Dutch meal made from unlikely ingredients. Traditional salt herring salad made with lomos de bonito from Spain. Bitterballlen (veal stew croquettes) made from a roux mixed with a tin of commercial beef soup and cooked in the air fryer.

They look the part! How was the taste?
The bitterballen were the right texture, but next time I need to salt the commercial tin of beef soup which was a bit sweet. Next time will use a meatier beef ghoulash or beef pie filling and maybe with added gelatine as the recipes for homemade bitterballen specify use of a lot gelatinous bones for making the stew. Having a firmer coagulated stew makes handling the croquette batter easier.
The lomos de bonito salad was perfect in terms of taste. Fiddler than maatjes haring as it needs skin and a few bones to be removed.1 -
Ringing in the new year:
(a) What better way to greet the new year with a retro-style cheese fondue platter to watch the celebration?
(b) "Soup Season" continues, this time with a red cabbage/carrot/lentil soup, all vegetarian other than chicken stock, to chase away the cheese indulgence of New Year's Eve. Two pics: (1) prepped and starting to cook (60 minutes) and (2) done. As an alternate serving, we also topped a bowl of this stewy hearty soup with a couple of last evenings turkey meatballs from the fondue table.
Happy New Year, everyone!

Love Rendang!
We use commercial Rendang paste. Primataste is the best (also according to my Singaporean colleagues), but hard to get in the UK. Must remember to get some next time were are in the Netherlands. So far, of the brands available in the UK we like the Dollee brand. No MSG, only spices but quite hot. If you want to tame the fireiness add, coconut milk.
Freezes well so suitable for batch cooking for easy weekday meals.2 -
Sounds good! Yes I bulk buy in The Netherlands. ☺2

Brined herring with onions and gherkins. Smoked sausage, gratin dauphinoise, salad of tomato, watermelon and basil. The sausage and herring came from the German Deli and were both considerably saltier than the Dutch variants we are used to.
