Happiness Most Delicious

mmm - happiness
Roast beef and honey roast parsnips
Sunday lunch at one
Chocolate drizzled profiteroles
mmm - what scrumtious fun

mmm - happiness
Sizzling barbecue flame-grilled
Outdoor summer dining
Strawberries draped in clotted cream
mmm - sets tastebuds a-pining

Another quick German recipe!

This is a recipe my aunts like to make. It is a kind of a salad but really rich in taste and I guess it also has some calories, since mayonnaise is included. Other than that is is actually really healthy.

 Layered Salad "Schichtsalat"

Ingredients:
2-3  poles of leek
1 package of ham (around 10 slices)
 2 cans of corn
2 cans of pineapple
3-5 apples
2 eggs (hard boiled)
pepper
salt
nutmeg 

Preperation: 
First of all take a big bowl where you can see through. This will make a good impression.
The bottom layer will be the corn, afterwards the pineapple, ham, apple, eggs and last but not least the leek on the top. Now you take 4 to 5 tablespoons of mayonnaise and put it on top as a flat layer. For the taste you add some pepper, slat, and nutmeg

TIP: 
To make it more healthier you can use organic fruits and a light mayonnaise. Some people like it also with some shredded cheese on top.
Guten Appetit! Bon appetit!

Time to cook and Time to tell you the recipe

Although school is really intense, I had some time to exercise and cook some german food.
You should try it. It's called "Kartoffelpuffer" potato fritter.
Easy and fast:

Kartoffelpuffer "Potato Fritter"
7 big potato's
4 eggs
salt, pepper and nutmeg

PREPARATION:
First peel the potato's then shred them really small and push the water out by hand. You have to take a handfull of the shredded potato's and push the liquid out. Afterwards mix it with the eggs, salt, pepper and nutmeg, put oil in a pan and fry them goldish brown. 
Best taste with applesauce (maybe even homemade)
