Dead easy currant and pistachio sorbet

Lire la recette en français ...

This dead easy sorbet was made with a leftover of currant from my mother-in-law. I added a pinch of pistachio butter because 1. a small amount of good pistachio butter gives you a twist to almost anything 2. it also modified the texture of the sorbet, making it looking like an ice-cream - really ! So give a try to this sorbet, you'll love it and regret to have no more leftover !

Chocolate, hazelnut and zucchini mousse

Version française ...

It's summer time when :

a. your garden is full of beautiful tiny zucchini.

b. your neighbour/cousin/father-in-law gives you full baskets of zucchini twice a week.

c. you go to a farm to pick up fruits and vegetables and you can't stop picking up. You have too much zucchini.

d. your family is tired of eating zucchini gratin.

Whatever is your answer, we've never enough recipes with zucchini, right ? I made this mousse for a all-zucchini meal, it is light, tasty, and I promise nobody will figure out your secret ingredient !

Honey-cashew tofu and quick fried sucrine lettuce

Lire en français ...

I suddenly felt like eating a dish with marinated tofu and lettuce sucrine. Yes, I've sometimes weird envy :-) Fortunately, I remembered of a recipe seen somewhere, and my fridge contained a wild rice leftover.

The tofu is soaked in a classic marinade and fried until gold and crispy. You can use the same pan to fry the sucrine lettuce on one side for a few minutes, then drizzle with a mix of soya sauce and honey. It becomes soft and hot, a real surprise for me, great eater of cold and crispy salad !

Stuffed vegetables # Rice, lentils and mushrooms

Version française ...

You can do anything with stuffed vegetables : they're easy to cook, you can use any leftover, you can prepare them a day or two ahead and they can stand reheating. And if you don't mind eating them cold, they can go outside for picnic ! In a word, a very versatile and convenient dish.

I wanted a veggie version from the stuffed vegetables with meat I used to eat when I was young. I also wanted a complete dish (I'm lazy ...) : cereal, legumes and mushrooms for moisture, that's it ! Secotin told me something like "That thing is not so bad ...". Thing yourself !

Strawberry liar cheesecake

Version française par ici ...

I keep on having fun with cheesecake without cheese and without cake ... and incidentally without sugar !

I wanted to pick up my stawberries in a field close to my place. Because the way I like strawberries the most is just … nature ! So they have to be per-fect ! But those we had last thursday were disappointing and insipid, we need more sun people !!! So I decided to buy some this morning to a thief greengrocer and here are two versions of the strawberry liar cheesecake !
