Ireland – Irish Chicken Stew
Ireland’s cuisine seems to be such a good match for us, since on top of the soda bread we found more highly interesting things, such as Irish Chicken and Dumplings, recipe to be found on Allrecipes again. There original recipe calls for a baking mix to make the dumplings, since we had not idea what that mix was and probably only is available in the US anyway, we decided to scrap the dumplings, since the … Read entire article »

Austria – Wiener Schnitzel
To conclude our first year of “Around the World in 12 Dishes”, we are traveling to Austria, a country very close to my heart, since I grew up right on the border to it, so this feels a bit like a quick trip home. At the same time it obviously is also the country on our travels that I feel the most comfortable with, since I’ve been to it countless times (that you have to … Read entire article »

Chicken stew
(Made Dec. 24th, 2012) This is a recipe I have adapted from my home economics class back in school (won’t tell you what year that was, lol) , theirs was rather greasy and complicated to do, so I simplified it. While the in laws were visiting they had asked if I could make it, since I used to make it over in Germany too. We did most prep while Nico was napping so it would … Read entire article »

Morocco – Marrakech Tagine
Researching Moroccan dishes, most of the ones that were interesting, had one thing in common – lots of different spices that we do not normally have in our pantry, a conundrum we had first faced with India and there we had taken the shortcut of a ready-made sauce. So the thought entered our mind to do the unthinkable again and do the same for Morocco, especially since we were in the middle of Christmas preparations … Read entire article »

Brazil – Brazilian Curry Chicken
One of the biggest challenges when cooking (or baking) with children is to find something that they will at least try. Of late we haven’t been very lucky with Nico, so when scouting around for Brazilian dishes, we were trying to check into a few ingredients that he likes, starting with his favourite meat: chicken. Valerie then came across something called “Brazilian Curry Chicken” on the site of US grocery chain Publix and it looked and … Read entire article »

French Polynesia – Lime chicken
Exotic French Polynesia – not much food comes to mind other than fish, vanilla and coconut. Now I am sure that you can somehow whip up a recipe out of that, but not sure how good of an idea it would be. So I went out and researched and came up with a huge list of approximately 8 dishes total and somehow all of them seem to be containing coconut – except for one: Lime … Read entire article »

Japan – Teriyaki Chicken
Since India for some reason didn’t quite work out for us the way we had hoped it would, we figured we’d continue our journey to our next destination, Japan, early in order to have everything ready and done and whatnot – just to arrive a week late. We must have taken a wrong turn somewhere in Vietnam or China, because I don’t think that the Eiffel Tower is on the way, no? Anyways, the first thing … Read entire article »

India – Murg Makhani (Butter Chicken)
Murg Makhani (Butter Chicken) India is a country that is known for hot dishes, for very complex spice mixtures and for some palates odd ingredients. When doing the research on the Indian cuisine, I came across many dishes that were too hot for Nico to even try or had ingredients that none of us really were to keen on, so the choice fell on Murg Makhani, better known as Butter Chicken. Checking out several recipes, they all … Read entire article »

United Kingdom – Sunday roast dinner
Sunday roast As we were doing a little research on which dishes the UK has to offer, we wanted to see, if we could find something that would not just be British, but also have the potential for Nico to eat, since Toddlerland’s menu is not as diverse as one would hope. So after Valerie had chatted with a few ladies across the “pond” she found out that the Sunday roast is a big favourite in … Read entire article »
