Aubergine Antipasti Mozzarella

Eggplant & mozzarella

February 23rd, 2018 | starter

Eggplants are indispensable to an Italian appetizer plate. In this recipe eggplant, tomato, prosciutto and mozzarella enter a creamy liaison. Ready in 30 minutes the sunny taste makes me believe that summer is not far…

Eggplant with mozzarella

(serves 4)

2 eggplants
cut into slices (1 cm)
6 TS olive oil
sauté slices about 5 minutes, remove, drain on kitchen paper
salt, pepper
season, put on baking tray lined with baking paper
4 tomatoes
cut into slices, place one on each eggplant slice, salt and pepper
1 bunch basil
put some basil aside for the decoration, finely cut the remaining and spread on the tomatoes
100 g Parma ham
pluck in pieces, place on top
2 mozzarella cheese (125 g) each
cut into slices and place on top
bake the eggplant “tower” under the preheated grill (240 ° C) for about 8 minutes
serve garnished with remaining basil leaves

And that’s how the wife of the captain does it

For this dish, I don’t use a simple black pepper, but a special pepper mixture called “Jahreszeiten Gewürz” which means season’s seasoning of a German spice specialist called “Altes Gewürzamt”. This is my absolute favorite spice with tomatoes. It is a sort of pepper (piper nigrum) in five different processing stages. Steaks and tomatoes? Only with good salt and Jahreszeiten Gewürz, nothing else.

Ceviche at Cantina Popular

“Oh my god”, the captain said during the last shore leave in Hamburg, honoring the first bite of the Ceviche de Lubina… The CANTINA POPULAR is loud at first glance, it’s tight, it’s busy, lively and colourful. The waiters in all that hustle and bustle are cheerful and attentive. One has arrived – in the middle of South America. And Chef de cuisine Cristián Orellanus says “Bienvenidos”!

Rhubarb sour cream cake

As children, in spring we held the huge rhubarb leaves from Grandmother’s garden like elephant ears and found it hilarious. At some point, our kids had the same fun on the giant leaves with the red stalk. And so are the photos from childhood days similar from generation to generation

Asparagus salad with snow peas and orange dressing

Finally spring. Finally asparagus time. Actually, asparagus is a light spring vegetable, BUT what happens when it is eaten with hollandaise sauce, potatoes and ham? Well, my recipe for an asparagus salad with snow peas and orange dressing is much lighter.
