This hot summer weather calls for light and cold dishes. Just like this refreshing honeydew melon and fennel salad with pistachios. It so delicious and will keep you cool in this heat. The pairing of fennel and melon is really amazing. There’s the cold sweetness of the honeydew melon paired with the aroma of fennel. Pistacchios add some crunch and a bit of aleppo pepper adds some a bit of spice. This recipe is really simple and a perfect summer lunch or serve it as a side to your summer bbq. It will definitely wow your dinner guests! Make sure to buy a firm and ripe honeydew melon and a smaller size fennel bulb. I prefer using ready roasted and salted pistachios for some extra salty flavour. As you know from some of my other recipes, I love using Aleppo pepper. Basically Aleppo pepper is dried chili without the pips. I usually buy it on my favourite market here in Hamburg but you can buy it online, here for example!

The recipe is not only perfect for all fructosefree foodies, also if you are on a healthy diet. It’s full of vitamins and minerals and will give you a little health boost in this summer heat.

I would love to see your take on this recipe! Just comment at the bottom of the page or tag me on Instagram as @fifthfloorkitchen and use #fifthfloorkitchen hashtag.

I’ve never made a creamier risotto than this creamy dreamy prawn risotto. It’s so delicious and I’m absolutely sure you won’t mind the “not so traditional” secret ingredient. But more to that later. If you follow my blog you know I’m a risotto lover. They come in all colours from vibrant green pea and herb risotto, to pink beetroot risotto or this elegant chanterelle risotto. Just search for “risotto” and you will find even more recipes! So, today I’m sharing this creamy dreamy prawn risotto with you. It’s so tasty and really reminds me of a holiday in Italy. My secret ingredient is Mascarpone and I use it although it’s not a traditional risotto ingredient. Well, I don’t care and as soon as you try this recipe you will totally agree with me. The ingredient list is pretty basic apart from the tiger prawns. Make sure you buy fresh, raw tiger prawns with shell. We are going to need the shell for our stock. The rest of the ingredients are the same as for any other normal risotto. As you know I can’t eat onions and garlic because of my fructose malabsorption. This risotto really doesn’t need onions or garlic anyway, but if you like just add some with the carrots and parsnips.

Share your take on this creamy dreamy risotto or any other of my recipes! Tag me on Instagram as @fifthfloorkitchen and use #fifthfloorkitchen hashtag. I love seeing your pics! By the way have you seen that you can create your own watchlist with all of your favourite recipes from the blog?! Give it a try!

Creamy dreamy prawn risotto

  • 500 gram tiger prawns with shell and heads
  • 2 lemons
  • 2 tbsp tomato paste
  • 250 ml white wine
  • 2 carrots
  • 1 parsnip
  • 2 celery stalk
  • 2-3 sprigs thyme
  • 200 gram arborio rice
  • olive oil
  • 120 gram mascarpone
  • 1 small bunch parsley
  • salt
  • pepper
  • chili flakes
  1. Peel carrots and parsnip and cut into 1 cm cubes. Wash and slice celery stalks into 1 cm slices. 

  2. Remove shell and heads from prawns. Heat up 2 tbsp of olive oil in a large sauce pan. Add the heads and shells and cook about 5 minutes until bright red and fragrant. Now add the tomato paste, give it a good stir and cook until it starts to stick to the bottom of the sauce pan. Deglaze with half of the white wine and give it a good stir. Add half of the carrot, parsnip and celery cubes, thyme sprigs, peel of half a lemon, juice of 1 lemon and about 1000 ml water. Let it simmer for about 40 minutes. 

  3. When ready strain stock trough a sieve and put aside. You should have about 500-600 ml prawn stock. 

  4. For the risotto heat up 2 tbsp olive oil in a pot and add your veggie cubes. After 3 minutes add the Arborio rice and let it steam for a minute. Deglaze with the rest of the white wine and bring it briefly to boil. Add some of your prawn stock so that the rice is completely covered. Keep on gentle stirring your risotto – don’t go away, keep stirring! After all your prawn stock has been soaked up add some more of it. Keep on with this procedure until your risotto is creamy (takes about 15-20 minutes). If you run out of prawn stock and your risotto isn’t ready yet, add plain water. 

  5. When your risotto rice is almost ready add half of the mascarpone and keep on stirring gently. Now add the tiger prawns, stir in well and let them cook for 2 minutes. Season to taste your creamy dreamy risotto with pepper, salt and chili flakes to taste. 

  6. Mix the rest of the mascarpone with 2 tbsp of water and season to taste with salt an pepper. Wash, pad dry and chop the parsley. 

  7. Divide the risotto to your plates, add some mascarpone, sprinkle with parsley and serve with a wedge of lemon. Bon appetit!

I’ve been giving matcha a few chances lately and I’ve to admit it got me! I like the vibrant green powder as a spice for savoury recipes but also it’s really interesting what it does to sweet desserts. Also another new thing to me is tapioca. Just like matcha I really avoided it. I don’t like matcha lattes and I definitely don’t like bubble teas. So here I am sharing this incredible matcha and coconut tapioca pudding. It’s yummy, it’s light and it’s so much fun to eat. The recipe is really simple and the soft and moist texture of tapioca makes it a very refreshing dessert. The pairing of coconut, matcha and raspberries is perfect. It’s not only a wonderful colour pairing, but a unexpected flavour combination, too.

You can find tapioca pearls in every asia shop or just order tapioca pearls online!

If you love matcha you will definitely like this Matcha Salmon Poke! You can make a whole matcha themed dinner. Share your take on this fresh and yummy matcha and coconut tapioca pudding or any other of my dishes! Tag me on Instagram as @fifthfloorkitchen and use #fifthfloorkitchen hashtag. I love seeing your pics!

Yummy matcha and coconut tapioca pudding

  • 800 ml refined sugar free coconut milk and some extra for serving
  • 100 gram tapioca pearls
  • 1 vanilla bean
  • 80 gram corn sugar (or any sugar you prefer)
  • 2 tsp matcha powder
  • 1-2 handful raspberries
  • 3 tbsp coconut chips
  • 1 pinch salt
  1. Start with soaking the tapioca. In a saucepan add coconut milk, tapioca pearls, seeds of the vanilla bean and pod, and 200 ml water. Let it soak for about 30 minutes. 

  2. When ready bring coconut tapioca mix to a simmer, add sugar and a pinch of salt and give it a stir. Let it simmer on low heat for about 10 minutes and give it an occasional stir.

  3. Mix matcha powder with 2 tbsp hot water and whisk until smooth. Add the matcha to the coconut tapioca mix stir until combined. Take it off the heat and divide among small glasses or bowls. 

  4. Let it cool down in your fridge for about 2-3 hours. Serve with a drizzle of coconut milk, some raspberries, coconut chips and dust with matcha powder!

It took me two attempts to become friends with matcha. I still don’t like matcha latte or plain matcha tea but I grew quite fond of using matcha powder as spice for savoury or sweet dishes. Like in this amazing matcha salmon poke bowl with a ruby grapefruit dressing. The pairing of the earthy matcha in the sushi rice, the sweet salmon and the tangy taste of the grapefruit is simply amazing. 

Poke bowls all over instagram these days because they are not only healthy but because they are so delicious. For example this colourful poke bowl is full of healthy vitamins and omega-3 fatty acids. Fresh veggies like radishes and cucumber slices add crispiness, some colourful grapefruit filets and edamame, and salmon caviar makes it extra special.

The recipe for this Hawaiian matcha salmon poke bowl is really simple but so complex in taste. Also I think it’s a fantastic recipe for a crowd. Quick and easy to prepare and your friends can even mix their own bowls! If you prefer tuna then you can even mix with this Ahi tuna poke bowl.
