Baked Bell Peppers

These work well as a little heavier starter or as part of a buffet. The filling can be infinitely varied with what you have or like. This a very simple variation of it.


4 bell peppers
600g minced meat (any type)
1 yellow onion, chopped
1 red chili, chopped
2dl grated cheese


Cut the top of the peppers so you get a lid and clean them out so you don't have any seeds left.

Fry the meat together with the onion and chili.

Fill the peppers with the meat mixture and sprinkle the cheese on top.

Bake in the oven at 175ºC for about 20min until the cheese is nice and golden brown.

Serve on their own or with a little bit of rice or pasta.


Enjoy!

Crabfish Suprise

A nice starter or as hors d'oeuvres. The only thing that can be tricky to get are ready made croustades or similar small savory pastries that are hard shelled and will not absorb anything.


1 package frozen crab sticks/surimi sticks (ca. 250g)
1 small yellow onion
1dl crème fraiche or sour cream
1 1/2tbl chili sauce
1tsp Worcester sauce
1/2tsp soy
1tsp crushed pink pepper (rosépeppar to the swedes)
ca. 6 small hard pastries that are easily filled and easily holdable


Thaw and cut the crab sticks into smaller pieces, a little thinner than cubes works well.

Peel the onion and finely chop it.

Fry the onion in a little butter until it has gone mostly transparent but not brown.

Mix the crab sticks with the rest of the ingredients so that everything is evenly coated.

Fill the pastry shells/croustades and then heat them at full power in the microwave for 1-2min.

Let them rest for a about a min then serve.


Enjoy!

Chili And Garlic Shrimp

I had a bag of frozen shrimp in the freezer and I wanted to do something with them, so I checked what else i had and this is what I came up with.

400g peeled shrimp
1-2 red chili
6-8 garlic cloves
1/2dl oil (olive oil or vegetable oil)
1tsb mushroom soy
parsley to taste

Deseed the chili and cut it into thin slices.

Peel and slice the garlic.

Fry the chili and garlic in the oil for about 5 min.

Add the shrimp and fry them briefly.

Stir in the soy and parsley.

Serve with rice or noodles.


Enjoy!
