Belgium Round-up

Our December destination of Belgium brings only two dished (I'm guessing the holidays left everyone extra busy, I know it did me!)but they look delicious, here they are...

First off we have a delicious bowl of Warm Lentil Salad with Caramelized Onions and Brussels Sprouts from Janet at the taste space.  Looks like a great first Brussels sprouts dish to try!

~~~

And next up and closing out the round-up is a beautiful Salad Liegeoise, a Belgian potato salad with bacon, green beans, onion and a vinegar dressing, courtesy of Corina at Searching for Spice, what a delicious choice!

These two dishes both sound wonderful! I had my heart set on making some Belgian Liege waffles, ever bought the special sugar, but just haven't had a chance to make them yet! 

Thanks for visiting, if you would like to cook along on our culinary travels we are heading to Jamaica for January, please feel free to join us :)

December Destination -- Belgium

Hi guys, I figured I'd try something new this month and make a seperate post where you can leave a link to your recipe with a linky instead of commenting with a link. I think this might be a bit quicker and I know it will be nice for me to just check the linky widget when I do the round-up, so I won't miss anyone!

Brussels' Grand Place, Belgium, Europe

Our December destination is Belgium so pick a Belgian recipe and give it a try, and post a link to your My Kitchen My World post here with the linky widget...



Any questions just let me know in the comment section, also please feel free to use the comment section to discuss the current country and any sites or books that would help people with picking a recipe :)

Tunisia Round-up

Wow, is it December 9th already?  I'm sorry to be posting this round-up so late!  Time always escapes me this time of the year and I'm always wishing for more.  Anyway, on to our Tunisian dishes, only two, but they sure do look delicious!

First up we have Janet at the taste space with a beautiful dish, Tunisian Vegetable Ragout with Quinoa, that looks so hearty and filling, just perfect for this time of the year!

                                                                                ~~~

Next up we have a gorgeous dish of Shakshuka, a Tunisian breakfast with eggs cooked in a tomato sauce with vegetables, yum! Thanks to Corina at Searching for Spice for this Tunisian pick :)

Our December destination is Belgium and we are welcome to suggestions for February and beyond so pick somewhere fun and post a comment with your country suggestions!

Korea Round-Up and November Destination...

Welcome to our Korea Round-up! I think October must have quickly snuck past everyone (I know it did me!) since we only have three entries, but, no worries -- they look plenty delicious for our taste of Korea :)

First up we have a beautiful fresh dish, "Raw Mushroom "Bul Go Go" Lettuce Wrap," courtesy of Janet at the taste space.

~~~~~~~~~

Next up is a more traditional "Steak Bulgogi" from Corina at Searching for Spice, looks delicious!  Glad you finally got to try cooking a Korean dish :)

~~~~~~~

Last but certainly not least is Peggy at Pantry Revisited with her first try at "Korean Roast Chicken," so glad you liked it and will make it again! 

~~~~~~~

That concludes our round-up of Korean dishes!  Janet at the taste space has suggested Tunisia as our November destination so get ready to do some googling and find a Tunisian dish to try.  Sounds like a fun challenge.  I was thinking it might be nice to have the next few months of destinations picked in advance and posted in the side bar, so if anyone has any suggestions please post them in a comment and we can add the to the itinerary!  I was thinking Belgium so I will toss that one in for December, let's all try to come up with some fun destinations for 2012!

My Kitchen My World is always open to new participants, all you have to do it cook and blog about a recipe from our country of the month (November = Tunisia) and leave a url link to your blog post in the comments section on this post and I will add it to the round-up at the start of the next month.   

Take care,

Andrea

Thailand Round-Up and October Destination

Welcome to our Thailand Round-Up!

First up we have a colorful dish of New Potato, Cauliflower, Chickpea and Green Bean Thai Curry with a Cucumber and Coriander Salsa from Janet at the taste space.  What a great start!

~~~

Next up is another wonderful dish from Janet, a bowl of Thai Coconut Corn Stew, yum! It looks so warm and comforting. 

~~~

Our third entry is from a new traveler, Shaheen at Allotment 2 Kitchen, welcome!   Shaheen made Yellow Curry Cabbage with Mushrooms, it looks delicious!  Thanks for sharing :)

~~~

And finally, over at Nummy Kitchen, I tried my hand at some Thai Curry Noodles with Tofu, which turned out to be a perfect lunch!

~~~

Not a big round-up this time but a huge thank you to everyone who participated!  All of the dishes look wonderful!

Janet at the taste space has suggested Korea as our October destination, doesn't that sound fun?  So please make a Korean dish and post a link to your creation as a comment on this post by October 31st.  New members are always welcome, just jump right in with a Korean dish if you would like :) I can't wait to see what flavors we come up with, these round-ups always provide so much cooking inspiration to me and I hope they do for you as well.

If anyone has any country suggestions, please post them as a comment.  We are always looking for new countries to visit!

Take care,

Andrea

England and Spain Round-up & September Destination -- Thailand

Welcome to our England and Spain Round-up! England was our July destination and Spain was our August destination. I hope everyone had a wonderful summer and are ready for some cooler (well, for most of us) fall weather. Let's get started with some delicious food!

England Round-up...

First up we have Corina at Searching for Spice with our first rendition of Toad in the Hole, a traditional British dish of sausages baked in Yorkshire pudding batter, looks very comforting!

                                                                      ~~~~~~~~~~~~

Next up at Unchained Kitchen is CJW with CJW with Beef & Turnip Pasties, be sure to check out her delicious pasties and funny story about kidney pie :)

                                                                  ~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Here we have another version of the traditional Toad in the Hole, shared by Peggy at Pantry Revisited, doesn't that look yummy? What a great photo!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Aren't these crumpets just perfect?  They were made by Margaret at Tea and Scones, who also made a full afternoon tea, including crumpets, Scotch eggs, cucumber sandwiches, and banana tea loaf, all of which look amazing! Thank you, Margaret, for suggesting England!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Janet at the taste space has treated us with Cauliflower, Spinach, and Chickpea Balti; reminding us of the diverse cuisine of England, looks like a delicious dinner to me!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

That concludes our England round-up, what a selection!  Everything looks wonderful! Now on to our August destination: Spain, here we go...

A bright and beautiful Mango Gazpacho from Janet at the taste space is our first entry for destination Spain, looks like summer in a bowl, yum!

                                                                 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Margaret at Tea and Scones is our second traveler for destination Spain and she shares with us two delicious Spanish dishes, Buñuelos de Cordoba, pictured above, are delicate fritters from southwestern Spain, yum!  Also check her site for a traditional Spanish omelette, Tortilla de Patatas, that looks just perfect.

                                                             ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Only two travelers for Spain, looks like August was a busy month for everyone!  No worries, on to September :)   But before then, an extra post from Janet at the taste space, with her entry for destination Greece (back in May) -- a flavorful dish of Greek Baked Beans / Gigantes Plaki, looks great!

                                         
Thanks to everyone for cooking along! 

Our September destination will be Thailand, thanks to Janet for that suggestion!  Get ready to try something new and find a Thai dish to try, post it on your blog and leave a comment on this post with a link to your My Kitchen My World September destination Thailand post!  Can't wait to see what everyone comes up with :)

Take care,

Andrea
