Funchoza with squid
Andrei Bova:
“The beauty of this dish, like all of our Five Dinners project, is that it can be prepared very quickly. We buy funchoza in advance, and it is in our closet. And out of necessity, when the guests came, they quickly took it out, soaked it in boiling water for 2 minutes – and we have excellent noodles ready! So it is with squid. For example, I always have a squid in the freezer – for unexpected guests. Better to take the commander’s, it is now in any store, it is already peeled. Efforts should be made at a minimum. That is, I took the squid out of the freezer, put it in the microwave in the defrost mode. After 15-20 minutes, you have thawed, peeled, delicious squid and the dish cooks very quickly! During this time, the funchose will just infuse. Add vegetables, sauce – the dish is ready! Very tasty, no worse than in any Asian restaurant, and in addition to its taste, the squid also perfectly saturates. All households and guests will definitely be full and happy! “

Achma
Andrei Bova:
“With seafood sorted out, another alternative to meat is, of course, cheese. Cheese and cottage cheese are delicious! I always have cottage cheese and cheese in my fridge. I suggest the achma dish – this is a kind of Georgian lasagna. Honestly, I love this dish much more than kebab! More than chicken chakhokhbili! Although it has only three ingredients: dough, cheese, you can add cottage cheese and an egg. A very satisfying dish. Let’s not say that it is light, but it is easily absorbed due to fermented milk products. You can also eat achma cold. That is, if we ate it in the evening with stretching hot cheese, then in the morning, if it has stayed and cooled down, we can eat it with hot tea. Also very tasty. Such a versatile dish will definitely not leave anyone indifferent! “

Andrei Bova:
“And eggplant is a fleshy vegetable. It is highly prized in many cuisines of the world. In Chinese cuisine, where there are a lot of vegetarian dishes, it is constantly put in, just replacing the meat. And also tofu cheese – soy cheese. A very interesting and simple recipe. Oil is needed at least for frying eggplants. Eggplants are the head of everything! “

Tuna envelopes
Andrei Bova:
“Another interesting recipe is canned tuna envelopes. Tuna is sometimes even called sea meat. Real tuna is hard to find, so the recipe will be with canned tuna. The product of my childhood is extremely undervalued now, in my opinion. Although canned tuna has been cooked, it still contains a lot of vitamins. Honestly, I always have several cans of tuna in the closet in my kitchen. Because it is a versatile product. You can make salads, snacks, and pâtés with it. Very tasty. And the lifesaver of any housewife is frozen puff pastry. You can do anything with it, from desserts to fish or meat envelopes. “

Andrei Bova:
“Mackerel is a very fatty, fleshy fish with a distinct structure that can easily compete with meat in its nutritional value and richness. It is with chilled, fresh mackerel that a casserole with tomatoes, onions, cheese is prepared. Try my recipe because it’s a hearty, complete meal, and inexpensive. Now even chilled mackerel can be found!
Don’t get hung up on the same dishes you cook for your family. Meat is good, but you can always find a tasty alternative. See Five Dinners. Together we will succeed quickly, tasty, inexpensively and no worse than in a restaurant! “
