This recipe was found on Familie Journal 

Serves 2-3

400 g pork tenderloin
2 tbsp EVOO
Salt and pepper
1 small bundle parsley
35 g hazelnuts
1 cm fresh horseradish

Salad:
50 g fresh spinach
1 head little gem lettuce
1/4 head spring cabbage
Salt and pepper
1 tbsp white wine vinegar
2 tbsp EVOO
Bit of sugar

Carrot Tart:
5 carrots
1 shallot
10 g butter
1 tbsp EVOO
1 tbsp cider vinegar
Salt and pepper
2 sheets puff pastry, thawed
100 g feta cheese
1 lemon
1/2 bundle broad-leaf parsley
50 g walnuts

 

Make the pork tenderloin:
Rub the tenderloin with oil, salt, and pepper. Brown in a warm pan for 2 minutes on each side. Rinse the parsley and chop it. Roughly chop the hazelnuts. Peel and finely grate the horseradish. Blend parsley, nuts, and horseradish with the rest of the oil; season with salt and pepper. Place half of the mixture on a sheet of aluminium foil and place the tenderloin atop. Place the rest of the parsley blend atop the tenderloin and cover with another sheet of foil. Cook the tenderloin in the oven at 200 C for 35 minutes.

Make the salad:
Rinse the spinach and lettuce. Let the spinach drip dry and pluck the lettuce into small pieces. Cut up the cabbage very finely. Blend salt, pepper, vinegar, oil, and sugar together and toss the spinach, cabbage, and lettuce in the dressing.

Make the carrot tart:
Wash the carrots and split them lengthwise. Cut the shallot into wedges. Heat up a small pan with oil and butter. Place the carrots and shallot in and cook for 2 minutes. Add honey and cider vinegar and let it caramelize a bit. Turn the heat off after 2 minutes; add salt and pepper. Place the puff pastry beside each other and press them together well. Place the pastry over the pan, seal well, and trim any excess dough off. Place the pan in the oven for 15 minutes, or until the pastry is golden (it’s done at the same temperature as the tenderloin and can even go into the oven with the tenderloin.) Let sit for 2 minutes, and turn out onto a plate. Sprinkle feta atop, as well as grated lemon rind, chopped parsley, and chopped toasted walnuts.

Sort græskar kage – lige til halloween festen!

A Spoon Of Love

En super nem og utrolig lækker kage!

Denne opskrift var oprindeligt en gulerodskage, en opskrift min mor som teenager fik foræret af hendes veninde, hun valgte at dele den med mig og idag deler jeg den med jer.
Som sagt var det oprindeligt en gulerodskage, så besluttede jeg mig for at prøve at eksperimentere med at komme squash i. En blanding der hed lige dele gulerødder såvel som squash. I weekenden skulle guleroden så skiftes helt ud med hokkaido græskaret som passer så fantastisk godt til årstiden og faktummet at det snart er Halloween. Resultatet? Formidabelt! Lækre råvare og krydderier med smæk på, sørge for at hele huset dufter noget så skønt af hjemmebag, allerede fra dejen skrabes ud af skålen og ned i formen, breder en duft sig af krydderkage sig som bare ikke er til at få nok af!.

Ud over at dette må være min absolutte efterårs…

Pickled Ripe Tomatoes with Lemon (Modne syltede tomater med citron)

 

 

This recipe was originally published in Frøken Jensen Kogebog med Syltebog back in 1936 and was found on Spise Med Mormor 

1 kg ripe (not overripe) tomatoes
1 kg powdered sugar
Juice from 4 lemons

Dry the tomatoes well, prick with a darning needle and place in a jar, alternating with the sugar in layers. Let sit for 24 hours. The next day, pour the juice into a pot, add lemon juice, and bring to a boil. Pour the hot liquid over the tomatoes. Repeat the process over the next two days (heating up the juice and pouring it boiling hot over the tomatoes.) A bit of cognac can be poured into the jars on the last day before they’re sealed. Be sure to use the same hygiene rules for canning here as you would for anything else.

Chop the shallots. Melt butter in a pot and sauté until golden. Add red wine and reduce to half. Add stock and reduce to half. Whisk in the butter and truffle oil.

For the mushrooms and spinach:
Clean the mushrooms and cut into bite-sized pieces if necessary. Melt butter in a pan and roast the mushrooms on medium-high for a couple minutes with pressed garlic. Rinse the spinach and spin dry. Fold the spinach in the mushrooms and cook until the spinach wilts.
