It’s harvesting time for the pear tree in my munich garden and I got some really beautiful specimens. Now what to to do with it? I’m not a sweet-toothed guy at all but my wife likes vitamin kicks from self grown fruit very much, so, to preserve them I made her some pear sauce. There are a lot of cool recipes for pear-/apple sauce on the internet, but my girl likes it the simple and natural way, so here’s a very basic formula.
Tenshin Rice Bowl
This seems to be a very popular dish in Japan and – in my opinion – for a good reason. It’s named after the chinese city of Tianjin where it seems to originate from. It’s fried egg with seafood over rice, literally drowned in a savoury gravy.
Give it a try, it’s easy, satisfying and delicious! Here’s how to cook it:
Fusion Style Pantry Raid
So todays grass widower’s dinner was thin “soy sauce wine and butter beef slices” with a side of “miso XO noodles”. Yeah! And you know what? It was really good!
Raiding the fridge and kitchen cabinet yielded this: Beef slices, a pack of plain asian noodles, some spring onions and a remnant of miso. The rest were staple ingredients that I always have ready at hand. This was the real “Alex-being-at-a-loss Fusion Cuisine” 🙂
Salisbury Steak
I had the time to play a little Fallout 4 again the last days, which made me crave some

Here’s a simple recipe that I made for yesterday’s dinner:
Currywurst Sauce
I’m on a diet at the moment but I’m absolutely willing to have the occasional cheat day, so I made a classic german treat for me and the SO: Currywurst! Here’s the recipe for Alex’s special Currywurst-Sauce!
Anchovi and Garlic Pasta
Simple Vegetable Fritters
I wasn’t exactly thrilled by the prospect of having another veggie-only-meal yesterday evening, but what wouldn’t you do to try to eat healthy and loose some weight?
These simple veggie fritter patties were surprisingly tasty and satisfying though and I’m sure they would make an excellent side dish too. You can make them with any non-leafy and not too soft vegetables or even a free-style mix of several of them, but I only had zucchini at home, so here we are.
Japanese “Gyudon” (Beef Bowl over Rice)
Gyudon is a japanese beef bowl dish served over steamed rice.
As far as I know it is considered a type of fast food in Japan since it’s wuick and easy to make and requires only a few ingredients. However, it has nothing in common with western fast food as we know it.
To me, it’s very delicious and I like it very much from time to time. Please note that the original recipe calls for a pickled type of ginger slices called “Benishuoga” which is virtually unavailable here, so I had to omit it.
Here’s how to make it:
