Published by

Amerikanske Blåbærpandekager med Kærnemælk og Blåbærsirup til Urtekram For this recipe in English, go here! Når min mand skal forkæle mig, så laver han gerne en portion Amerikanske Pandekager. Det kan han fordi de er meget nemme at lave, og fordi jeg har lært ham hvordan! Vi guffer gerne en portion om søndagen, hvor vi serverer dem med smør og ahornsirup. Men jeg har været ivrig efter at afprøve Utekrams Blåbærsirup til denne opskrift, og jeg kan sige jer det er lækkert. Nyd de små tykke amerikanske pandekager til brunch eller server dem som dessert.   10 stk Ingredienser 275g øko hvedemel ½ liter øko kærnemælk 3 spsk friske øko blåbær 2 øko æg 2 spsk øko rørsukker 1 knivspids salt 1½ tsk bagepulver 50g smeltet øko smør Tilbehør smør blåbærsirup Pisk mel, bagepulver, smeltet smør, salt, sukker og kærnemælk sammen.

Rhubarb Jam for Urtekram

Published by

I have just started to blog for Danish health food producers Urtekram. They make high quality organic food and beauty products, which are for sale in Denmark as well as here in the UK. If you can read danish (!) then I’ll be blogging from here a couple of times a month. I’ll be highlighting some of their fantastic products in my recipes, which I’m sure will tempt you – such as Low-Fat Organic Cocoa and Organic Coconut Sugar.   Let me share my fist blog post from Urtekram here with you, in English! Delicious and sweet homemade rhubarb jam, made with my own freshly picked rhubarb.   Rhubarb Jam Makes 2-3 large jars Ingredients 500g rhubarb, cut into chunks 500g organic sugar 1 vanilla pod, halved lengthways 1/2 organic lemon Put a small plate in the freezer. Put the rhubarb into a large saucepan and heat until the rhubarb begins to go soft. Next add the sugar and halved vanilla pods. Continue to heat gently, stirring, until all the sugar has dissolved, then squeeze in the …

Portuguese Chickpea Salad

Published by

For the first two night of our Portuguese Honeymoon we stayed in Caldas de Monchique, a mountain spa town, nestled into a lush green subtropical jungle – a perfect get-away for a newly wed couple. It’s a little rough round the edges, but it is full of charm and amazing flora and fauna. We took the time there, to just decompress after a very busy 3 months of wedding arrangements. We loungeing by the pool, had massages and romantic dinners in the 16th century courtyard. We also sampled a delicious Cod & Chickpea Salad in their tapas bar, which is a traditional Portuguese summer dish, served with crusty bread and lots of wine! After our stay in the mountains, we travelled to the south coast of Portugal where my criteria for accommodation included a kitchen. I can’t not cook on holiday..!       And the first thing I whipped up was a vegetarian/vegan version of that delightful Chickpea Salad we sampled in Monchique. Everywhere you go in Portugal you’ll see orange sellers, and often they will also be …

About Camera & Clementine

Published by

Camera & Clementine is a vegetarian* food blog, run by me Anna Pettigrew. It was founded on the principals of using healthy and seasonal produce in the kitchen. Most of which during the summer months I grow myself. My love of beautiful food and cooking, combined with my skills as a photographer motivated me to start this blog in 2013, and it is my hope that it will inspire others to cook and eat seasonally as well as grow their own and forage for wild food. I have roots both in Denmark and in Scotland where I currently live and work as a photographer and recipe writer for cooking and gardening magazines. I have been lucky enough to have traveled extensively around the world and eaten some really weird as well as magically wonderful food along the way, something that I think is reflected in my ‘world’ cooking style. I like to have fun with my photography, which results in my food photographs being a mix of colourful and rustic images. I shoot using a …

Twice Cooked Butternut Squash Pasta

Published by

I woke up to the sound of lovely bird song this morning, the sun was shining, and on closer inspection, the daffodil heads had come up from between their green shoots. How exciting, spring will come again! And after a long walk with the dog, I fancied a pasta dish I made for Kitchen Garden Magazine back in November. For this deliciously heart-warming dish, use either pumpkin or butternut squash. They both work well, but sometimes pumpkin can be hard to find out with Halloween, unless you have a farm shop near by. What makes this dish a little different is the pan-frying of the pasta. This merges and melts all the flavours into a mouthwatering lunch or dinner. ___________________________________________________________ Ingredients Serves 4 1 medium butternut squash 1 large onion, peeled and diced 3 cloves garlic, minced a dash of olive oil 1 small handful fresh sage leaves 500g pasta 50g pumpkin seeds good quality hard cheese , grated for the top salt and pepper to taste ______________________________________________________   Pre heat the oven to 200C/fan …

Fig and Honey Yoghurt with Poppy Seeds and a Taste of Portugal

Published by

  I am back from a most wonderful time in Portugal. The weather was magnificent, gifting us with pleasant warm breezes and cloud free skys. It wasn’t easy adjusting back to the autumn weather up here in the more northern latitudes of Scotland, but I can comfort myself with the knowledge, that under this thick fisherman’s sweater, I do indeed have a tan! The best thing about taking a trip away, for me, is forgetting all the everyday tasks of home life and work, and allowing yourself to fall into a new more relaxed routine. Our routine whilst away, was to be woken up at dawn by the local cockerel, make our sleepy way to the balcony and watch the sunrise over freshly made coffee. When I’m on holiday, breakfasts are my favorite meal, they are a chance to sample the county’s freshest produce, usually in a way which requires little preparation or cooking, and usually in its most simple of forms. I spent lost of time traipsing through local vegetable markets, and filling my …

September Lagkage – Danish September Birthday Cake

Published by

  The brambles are thriving this year in the woodlands by our house, a lovely sight reminding us that there is still food to be found during the seasonal change from summer to autumn. And so, for the birthday cake I made last week, brambles seemed a fitting ingredient, providing tangy notes to an otherwise very sweet Danish cake. Lagkage translates as Layer Cake, and consists of 3 thin sponges, layered up with either a whipped cream filling or a custard filling. In addition to that, fruit and jam are added to make this cake a special occasion cake, not only for the time involved in making it, but for the sheer number of calories! No birthday in Denmark will usually go without a Lagkage, and neither does a birthday in our house. _____________________________________________________ Ingredients 150g plain flour 150g butter, softened 150g sugar 3 eggs 1 tsp baking powder Filling 700 ml whipping cream 250 g amaretto biscuits, crushed 3 tbsp brandy 1 mango, diced 100g brambles 4 tbsp icing sugar For the top 75g …
