Pomalo od svega

Yesterday we Pisces (my friends/colleagues) have celebrated our birthdays.
Noooo!!! My birthday is tomorrow. :D

I made stuffed onions, and we've decided to call them Mediterranean Couscous Onions.
Here it goes:

Mediterranean Couscous Onions
(p.s. Note that all numbers are approximate. My guess. That's how I cook! Pinch of this and a pinch of that. :D)

200gr couscous
pinch parsley (dry)
powdered garlic (if too difficult, just mash two-three colves)
small pinch of crunched dry rosemary
small pinch of oregano powder
pinch of dry mint leaves
1 bullion cube (I used vegetables one, as there were vegetarians in the group)
approx 50gr capers
approx 70 gr olives filled by garlic (sliced)
100gr sheep/goat feta cheese (cut in small cubes)
300gr sun dried tomatoes in oil, if possible use ones that have herbs added in the oil(cut them in stripes or flakes, or whatever - they're quite difficult to cut)
6-8 large onions
1 whole garlic, cleaned and chopped

Preparation:
Take 1/2l water and dissolve the cube. Let it simmer for a minute, then add couscous, parsley, garlic, rosemary, mint, oregano. Mix it well all together.
Let it simmer for a minute or two, then turn off the heat, cover it and let the grains soak in the water.
Note: I made couscous a day in advance. Wise, all liquid had been soaked in.

Half the onions lengthwise (good word? so, you see the length, not the circles, ok?).
You'll have to be quite patient here, as you divide the layers. I used two or three layers "cups", depending how thick the layers were.
So, from 6 onions I made approx 20 cups.

Chop the middle part of the onion (the core parts).
In the frying pan put enough oil from the sun dried tomatoes. Put onions and garlic in and let it fry until they get nicely soft and brown. When ready, add them to couscous. Add capers, olives, feta cheese and sun dried tomatoes. Mix it all well. Add 3-4ts oil (from tomatoes) to the mixture, and mix it well.

Fill the onions with the mixture, put it in the preheated oven for 20-30 minutes, 200C.
Delicious when warm!

And then I made a cake, one that M. and myself have named Wet dream.

Wet dream
(actually, it was a flopped try to make "almost kremsnjite")

1 package Verkade Langetjes with cinnamon (dakle, to su palac siroke, i oko 10cm dugacki dvopekici, psuti secerom i cimetom u prahu; Veerkade je proizvodjac, Langetjes je ime)
pogledajte ovdje ak vam i dalje nije jasno
65gr custard powder
65gr sugar
300ml whipped cream
one small bag vanilla sugar
100gr dark chocolate
0.5dl rum

Firstly, I made custard pudding with 0.9l milk (mix sugar and custard powder into thick paste, without clogs). I cooked it for a long time so that it gets super thick. The put to cool down.

Make the whipped cream (slag).

In the mean time take 1dl milk, add vanilla sugar and let it simmer a bit - sugar needs to dissolve. When ready, add rum.

Lay the layer of Veerkade Langetjes. Pour milk with rum over it (so that the cakes get lovely soft).

Ok, here I made mistake. As there were clogs in the pudding, I used hand mixer to mix it together with whipped cream. NO! Don't repeat my mistake.
To get rid of the clogs, firstly blend the pudding itself. And not for too long, otherwise it'll turn to liquid (and you'll get Wet Dream cake, lol).
After that, add as much whipped cream to the pudding as you like and mix it all together by hand!
No hand mixer!!!

Put in the fridge. Let it cool down.
In the end I melted chocolate, added a bit butter to it and poured over the cake.
C'est tout.

It was delicious, wasn't it? :D
