This is the famous Choucroute recipe with sauerkraut, sausages and pork. This dish is mostly served in the winter period because it is heavy. It is traditionally made with sauerkraut, three different kind of sausages and smoked pork, served together with boiled potatoes. If you are still hungry after this meal, than you didn't eat a real choucroute.

A homemade classical creamy cauliflower gratin. This dish fits very well as a side dish for your holiday celebrations, or as a main dish in the week. The gratin can easily be a substitute to a potato gratin. It fits any kind of meat, chicken or fish.
This is a homemade remake of the traditional French Bûche de Noël. Instead of a big log it's made in small single portions. The fun part is to do the decoration on top of the cake, and sense you have many small logs you can decorate them all different from each other if you like.
This is something between a lasagna and a classic potato gratin. It's easy and quick to prepare, and you have both potato, vegetables and soya mince in the gratin, so you don't need to prepare a side dish. It is possible to change the soya mice to normal minced beef.... but it will not be a vegetarian gratin anymore...
