    Lemon Mashed Potatoes

milk
lemon zest
thym

Cook the potatoes and smash them. in a pot heat the milk with the butter and add the lemon zest and spices, add to the potatoes and mix well. Delicious!!!






Glazed Cauliflower with Almonds

(or Brussel sprouts with walnuts)









2 Cauliflowers washed, dried and cut in 1 cm slices (or 1 kg Brussel Sprouts, halved)
2 handfull Sliced almonds (or walnuts) toasted in a dry pan
4 garlic gloves, finely chopped
10 sage leaves, finely cut
1/4 cup olive oil
2 tsp maple sirup
2 tbsp mustard ( I used Dijon Mustard)



In a big pan heat the oil and add the cauliflower/ Brussels sprouts, slowly cost over medium heat. When tender, add the garlic but be careful that it doesn't burn, about 1 minute.
Meanwhile mix the mustard and the sirup or you can use honey mustard instead of the mustard-sirup-mix.
Add the nuts, the sage and the mustard mixture to the cauliflower and cook for a little while  until well combined.
