10 Restaurant Meal Ideas
It’s not just institutions and brands that win over their fans, but also specific dishes that are prepared correctly only in that very restaurant.
So what prevents us from trying to unravel the mystery of recognizable taste and make the same snacks at home from healthy products?
With our selection, you’ll no longer have any reason to look for discounts on ready-made food delivery – after all, it still tastes better at home! And for the sweet, we have prepared recipes for famous desserts that are simply impossible to resist.
Chicken: Strips
Store-bought chicken is hardly radically different from the kind used in fast-food restaurants. It’s all about the breading! The fact that it’s made up of several components makes it taste so special. And don’t forget to put paper towels under the strips to drip the excess oil from deep frying.
Chicken: wings
Another heart-stealing dish. You can make the wings spicier for your taste by adding a little tabasco sauce or chili pepper to the breading, but you still shouldn’t overdo it. The wings, already homemade, are sure to be delightfully crispy and tangy.
Coleslaw
It would seem that what’s so special about coleslaw – it’s all cabbage and bell peppers and dressing. So maybe that’s the secret? Or is it what main course this salad is served with? However, the coleslaw goes well with both meat and vegetable dishes.
Battered onion rings
It sounds incredible, but this popular snack can also be made at home just as well as in a beloved fast-food restaurant. Of course, you won’t get them ready as fast as you would after ordering them at the cash register, but the result is definitely worth it! And in a large group of friends, it’s more fun to cook the rings.
Cinnamon Buns
Hot, spicy buns covered in creamy custard leave no one indifferent who has ever tried them. Even if you’re not yet a sophisticated American Cinnabon fan, be sure to take the time to make this flavorful pastry. We promise you’ll get hooked! And then you’ll start fantasizing about icing additions and toppings.
Chocolate chip cookies
This option is good for sweet tooths who want a quick taste of homemade chocolate chip cookies with buttercream inside. Only 40 minutes and all you have to do is wait for the “oreos” to cool and the tea to brew.
Coconut bars
A recipe for the most impatient: just three ingredients, 20 minutes to cook, and a couple of hours in the fridge, if you can resist pouncing on them early of course. The milk chocolate-covered coconut delight can easily be topped with a glass of Pina Colada or a glass of cold milk.
Creamy Liqueur
Another interesting option for an evening dessert is homemade liqueur, which can be drunk on its own or turned into a “White Russian” cocktail with cream or milk. There are many other creamy alcoholic drinks, but the taste of creamy Irish liqueur is always special.
Coffee Liqueur
To make this famous liqueur at home, you will have to have patience. However, its immediate preparation is very fast, the rest is a matter of time. Make the base of this two-component liqueur in advance, put it away in a dark place, and when you remember it, you can enjoy the results of your culinary talent.
Chocolate Hazelnut Cake
Based on the bar of the same name, this cake turns out very chocolatey, incredibly nutty and surprisingly delicious. It is unlikely that such a dessert will be good for every day – it deserves a special occasion. And you can’t handle the biscuit, meringue, chocolate ganache and caramel sauce by yourself – you need a team of friends and family to help you.
What can you do?
Do not blame yourself too much for the weakness of once a month to eat junk food from fast food. After all, eating is not only about filling the stomach, but also the emotions associated with the process.
