What you can cook quickly and eat deliciously. What can you cook from nothing?

How to cook “something” from “nothing”? The cheerful student times have long since sunk into oblivion, but in my memory, in addition to the daily celebration of the soul, there remains a constant heavy feeling of slight hunger. A student is not the most solvent contingent of a grocery store. Therefore, most often, he has to make do with the minimum both in quantity and quality of food consumed. Ingenuity and a minimum set of culinary knowledge should come to the rescue. Yes, these skills can still be useful.

The first and most important dish of the student diet, of course, budget soup.

1. To prepare the broth, chicken giblets, breast, and any “budget” canned fish in oil will do.
2. A small amount of carrots and onions fried in vegetable oil, a couple of diced potatoes, and 5 minutes before readiness, thin vermicelli are added to the broth.
3. The whole process takes 30-40 minutes.

If you can’t purchase the ingredients for the broth, you can make do with lean soup. There are options for pea and bean soups. Although, of course, pea soup simply requires not the most expensive smoked rib. But no, no. Adding grated processed cheese creates maximum variety out of NOTHING.

It would be appropriate to prepare these wonderful soups vegetable sandwiches, if there is almost nothing in the refrigerator.

1. For them you need to prepare croutons - fry the bread on both sides in vegetable oil.
2. On a coarse grater, grate the carrots, if you have them, melted cheese or one boiled egg.
3. Mix with mayonnaise.
4. And spread all this disgrace on toast.

Instead of carrots, you can take boiled beets, canned beans or peas, fresh cucumbers or tomatoes. Real jam!

If it happens that you have nothing to cook with, but you have canned fish, it doesn’t matter. Gourmets without a budget can easily try to fulfill even the notorious jellied fish. This requires decisive action.

1. Drain canned sardines in oil
2. Add gelatin, a little water, heat thoroughly,
3. Pour this solution back into the fish pieces.
4. Give it time to harden.

Scrambled eggs, scrambled eggs, dumplings with potatoes, cottage cheese, cabbage, navy-style pasta deserve mention in one line, because they are familiar to everyone from childhood, and there is no point in dwelling on them in detail.

The most traditional of budget dishes, if there is almost nothing, without a doubt fried potatoes. In all variations.

With onions and garlic, deep-fried “straws” (that is, in ordinary vegetable oil). Under the cover and without. With and without eggs and sausage.

The most goes well with fried potatoes. common herring. Supporters of a healthy lifestyle with the same herring can easily eat potatoes boiled “in their jackets” in the usual way. If you crush the potatoes, it will be “massed”, and if you add a raw egg, butter, milk, the result will be puree. The same potatoes can be cut into halves and baked with lard, onions and mayonnaise in the oven.

The next issue of the budget kitchen program “Cook from NOTHING” is all kinds of porridges, vermicelli, any other pasta, with a dressing of onions fried in vegetable oil. It's a good idea to crack an egg or two into it.

The same pasta is absolutely compatible with grated cheese and egg. Possible option pasta with sugar. Or, just with sugar and butter.

Of course, there will also be those who are ready to devote part of their lives to sculpting. dumplings. The most common option from ALMOST NOTHING is dumplings with potatoes. It would be great to add lightly fried champignons, oyster mushrooms, or any other type of mushroom that is quite accessible today to ordinary crushed potatoes. They must include a golden onion fried in vegetable oil.

It's time to turn your attention to cutlets from almost nothing. These can be vegetables (carrots, cabbage, beets, onions), cutlets from canned fish (sardine, or saury, finely grated potatoes, onions, boiled rice, herbs, raw eggs), cutlets from fresh or frozen fish (fillet of any affordable), chicken cutlets.

Hardworking and patient can do pies. The dough, with the participation of water (excellent students can use kefir, whey), flour and yeast, should turn out to be the consistency of belyashi and almost nothing.

The meat cannot be said to be successful, but at least with an approximation in aroma, a pinch of bouillon cube will replace it. It will look like whitefish with broth inside.

The need for invention is cunning, and this can be confirmed by the most modest in costs, sprat borscht with beans.

If you have an oven or microwave, life becomes much easier. Rescuers will always come to the rescue hot sandwiches(bread, boiled sausage, grated cheese, mayonnaise, herbs).

For a dinner table with dishes made from almost NOTHING, something fermented milk (kefir, fermented baked milk, sour cream) is perfect to add satiety to the food.

Well, and, finally, very simple, easy to prepare even by a child, croutons in egg and milk. The entire sliced ​​loaf will require three eggs, two tablespoons of milk and a pinch of salt.

To sum up all of the above, we can safely state that if you have ingenuity and desire, with not very much effort, you can not only cook something from nothing, but also, calling on your imagination to help, eat quite varied. Even with a very, very modest budget.

Are you throwing money into the trash bin? No? What about leftover food? Just leftovers, not leftovers? It's no secret that it's almost never possible to cook enough food to avoid leftovers. If you throw away leftover food, you are throwing away money. But from the remaining food you can prepare various dishes, significantly reducing food costs. So pack what you have left into a container and put it in the refrigerator. To be honest, I sometimes deliberately cook more pasta or porridge than I need for the planned meals and use it the next day to prepare a quick breakfast or dinner.

So, you are left with:

Boiled pasta- An excellent base for various casseroles or an addition to soups. In addition, you can prepare cold salads with pasta, omelettes with various ingredients.

Boiled rice- base for fruits, cottage cheese, meat. With the leftover rice, you can easily make a salad with raw vegetables and seasoning (for example, homemade) or a wreath of meat and rice

Boiled vegetables- An excellent filling for omelettes. You can use them in preparing salads, casseroles, and with various.

Prepared pork, beef or poultry meat- can serve as a basis for sandwiches, used as a filling for pies or dumplings, pasta casseroles, and rice. You can use boiled meat to prepare various salads or potato cutlets by mixing it with leftover mashed potatoes. The puree, of course, can be prepared specially

Leftover bread and bakery products- grind the dried remains in any way available to you - here you have breadcrumbs. This is, in my opinion, the easiest way to use dried bread. In fact, you can prepare a lot of tasty and cheap dishes from leftover bread - croutons from dried bread soaked in milk (or sweet water) with an egg and fried in a frying pan, charlotte with various fruit fillings, pastries, cakes without baking, if there are any leftovers. stale cupcakes and much more.

Let me give you an example of a very tasty omelette made from leftovers from a previous meal.

Another dish familiar to everyone since childhood. Many housewives are experimenting with (or cottage cheese). Others believe that the classic version is ideal.

Ingredients

• 500 g cottage cheese;
• ¼ teaspoon salt;
• 2 tablespoons sugar;
• 2 tablespoons flour;
• 1 egg;
• 30 g butter;
• sour cream or jam - for serving.

Preparation

In a deep bowl, mash the cottage cheese with a fork. Add salt, sugar and flour to it, break the egg. Knead the dough. It should be soft, but not sticky to your hands. If the cottage cheese is too greasy and wet and the dough does not stick together, add a little more flour.

Form cutlets about 2 cm thick from the resulting cheese mass. Fry the cheesecakes in butter for about 5 minutes on each side.

It is better to serve cheesecakes hot, although they are very tasty when cooled. They can be sprinkled with powdered sugar or jam. Those who like a less sweet option eat cheesecakes with sour cream.

This recipe puzzles many people: chicken, salt and that’s it?! But once you try it, you just become too lazy to bake chicken in the oven. Moreover, in this case the result is simply a breathtakingly crispy crust!

• broiler chicken weighing 1.5–2 kg;
• 1 kg table salt.

Preparation

The chilled chicken carcass should be rinsed and dried with paper towels. If desired, the chicken can be rubbed with dried herbs and lemon juice, but this is not at all necessary. If the chicken is fatty enough, it will already be juicy and flavorful.

You can check for doneness by piercing the chicken with a toothpick. If clear juice comes out, the chicken can be removed.
