Let's take a look at a few dishes that you can prepare quickly and easily, even if you don't have a lot of food in your fridge. Moreover, they all turn out to be satisfying.
Idea number 1. Omelet
You will definitely need the following ingredients: eggs (4 pieces); water (100 ml); salt to taste.
Beat eggs until smooth. You can use milk as a liquid to make the dish more tender. If you want to get a dense omelet - add a little flour (2 tsp) to the eggs and water.
Depending on what you have in your refrigerator and what your taste is, you can add to the egg mass and other foods. Greens, tomatoes, cheese, pieces of sausages or boiled sausages, bacon, mushrooms and much more are perfect. Feel free to experiment.
Idea number 2. Paste
Almost every person has pasta in the house. But there is a difference between a sticky flour mass and an appetizing paste. First, you must boil the pasta properly. To do this, wait until the water boils, add a little salt (usually 1 teaspoon per liter of water) and add pasta.
The standard boil time is 10 minutes, but it depends more on the type of pasta you are using. The thinner they are, the shorter the cooking time should be. Pasta should not stick together and fall apart after cooking. Better if they are slightly hard.
When the pasta is cooked, you can proceed to the next step - the filling. Look again at what food you have. Excellent options for simple fillings are ketchup, tomato paste, olive oil with any good seasoning, butter and cheese, and soy sauce. If possible, it is good to add pieces of toasted minced meat or stew to the pasta.
Idea number 3. Thin pancakes
You will need: flour (4 cups); eggs (1-2 pieces); water; salt and sugar to taste.
Beat flour, eggs and water until smooth. There should be enough water so that the resulting dough resembles liquid sour cream (11% fat). Put a little vegetable oil in the pan and wait until it gets hot. Otherwise, the pancakes will burn during frying. When the pan is ready, tilt it at an angle of 50-60 degrees and start pouring the dough in a thin stream so that it is evenly distributed over the entire area of the pan.
When the thin pancakes are ready, they can be eaten as they are or the filling can be prepared. Get creative again. You can add fried minced meat, cheese with herbs, caviar oil or pasta, berries, cottage cheese to pancakes.
Hopefully knowing the recipes for these simple dishes will help you stay hungry, even if you haven't been to the grocery store for a long time.
