Chez Loulou

Did you ever dream to make your own French baguette ? You're welcome ❤

Tonight I tried the  Sticky Sesame Cauliflower from Connaisseurus veg That was a really good dinner that me and the girls really enjoyed. Very comforting and satisfying food. And normally I'm not a big fan of cauliflower... I did put less sugar in the sauce though because the quantity in this recipe was just enormous. It was more than enough with half of the sugar that you normally put.  The batter that you make in the beginning was also too much. Make half of it, then you don't waste so much ingredients. And put a little more flour than indicated then you can correctly coat your cauliflower with the batter. Enjoy !

Here is how to make wonderful Egyptian bread ❤ Ingredients : 350 gr water 1 packet yeast 450 gr flour 50 gr whole rye flour 10 gr salt Mix all the ingredients well and knead. Let the dough rise in a warm place for an hour. Knead again and form small balls. Cover them and let them rise for another 20 mn. Spread them out with a rolling pin to get a nice flat circle. Use more rye flour if they are sticky. And then watch the video to see how you bake the bread ( you'll need a pastry circle and a grid ) Enjoy !

Tonight's diner was vegan pierogies from  Connaisseurusveg Very good recipe, very economic as well and everybody liked it 😊 I just add seasoning, more garlic, some thyme and pepper, otherwise I followed the recipe by the letter and it was amazing. Highly recommended 😋

Our dinner tonight, fantastic Bò Bún, 100% vegan 😊 The "beef" you see in the picture ? Dehydrated soy chunks, that I rehydrated by marinating them with curry, garlic, soy sauce, vegan oyster sauce and a little bit of sugar. Then fried them in the pan and tadam, you have your "beef". I had unexpected guests today and they couldn't tell the difference with real beef, so that is good stuff ❤ Also the stock you prepare for the  Bò Bún is normally based with fish sauce. So I marinated some algae and light soy sauce and got a result that was really near of the fishy taste you normally get. So I made the stock with this homemade "fish sauce", rice vinegar and sugar. At the end I added a little from the marinade I used for the soy chunks. Otherwise, fresh salad, fresh soy sprouts, rice noodles, veggie spring rolls, cilantro and we had a complete meal that made us and our guests happy and full. Highly recommended ❤
