Bitterballen...is complicated

Not as easy as it seems to make and bake bitterballen. This typical Dutch fried ball is filled with a meat stew. I followed a recipe on Bitterballen.net (in dutch) and was a lot of work, but not that complicated. First you make a bouillon with beef. That is not hard, but just takes a couple of hours to cook. Take out the meat and the bouillon, to make the stew. Well problem nr. 1 was that my stew was to wet. So I thickened it up with flour and butter and some gelantine. I thought it was good, so I let it cool down in the fridge. The next day I made small pingpong sized balls and put breadcrumbs on. Ready to fry! So it turned out that the stew was still to wet, the crust was not thick enough, which resulted in balls with no filling, a lot of floating stew in the oil and no appetizers for diner. But I will try again soon! Learning curve for next time: dry stew, just 2 minutes to fry and 2 layers of breadcrumbs. But they looked really good!

Original Dutch “stampot with hachee”

First the weather here: rainy and cold (4˚ Celcius/40˚ Fahrenheit), and that calls for a winter meal! 

I made Stampot with Hachee today. First the Stampot: That is an easy one: You need Potato’s (about 2 pounds), carrots, cut up in small pieces (about 1,5 lbs) and unions, also cut up and about 1,5 lbs. Take a large pan, put the potatoes, unions and carrots in. Then add water until everything is covered in it. Add a bouillon tablet and let it boil for about 30 minutes. Then just add pepper and salt, mash (stamp) it all up and you are ready to go. To make it more creamy you can add a half cup of milk or butter while mashing.

Then the Hachee. I had about 2 lbs of Stew meet. I baked that in a pan, after seasoning it with salt and pepper. In another pan you will warm up a bit of butter and oil and put in 2 unions (chopped) and 3 garlic pieces (chopped). After simmering for 5 minutes, add the following: 1 can of diced tomatoes, a table spoon of ketchup, 1 cup of broth (warm), 1 glass of red wine, 2 table spoons of brown sugar, 2 table spoons of flower, 3 bay leaves, 5 cloves and pepper & salt. Leave this simmering for about 15 minutes and then add the slightly baked stew meat. Leave this simmering for about 4 hrs. It is served separate from each other, so you can create your own mix. Some apple sauce will do the finishing touch!

And that is it for today. Bon appetite!

Something easy and healthy for the kids.

When you only have 15 minutes to prepare a health meal.

I always have in my fridge eggs, broccoli, cubed ham and cream. Just because I can make a quick and healthy meal with it. And I use the same ingredients for a quiche, so I can choose what I will make. For the quiche you also need cheese and puff pasty sheets. 

There is a lot going on at the same time, but that is why it is so fast! 

So this is what you do: cook the broccoli together with 3 eggs. They need about the same time to cook. And of course you need to cook pasta (spaghetti, penne, farfelle).  A little bit later you can add a stir pan stir for the diced ham. 

You could add a small chopped up union or leeks to get more taste, but my kids like it plain. Wenn the broccoli is ready, chop it up. You do the same with eggs, peel them and chop them up into little pieces. Add that to the stir fried diced ham and just add cream. Do not forget the pepper and salt!  

You can add the pasta to the sauce or serve it separate. My kids love it, with or without extra cheese on top. Quick and easy and healthy!

Tompoezen | Tomcats

Nou, dat klonk gezellig, tompoezen maken op Koningsdag. Dat doe ik wel even, hoe moeilijk kan het zijn, beetje deeg voor de bodem en een goede vulling. Glazuur erop en klaar. Niet dus.... De vulling is te dun, de koek is niet helemaal zoals het hoort en alles zakt in elkaar. Ik heb nog tot 27 april 2019 om te oefenen.

Well, it sounded “gezellig” to make orange cookies called Tompoezen on Kingsday. Piece of cake, so I thought. How hard an it be: you need cookies, filling and glace. Not... It all collapized putting it together. I have to practice, I have untlli Kingsday 2019. The boys loved it as chips.... and eat it all.
