THE BOWL OF FOUR

Preparation time: 40+ min

Difficulty: medium


Serves 2


Ingredients for baby chard with buckwheat:

  • ⅓ cup buckwheat

  • bunch of baby Swiss chard leaves

  • 2 tbs mustard

  • 1 tbs tahini

  • 1 tbs capers

  • 2 tbs cashew nuts

  • 1 tbs molasses yeast flakes

  • salt and pepper

  • water



Soak buckwheat for at least one hour, enough to extract the slime. Then drain it and rinse it under the running water. Put it in a bowl and add the chard without the hard part. To cut the chard, place the leaves one on top of another, roll them into a tube, and cut the leaves very thinly. Mix them with buckwheat and prepare the dressing. Add mustard, tahini, capers, cashew nuts, molasses yeast flakes, salt, pepper, and a little bit of water to a blender and blend until smooth. Add water as needed. Pour the dressing over buckwheat and mix everything well. Save until serving.


Ingredients for cabbage salad:

  • 1 cup sun-dried tomatoes

  • ½ small fresh white cabbage

  • fresh herbs such as marjoram, oregano, thyme

  • few prunes

  • salt and pepper


Pour hot water over sun-dried tomatoes and soak them until they are soft. Drain the water, chop the tomatoes, and add cabbage sliced with a mandoline slicer. Add chopped herbs, thinly sliced prunes, salt, and pepper, and mix well. You can mix everything with your hands, as the cabbage will be softer that way.


Ingredients for tomato salad:

  • 2 cups fresh mini plum tomatoes

  • few ribs of celery

  • white part of spring onion

  • small bunch of fresh basil

  • salt and pepper



Cut plum tomatoes to your liking, add thinly sliced celery ribs, chopped onion, and fresh basil. Season and mix well.

Ingredients for serving:

  • 7 oz/200 g brown portobello mushrooms

  • 7 oz/200 g marinated tofu

  • 3 tbs roasted pumpkin seeds


Thinly slice the mushrooms and marinate them like you did tofu. Drain tofu and mushrooms, add chopped herbs which were also marinated and gently stir. Just before serving, stir in roasted pumpkin seeds. This way they will remain crispy.


Place all the ingredients neatly into a bowl and serve.


Use your imagination and tailor the recipe to your taste. Enjoy creativity and Bon Appetit.
