Beef tenderloin fillet with cranberry sauce

Beef tenderloin goes perfect with cranberries. This is an extremely simple recipe on how to pair the two delicious ingredients into a perfect steak dinner which will surprise your taste buds. All that is needed are few ingredients, good quality beef and about 10 minutes. My recommendation as a side dish with this recipe would be potato croquettes but it is possible to serve it with a wide range of side dishes.   Category: Main course Prep time: 0 min Cook time: 10 mins Serves 2 Ingredients: 500g beef tenderloin fillet 30g butter 1 tsp flour 1dl beef stock soup 0,3 dcl sherry wine 1 tbs wild cranberry jam Instructions: Season the beef steaks with salt and pepper.

Zagorska soup

  Zagorje is a region in Croatia and this soup could be called a spoonful of Zagorje as it involves all of the ingredients typical for this region - dry bacon, sour cream, porcini mushrooms and wine. In constant hurry and battle with the lack of time, often, and quite often unwillingly people reach out to fast food although they would much rater prefer a spoonful of homemade comfort food. If we stop and think for a moment it becomes clear that even decades ago, there existed something similar to fast food. A fast food kind of meal solution. If offered "Zagorska" soup most of us won't think about fast food at all, but in a way it is exactly that. With ingredients like bacon, potatoes and mushrooms, fast cooking time and the use of most ingredients which are almost always present in the fridge it can be considered a retro kind of fast food. Fragrant smell, delicious taste and warmth of an ideal quick homemade dish. Prep time: 15 min Cook time: 1h Total:  1h 15min Serves 4 I...

Most famous version of this dish is quiche Lorainne, though it is still debated whether the original recipe involves bacon and cheese or only cheese.  Regardless, quiche is a very delicious dish in any form, and this is the recipe for quiche with broccoli, which differs from other recipes as it involves fresh cheese being added to the dough, and results in a more fluff dough.
