Paine cu branza / Cheese bread

                 Reteta o am de la mama care locuieste in Italia. La ei se numeste ''Pizza sarata'' dar eu as numi-o mai degraba  ''paine cu branza'' sau focaccia daca o facem intr-o tava plata. Este excelenta pentru sandvisuri.

              I know this recipe from my mother who lives in Italy. They call ''Salty Pizza'' but I would call it '' cheese bread'' or focaccia if we do in a tray . It is excellent for sandwiches.


Ingrediente / ingredients:
- 500 g faina - 500 g flour
- 150 g branza sarata - 150 g salty cheese
- 3-4 linguri de cascaval ras - 3-4 tablespoons of grated cheese
- 50 g drojdie proaspata - 50 g fresh yeast
- 1/2 cana lapte - 1/2 cup milk
- 1/2 cana ulei - 1/2 cup oil
- 50 g margarina sau untura - 50 g margarine or lard
- 4 oua - 4 eggs
- oregano - oregano
- o lingurita de sare - A teaspoon of salt

         Punem faina intr-un castron mai adanc. Adaugam branza rasa, ouale batute bine, margarina sau untura (ce aveti prin frigider, merge si unt), sare si oregano.
         Laptele il incalzim putin, dizolvam drojdia si adaugam compozitia peste faina.

             Put flour in a deep bowl. Add grated cheese, well beaten eggs, margarine or lard (or butter), salt and oregano.
          Heat the milk slightly, dissolve yeast and add flour mixture over.

            Daca aluatul iese prea moale, mai adaugam faina. Daca aluatul iese prea tare, adaugam putin lapte. Adaugam uleiul treptat si framantam pana aluatul nu se mai lipeste de mana.

          If the dough comes out too soft, we add the flour. If the dough out too much, add a little milk. Add oil gradually and knead until dough is no longer sticky.

     Ungem tavile cu margarina, untura sau unt si impartim aluatul. Nu trebuie sa depaseasca jumatate din inaltimea tavii pentru ca va creste si va da pe-afara.

   Brush Trays  with margarine, lard or butter and add the dough. Should not exceed half the height tray because  it will grow and will give out.

     Lasam la crescut in tavi si apoi bagam tavile la cuptor la foc mic pana se rumneste frumos.

           Let it rise in the pan and then stuffing trays in the oven at low heat to bake.

Le scoatem pe un tocator de lemn si le acoperim cu un prosop de bucatarie.
Se serveste fierbinte, nu veti rezista mirosului , sau rece.

Pofta buna!

Them out on a wooden cutting board and cover with a kitchen towel.

Serve hot, you will not resist at the flavor, or cold.

Bon appetite!

Clatite americane cu dulceata de mure / Pancakes with blackberry jam

Ingrediente / ingredients:
- 3 oua - 3 eggs
- esenta de vanilie - Vanilla essence
- faina - flour
- lapte - milk
- dulceata - jam

          Intr-un castron amestecam ouale cu laptele, esenta de vanilie si faina. Compozitia trebuie sa iasa destul de groasa, mai groasa decat cea a clatitelor obisnuite.
          In unele retete se pune si zahar, dar m-am gandit ca dulceata este de ajuns.

       Mix eggs with milk, vanilla and flour  in a bowl . Composition must come pretty thick, thicker than the regular pancakes.
          In some recipes i saw that they added sugar, but I thought it sweet enough the jam.

Incingem o tigaie pentru clatite si adaugam cate un polonic de compozitie, incepand din mijloc. Nu am adaugat ulei sau unt.

Heat a pan for pancakes and add one ladle of composition. I didn't add oil or butter.

Le scoatem pe o farfurie si adaugam dulceata pe fiecare.

Put them on a plate and add jam on each.

Formam un turnulet si le servim imediat.

Form a tower and serve them immediately.

Bon appetit!
