A homemade dinner is not only another meal, but also a special event in every family or group of friends. It can be given a special atmosphere and mood if you choose the right dishes for cooking and approach the cooking process with soul and maximum diligence.
There are many options for evening meals, but it is worth considering what exactly the upcoming evening will be.
For a quiet, family, evening rest, more classic, traditional recipes are suitable. The menu must necessarily include hot. Meat or fish are also needed to prepare a full meal. You can make a casserole of potatoes with minced meat, lasagna or chicken in the original sauce and add a salad with a lot of greens in it – so it will be much more useful.
For a romantic evening organized for a private conversation and confessions, light but memorable dishes are suitable. Rabbit meat stewed with vegetables or vegetable roll with combinations of fillings will be an excellent solution. Salads with seafood and caviar, a variety of desserts: tiramisu, strudel or sponge cake are well suited.
For a diet dinner, you can choose recipes that contain the whole complex of vitamins and at the same time have excellent taste properties. Fish or poultry is steamed or in a slow cooker with the addition of a large number of vegetables, dessert is formed from low-calorie fruits.
If a holiday is expected, the variety of ideas is practically unlimited, but an individual approach and competent execution are needed. Salads can be offered any, with the participation of hearty ingredients. For the main serving, baked stuffed poultry, fish with sour cream sauce or meat with cheese will be good.
My daughter brought me various gastronomic gifts from Madrid. Among them there is such a pasta “Tallarini”. I want to cook them in a new (for me) saffron sauce. I remember as a child we called these autumn flowers “Marigolds”. It turned out that Imeretian saffron is prepared from them. That’s why I called the sauce saffron. Come in! It turned out to be a very tasty, velvety-tender and fragrant sauce! I think this sauce can be made in the post, replacing cream cheese and similar vegetable products.
A hearty dinner dish for the whole family. We are always happy to see sausages or something smoked on the table. Here I liked the use of cabbage, which, oddly enough, took first place among my men. It is convenient to cook in the manner of “pots”: fell asleep and wait for cooking! Replaced the onion with leek.
Polenta is a dish of Italian cuisine. Simply put, it is corn porridge. Polenta was prepared in different ways: soft and hard, baked, cut into pieces and fried. The dish eventually turned into a gourmet dish and is included in the menu of many restaurants. Today I made a portion of polenta with two fillings and two types of cheese.
