+my personal blog

making food with the few skills and tools available. this blog begun before i started studying hotel and restaurant management at haaga-helia university of applied science.

student life can be full of flavor, too. all food made and captured by me unless stated otherwise.

i use both my phone cam and a dslr - which isn't mine - to take pictures, so no steady-quality guarantee.

i don't like capital letters. it's not that i don't know how to use them, but this is the internet.

pork sirloin steaks slightly seasoned with only salt and pepper, because the quickly stir-fried forest mushrooms served with them give so much flavor. to the mushrooms i added only a tiny dash of lemon juice. for presentation, added a pinch of coarsely ground black pepper and it made quite a difference - in a positive way.

pork steaks and ultra-crispy roast potatoes.

this is the most insane thing i’ve ever done. and i mean it. this was a ..thing i couldn’t finish. too. much. everything. the first half was heaven, though. and yes, you guessed it: massive hangover.

ok, now, i might have the fillings written up somewhere.. but too lazy. i remember there being minced beef, bacon, kebab slices, pork, salami, feta cheese, normal cheese (don’t remember), beans, slices of pizza.. i might’ve forgotten something… but you get the idea.

“tirripaisti” (a slow-simmered sauce with almost charred side pork strips) and mashed potatoes. there’s some coke and red wine in the sauce too. oh dear lord it was good. i did that smooth mash with just a fork! never thought that’d be possible.
