I can rarely resist a really good salsa, and this is one of the best recipes I’ve come across. It goes with almost anything, and keeps for a few days in the fridge.

Ingredients:

  • 5–6 large, ripe, juicy tomatoes. Remove seeds and juice, and chop into small pieces.

  • 1/2 large red onion, finely chopped.

  • 1 green jalapeño. Remove seeds and chop finely.

  • A handful of chopped fresh coriander.

  • At least 2 cloves of garlic, pressed.

  • Juice of 2 limes. Salt and pepper.

Method:

Mix all ingredients in a bowl. Squeeze lime over, and season to taste with salt. Enjoy!

This recipe was found on vegetarbloggen.no. It is a very tasty thai style dish that we usually make vegan, but feel free to add chicken or pork if that is more to your liking.

Cooking time is about 15 minutes, if you have the ingredients prepared.

Ingredients:

1 shallot · 1 Chinese garlic · 1 red bell pepper · 0.5 squash · about 10 cherry tomatoes · 1 broccoli · oil for cooking · 2 tbs red curry paste · 1 box of chopped tomatoes · 2 tbs peanut butter · 5 dl vegetable stock · 1 box of coconut milk · 200 gr pasta (we used spaghetti) · 1/2 lemon

Steps:

Finely chop shallots and garlic. Cut paprika and squash into cubes. Tomatoes are cut in two, and broccoli divided into smaller pieces.

Heat the oil to medium/high heat in a pan. Add shallots, garlic and curry paste, and let it simmer for a few minutes. Add squash and paprika. Give them another minute.

Add fresh and tinned tomatoes. Mix peanut butter into the vegetable stock, and add to the pan along with the coconut milk. Let it come to a boil, then add the pasta.

Boil until the pasta is al dente. This will take about 10 minutes. Add broccoli when there are about 3 minutes left.

Add salt, pepper and lemon juice for taste, and serve hot.

Pickled onions are a treat that can be added to many dishes to add an extra piece of flavour. They are really easy to make, and last for days and weeks in the refridgerator.

Ingredients:

  • 2 red onions

  • 1/2 dl apple cider vinegar

  • 1 tbs cane sugar

  • 1/2 ts salt

Steps:

Add everything but the onions to a pot. When it boils, add the sliced onions and stir. Add the lid, turn off the heat and let it stand until cold.

I always thought quesadillas needed some kind of meat to be interesting. That was until I tried this.

Ingredients:

  • 1 onion, chopped

  • 1 chinese garlic, finely chopped

  • 1 red or yellow paprika, chopped

  • 2 carrots, grated

  • 1 can (400gr) black or brown beans

  • 1 ts tomato purée

  • 1 ts cumin

  • 1 ts paprika

  • 1/2 ts smoked paprika

  • 2 ts oregano

  • 1 ts sugar

  • 1 can (400gr) chopped tomatoes

  • salt and pepper

  • 8 large corn tortillas

  • 150 gr grated cheese

And for the accompanying guacamole:

  • 2 large, ripe avocadoes

  • 2 cloves of garlic

  • salt and pepper

  • 1 lime, the juice

  • 1 handful of fresh coriander

Steps:

Start with a medium pan on medium heat, and add onions and garlic. Let them simmer until soft. Add paprika and carrots. Give them a few minutes, then add beans, tomato purée and spices. Wait a minute or two, then add the chopped tomatoes.

The bean stew can now simmer for 5-10 minutes while you prepare the guacamole.

Prepare the quesadillas by putting an even spread of bean stew on the tortilla, then cheese, then another tortilla on top. I usually cover the top tortilla with a sprinkle of olive oil, for taste, and to keep it from drying.

Bake in oven (200 degrees) until the cheese has melted, and serve immediately with guacamole, salsa and a green salad.

This is a really tasty version of hummus. I originally found this in an old recipe book by Jamie Oliver, and I’ve made this many many times. I’ve made a couple of small changes to the original recipe along the way, and here it is:

Ingredients:

  • 400 gr chickpeas

  • 1/2 ts cumin

  • 1 clove garlic

  • 1 small dried chili

  • The juice from 1 lemon

  • Olive oil

  • Salt and pepper

  • 1 cm fresh turmeric

Steps:

Rinse the chickpeas, and put them in a food processor or blender container along with the rest of the ingredients. Blend until smooth. Make sure there are no large chili or turmeric pieces floating around.

Use as spreading on a piece of bread, or any other way you would use hummus.
