Christmas Recipe: Brussels Sprouts with potatoes and pomegranate

Good day everyone! And Merry (anticipated) Christmas! I didn’t want to en 2024 without publishing a Christmas recipe here in the blog. So I thought to myself, what ingredients are the most “christmastic”? Brussels sprouts and potatoes had to be in here. Also, I always associate pomegranate to Christmas season. It’s not my first recipe with this ingredient, as you can see. I’m glad I did this recipe, not only because it tastes delicious but also as a reminder of…

Mulled Cider: Christmas drink with a festive flavour

It’s almost Xmas Eve! Whaaaat? A year has happened since last Christmas and I feel like it’s been four years at least.

Pear and Orange Trifle with Christmas spices

I made a pear trifle with Christmas spices and candied fruit. The house still smells delicious from making the candied fruit. If you have never done it…do yourself a favour and try. The flavour is amazing, but the smell is incredible. I couldn’t make my own sponge because my…

Christmas Chicken à l’orange in a tiny oven

Christmas Chicken à l’orange in a tiny oven

I’ve decided there’s no Christmas unless there’s a turkey on the table. I mean, I’ve been doing that for a long time now. The thing is…I don’t have a proper oven (yet). I have a new kitchen and I still have to buy an oven, but meanwhile I’m still using my good old small oven. Why haven’t I bought a bigger oven yet? I haven’t found one that I really liked. If you have any suggestions, please let me know,…
