When you mention the word "spinach" it can remove the happy smile from many a face. But it can taste really great if you cook it the right way. Like in this recipe where I put it inside an omelette. This is a dish that I eat for breakfast. It satiates for a long time. Though I am sure that the big piece of fish helped somewhat too.

If you premix those two trinities then it becomes very easy to make Asian cooking.

Video Recipe - One of the best snacks you can, well snack on, is also one of the easiest to make yourself. If you make them yourself, they are also much better than the ones you buy pre-popped.

Maybe they are even 3.1415 times better !? So make them yourself ... right? Please!

Video Recipe - Rösti are made with cooked potatoes, so I use it often as "leftovers" instead of the typical fried potatoes, hash and so on.

Video Recipe - Everybody loves french fries, and I'm certainly no exception. This is probably one of the recipes I have spent the most time on perfecting through my cooking career.

In short, I have tried all the methods I've read about. Along the way I learned a lot about what is important for good fries and what is not. The four necessary main points I have written into my "kvalifood law of fries" which is in the notes of this recipe. but most importantly, I have developed a french fries recipe that suits my taste 100% and works every time. Yielding the best and most crisp fries at all possible.
