Since the age of 6 I have been cooking and creating new, simple recipes. Since 2012, I have been focusing on easy recipes for busy people, as helping others not only brings good karma, but primarily makes us feel really good!

This cooking blog contains fun and easy recipes for busy people. Cooking Romania by Vivi mainly addresses businesspersons with a sense of cooking. I don’t have a lot of time to cook (although I would love to LIVE in the kitchen), so I thought I should share some tips and tricks that have made my life easy and my culinary talents quite popular.

…I’m transported back to summers spent with Granny Victoria on her cozy balcony. The fresh aroma of tomatoes and cucumbers, the tang of garlic, and the warmth of mămăligă filled the air as we shared simple yet hearty lunches. Gimilică, our cheeky budgie, always found his way onto my shoulder or my plate, sneaking bites of cheese and vegetables.
Traditional Romanian Mămăliga (polenta or cornmeal) pronounced mama-LEE-gah is a staple dish of Romanian cuisine with such a major place in the country’s popular culture that Romanians sometimes scornfully call one other “Mămăligar” (Mămăligă eater).
You can also add raisins, nuts, honey, vanilla or rum extract, even salt and pepper if you feel like it. Feel free to add ingredients to this beautiful simple dish that brings back childhood memories every time you cook it.
Granny Victoria used to cook the best Romanian pea stew (mancare de mazare) and she had a secret ingredient we are going to share with you today. Can you guess what the secret ingredient is?
Easy Low Carb Creamy Carrots and Mushrooms in White Sauce is one of the most popular recipes in our household. We love heavy cream (sour cream in Romania), carrots, mushrooms and green onion. You can add chicken, butter, white wine, ginger, curry or lime leaves to it. Don’t hesitate to add ingredients to your liking to this basic recipe!
With their filling, creamy texture, mushrooms are one of the keto friendliest vegetables. Not only are they low in carbs, calories and fat, but also rich in potassium, magnesium and zinc.
Wondering how to cook sweet corn on the cob spending no more than 1 minute in the kitchen preparing it?
All you need to do is bring salted water to a boil in a large pot, clean the sweet corn on the cob and wait for it to boil for 20 minutes.
