Kiwi ice cream without ice cream maker

What’s going on in Pauline-Cuisine ?

The last few days have been really hot, like the summer was here, unfortunately, when the weekend arrives, the sun has disappeared. Anyway, it has been a long time that I wanted to do my own ice cream, I was looking for an ice cream maker but the major problem is that I don’t have any more space in my kitchen. I didn’t see the point to have an ice cream maker and keeping it in his box. So I decided to ask my mum if she knows a recipe for doing ice cream without ice cream maker and she gave me an amazing recipe.

I couldn’t imagine that it is so easy and quick to do ice cream. Moreover, with the homemade ice cream you can choose your very own flavor. As I bought some discounted kiwi at my local shop, I decided to give a try to a kiwi ice cream. Not easy to find it at the supermarket isn’t it? This kiwi ice cream is perfect as a dessert served with grilled almond. That makes a great impression to all your guests. Give a try at this amazingly easy and tasty kiwi ice cream. Don’t miss the opportunity to create some unexpected flavor for the summer.

Have a good week and see you next week with another delicious recipe.

Roasted apples and pears with pecan nuts and almond

What’s cooking on in Pauline-Cuisine ?

I recently put myself in the fact to create dessert for lunch box. Indeed, I am a sweet tooth and sometimes after delicious lunch box, I would appreciate a dessert. I didn’t want to have high sugar dessert or simple fruit salad; I wanted something in the middle, something with a nice touch on it. It took me quite a while before finding the right recipe that will tick all the boxes: roasted apples and pears with pecan nuts and flaked almond.

The two main goals of this dessert were: fruit based and healthy. As I have the habit to go to the market every Saturday, I am used to buy some apple but at the moment I quite fed up of the compote. So I decided to roast some apple and sweet pears in a pan with small pieces of butter. The smelling in the Kitchen was amazing :). After having roasting the apples and pears, I decided to add sliced pieces of soft prunes. I love this mix, but once again, I would like to add something, so I added pecan nuts and roasted flaked almond. The taste of the mix is great and the presentation of this dessert is amazing.

I hope you will find some time to try this dessert, easy to cook and so convenient as a dessert for lunch.

I wish you a nice week and see you next week with another delicious recipe.

Apricot treat and homemade yogurt

What’s going on in Pauline-Cuisine?

Sorry for my absence from last week but I was badly ill and I couldn’t go out to my bed and cook, so no new recipes went on going and all my grocery that I have ordered became out of date, so that is a pity, no strength for cooking and no food. I am a little poor thing :)

Anyway, as I had difficulty to eat, I focused on what I like the most and guest what! That is the sweet food. In my bed, I though about something that I usually saw in a famous French bakery in London: that is apricot in puff pastry. So I just try to imagine how to do it, I saw a friend to eat it so I had an idea of how to do it. When I feel a little bit better, I went out my bed and I defrost a puff pastry dough. When the dough was ready, I have prepared a frangipane and I took some apricots in a can and I began to do this little sweet thing. It was really delicious and I feel a little bit better after eating it. The frangipane was perfect with the apricot and you can choose the size of your dough in function of as sweet tooth as you are. Take the opportunity of the weekend for trying this quick and delicious treat or dessert.

The second recipe that I wanted to share with you is the one of homemade yogurt. I enjoy doing my yogurt and manage all the various taste of them. When I have checked my website two weeks ago I saw that I didn’t share with you the simple homemade yogurt, the one that you need for doing the yogurt cake with chocolate touch, so it is time to share with you this recipe. And if you have bored of the natural one, don’t hesitate to try the Homemade Guava yogurt or the Homemade Pineapple yogurt.

I wish you a nice week and see you next week with new recipes a little bit more Asian.
