Recipe is my own idea.

Ingredients:

Preparation:
  1. Wash, peel and grate the carrots. Put them in a big bowl.
  2. Wash lemon, cut into wedges, add to the bowl.
  3. Wash the grapefruit, peel and cut into wedges. Add to the bowl.
  4. Add lemon juice and - step by step - sugar, stir, try. Add as much sugar necessary for you.
  5. Bon Appetit :)

The old formula for a young cabbage

An old recipe, coming from my Grandmother, for a very delicius addition on your dinner plate. Worth trying :)

Ingredients:
  • 1/2 cabbage
  • 1 bunch of dill
  • 1 smaller onion
  • 2 litres of salted water
  • pepper
  • salt
  • 2-3 teaspoons of vinegar
  • 2 tablespoons of flour
  • water
Preparation:
  1. Chop lettuce, put in a big pot with salted water. Put it on the heat and start boiling. (It will take something around 30 minutes, till it gets soft. Do not overboil it.)
  2. Chop the dill, into small parts (try to seperate stems and throw them away, so that you get only the soft part)
  3. Chop the onion.
  4. Put the onion on a plate/in a bowl, sprinkle it with pepper and salt and vinegar. Stir.
  5. If it is the right time, drain the cabbage.
  6. Add dill and onion from the plate to the cabbage. Stir. 
  7. Take a glass with water, put the flour inside and stir till smooth (there can't be any lumps)
  8. Put the cabbage-mix on the heat and add the glass with water-flour, stir all the time till it links and starts boiling. 
  9. Boil for 3-5 minutes. 
  10. Try it - if you wish - add more salt or pepper.
  11. Bon Appetit!
