Chana Chat. Indian Spicy Salad.

First ever guest posting on Kayotic Kitchen! I really want to introduce a friend of mine, Simone. Simone is a fellow Dutchie and is the author and photographer of Junglefrog Cooking—one of my favorite food blogs. I love her recipes and photography. Here’s why!   When Kay asked me if I wanted to do a guest post on her blog I was honored, especially since that doesn’t happen very often….

    Balsamic Onion & Potato Frittata

    This is my new addiction. Potatoes and onion are already two of my favorite things in the world, but when you pair them with egg, spices and some balsamic? Bellisimo! This is the basic, bare-naked, version. You can take it any direction you like. Feel like adding roasted bell peppers? Go for it. Need green in your life? Throw in a few spring onions. Use different herbs. Make it your…

      Corn With Ancho Chile Butter

      This may not seem like a biggie to you, but to those of us having a tough time getting hold of authentic Mexican or even American ingredients, it is. I found an NL based Mexican webstore the other week, probably belonging to a home-sick Mexican trying to suppress his true emotions about the bland food we tend to eat here. Anyway, I placed an order even though it meant I…

        Quick Wedge Salad

        Another one of those: “Bring a little USA to the Netherlands,” recipes is a wedge salad. If you’re Dutch, chances are you’ll be frowning now, wondering just what the heck a wedge salad is. You see, here in Holland we never, ever eat our lettuce in wedge form. It’s just not something you’ll see happening here. Not in our homes, not in our restaurants, nowhere really. Bringing plates filled with…

          More Than Salad

          First, let me start by saying that this is not a low-fat recipe. Okay, that’s out of the way. The good news? Some recipes are worth all the hours you’re gonna have to spend in the gym trying to burn off the calories you consumed in only one sitting. This is one of them. It’s got bacon, and avocado. Which, I gather, doesn’t come as a total surprise to you….

            BBQ Potatoes

            This is so simple it doesn’t even qualify as a recipe. But I don’t care, sharing it anyway! When I whipped up an indecent amount of Sunshine BBQ Chicken, I needed an easy side dish that wouldn’t overrule the flavor of the chicken and could also be prepped in an oven as well… since I know not every one has a Big Green Egg. Yes, I know, you can stop…
