Chicken Enchiladas With Tomato And Chili Salsa

As I was craving something with a little bit of a kick to it, I decided to make chicken enchiladas with tomato and chili salsa for dinner recently.

I found the recipe in the Norwegian cookbook called Trines Mat by Trine Sandberg, and I think it was fairly easy to make. Okay, so we might need to focus a little bit once the tortillas are filled up and needed to be "transported" into the baking dish so it (the tortilla) doesn't fall apart, but that's not a big issue really.

I did find the enchiladas both tasty and filling, which is a good thing, and I think the chicken enchiladas could easily be made for Taco Tuesday, or for that matter, the Norwegian "tradition" of Taco Friday.

Acehnese Chicken With Curry Leaves

As there was a combined Asian and Middle-Eastern grocery store that has finally opened in the small coastal town where I live, it made it a lot easier for me finding some non-western cooking ingredients that the "regular" grocery stores and supermarkets don't have. One of those things being curry leaves, which meant I could finally make Acehnese Chicken with Curry Leaves from the cookbook named Coconut & Sambal by Lara Lee. While this was perhaps a slightly more complicated and time-consuming recipe, it was still fairly easy to make. Even with A LOT of chili in it, it didn't taste too overpowering spicy hot, but I do enjoy when the food has a kick to it. I can admit I'm more used to Thai, Chinese, and Indian food, so I do enjoy trying something a bit different from time to time, and I'll probably make this one again some time.

Thai-Inspired Chicken Soup

As it's autumn and thus soup season, I looked through my cookbooks and decided I wanted to make a Thai-inspired chicken soup I found in a Norwegian cookbook named "Matmisjon - Ekte mat fra ti matbloggere" edited by Hanne Stensvold. The recipe I used was one of those that's fairly easy to follow, and the only adjustment I needed to do was not using as much stock/water, as I didn't quite have enough room in the pot, but it produced several portions of soup anyway, so it wasn't a big deal really. The soup itself had some warmth and kick to it, as I used both red curry paste and a chopped chili in it, which is rather nice on a cold autumn day. A big bonus is that as it's made from scratch, rather than being one of those soup-mix things, is that it was a bit filling too (I feel that a lot of times, those soup mixes doesn't quite cut it). I dare say this is one of those recipes I'd love to make again.

Panko Crusted Cod

Sometimes I'm craving a bit of seafood, so I found a recipe for panko crusted cod with a salad in a Norwegian cookbook titled "Karlas kjøkken - hverdagsmat på menyen" (roughly translated as Karlas Kitchen - Weekday Food On The Menu). Both the fish and the salad was easy enough to make, but I didn't bother making the remoulade as I had some sour cream in the fridge I wanted to use up before it expired. Also, I made some homemade mashed potatoes to make the dish a little bit more filling. Overall I dare say it was a nice meal. Not the most spicy by any means, but it was good nontheless.
