What to cook in the country? Simple recipes for fast and tasty food

Families who want to live outside the city from spring to autumn cold face the problem of catering.

Those who have been living there for more than a year do not see much difficulty in this, but a beginner will think about what can be cooked in the country.

In the presence of a vegetable garden, an orchard, there is nothing supernatural in this matter. nine0003

A lot of different dishes can be made from a minimum set of products from the store and grown vegetables and fruits that you pick directly from the garden and trees.

We will give examples of the simplest and most delicious dishes for summer cottages for all occasions - from an ordinary breakfast to a festive picnic, which will also be healthy!

Where do you get the ingredients for delicious meals in the country?

Let's see what's on your property.

The most important food source , which every summer resident must have, is a garden. Everything that is in it can be used. If you plan to live outside the city from spring to autumn, then try to choose a set of cultivated species so that you receive food during each period of your stay.

The next source is fruit trees and shrubs . For the most part, they can only be used in summer and autumn, when the fruits and berries ripen.

Long-term residence also gives you a great chance to keep pets that are easy to care for, namely poultry - chickens, geese, turkeys. Just a couple of chickens and a small do-it-yourself chicken coop will allow you to always have fresh eggs. And in some cases, tender poultry meat. nine0003

Country air cannot be compared with smoky city air, as well as nature, which can become another source of food in the country. Yes, yes, do not be surprised, gathering is an ancient occupation, forgotten by us. Once upon a time, in childhood, your grandmother cooked you soup from ordinary young nettles, and some roots are perfect for making sauces and seasonings. And if there is a forest nearby, then berries and mushrooms will further diversify your diet.

And, of course, a store, because not everything can be grown in a garden or harvested in the forest. Flour, sunflower oil, sugar, salt and other similar products must be replenished periodically in the country kitchen. nine0003

What can be cooked in the country?

There is always a job outside the city, but you also want to relax. Therefore, standing all day at the stove will not have a great desire for any hostess. We will look at options for dishes that can be prepared quickly and easily.

In the spring we usually move to the dacha, when the stable warm weather sets in. At this point, fresh greens appear - green onion feathers, arugula, spinach, lettuce, etc. They are perfect for preparing salads, stewed vegetables. nine0003

Early cabbage can be added to the list, later young potatoes of early varieties will appear, which, boiled with dill, will appeal to everyone. And before that, you can use last year's stocks. Well, what else can be made from potatoes, we think that it’s not worth listing, you already know the simplest dishes from it.

There aren't many vegetables in the spring, so pasta with chicken is an easy and quick dish. For breakfast, you can cook scrambled eggs, scrambled eggs, etc. Moreover, these dishes can be made in different ways, adding new ingredients all the time: ham, cheese, herbs, various spices. nine0003

Here's one recipe that doesn't take long . This is pizza for the lazy, which is cooked in a pan. First, prepare the dough (liquid): 4 tbsp. l. sour cream, 4 tbsp. l. mayonnaise, 2 eggs, 9 tbsp. l. flour (no slide). Pour into a greased pan and put any filling on top, pour over with mayonnaise and sprinkle with cheese thickly. We put it on the stove and close the lid. The pizza is ready when the cheese is melted.

Tea based on raspberry twigs and young currant leaves is a wonderful fragrant drink. Later, pharmacy chamomile will bloom, marigolds, decoctions of which are very useful. nine0003

In summer, the assortment is richer and, accordingly, the food for the cottage is even more varied . It is very easy to prepare vegetable stew for dinner. First, fry the onion, then add finely chopped zucchini and eggplant, which we fry for a couple more minutes, then you can add sour cream and simmer for about 8 minutes. After that, add green peas and stew and simmer for another 3 minutes. Sprinkle the finished dish with herbs.

You can also fry eggplants cut into wheels (you must first soak them in salt water for 30 minutes). Sprinkle garlic on top. You can also fry zucchini, but it is better to dip them in an egg and flour before frying. You can also make pancakes from zucchini. nine0003

And what a delicious borsch is made from young beetroots and their juicy tops! Also at the dacha in the summer, okroshka, a refrigerator goes well.

Numerous gifts of the forest - berries and mushrooms - will allow you to cook pies with berry filling, soup and fried potatoes with mushrooms, compotes.

Cucumber tomato salad is generally out of competition in terms of cooking speed. Fresh strawberries from the garden, currants can be ground with sugar and you will have a wonderful dessert for the festive table or for breakfast. You can also add ice cream to it. nine0003

Homemade yoghurt is delicious . It is enough just to mix any berries, sugar and fat sour cream.

Apples ripen in autumn . Charlotte is a kind of symbol of autumn.
