Equipment / prep
- Pot (to cook vegetables/tomato base)
- Stove
- She prefers electric and mentions trouble with gas
- Cast iron pan (to heat butter and transfer the mixture)
- Oven (in her new kitchen)
- Bread baked earlier, plus she uses the oven for that too
Method (technique + timing)
- Chop capsicum and add it to a pot to cook.
- Add to the pot:
- Crushed Italian tomatoes
- Cumin
- Harissa
- Salt
- Stir-fry / cook on the stove, adding oil.
- While it cooks, heat butter in a cast iron pan.
- Transfer the cooked tomato/veg mixture into the cast iron pan.
- Add eggs (4).
- Top with feta.
- Substitution: use olive oil instead of butter if avoiding dairy.
- Bake in the oven for ~6 minutes.
- Doneness cue: eggs become “so soft… jiggly” with yolks “perfectly cooked”—not too hard, not too soft (described like an al dente yolk).
Serving / eating
- She eats immediately and describes it as:
- very protein-forward
- “really good”
Chef tips / mistakes she calls out
- Safety/attention: warns about burns and urges careful chopping (“slow and easy, you can do this”).
- Consistency goal: eggs should be soft/jiggly with properly set yolks (“not too hard, not too soft”).
Lunch: King salmon + Dutch cream potatoes (+ leftovers theme)
She doesn’t provide a full step-by-step recipe in subtitles, but does give selection/serving guidance.
Ingredients (selection guidance)
- King salmon / king ora salmon
- She notes it becomes “SO soft” when cooked
- Dutch cream potatoes
- For a creamy mash without excess dairy fat
- Needs only a little butter plus almond milk for creamy/silky texture
- Leftovers mentioned later (as part of her plate/theme):
- Tempeh
- Eggplant
- Capsicum
- Squash
- Zucchini
- plus sauce and mash
Method
- No detailed step-by-step provided beyond general “cook it” references and that these items appear on her plate.
- Doneness cue:
- King salmon → described as much softer, likely because it’s fattier.
Chef tips / substitutions
- For creamy mashed potatoes without lots of dairy fat:
- choose Dutch cream potatoes
- use little butter + almond milk
- Texture/taste note:
- “Go for king salmon… they are a lot fatter.”
Dessert: Panna cotta (ombre-style for the video)
Ingredients (what she mentions)
- Panna cotta
- Berries (topping)
- mainly for aesthetics: “whole point… just for aesthetic reasons”
- Almond milk
- described as “just almond milk” and soft/creamy (amount not stated)
- No exact sweetener/gelatin quantities mentioned in subtitles.
Equipment / prep
- She says it’s already made: “I made it already, it’s in the fridge”
- Ombre presentation is specifically mentioned.
Method (timing/technique)
- Not fully described as a recipe, but she emphasizes:
- soft and creamy
- jiggly
- She tried to make it prettier with an ombré look; otherwise she would make it one color.
Serving
- She advises not to eat it immediately after dinner to avoid indigestion:
- eating right after can cause indigestion from mixing foods
- She eats only a little now, and a little later.
Variations
- With berries: only for aesthetics; it “doesn’t need berries”
- Without berries: still tastes “as good” without them
Dinner: Tempeh + roasted/oven sheet-pan vegetables + sweet sesame sauce
Ingredients (from subtitles)
- Tempeh (she chooses tempeh over tofu)
- Vegetables:
- Potatoes (“midnight blue potatoes”)
- Eggplant (leftover from lunch)

- Chop everything she has on the plate.
- Put everything in the oven.
- Serve with sweet sesame sauce, adjusting to taste (“add more if you want it more tasty”).
