Fresh seasonal recipes and more
How to rent a neighbourhood garden in The Hague to grown your own vegetables.
Great and fun outdoor activity for everyone.
Roasted vegetable salad that you can prepare tonight for tomorrow´s lunch. Red pepper, aubergine, onion and garlic, roasted in the oven and with Dutch smoked mackerel. A great combination for a different fresh salad.
I used smoked mackerel but you can use, tuna, bonito, anchovies or just skip the fish and keep it 100% vegan. All of them are great combinations.
Anchovies Marinated in Vinegar – boquerones en vinagre – are one of the most traditional Spanish recipes. Soft fresh anchovies `cooked´ in vinegar with garlic flavour. Get a large piece of bread as you will need it.
A great mix between lemongrass, lime and passion fruit. Fresh and super easy to make keep hydrated during the summer.
The recipe I am sharing today is the basic recipe that I used when I started using the slow cooker, no special sauce or anything, just a whole chicken and few ingredients, easy and amazingly tender.
Tomato salad with an amazing Italian burrata, extra virgin olive oil, salt and pepper. Simple and delicious.
Ratatouille rose, made with seasonal vegetables to create a rose shape dish. A great idea for a started or as a side dish for a main dish to surprise your guest.

Bonito and piquillo bites, using great quality bonito and piquillo paprika. Easy and quick way to create delicious starters.
I am passionate about cooking, markets and urban gardens. Always looking for fresh seasonal ingredients at local markets to create new recipes. I hope this place inspires you to cook something new. Enjoy it!
