Vanilla Parfait

I cannot recall where I found this recipe for a vanilla parfait, but I love it as it is easy to make and tastes delicious.

Ingredients:

• 3 egg yolks
• 50 ml water
• 75 caster sugar
• 1 table spoon vanilla extract
• 150 ml double cream

Put the water with the sugar into a saucepan and stir it over low heat until the sugar has dissolved. Boil the sugar water and cook for about 7-10 minutes. Cook until the water starts to thicken (syrup).
Whip the egg yolks with the vanilla extract until it has more then doubled in volume.
Add the syrup and let the mixture cool down.
Beat the cream and fold it with the egg/syrup mixture.
Put everything into the freezer.

Serve with fruits, chocolate or anything you like. YUM!

Guacamole

For everyone who loves avocado and especially guacamole, here are the ingedients for our favorite recipe:

• 2 big avocados (very ripe)
• approx. 10 cherry tomatoes (cut into small pieces as you like)
• 1/2 red onion
• Juice of one lime
• 1 fresh chili
• 3 table spoons yogurt
• Coriander
• Pinch of sugar
• Salt for your taste

Mix everything together using a fork, cover with clean foil and let it rest in the fridge for about an hour. Serve with bread or tortilla chips.

Enjoy!
