Hosted an Eurasian theme lunch popup at home yesterday . The objective was to cook at home and share food from the continent of Europe , some of the dishes are fusion of Asian and European culinary tradition prevalent in South East Asia. Some of the dishes I had cooked before and blogged. It was a warm table inspired by comforting dishes across Europe and Eurasia. Food meant to be shared, savoured and enjoyed slowly.

Bacon Puffs

Flaky puff pastry filled with smoky bacon and herbs.

These bacon puffs are delectable with homemade filo sheets , brushed with olive oil stacked one over another and filled with bacon and cheese.

Steamed Rice – Light and fragrant rice served alongside the mains.

Maultaschen

German dumplings filled with meat and spinach or cottage cheese and spinach.

These are kind of pasta ravioli from Germany stuffed with spinach and minced lamb served with meat broth in hotpot . According to local folklore, Cistercian monks at the Maulbronn Monastery invented the dish during the 17th century. By hiding the meat inside dough and greens, they could trick God into thinking they were not eating meat during the strict fasting of Lent.

This is originally a dish from Hungary cooked with Hungarian peppers to impart that distinct bright color, I prepared with red bell pepper based sauce enriched with heavy ceam and sour cream and topped with mashed potatoes.

Inspired from my blogger friend Azlin Bloor this recipe is inspired from her family recipe “Eurasian Beef Smore“, this dish is cooked with mutton ( Goat meat) with whole spices , vegetables marinated in light soy sauce , dark spoy sauce , sugar and vinegar
