INTRODUCTION

ABOUT THE RECIPE

Elevate your salad game with this green herb salad, a lush blend of romaine and butter lettuce mixed with sweet peas and tangy pickled onions, all dressed in a light, herb-infused yogurt dressing. It’s a garden-fresh delight that captures the essence of spring in every bite.

How to serve
This salad shines brightest when served fresh. Toss the crisp lettuces with the peas and pickled onions just before serving and sprinkle generously with dill, chives, and tarragon for that extra burst of freshness. It’s perfect alongside a grilled fish or as a standalone dish that’s both fulfilling and light.

How to store
Best enjoyed immediately, however, if you have leftovers, keep them separate in an airtight container in the fridge. The salad stays fresh for about two days, but it’s ideal to add the dressing just before serving to maintain crispness.

Print Recipe

Description

RECOMMENDED EQUIPMENT

  • sharp knife
  • cutting board
  • garlic press
  • oven-safe pan
  • large plate

Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 1 puff pastry dough
  • 4 big tomatoes
  • 2 garlic cloves
  • 1/2 tsp dried thyme
  • 3 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tbsp honey
  • salt & pepper to taste
  • 1 tsp fresh thyme
  • 30 grams parmesan

Instructions

  1. Take the puff pastry out of the fridge. Set aside.
  2. Preheat the oven to 220°C (428°F).
  3. Wash the tomatoes and slice them finely from the bottom. Peel and finely chop or press the garlic and mix it into a small bowl with 1-2 tablespoons of olive oil. Set everything aside.
  4. Roll out the puff pastry and place the oven-safe pan on top. Trace a circle around the pan and cut out the puff pastry accordingly. Set the pastry circle aside. Don’t discard the remaining pastry. You can either make a second layer of pastry for the Tarte Tatin or cut it into squares, place a cube of feta in the middle, wrap it up, and bake until golden brown in the oven. Topped with a bit of honey, thyme, and salt, you quickly create a simple snack 🙂
  5. Heat the pan and briefly sauté honey, olive oil, dried thyme, and salt until bubbles form. Then distribute the tomato slices in the pan, brush them with the garlic oil, and let them caramelize for about 1-2 minutes. Remove from the heat, top with freshly ground pepper, and lay the puff pastry circle on top. Tuck the edges slightly inward and press firmly. Prick a few holes in the pastry with a fork.
  6. Bake the pan in the oven on the bottom rack uncovered for about 25 minutes.
  7. In the meantime, coarsely grate or slice the Parmesan and pluck the fresh thyme leaves from their stems. Set aside.
  8. Remove the pan from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes. Then place a plate larger than the pan over the pan and quickly invert to turn out the Tarte Tatin onto the plate.
  9. Top the Tarte Tatin with Parmesan, fresh thyme, and pepper, and serve immediately. Enjoy your piece of happiness!

Description

RECOMMENDED EQUIPMENT

  • medium-sized bowl
  • oven-safe pan

Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 4 boneless chicken thighs
  • 1/4 cup greek yogurt
  • juice of 1 lemon
  • 1/2 tbsp dried oregano
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp pepper
  • 1/8 – 1/4 tsp chili flakes
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp fresh thyme
  • 2 tsp butter

Instructions

PREPARATIONS

  • In a medium-sized bowl, mix the following ingredients into a marinade: yogurt, lemon juice, peeled and pressed garlic cloves, chili flakes, oregano, salt, and pepper.
  • Place the chicken thighs in the bowl and rub them thoroughly with the marinade. Let the thighs marinate in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour up to overnight.

INSTRUCTIONS

  1. Preheat the oven to 200°C / 392°F.
  2. Remove the chicken thighs from the refrigerator and place them skin-side up in an ovenproof pan. Slice a lemon and arrange the slices between the chicken thighs in the pan. Place about 1/2 teaspoon of butter on each thigh and drizzle 1-2 tablespoons of olive oil over everything.
  3. Bake the pan with the thighs in the oven for about 45 minutes uncovered. Depending on the size of the thighs, it might take a bit longer. Turn on the broiler 5-10 minutes before the end of cooking to get the chicken really crispy. A delicious sauce will naturally form in the pan while baking.
  4. Serve the hot thighs and the sauce immediately. They go best with salad, potatoes, or rice. Enjoy your piece of bliss!

Description

RECOMMENDED EQUIPMENT

  • baking pan (I used a 28x8cm / 11”x3” loaf pan)
  • large bowl
  • measuring cup
  • plastic wrap (or kitchen towel)
  • small bowl
  • sharp knife
  • cutting board
  • garlic press
  • rolling pin

Ingredients

Units Scale

DOUGH

  • 600 grams all-purpose flour
  • 42 grams fresh yeast
  • 2 tsp sugar
  • 2 tsp salt
  • 50 milliliters oil of your choice (I used cold-pressed rapeseed oil)
  • 350 milliliters lukewarm water

FILLING

  • 5 garlic cloves
  • 30 grams fresh herbs (I used thyme, oregano, basil, rosemary & parsley)
  • 125 grams soft butter
  • salt & pepper

Instructions

  1. For the dough, mix flour, sugar, and salt in a large bowl. In a measuring cup, measure out the lukewarm water, crumble in the fresh yeast, and stir until the yeast dissolves. Add the yeast water and olive oil to the flour-sugar-salt mixture and mix until a sticky dough forms. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or a damp towel and set aside for 10 minutes.
  2. With a wet hand, grab one side of the dough, lift it up, and fold it into the middle. Repeat with the other three sides. Let the dough rest for another 10 minutes, then repeat the folding process and let the dough rise, covered, for 1 hour.
  3. Meanwhile, prepare the filling. Finely chop the herbs and peel the garlic cloves, then either finely chop them or use a garlic press. In a small bowl, mix the softened butter, herbs, garlic, salt, and pepper into a paste and set aside (do not refrigerate, the butter should remain spreadable). Prepare the baking pan by either greasing it with a bit of butter or lining it with parchment paper, and set aside.
  4. After the dough has risen for an hour, perform one final round of folding and let it rise, covered, for another hour.
  5. Turn the dough out onto a clean, lightly floured surface and roll it out into a rectangle about 1/2” thick. Spread the butter-garlic-herb paste evenly over the dough. Cut the dough into strips about 8cm / 3” wide. Fold each strip like an accordion and place them upright in the baking pan with the buttered side facing up. Repeat with all the strips, pressing the dough snugly into the pan. Preheat the oven to 200°C / 392°F. Bake the dough for about 30 minutes. Serve warm or let cool. And now enjoy this piece of happiness 🙂
