This last Sunday I took time to prepare another delicious #SundayCook.The inspiration started with the need to spend two packets of whipping cream (expiration date)...but I was not in the mood for a dessert. Two packets of cream mean 400ml of cream...which is a lot for who wants to have a healthy meal. I had to figure how to make the healthier option...and I came up with cod with cream and a few more vegetables! |
No passado domingo, aproveitei para preparar outro #SundayCook delicioso.A inspiração surgiu da necessidade de gastar dois pacotes de natas (data de validade) ... mas não me apetecia nenhuma sobremesa. Dois pacotes de natas são 400ml de natas... o que é muito para quem quer ter uma alimentação saudável. Tive que arranjar uma opção minimamente saudável ... e surgiu o bacalhau com natas e mais alguns vegetais! |
This Sunday I cooked | Este Domingo cozinhei:

It's ready to serve!! | Está pronto a ser servido!!
Look how creamy and moisty it was | Vejam o quão cremoso estava
Yum Yum!!
On SundayCook #30 I had already shared a Cod with cream traditional recipe, but that's how live is. We must adapt according to what we have to deal (in this case two cream packets almost expired) and adding vegetables to counterweight all those extra calories. |
No SundayCook #30 já tinha partilhado a receita do Bacalhau com natas tradicional, mas a vida é assim. Temos de nos ajustar consoante o que surge (neste caso dois pacotes de natas a passar da validade) e juntando mais vegetais para compensar as calorias extra das natas. |
Hope you all enjoyed my adapted version of Cod with cream | Espero que tenham gostado da minha adaptação do Bacalhau com natas
I will come back with another delicious Sunday cook!!
Stay tuned!!
What is Sunday Cook?!
This Sunday Cook project began with a strong will to contribute to Steemit with my personal view of Portuguese cuisine. I really believe we have plenty of good food. Despite I'm not a professional or nothing similar, I can assure that I'm doing my best, and hopefully, I'm improving my skills too!
On Sundays (cold Sundays), I like to prepare more elaborate and delicious food. It requires time and patience. Usually, I cook some traditional Portuguese food, or at least with Portuguese inspiration :) I try to do it in a healthier way, using the minimum fat as possible, and normally I pick some recipe and transform it. During the week I don't like to spend much time cooking (no time at all), that's why I get totally motivated to cook on Sundays!!
PORTUGUÊS
Eu voltarei com outro SundayCook delicioso!!
Fiquem atentos!!
O que é o Sunday Cook?!
Este projeto iniciou-se com uma grande vontade de contribuir para o Steemit com a minha visão pessoal da cozinha Portuguesa. Eu considero que temos excelentes pratos. Apesar de não ser profissional nem nada que o valha, garanto que tenho feito o meu melhor, e espero estar a melhorar os meus dotes culinários!
Nos Domingos (quando está frio), gosto de preparar comida mais elaborada. Requer tempo e paciência. Normalmente, cozinho pratos da cozinha tradicional Portuguesa, ou pelo menos inspirados na mesma. Tento cozinhá-los de uma forma saudável, usando o mínimo de gordura possível e normalmente pego numa receita e adapto ao meu gosto. Durante a semana não gosto de perder tempo a cozinhar (nada mesmo), e é por isso que me sinto motivada a cozinhar nos Domingos!!
