Sauté the finely chopped onion in olive oil, then add the sliced mushrooms and bell pepper and lightly fry them. Add the quinoa, season lightly, pour in a little liquid, and simmer. Wrap the filling in a blanched Savoy cabbage leaf, shape it into a cabbage roll, and cook it in salted boiling water. For a fresher taste, serve with peeled, lightly cooked tomatoes.

In olive oil, quickly sauté slices of onion and one or two cloves of fresh garlic, then add diced pumpkin that has been hollowed out and peeled beforehand. Lightly stew it, add soup vegetables and spices, and season with salt. When the pumpkin is soft, puree it, add water and wine to reach the desired consistency, bring to a boil, and serve (if possible, in the hollowed-out pumpkin). For the soup garnish, use sautéed zucchini – cut the zucchini into cubes and quickly fry them in olive oil. The flavor of the soup is further improved with yogurt.

Wash the salmon fillet and dry it well with paper towels. If necessary, remove small bones with tweezers. Cut it into 4 roughly equal pieces and lightly season with salt and pepper.

Wash and chop the herbs, peel and finely chop the shallot, and also chop the capers (1 teaspoon). In a bowl prepare the sauce – mix lemon juice (2 tablespoons), olive oil (2 tablespoons), and salt (2 pinches). Stir until the salt is completely dissolved, then add the herbs, shallot, and capers and mix everything well.

Heat a pan over medium-high heat. Add oil to the well-heated pan, and once it is hot, place the salmon pieces in it. Without moving or turning them, cook for 2 to 3 minutes first on the skin side. Then carefully turn them and sear the other side – cook for another 3 to 4 minutes. If the pieces are very thick, briefly sear the sides as well.

Place the cooked salmon on plates and pour over the herb sauce. Suitable side dishes include roasted vegetables, wholegrain rice, grains, etc.

Peel the cucumbers, cut them lengthwise, scoop out the seeds with a spoon, and slice them thinly. Also slice the garlic or radishes and chop the mint leaves picked from the stems.

Place the cucumbers and garlic or radishes in a bowl, season with salt and pepper, and mix well. Finally add lemon juice, olive oil, yogurt, and half of the herbs. Mix again and sprinkle with the remaining herbs.

The dish is quick to prepare. Since it tastes best when cold, place it in the refrigerator for about half an hour before serving.
