I like a late but hearty breakfast on weekends. Shakshuka is one option, frittata is another. With still lot’s of greens and roots from the garden, here it’s accompanied by a salad (greens, carrot, turnip, cucumber, pomegranate). For the dressing I used my homemade apple/pear-vinegar, mustard seeds, lemon juice, olive oil, honey and salt. For […]

Burrito – Mix and Match
Burrito is one of our family favourites. Yes, it takes some preparation and some ingredients that you probably don’t have on stock. we always keep some tortillas in the freezer and have canned beans and corn, as well as pickled jalapenos in the storage. additionally you will need to prepare guacamole, salsa and spiced rice. […]

Mangold/ Chard
one of the most successful and prettiest plants in our allotment is the rainbow chard. It keeps on growing and we seriously cannot keep up with it. We made filled chard leaves with rice and minced lamb meat (maybe Yosef can write down the recipe at some point). we also used it for mulch, which […]

Portulak / Purslane
When we started our garden in April, we planted summer purslane. That was a really stupid move as we were soon to find out. It grew nicely with thick yellowish leaves. At the same time, every inch of earth in our garden covered itself with it’s wild sister, wild purslane. Smaller and greener leaves with […]
Tender cabbage recipe
Yosef will be responsible for the recipe itself. It takes quite a while in the oven but is a tasty and different take on this plant. As for white cabbage itself, we grew some and had a huge harvest. Pro tip: the heads re-grow if you cut them early in the season and leave outer […]
