Easy lunch or dinner
I sautéed onions, garlic, mushrooms with some fresh parsley and spinach. Ofcourse pepper and salt to taste. Added some feta cheese and parmesan leftovers so they wouldn't go to waste. All served on a hard bun with tomatoes
Indian Spiced Potatoes
Cookbook: Student Eats
Recipe: Indian Spiced Potatoes
Ingredients: sea salt * 1 tablespoon light oil * ¼ teaspoon ground cumin * ¼ teaspoon chili powder * 1 large baking potato * ½ teaspoon ground turmeric * large pinch of ground coriander * squeeze of lemon juice [portion for one]
Did it work? Yeah! A little tricky but that was due to my equipment.
Comments: Either use a very good non-stick pan or much more oil than specified in the recipe. I had neither the good equipment or the forethought to use more oil so mine came out not as nice looking or as crunchy as the picture in the book, typically, but still tasted good! I also used baby potatoes instead of one cooking potato which may have affected some things but - the baby potatoes just boiled tasted really good on their own :) possibly even boil the [baby] potatoes for like 7 minutes if you’re going to fry them in the spices for a less sort of mushy meal - i put my potatoes in the oven for about ~10 minutes to crisp them a little since my frying was a bit of a fail re: less oil than needed.
Rating: 9/10 for the taste, well worth the mild frustration! Addictive, especially as my cooking skill improves. As for the ease in making them, I’d give them like an 7/10. It’s a little more effort than say, the Klah, and the frying portion can be a little tricky and frustrating unless you use a good amount of oil/have good equipment, so there’s that to just keep in your mind. For tidy-up afterwards: 9/10. I think I had like, 4 dirty crockery total and i just stuck it in the dishwasher so.

I bought a one-pot student cook book when I started uni, and it’s taken me 5 months to actually open it! But i’ve fallen in love with this super easy chicken broth 💛
Cookbook: Student Eats
Ingredients: sliced bread - milk - cheese - salt & pepper - Worcester sauce - English mustard powder
Did it work? Yes! And it looked fantastic too.
Final Comments: This was really quick and easy to make, with clear instructions - a pretty perfect brunch/lunch meal, which is what I had it for. The bread comes out so crunchy underneath the cheese, and the addition of the worcester sauce and mustard powder means it has more of a kick than your run-of-the-mill cheese toastie. 10/10 will definitely make again.

Recipe: Good Green Couscous
Ingredients: extra virgin olive oil * salt and pepper * 125g couscous * ¼ cucumber, peeled and cubed finely * 4 spring onions, trimmed and sliced * 2 large handfuls of sugar snap peas, sliced * a large handful of finely chopped coriander * juice of ½ lemon
Did it work? Oh, extremely well.
Final comments: I am so impressed by this recipe oh my god. Technically it made enough of this good green couscous to feed two people but it was genuinely so fucking good that I shovelled every last crumb of couscous into my mouth like some sort of fervent animal. From the walk up to my local Lidl for a cucumber to the awe of watching my couscous absorb the water like my cactus’ after I remember to water them, every part of this recipe scratched some sort of primal itch in my brain. The ease and simplicity it took to pull together this utter godlike creation feels almost criminal in the aftermath. I am pulling on every last ounce of english purple prose I’m capable of just to do this ambrosia-on-earth justice, and still falling short. 10/10 go eat this.
