My 3 Favorite Dishes
I was super excited when Stevie from Weird Combinations (which I love for its eclectic topics ranging from restaurant reviews to wine tastings, and wonderfully exotic Brazilian recipes courtesy of Heguiberto) recently asked me to pick some of my posts and do a little game of reminiscing. While combing through my blog archive, I was reminded that one of my favorite things about cooking is to always try new recipes and dishes. I like being tempted and challenged by new ingredients and flavors, and would easily get bored if I had to cook the same few dishes over and over. So I thought it would be fun to change things up a bit outside of the kitchen as well, find out a little more about everyone’s favorite recipes, and give this game a new spin. I’d like to present to you -

So without further ado, here are My 3 Favorite Dishes:
Risotto With Soybeans And Caramelized Lemon - because risotto is one of the most divine inventions.
Sri Lankan Pumpkin Curry, Coconut Sambol, and Dahl – because I love spicy food.
Truffle Torte - because this is classic Austrian pastry at its most indulgent. Hazelnuts and chocolate, and lots of it!

oh I remember that truffle torte…it would be my top favourite!
Marvelous three courses. Creative and beautifully presented. Vibrant colors. I’ve thoroughly enjoyed finding your blog.
Thanks for thinking of me. I just posted the 7 Links challenge, so knocking it down to 3, should be a breeze.
Be well
Wow. Love those courses. You had me with the truffle torte, it looks to die for!
Thanks for sharing your 3 favorites. They all sure look yummie!
Hope you are having a great week Karen
For its clever combination and bright spring color, your risotto was my favorite, from this selection. It is fun to look back at our creations, and savor those moments. Wonderful work, Karen!
All 3 are great choices! Love this idea =)
Since we’ve only discovered each others’ culinary journey a little while ago…it seems I missed a few of your favourite dishes. Everything looks very appetizing as usual. Of course, dessert if my weakness ;o)
I’ll do practically anything for premium chocolate. LOL
Have a great weekend,
Claudia
What a mouth watering selection
, which one is for me daaaahling?
*kisses* HH
Thank you Karen! I’m really honoured to be tagged
This sounds like a lovely idea; I’ll try to get onto it soon. In the meantime, I’m going to go swoon over your risotto again
Oh goodness I was already getting hungry looking at all those recipes and then I got to the chocolate torte…not fair, I want a piece!
It never occurred to me to change the rules. You’re a maverick but a brilliant one–or maybe I’m too much of a rule-follower. Ha-ha.
I love all the things that you nominated here. The pumpkin curry sounds especially intriguing. Sweet and spicy, I’d guess.
You picked some great-looking favorite dishes! That truffle torte looks just amazing.
Beautiful selections! Each one looks more tempting than the last. Is must be like choosing your favorite child- too hard!
You always, always make the loveliest things, Karen.
As fall arrives in Amsterdam I’m so inspired to make your marvelous curries.
I can definitely vouch for that risotto Karen. Was so intrigued by the caramelised lemon topping, I made it I think a day or two after you posted it. It was delicious! Hmm, now that truffeltorte is calling out to be made too.
Reminiscing is such fun.
oh man that truffle torte just made me weak! So decadently delicious looking.
Hi dear Karen! Just wanted you to know I MISS you and your posts! I hope that you are OK and will be back sharing lovely things with us soon.
xo
What a fun idea!!! And I agree regarding the torte – beautiful! I’m not much of a sweets person but I do like looking at them
All of these are fantastic choices! Will be fun to see Lazaro’s as well
All the dishes sound delicious. I remember the risotto well….because it, like the dahl and the pumpkin curry, is such a happy yellow color. Yum!
