#7 dinner recipe

200g konjac noodles -> 16 kcl

dash (50ml) soy (or other) milk -> ~15 kcl

Toppings (feel free to change/adjust):

50g shredded carrot -> 20 kcl

1 bok choy (125g) -> 18 kcl

1 spring onion -> 2 kcl

Recipe:

Prepare noodles: rinse the noodles for 2 min under running water. Then boil them (they don’t overcook). This removes any bad flavor/smell

How to perfectly soft boil an egg: Set water to boil in a pan, once roaring gently put in the eggs and boil for exactly 5 min. After put them in the fridge and/or in a bowl with cold water (stops cooking process)

Break off leaves of the bok choy and boil whole for 5 min.

Cut mushrooms into strips and sauté with an occasional splash of water (mushrooms are one of the only veggies you can sauté in water) until browning

Cut spring onion into fine rings

Combine your noodles, soup base, milk and add your toppings.

Enjoy!💖🪽

#6 dinner recipe

Ingredients:

1 egg plant -> ~115 kcl

1/2 cauliflower -> ~75 kcl

5g (extra virgin) olive oil -> 42 kcl

Spices -> ~16 kcl

Little bit of lemon juice (3-5g) -> 1 kcl

(Optional: bell pepper + cherry tomatoes)

Spice mix:

1 tsp cumin powder, 1/2 tsp (paprika, garlic powder, ground coriander, salt), 1/4 tsp (turmeric, cinnamon, pepper), pinch of nutmeg and cayenne pepper to taste (or leave it out if u don’t like spicy food)

Recipe:

Preheat the oven to 180 degrees C

Make the spice mix by adding the spices, olive oil, lemon juice and a little water to turn it into a liquidy paste consistency

Cut the egg plant cross diagonally (picture guide below) without cutting through the outer skin and message the spice mix between the grooves

Put in the oven for 45 min at 180C

Boil the cauliflower until slightly overcooked. Separate the cooking water and blend until smooth. Then add nutmeg and salt

Toppings:

Pour a little of the soup over the egg plant! makes a world of difference! I really recommend roasting bell peppers and cherry tomatoes alongside the egg plant, sprinkle with salt.

For a higher kcl version this dish is usually served with couscous (as it is inspired by Moroccon cuisine)

Enjoy! 🍲🍴

#2 dessert recipe

Since there are no tags on my posts pls reblog!

Ingredients:

15g AP flour -> 51 kcl

5g cocoa powder -> 18 kcl

15g egg whites -> 8 kcl

1g baking powder -> 1 kcl

Sweetener of choice -> 0 kcl

20ml of water -> 0 kcl

Recipe:

Mix dry, then wet ingredients.

Microwave for 40 seconds at 600W

Tips:

1. Don’t overbake! Since there are no fats in the batter, it will dry out fast! After 40 sec try 15 sec increments! Every microwave is slightly different 😅

2. Accidentally came out too dry? Poor some milk over it!

3. Toppings! I like to top mine with sugar free icing, a piece of dark molten chocolate or hazelnut butter 🤤

3. Don’t wanna waste an egg yolk? In most big supermarkets they sell egg whites separately!

Personal note 💖

Ive made this meal about a gazillion times. It js hits different, very filling (fibreee!) and amazing nutritionally. I recently added some fennel seeds to the recipe, which my Italian friend proposed. It gives it such a freshness and so much extra flavor.
