Several of my readers ask me to post some of my basic recipes.

I do not consider myself as a great cook ! As you'll see most of the meals I cook for my family on a daily basis are really simple, but healthy

I can call this Basic Family French Cooking, because it's the way everybody cook in France.

For exemple, this is what I have cooked for lunch today for me and my 3 kids (I don't work on wednesday, nor my children go to school).

It took me less than 30 mns !

Fish coated with breadcrumbs (just soak pieces of fish in milk then roll it in breadcrumbs and cook in a non-stick pan 5mns each side)

Flat green beans, cooked five minutes in a pressure cooker, then "sauté", in a Tsp of olive oil with garlic and parsley.

Serve with fresh lemon slices, for dessert apples, for beverage water, that's very simple, it's just the kind of meal I use to prepare for us, you can see it's not a big deal to have something healty to it in less than half an hour.

I think I know hundreds of this kind of meal, I change them according to what I find on the market, I cook more sophisticated meals on the week-end...

I'm going to try to post exemple of meal at least once a week, I can't promise you more because I won't have enough time.

The next recipe will be a cake called "quatre-quart", it's a very easy one that you can make with a child (I hope I'll be able to post it before the end of the week)
