<div style="text-align: center;">
**********</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
for the crumb:</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
100 g butter</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
1 dl sugar</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
2 dl flour</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
**********</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
for the vanilla custard:</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
3 dl milk</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
1 egg</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
2 tbsp sugar</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
1,5 tbsp corn starch</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
vanilla sugar to your liking</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Heat your oven to 200 degrees C.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
In a large bowl, mix together soft butter and sugar. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Add rest of the ingredients and mix until smooth. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Grease a large (30 cm) pie dish with butter and spread the dough on it evenly. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Add an even layer of blueberries, amount depending on your taste (more blueberries, more moisture).</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Prepare the crumb by mixing all its ingredients in a bowl by picking & crumbling with your </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
For the vanilla custard, in a kettle mix together milk, egg, sugar and sieved corn starch. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Heat up on medium heat while constantly whisking. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Be careful not to boil, as the egg will cook and you will have clumps. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
In 5-10 minutes the custard should thicken. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Remove from heat when consistency is to your liking, let cool a bit and add vanilla sugar. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Cool to room temperature. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Best, if served immediately!</div>

It's exactly the pattern you've been looking for and exactly in the right colours. And it cost 69 euros only. Now all that needs to be done is to take down a few walls and lay some floor tiles.<br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
<i>1 medium sized onion</i></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<i>2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil</i></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<i>1 tbsp butter </i></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<i>1 can of tomato pulp</i></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<i>beef stock cube</i></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<i>salt, black pepper</i></div>

This recipe makes enough for three (the kid eats as much as I do) and you'll probably have enough left overs to make a small lunch salad the following day.<br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
500 g chicken fillets</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
2 dl flour</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
2 eggs</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
2 dl coconut flakes</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
paprika</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
garlic powder</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Heat the oven to 200 C degrees.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Cut the chicken fillets into 1 cm thick strips. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Place flour, paprika and garlic powder into a bowl and mix. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Break eggs into another bowl and whisk to mix the yolk and the white.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Place coconut flakes into a third bowl.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
One by one, dip the chicken strips into the flour & spice mix, then to eggs and then to coconut flakes. In each bowl, make sure that the chicken gets completely covered. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Place the strips then on a baking tray lined with baking paper. Cook in the oven's middle rack until coconut has turned golden and crispy (approx. 15 minutes).</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Serve with rice and veggies.</div>

I often get asked if I make simpler versions of these dishes for the kid. I don't. This particular recipe would go down well with any kid, I'd imagine, but whatever I cook, the kid eats the same as we do. Only he eats it from an Angry Birds plate.</div>

<span id="goog_1759466514"></span><span id="goog_1759466515"></span>I hate mess, so for me it's an effort. To keep myself from telling him what to do or what not to do, not to make mess, to be careful, and so on. And yes, there's flour EVERYWHERE, but if I focus on the kid's happy face, it's okay. And actually, he's pretty careful and precise in his actions.<br />

I've decided that Saturday's are pizza days. After a working day I just don't have the energy for cooking anything fancy but still, it's weekend, so I'd like to put something nice and tasty on the table. I just need to come up with new recipes as in my pizza the only thing that's ever different is whether I top it with parmesan or mozzarella.<br />

So your busy-but-poor-working-mum-recipe is as follows:<br />
<br />
In a cast iron kettle, sear 400 g of minced beef.<br />
Add 2 dl of canned corn and 2 dl of canned kidney beans (remember to rinse well!).<br />
Add 1 can of tomato puré and 1 dl of beef broth.<br />
Season to your liking with paprika, chili, garlic powder and taco seasoning.<br />
Mix well and let simmer on low temperature, under a lid for about 30 minutes.<br />
Serve with boiled rice and top with corn kernels and avocado cubes.<br />
<br />

Sunday dinner is one of the things that I want to be special. Sometimes it means we eat take-away on the sofa while watching sports. Usually, however, it means I cook something that takes a bit more time and effort - and tastes a bit better too.<br />

Sunday dinner, though, is never anything fancy with white linen on the table. Because what I most want the kid to remember, is that Sundays were always fun days.<br />

I guess you could say it's a pie. A puff pastry pie filled with minced beef. The original, as I recall, had beef, onions and boiled egg in it. I added some kale too.<br />

Puff pastry dough is store bought. You need 500 g of it. Let the frozen pastry sheets melt in room temperature for about 30 minutes and then roll them into two bigger sheets. If you're a superhuman, make your own dough.<br />

FILLING: <br />
Sear the minced beef (400 g), chopped onion (1 medium sized) and minced garlic (2 gloves). Season to your liking - I used salt, black pepper and paprika. Add shredded kale and cook for a few minutes.<br />
Mash two hard boiled eggs with a fork. In a bowl, mix together the eggs and the beef, onion & kale mixture. Check the seasoning. At this point, I added some sweet chili sauce.<br />
<br />
Lay the other sheet of dough on a baking tray lined with baking paper. Spread the filling evenly on top and cover with the remaning dough. Pinch the edges so that the sheets stick together.<br />
<br />
Bake in 175 C degrees oven until golden (35-45 minutes).<br />

On my day off this week, I took on a project that at least created an illusion of me doing nothing. I have a huge pile of old magazines that all contain one or more interesting recipes. So, a cup of coffee, a pile of magazines and a comfy position. Almost a day off.<br />

You see, I have tried, for example, chickpea burgers which did NOT taste good. They were, in fact, terrible and I have been banned from ever making them again. EVER.<br />

But these turned out quite nice! I used dried chickpeas; rinse them, soak them overnight and pat them dry. Place in a bowl, add two tbsps of canola oil, three tbsps taco seasoning mix and mix well. Spread onto a baking tray and toast in a 150 C degrees oven for 35 to 40 minutes.<br />

The room is a combination of old and new. IKEA Hemnes daybed was purchased new, as well as the rug and all the fabrics for the cushions. The stool in the above picture belonged to my grandma; it's not very neat but I like it the way it is, a bit rugged.<br />
