Farcydes Top 3 Recipes 2024

It was an eventful year that lies behind us and there was considerably less time to be freed up for cooking and experimenting in the kitchen. Nonetheless, these are the dishes I liked best in 2024, give them a try, enjoy and let me know if they worked out for you.

 


Easy Roasted Chicken

Ahhh… roasted chicken, fresh and hot from the oven. Chicken is a versatile, delicious and affordable type of meat, there’s a million ways to cook it and so I really like eating chicken (just surely and most definitely not the girls in my backyard – that would be downright treason 🙂 ) Sooo…


Home made Scallion Oil

This seems to be a very common condiment in chinese cuisine and, while easy to make, it’s a deliciously aromatic and enriching addition to stir-fries and soups. Here’s how to make it, give it a try:


Chicken Udon Soup

Chicken and Udon Noodle Soup – a recipe taken from somwewhere ⤷ here a long time ago – is a simple and quick no-brainer for the evenings when you’re craving japanese food, in fact hungry but at the same time thoroughly unmotivated and lazy.


Homemade Yoghurt

I’m still on the weight-loss-journey (going well, thanks for asking) and always trying to find new foods that comply with my goal and on the other hand don’t taste like utter sh*t. Yoghurt is one of the things I didn’t have on the radar for a long time and that I now re-discovered as a protein-rich snack – and I wouldn’t be myself if I didn’t try to make my own, right?

And It’s surprisingly easy, just some kind of copy & paste procedure of propagating “old” yoghurt (i.e. store-bought) to “new”, multiplying it in the process. I’m not an expert (yet), but here’s how I did it and it worked decidedly well. Even my wife liked it.


Popovers for my Girl! (Homemade fluffy Breakfast Rolls Recipe)

Popovers (wiki here) are a traditional american type of light bread roll (somewhat similar to Yorkshire puddings) that are very convenient for breakfast and can be consumed in both sweet and savory variations. They seem to be one of those “my grandma used to make these for me when I was a child”-things that everyone has a fond memory of. My wife loves them in the morning, so occasionally I make her some.


Wild Bee Hotel Update

Before

After

 

 

 

 

 

 


 

Despite a cool and rain-spoiled summer, the insects in my garden have thrived apparently. And yes, not only slugs, ants and potato beetles, but luckily also pollinators like bees, moths and lacewings!

Anyway, the Wild Bee Hotel that I set up in spring attracted some customers, most of the holes are sealed shut meanwhile and there’s ample traffic in the area.


Injured Fawn at the Northern Germany Refuge

We found a little fawn right next to our garden fence these days! It was hiding in the tall grass next to the farm track leading over to the nearby fields that runs along there. So we kept back, watching (and photographing) from a distance and waiting to see what it would do. Now, fawns are left alone by their mother on a regular basis, well hidden and camouflaged against potential predators, but we noticed this one was literally screaming in intervals, as if in pain.
