So I have just spent today 2 hours throwing a ton of tapioca away after failed attempts. Bad videos everywhere in the internet. This is why I keep this blog, to have things ready to go, or you have to watch and read hours of recipes again. Okay so it is the starch of the tapioca which makes this simple recipe complex, because if you are not careful the whole thing becomes a gelatin mess. But here is the solution.

So, I'm just gonna cut straight to the chase, or should I say: to the cheese. I took me a long time to find this recipe but this chef in this elaborate blog, nailed it. Well done Juan Andres. I hope you don't mind that I share your recipe with English readers.
-600 grams of requesón.
3. Now place the cream mix in a mold, you can use oven paper to make it easier, like the pics.

Fantastic Meatballs
This recipe of Deb Perelman is simply great....pretty much like anything she does.
I have been meaning to post it for 2 or 3 years and never got round to it....so I've had to keep going to it and re-learn it over and over....a waste of time. Plus this summer has been nuts looking for a new place to live, but here I am back in September trying to get in touch with routines a bit and writing down my to-go-to-recipes to feel like a functioning person again.
-1/2 kg of mince (pork and beef).

Spanish Mushrooms with Jamón Serrano and Rosemary
But this recipe is pretty simple, and no oven is required!
-8 big mushrooms.
-100 grams of jamon serrano in bits.
-some fresh rosemary.
-1 tsp of minced garlic.
STEPS:
1. Sautee the garlic and the jamon bits in a frying pan until it is all golden and darker, for 5 minutes in low fire. Now add the rosemary to the mix and stir too.
2. Reserve this mix and in the same pan, now place the mushrooms (without stem obviously) upside down and cook them for about 3 minutes in medium fire. Place lid over them so that they soften.
3. Now flip the mushrooms and fill the inside with the mix of ham, garlic and ham and now cook for another 10 minutes or 12 until they are done. Cover on and off, so that they soften. This wonderful juice begins to come to the surface, mixing with the ham and garlic and rosemary, and whoah it is so good. Make sure you don't burn them.
That's it. So good, so spanish and not hard.
