This kind of tortilla meal I could eat all summer… In general, Mexican cuisine is something amazing during the summer season! These tortillas are one of those dishes that you want to repeat, even if there’s no space left in the stomach… Buuut, when your eyes want it – it’s really hard to stop, and…

Borsch/Barščiai
There is a big diversity of borsch recipes – Ukrainian, Russian, Polish, etc. It could be even said that each Eastern European country has one or more specific ingredients in the borsch recipe, which makes borsch their country soup. In my own kitchen, I usually make borsch with sauerkraut and little pieces of meat, and…

Mexican Corn Pudding (Pudin de Elote) / Meksikietiškas kukurūzų pudingas (Pudin de Elote)
I really like to make new, never yet been tried cakes and other sweets. Every time after preparing a new dessert, it’s always interesting what the taste and the texture will be, and whether it is worth to add to the favorites list or not. And, of course, the more interesting recipe and ingredients are,…
Southern Buttermilk Fried Chicken / Traški vištiena amerikietiškai
No matter what kind of season it is (hot summertime or cold winter), but I would never refuse a piece of crispy chicken, because it is soooo delicious… And there is nothing even comparable between fast-food restaurant crispy chicken and with homemade, because the taste is different as day and night. If you want tasty…
Tostadas de Tinga de Pollo – Stewed Chicken Tostadas/Tostadas de Tinga de Pollo – Tortilijų skrebučiai su troškinta vištiena
Stewed chicken tostadas – is a superb summer appetizer, which I guarantee you’ll make over and over again.

Strawberries, strawberries, strawberries! Summer – the time of strawberries!!! The cupcakes with strawberries and cream is one of the most ideal way to use them 🙂 After looking at these beauties, can you argue about it??

Herring with Onions, Oil and Lemon Juice/Silkė su svogūnais, aliejumi ir citrinos sultimis
At least several times a month I always make something from the herring. I just want that different and distinctive taste of herring, which is very difficult to find elsewhere in the world kitchens. I know that for the Americans and probably for people from many other countries, eating the herring is a very obscure…
Mexican Chicken Salad/Meksikietiškos vištienos salotos
During the summertime everyone just wants a light, but nutritious and easily prepared food. So here, on my plate there is a palette of all summer colors (or at least most of it)! Mexican salad can be very cool to improvise, depending on what kind of products you have on a hand. This salad is…
Classic Coleslaw/Amerikietiškos kopūstų salotos
I would say quite confidently that coleslaw in the US is the most popular salad in all the country… It can be ordered in every bigger restaurant or fast food restaurant, you can buy it at any larger supermarket or at a smaller store. In short, this is one of the main salad in American…
Strawberry Cream Chimichangas / Čimičangos su kreminiu sūriu ir braškėmis
Chimichangas – it’s another great Mexican stuff in my kitchen! 🙂 I can’t deny, all Mexican appetizers are my weakness, including sweet ones. To make chimichangas you can choose from a wide variety of fillings – sweet one, with different kind of meat, cheese or vegetables. Depending on what kind of chimichangas you want, because…
Pork Pilaf / Kiaulienos Plovas
Who could refuse a bowl of evaporating and delicious pilaf?? 🙂 In Lithuania it would be probably difficult to find lithuanian, who wouldn’t like pilaf. Although pilaf is especially popular in many Asian, Balkan and other neighboring countries, Lithuania is not an exception neither (although it’s neither Asia nor Balkans :D). Perhaps pilaf adapted to…
