Movie suggestion

Some of you asked for film recommendations which seems to be a great idea. This blog turned out to be mainly about cooking but it really wasn't the plan. Somehow that's what we love doing in our spare time...and that's the result. We will try to entertain you with other kinds of posts  if only we find something worth sharing. To begin with but not to forget abut cooking, I would like to recommend you a film with my all time favourite actress Meryl Streep. "Julie and Julia" is a story of a culinary expert Julia Child and a young New Yorker Julie Powell, who aspires to cook all 524 recipes in Child's cookbook in 365 days, a challenge she described on her popular blog that would make her a published author.
This mouth-watering story brings a smile on your face and makes you want to cook. I don't even have to mention that the outstanding talent of Meryl Streep makes this film even better. See for yourself.

PS: One of the comments on the video below read that Meryl Streep could easily play Batman if only she wanted. I really think she is one of the best actresses ever!


Extremely easy pea soup


After the anniversary weekend when we ate tons of calories we needed a light recipe that required less than 15 minutes to prepare. And then I remembered one of Nigella Lawson's recipes for summer soups. The delicious pea soup. All you need is:

500gr peas
1 mozzarella ball
1 stock cube
onion
750ml water
  
Instructions
  1. Cook the frozen peas and onion in water with stock cube until tender.
  2. Remove the onion.
  3. Chop up mozzarella and put it in the blender with peas and their liquid.
    Press the soup through a sieve to make it more velvety.
    Serve with a toast.
