Turkey pasta and meatballs - the all-seeing eye
- minced turkey – 0.5 kg;
- grated cheese – ¼ cup;
- breadcrumbs– ¼ cup;
- ground black pepper – ¼ teaspoon;
- salt.
To prepare the marinade you will need:
- onions – 2 pcs.;
- ripe tomatoes – 1.2 kg;
- celery – 2 stalks;
- garlic – 2 cloves;
- carrots – 2 pcs.;
- olives;
- salt and pepper;
- Bay leaf.
We start cooking with the marinade. To do this, we take our ripe juicy tomatoes and remove the skin from them.
You can easily remove the skin from tomatoes by placing them in boiling water for a few minutes, then pouring them over with ice water. Don't forget to make a small cross-shaped cut on the tomato first.
In a frying pan, first fry the garlic and diced onion until transparent. Now add grated carrots and celery. After 10 minutes, you can pour the prepared tomato puree over the vegetables.
Don't forget to season the sauce with salt and pepper and add bay leaf.
Leave the sauce on its own low heat simmer until thickened.
This may take a whole hour.
Therefore, let’s not waste time, but move on to preparing the meatballs themselves.
Mix all ingredients for meatballs.
Separately, cut the olives into discs.
These will be the eyes, which need to be carefully placed on each meatball, slightly pressed into the minced meat.
Pour it out ready sauce into a heat-resistant form and carefully place the meatballs in it.
Try to keep all eyes above the sauce level.
Cover the pan with foil and place in the oven for at least half an hour.
After this time, remove the dish and remove the foil. Bring the meatballs to readiness, uncovered, in the oven for another 10 minutes.
Boil the spaghetti and place the turkey meatballs with eyes on top. It is better to serve this dish hot and in portions.
Baked roll - the hand of a vampire
To prepare minced meat you will need:
- minced pork and beef – 700 gr.;
- chicken eggs – 2 pcs.;
- onions – 2 pcs.;
- carrots – 1 pc.;
- hard cheese – 100–150 gr.;
- ketchup;
- greenery;
- salt and pepper.
Prepare the base for meatloaf from ready-made minced meat, adding finely chopped onion, grated carrots, seasonings and herbs.
It is better to prepare the minced meat yourself from pieces of meat - this is a guarantee that the dish will turn out tasty.
We form a hand from the mass, laying out both the wrist itself and all the fingers. Now we cut out nail plates from the second bulb, which we put in their places. Stir the rest of the onion into a bone stump on the back side.
Coat creepy hand ketchup, then cover with sliced cheese.
The workpiece is ready - it’s time to send it to the oven, where it will spend the next 40 minutes at a temperature of at least 200 degrees.
Adjust the time depending on the capacity of your oven and make sure that the vampire hand roll does not burn.
Post it ready dish onto a platter and serve immediately to the table, where hungry zombies and witches are eagerly awaiting treats.
Stuffed Spooky Peppers
To prepare the peppers you will need:
- spaghetti – 750–1000 gr.;
- minced meat – 1 kg;
- bell pepper – 10–15 pieces;
- tomato paste – 100 gr.;
- tomatoes – 2–3 pcs.;
- onion – 1 pc.;
- basil and oregano;
- salt and pepper.
In a heated frying pan, fry finely chopped onion and immediately add minced meat to it. We continue to cook over fairly high heat so that the water from the mass evaporates and the minced meat begins to fry. This will take 5–10 minutes, depending on the quality of the meat product.
Now add chopped tomatoes to the minced meat, from which we first remove the skins.
After frying the minced meat with tomatoes, add tomato paste and about half a liter of boiling water.
Salt, pepper, add all the seasonings and continue to simmer the meat sauce, now over low heat. It will take about another half hour to cook.
At this time, prepare the peppers themselves.
Take the number of peppers no less than the number of guests. Believe me, such a dish will not only be a wonderful decoration for Halloween - every guest will want to try the super scary pepper.
Cut off the tops and stems of the peppers and remove all the seeds. We rinse and use a very sharp knife to make holes in the shape of eyes and a lopsided mouth.
The peppers themselves do not need to be stewed or processed.
They will serve on the table as utensils, and not as an ingredient in the dish.
When the meat sauce is ready, boil the spaghetti in salted water and mix it with the minced meat.
Place the finished pasta with minced meat on the prepared peppers and, using a fork, pull the pasta out through the holes, giving the peppers an even more terrifying appearance.
Add more spaghetti to the peppers and sprinkle cheese on top.
Instead of spaghetti with minced meat, you can use pilaf or another hot dish as a filling for scary peppers.
Mystical mashed potatoes
This is not just a treat, it is a special substance for... Mashed potatoes, of course, will be eaten after the ritual. But in order to do this, let’s think about how to combine two goals.
Firstly, we prepare mashed potatoes not according to the usual recipe, but add spinach or boiled carrots, which will give it an unnatural color.
Now we are engaged in secret predictions.
You can find food-grade plastic figures and place them in the resulting substance. Or you can cut out figures from raw vegetables yourself.

And of course, try to arrange the mystical potatoes in an unusual way. Let it be a volcano with lava or a raging river.

Have you decided to celebrate Halloween? And you're probably already wondering what to cook. Indeed, what would a holiday be without traditional treats! How to cook delicious and original dishes for Halloween – today the online magazine “Korolevnam.ru” will tell you.
After consulting with knowledgeable people Having been celebrating this Catholic holiday for several years, we have come to the conclusion that original and delicious dishes on the table are the most cherished moment of the holiday itself. This holiday especially pleases American farmers: this is where you can put pumpkins and other gifts of the autumn garden. However, not only garden fruits and vegetables can be used in cooking. The most important thing is to serve the treats in an unconventional and creative way. Ready? Then let's get started!
Planning the menu
First you need to decide what exactly will be on your table: appetizers, main courses or desserts? Or maybe all together? Well, let's surprise your guests. Well, how to do this - we will now tell you everything in detail.
What's a table without snacks? Indeed, Halloween snacks can be very diverse: fruity, sweet, salty, and spicy. We also include in this category various salads. Moreover, snacks and salads can be the most ordinary (those that you are used to preparing on holidays, weekends, or in general). The main thing is to submit and format them correctly.
Get ready: we have found for you the most original options from the most common products. And no unicorn tails or crow eggs in the recipes. You can find all the ingredients in any supermarket, market, or bring them from your own garden. So let's begin.
Snacks
fruit plate
Fruits can and even should be served in an original way. Slice the bananas in half - they make great ghost bananas. Eyes and mouths can be decorated with spicy cloves or chocolate glaze (crumbs). Peeled tangerines will make excellent holiday pumpkins. An impromptu tail can be cut out of apple marmalades. As a last resort and green beans*pardon* will do.
Fruits can also be decorated in the form of smiles. Cut the apple into slices and place marshmallow “teeth” between two slices. To prevent the “teeth” from falling out, connect them together thick boiled condensed milk.
Frightened sprats
Sprats will also fit well on the holiday table. Choose canned food that contains large and uncrushed fish - it will be easier for guests to get them. Prepare the salad: mix a couple of boiled grated eggs, a couple of cloves of finely grated garlic, and mayonnaise. If you wish, you can add cheese (in this case you will get the famous “Jewish” snack).
Try to keep your mixture fairly thick. Place it in a small salad bowl. Place the sprats in the same salad bowl, tails up (respectively, fish heads should be “hidden” in the salad). Separately, you can serve croutons from a loaf or black bread in a vase.
Original croutons
Thinking about what dish to cook for Halloween? A good option for festive table any salads served on croutons or in tartlets will be available.
Will also fit potato chips, and a cracker (salted, with sesame, with pepper - for unsweetened sandwiches; with chocolate icing, with nuts, sugar – for sweet and fruity ones). You can get creative and serve non-standard sandwiches and salads.
Snack ladybug sandwiches
Both adults and children will be delighted with tomatoes ladybugs. Take saltine cracker, cover it with a layer curd cheese with herbs (with pickled cucumber, mushrooms or any other favorite you and your guests).
Cut the cherry tomato in half and place it on top of the cheese in the form of bug wings. Decorate with mayonnaise or cloves - dots on the wings. Use olives for the head and greens for the antennae.
Snack "mouse"
Place cheese cut into a triangle on a saltine cracker (works best Adyghe cheese, tofu, but you can use any other). You can even use an egg: in this case, simply cut the egg in half - this will be the improvised torso of the mouse.
For the ears, use sliced sausage or any other sausage product. For the nose, cloves, black pepper, a piece of olive are suitable; for the eyes you can use the same thing or sesame seeds, and for the tail – greens.
Bread coffins
Delight your guests with delicious “coffins” made from pieces of black or “Borodinsky” bread. To do this, use a knife to cut 2 pieces of bread for 1 sandwich. They can be fried in a dry frying pan or lightly dried in the oven/toaster. Between the “lid of the coffin” and the “bottom” make a layer of curd cheese with any filling.
You can also simply use mayonnaise with grated garlic or any salad prepared in advance. By the way, sausage, cheese and fresh cucumber have not been canceled either. Decorate the lid with a “cross” of Korean carrots or strips of bell pepper (tomato, fresh/pickled cucumber are also suitable).
Olive Spiders
Egg snacks. Yes, where would we be without the most common product that almost everyone has in their refrigerator? Eggs can be supplemented with any vegetables, cheese, or mayonnaise.
To make savory spiders, hard-boil eggs. Cool, cut in half. Remove the yolks to a separate bowl. Let’s immediately make a reservation that it is better to cook not in portions, but for everyone at once: so as not to cut the egg and prepare the filling separately for each guest. So, put the yolks in a bowl and mash them with a fork, add mayonnaise and garlic (instead of garlic, you can use finely chopped fried onion), mix everything well. Now spoon the resulting filling into each egg half with a teaspoon.
Making a spider is quite simple: use canned olives. Cut the olive in half, one half is the body of the spider, and the second will need to be cut crosswise into an equal amount - these are the legs. Place the appetizer on a plate and garnish with herbs.
Halloween snack “Fly agarics”
It's quite tasty and interesting snack. You can use ordinary chicken eggs with ordinary tomatoes (then it is better to place them directly on a plate and trim the egg “base” a little so that the “mushroom” sits firmly in the plate), and quail eggs with cherry tomatoes.
For the last option, hard-boil quail eggs and “thread” them onto skewers. Cut the cherry tomatoes in half and place on top of the eggs. Add a little mayonnaise between the “cap” and “leg”. Decorate the hat with mayonnaise dots and the leg with greens. How many mushrooms there will be on a skewer is up to you. You can use short toothpicks rather than long skewers.
Egg molds
There is also the opportunity to take advantage of the progressive innovations of the 21st century. Now there is a huge choice special forms, giving products interesting view. For example, an egg mold. Just in time for Halloween, you're sure to be able to find something suitable.
Such things are sold both on the Internet and in stalls selling kitchen utensils and household goods. IN in this case All you need to do is boil the egg, peel it and “press” it in the mold for a few minutes. The festive skull is ready!
Orange vases
Dishes served in orange “tins” look very colorful, fun and appetizing. Cut off the top of the orange, carefully remove the pulp, cut funny faces on the peel - the salad mold is ready! You can put any salad in such “vases”: both vegetable and fruit.
In fruit salad you can just add the remaining orange pulp. Various sweets also look good in such “vases”. Experiment - perhaps your imagination will give you many new interesting options!
Halloween salad decoration
Use your imagination when decorating familiar dishes: an ordinary herring under a fur coat can turn into a masterpiece under your hands.
Just like any other *good* salad.
Unusual hot food for Halloween
You and I have reached hot. You will be surprised, but even here the most ordinary products could not be avoided. If you don’t have time to invent something, you can always create familiar dishes. Again, the highlight is in the presentation.
Hot dogs with fingers and other experiments with sausages
Take regular hot dog buns, cut them, place pre-prepared buns inside hot sausage and decorate everything with ketchup. Finger-shaped sausages are prepared as follows: peel the sausages, cut off the tip on one side, preferably with uneven, torn edges. Make several cuts on the sausage itself to imitate knuckles. Place the sausages in the microwave for 1-2 minutes. On the still hot sausages, use a knife to make small nail-shaped cuts. The “fingers” are ready!
You can also play with the theme of mummies and severed fingers in other dishes. Great idea - stylized sausages in dough *wink*
"Dissectioned Corpse"
It's even more unusual presentation sausages! To do this, line the table with a white tablecloth with pre-applied “bloody” handprints and smudges. Place an old shirt and jeans on the tablecloth in the shape of a lying person. old clothes You can also stain it with red paint in advance or already on the table with ketchup. Instead of a head, use a round plate with cutlets; you can put a pile of mashed potatoes in the shape of a face, pouring it generously with goulash and tomato paste. The insides of a “corpse” can be imitated by any sausages, cutlets, kupats and other meat delicacies.
Actually, here’s a photo of such a table setting: we’re sure your guests will be *crazy* impressed.
Spaghetti
Yes, everyone's favorite spaghetti can also take part in the holiday feast. And even become the “highlights” of the program. Well, why not with the current variety of pasta? Different not only in form, but also in content: spinach, tomato, wheat, rice, buckwheat, carrot, with squid ink (black), with chili pepper and... the list can be endless.
It is enough to use them as a side dish, and for the main dish come up with some tasty meat sauce, for example, bolognese or goulash with meat cutlets. Prepare “eyes” from minced meat or chicken eggs for pasta - both children and adults will be satisfied.
Stuffed peppers
A classic dish can be turned into a festive one. For example, if you don’t just peel the peppers before stuffing, but also cut out their faces, like Jack-O-Lantern. These peppers can be stuffed with anything: the classic combination of rice and minced meat (by the way, these peppers will not fall apart even if they are cooked in sauce).
You can also place pre-cooked navy-style pasta into raw decorated peppers. By the way, any vegetable salads I will also look great in these edible “salad bowls.”
Recipes with pumpkin
Porridge in pumpkin
Well, tell me, what would a festive Halloween table be without pumpkin dishes? You can cook interesting and tasty dish- porridge in pumpkin. You will surprise all your guests with such delicious and very beautiful dish. To prepare pumpkin porridge you will need the following ingredients:
- Pumpkin itself - 3 kilograms, no less (if you are cooking for a family)
- Sugar - 1 tablespoon
- Salt – 1 teaspoon
- Black pepper (ground) - to taste
- Garlic – to taste (at least 2-3 cloves)
- Onion - 1 piece
- Buckwheat - half a kilogram
- Meat - half a kilogram
- Vegetable oil (or olive) – 2 tablespoons
Wash the pumpkin thoroughly, cut off the top, carefully clean the pumpkin from pulp and seeds. The thickness of the walls of the pumpkin should be at least 1.5 cm. Grease the inside of the resulting “saucepan” with pepper, salt, and sugar. Then place the pumpkin with the lid in the oven (place the lid next to it, do not cover the “saucepan” with it). Bake for an hour at 180 degrees. Meanwhile, heat the buckwheat in a dry frying pan. Then, in another frying pan, fry the onion, some of the pumpkin pulp and the meat cut into pieces in vegetable oil. After frying the products, combine them together in a saucepan (regular, our pumpkin is still baked in the oven!) and cook buckwheat porridge(the most common most simple method). By the way, you can cook the porridge first, and only then add the fried meat - as you wish. Meanwhile, our pumpkin saucepan “came up.”
Remove it from the oven and fill it with the resulting porridge. Add a little water (half a glass), unpeeled (but washed!) cloves of garlic and cover with a lid. Before putting the pumpkin in the oven, you can grease its walls with oil for a beautiful shine. Now put the pumpkin in the oven for about another hour and at 180 degrees. After the specified time, the porridge is ready - enjoy! *good*
In the same way you can prepare vegetable stew in a pumpkin. Moreover, everything is much easier to prepare. The pumpkin does not need to be baked in the oven first, but chopped vegetables (onions, garlic, potatoes, pumpkin pulp, bell pepper, carrots, tomatoes, mushrooms, cabbage (you can choose vegetables to taste)) fry in a frying pan. Just place everything in the pumpkin, add pepper, sugar, salt, butter to taste and bake for two hours at 180 degrees. But if you want to add meat to the stew, it is better to fry it in a frying pan first. You don’t have to use the lid: a piece of dough or foil will do instead.
Pumpkin soup with shrimp
Why don't you cook some delicious aromatic pumpkin soup? It will definitely warm you up when it's cold. autumn evening and will perfectly satisfy hunger. Here are the ingredients you will need for our wonderful soup:
- Pumpkin - according to desired weight and size
- Peeled shrimp - 300 gr
- Cream - to taste (but not less than about 5 cups)
- Water - liter
- A few cloves of garlic
- Onion - 1 piece
- Carrots - 1 pc.
- Salt and spices - to taste ( nutmeg, curry, pepper, coriander, cumin)
Prepare the pumpkin in the same way as for porridge. Cut off the “lid”, clean the pumpkin from seeds and pulp. You can make the walls a little thicker - 2 cm. Bake the pumpkin and lid in the oven for 1 hour at 180 degrees. While the mold is being prepared, let's start making the soup itself. Cut the remaining pumpkin pulp into pieces, place in a saucepan, cover with water and leave to cook. Meanwhile, fry the onions and carrots in a frying pan. After frying, add the sautéed vegetables to the boiling pumpkin pulp. Add salt and spices there.
Bring the soup to a boil, then leave to simmer for another 5-7 minutes until the pumpkin is ready.

However, not everyone knows that creamy soup can turn sour very quickly. raw pumpkin. If you don’t want to bother, eat the soup right away. This is why the pumpkin soup pot is pre-cooked in the oven.

The rims of glasses for juice or spirits can be lightly dipped first in water and then in sugar. Sugar can be colored with food coloring. You can dip the edges in jam - that’s a “blood” on your glass. If you want to surprise your guests, then serve them a shot of vodka (or any other strong, but clear and light alcoholic drink) with a “bloody” syringe, without a needle, of course. The "bloody" contents can be anything - and pomegranate juice, and tomato and cherry compote - most importantly, non-alcoholic and red. The guest will decide for himself: mix everything in a glass or drink a glass and “snack” with the contents of the syringe *mosking*.

How to bake Witch's Fingers cookies:
- Beat butter and sugar until fluffy. Add the egg and flavorings (if you have almond essence, then you don’t need to add cinnamon and cardamom), mix everything. Add flour, baking powder and salt and stir until smooth.
- If you want to make your fingers green, add a little green food coloring and mix the dough thoroughly. If the color is too pale, add more dye.
- Cover the bowl with the dough cling film and put in the refrigerator for 30-40 minutes.
- Preheat the oven to 165°C. Take a quarter of the dough from the refrigerator and begin to shape the fingers. Focus on your little fingers. Place the finger blank on a baking sheet covered with baking paper. Place an almond on the tip and press down well (you can take peeled or unpeeled almonds, as well as nut halves). If the almonds are too large, then your finger can be made thicker. Form a knuckle by squeezing the dough from the sides below and above the knuckle. Using a knife, make folds of the finger. Repeat the procedure to form the remaining fingers. Place your fingers on the baking sheet at a distance of 1-2 cm from each other.
- Bake the cookies for 15-20 minutes or until lightly golden if your fingers are not green.
- Cool the cookies and start decorating. There are several options here. First, you can lightly dust your white fingers with cocoa using a brush. This will make your fingers look more contrasty and dirty. Secondly, if the almonds separate from the dough, you can pull them out and pour red jam into the hole so that when the almonds are returned, “blood” oozes from the nail bed. If you can't get the almonds out, just pour a little jam around the nail. Thirdly, dip the “cut off” part of your fingers into the jam, and also stain your knuckles with jam.
- You can serve the “Witch’s Fingers” cookies on their own, or you can suggest dipping them into a bowl of “bloody” jam. Bon appetit!
