Soup for the cooler days – A Thai noodle version
Hey there! Winter’s coming closer here in Switzerland, the thermometer actually only just reached 6°C today, which in my opinion is way too cold. Well I just love the heat and the sun hence I spent a year of my life in Australia where I definitely got a fair share of that. …
Potato Cakes – the cheesy, lemony version

Spaghetti, the not so ordinary way – chickpeas, Swiss chard and some Moroccan flavours
Hi there! I haven’t made spaghetti in a while, have I? I think the only time I posted a spaghetti recipe on this blog was also the last time I ate spaghetti, insane, don’t you reckon? How could I have not eaten a plate of spaghetti in so long? Well as you…
The one and only real pumpkin soup
