KW: Cheesy Veggie Pancakes

Yesterday and today had been so warm, I welcomed the weather with open arms! I made this when it was cold, windy and rainy the days before when I wanted something a little heavier.

This is the first time I've tried this particular recipe from the cookbook Kuchnia Wegetariańska. I can't say it's the best recipe I've tried from the cookbook, but it was pretty good and made a good amount - it kept me well fed for three days! It's also a pretty cheap recipe, so it suited me well as a student with limited budget. I didn't end up using all the pancakes made out of this recipe for this recipe. I had some with icing sugar sprinkled on top and it brought me back to my childhood. My grandmother used to serve pancakes this way for my siblings and I because we used to live with her often as my parents were quite busy back then. Can't wait for summer break to come so I get to go home! Looking forward to July :)

Paella with cashew nuts

I haven’t blogged in a long time, and this is really the first time I’m blogging since I left my adolescence behind. Those years are really not THAT far back – because I don’t think I am that particularly old, still but definitely not as young as I’d like to be. But I suppose it’s a common dilemma that us in the 20s suffer from :P
I figured I’ll just start blogging as a hobby again, and I also thought it might help my keeping track of recipes that I tried and experimented with.

The first recipe I’m putting up is from a small cookbook I randomly found in a drugstore – which I thought was kind of strange but it was very cheap (10zl, which is around 2.50€) so I immediately bought it. Here’s the catch though: the cookbook is in a language I'm not very fluent at. Fortunately though, I managed to get by understanding the instructions even without google translating it! Ha, I'm ashamed to say that I might actually be somewhat proud of this. Sad to say that does not translate to real life usage lol ):

I suppose this was originally in English, because the author's name is Jenny Stacey.

This paella was the first recipe I have ever tried from the cookbook, and I am very happy to say that it turned out really good and delicious. Since then I have looked forward to trying other recipes from the book.
