Kashmiri Rogan Josh lamb curry
I am a whore for chili, so when I got my hands on some Kashmiri chilies, and we’re in the middle of lamb season here in Norway, there was only one thing I could make: Rogan Josh, just like my Viking forebears used to make!
Tasty AF home made naan with nigella seeds
Warm from the oven, soft, pillowy, slightly chewy naan, flavored with nigella seeds, and brushed with ghee. That is pure happiness on a plate. We eat a lot of naan, both with curries and dahls, so this is a tried and true recipe!

Norwegian Fiskesuppe fish soup with fish balls
Fiskesuppe is one of the most iconic dishes in Norwegian coastal cuisine, and this is my take on the Norwegian classic fish soup. It’s quick and easy to make, and so delicious I just had it for my birthday!
Norwegian rye breaded pollock & creamy cauliflower
This super simple, yet elegant dish plays on different textures, with crispy rye breading, juicy fish and creamy cauliflower as well as the peppery flavor pairing between cauliflower, field lettuce, and a subtle hint of mustard.
Norwegian gourmet hazelnut crusted cod on creamy mushrooms
This is one of the easiest recipes I can think of, yet I would be very happy to be served something like this on a restaurant. It’s made in under 30 minutes, so what’s not to love about it?
Gourmet beer batter fish & triple cooked chips
This dish is insane; What’s crispy is so crispy it’s practically impossible to keep a normal conversation going while you eat, the fish is so juicy it’s unheard of, and the fluffiness of the interior of the chips is out of this world. Like I said: Insane.
Norwegian Sviskekompott prune compote with port wine
Prune compote has always been a favorite for us, and is as classic a Scandinavian dessert as they come. This old school dessert is also incredibly quick and easy to make.
Authentic Danish Skipperlabskovs potatoes & beef stew
There are very few things that beats this wonderful, warming potatoes and meat stew on a cold winter day. Made with simple ingredients, this one pot stew can be made by anyone, and you will have people begging for more!
