Spaghetti - quite addictive

February 18th, 2018 | main dishes

Italians probably will tear their hair about my recipe for spaghetti muffins. I have the heart to publish it anyway. There are at least seven good reasons for it:

Spaghetti - quite addictive

Our spaghetti cupcakes are

  • very easy to prepare
  • done at lightning speed
  • super tasty
  • ideal as a lunch-time snack
  • taste hot and cold
  • great on a buffet or for a picnic
  • the big hit with children

With this post I take part in the blogparade “Unkompliziert und geschmackvoll” of “Optic Food”.

Spaghetti cupcakes

(yields 12 pieces)

100 g of bacon, diced
1 TS olive oil
fry the bacon and drain on paper towels, skim the fat, if too much

200 ml cream

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

With a salad of tomato, Burrata [Italian creamy cheese], pesto and some roasted pine nuts the small compact pasta packages are a nice main dish.

Here you can read the captain’s shore leave recommendation: “Three walks in Madeira”

Tonka bean mousse with blood orange ragout

In five days is Valentine’s Day! Unfortunately, my dearest captain is not ashore. But if he were there, I would spoil him with this dessert: It comes along in three layers: a blood orange ragout, seasoned with grenadine, a quark yoghurt mousse flavored with tonka beans, and topped with deep-fried wonton strips and salted caramel. A dessert that sparkles in your mouth, and certainly enchants your sweetheart!

Venison steak with chilli and blackberry sauce
