked in advance, the day before serving, for example. You can complicate the task and cut out the round ones. For more guests, we increase the portion.
For lovers of cookies, the perfect combination. You go back to tasting again and again. In the original, we bake in the oven, but my wok pan did a great job on the stove.
Osso-buko or ossobuco is a very strange and extremely unusual name for our perception, because not everyone knows what exactly is hidden behind it. In fact, it’s very simple: osso-buco is a stewed beef drumstick, a traditional dish of Lombardy cuisine. It is no less readily prepared in other regions of Italy, and each of them has its own peculiarities of cooking osso-buco. The finished dish is usually served with vegetables, polenta, risotto or pasta, and it is difficult to say which option will taste better – they are all good in their own way! And our current version is osso-buco in cheese sauce with vegetables. Aromatic beef with healthy and delicious vegetables, generously flavored with a sauce made on the basis of melted cheese – an excellent option for the upcoming hot holiday feast!
Chicken is a very familiar dish, even traditional. But not a Greek-style chicken! It turns out to be especially tender, juicy and fragrant! And if you add potatoes and spices to it, and then generously flavor it with a wonderful cream made on the basis of cheese, this dish will be quite comparable to expensive restaurant delights! And such a chicken can be safely put at the head of the New Year’s table – this is really one of the best and most worthy options for hot dishes!
Chicken thigh rolls with cottage cheese and dried plums wrapped in bacon are a great hot appetizer and decoration of the festive table. They are very tasty, juicy and flavorful. Rolls can be wrapped in advance and fried just before the meal.
