Kolekcja
Siedemdziesiąt dań na stół, gdy goście przyjdą za godzinę: bruschetty, rolady z lawaszu, tartaletki, deski, sałatki, dania z patelni i desery bez pieczenia, wszystko do 30 minut z ceną porcji. Gotowe stoły: w godzinę, bez piekarnika, tanio, bez gotowania, kolacja we dwoje, dla dzieci.
Seventy dishes, none over 30 minutes, for setting a table when the guests are already on their way: thirty starters, from bruschetta, lavash rolls with salmon and crab sticks, tartlets and canapés to cheese balls, tomatoes with cheese, garlic croutons, nachos and platters; fourteen salads, among them crab, Caesar, Greek, caprese, shrimp and avocado, pear and blue cheese; nineteen pan-cooked mains, from cheese-topped cutlets and salmon pasta to garlic butter shrimp, quesadilla, khinkali and steak; seven no-bake desserts and drinks.
Every dish has a price per serving from average supermarket prices. Below are six ready tables with a total and cooking time; platters and a cheese board come together in ten minutes while the pasta water boils.
The order in the hour before the guests: first what needs to sit in the fridge (lavash rolls, cheesecake in a glass, lemonade), then salads without dressing and platters, and the main goes on fifteen minutes before the doorbell. Bruschetta fits in while the pasta water boils; dress the salads and cut the fruit with the guests there rather than ahead.
Every recipe has a servings counter: set the number of guests and the grams recalculate. For four, two starters, a salad, one main and a dessert are usually enough; with children among the guests, swap the main for mini pizzas or a quesadilla, eaten by hand and without persuasion.
