The secret of Stalik Khankishiev's success
Khankishiev has no experience as a professional chef or restaurateur, nevertheless, his books are very popular in Russia. What's the secret? The experts say that it was successful primarily due to the right publishing marketing. For example, in 2012, during the Moscow International Book Fair, everyone could taste the branded pilaf “from Khankishiev”. The preparation of the dish took place in front of the public and under the personal guidance of the culinary specialist.
Khankishiev's first book "Kazan, brazier ..." did not look like an ordinary collection of recipes. It was distinguished by excellent design, layout and high-quality printing performance. This book, like subsequent publications, was positioned as a gift edition. The style of presentation was also special. Khankishiev easily turned recipes into a story about culture and life, and also shared stories from his life. One journalist called Khankishiev's books "culinary fiction, complete with detailed photographs and philosophical excursions."
The presentation of the second book of the cook took place in a Moscow restaurant. The stars of theater and cinema, businessmen, diplomats and journalists have gathered here. In addition, Khankishiev tries to conduct "master classes in oriental cuisine."
Stalik Khankishiev took part in the "Dinner Party" program. Also appeared in the show "Split Personality" (iTV) and on the radio station "Echo of Moscow".
Khankishiev is strict about the recipe and quality of products, criticizing the search for easy ways (replacing meat with sausage).
The culinary specialist is known for his categorical nature, irascibility, and sometimes even intolerance.

Original taken from stalic c My daughter was diagnosed with cancer
It's very hard for me to talk about it. First, because we have never experienced such intense and prolonged pain. Secondly, because I know that people on the Internet are much meaner and meaner than in real life. There will certainly be scum who will try to hurt us even more.
But I have someone to write this text for. Because so many - alas - have yet to face cancer. And I understand that now our experience, knowledge and some information can help these people.
Seryoga
I had a friend, Sergei. I played in the 16th school in the ensemble, and he - in the 23rd.
Here it is - in the middle.
And this is he already in his student years. Red shoes are from that very rock and roll.
And then he moved to Kaliningrad. When I moved to Moscow, I came to see me a couple of times during my holidays. I was happy.
One day I woke up at five in the morning, and his wife was calling on Skype. Cries and says:
- Seryoga has lung cancer.
It’s the same he complained in his heart, he thought that this heart ached! And then there was, he called and said that his neck hurts and he is doing electrophoresis. It turned out that the cancer was being grown.
I thought in the first second:
- Oh, cancer ... it's such a serious illness. Will he stay alive? We must send them money for treatment and tell them not to return it.
And then I thought:
- Why is she calling me? Really, there is no one else? It turns out that I am the closest to them? Are they relying on me? Help? Take on this load? Do I need it! But stop, stop. Since the Lord sends, it means that for some reason it is necessary. Yes, on the other hand, if I don’t help him now, but if something like that happens to me, who will help me then?
Thoughts rushed through my head in an instant, and on Skype I said:
- Fly to Moscow today! We will be treated!
Oh, and I was arrogant then! I thought it was so easy to arrange for a man from Kaliningrad for treatment in Moscow on December 25th.
First, Moscow is fenced off from the rest of Russia by an insurmountable palisade of bureaucratic regulations, pieces of paper and some kind of "pink coupons."
Secondly, on December 25, everyone who can make a decision is already resting.
To whom I just did not address! To everyone, to all acquaintances, friends, to friends of acquaintances. Several people helped me, especially dunduk_culinar
- Marat Abdullaev. It was he who advised to go to the 62nd city oncological hospital, which is located on the Novorizhskoe highway, fifteen kilometers from the Moscow Ring Road. We got the "pink ticket" and drove off.
Consilium. They invite me:
- Who are you to the patient?
- I'm his friend. I'm treating him.
- You see, his tumor is very large and is located in the upper part of the lung, one might say, near the shoulder. We need to perform an operation - to open the chest cavity, get to the tumor, take a piece of this tumor for a biopsy. Only then will we know with what chemotherapy drugs it should be treated. But all this is after the New Year.
- When?! Yes, in the three days that I have, he weakened right in front of my eyes! Already on the stairs to the second floor he could not climb, his voice was gone. After the New Year - is it after the "old" New Year? And even a few days for hospitalization, tests, preparation for surgery ... It will be time to drink three glasses and a glass of compote.
I continued:
- Listen, I see that you are all competent, experienced people. You almost certainly know what type of cancer he has? Let's start chemotherapy today, if we get there, we will continue, and if not, then we will proceed according to the proposed scheme.
The doctors reluctantly agreed. They took Sergei to the emergency room, he only then understood everything:
- Do I have cancer? I will die?
- Seryoga, what are you doing! You - well, so, there is some kind of tumor, it is necessary to treat, because many are passing away.
Apart from him, there was a priest in the ward. Seeing that Sergei did not really like the hospital atmosphere, the priest said:
- And you should be baptized with both hands at once, that you got here, in the 62nd! I have not been anywhere! You have not seen other hospitals, but here is order.
In fact, the ward was located in an old building, but it was quite clean, good bedding, warm. But a hospital is a hospital, you understand.
And so, a young, intelligent, cheerful and cynical doctor comes and brings Seryoga with a treba with cans on his chest. Tubes, catteters. Explains to me and Sergey's wife what and how. Like, in three days you will pull out the catteter, and that's all.
- Wait, doctor! Should we take him away? Where to? Home?
- Yes! Let them celebrate the New Year!
Wow! With such and such banks and pipes - I thought they were only in intensive care. I ask cautiously a second time:
- What can he do?
- His? Now he can do anything! You think about yourself what is possible and what is not. And now he doesn't care!
- What, and drink? And kebab?
- Yes, whatever he wants!
A couple of days later, at the New Year's table, Sergei already cheered up. He reached for a barbecue and asked for brandy. And then he suddenly cleared his throat and, pretending to check the microphone, spoke up:
- Once! Once!!! One two Three! Voice! The voice appeared!
Hooray! Chemotherapists hit the spot!
After the second year, he felt even better, and I told his wife to go home. What's here? We can handle it ourselves!
He endured the third course worse, from the fourth he felt very bad - he felt sick, vomited, but he understood that he had to be patient.
Radiotherapy began closer to summer. And so, we are walking through the park of the 62nd hospital for the next session, and Seryoga says:
- Look, Stalik! Summer!
I'm talking:
- So what? June! yes, of course - summer!
- And I am alive!
I turned aside so that he would not see the tears in my eyes.
Seryoga returned to Kaliningrad, went to work. I went to a concert of my favorite rock-group "Nazareth", gave me a CD with an autograph of Dan McCafferty and began to communicate with the priest from the church.
In the fall, he felt worse again. I told his wife:
- Well, let them in Kaliningrad get the same chemistry as in Moscow! What difference does it make where to drip?
I, a fool, could not even imagine that somewhere they would begin to drip not the same as in Moscow. They dripped it twice and it got worse.
- Then let’s come back to me, to Moscow!
By this time I already knew the head physician of the hospital and knew how and where to get that "pink ticket". (by the way, they have now been canceled, but this did not make it easier for nonresidents)
Two courses of chemotherapy in Moscow and suddenly Sergei comes to me and with some kind of angry joy of a doomed person says:
- A! Everything! I was discharged! - And he chopped with his hand from top to bottom.
- What are you? How is it - discharged? Is it easier for you? Or will they do something else?
- No! I was told that now I can go and be treated with folk methods.
How is that ?! Let me call Anatoly Nakhimovich, the head physician.
- How it is? Why was he discharged ?!
- Stalik, we did everything we should. If we do something willfully, and then he dies - and he will die for sure, this is already one hundred percent - then then we will be guilty.
- So what? Can't you do anything?
- Well, there is one drug, dear, really. Tarceva. But it does not heal, it only prolongs.
I found such a drug for Sergei. I wrote to LJ and someone gave us the remaining after the deceased relatives, for free. Then he bought another pack with a good discount, because the expiration date in three months expired, but he would have had time to drink one pill a day. But he didn't have time.
KARINA
Everything was going well for my daughter. She graduated from the institute, got married. The husband is a great guy, hard-working, calm, self-confident. A girl was born. They moved to Moscow, we helped buy an apartment, a car. And then the son-in-law lost his job.
He was so worried about this that he ended up in the hospital. I arranged for treatment, everything ended well. We return with him from the hospital, and at home we will be very happy. The daughter informs that she is pregnant! A few months later, an ultrasound scan shows that there is a boy. We jumped to the ceiling for joy!
Two weeks later, the son-in-law calls:
- We will come, we need to talk.
What happened? Working day, he has already got a job. Why isn't he at work? Why did he have a deaf, unusual voice?
They arrive, the daughter is crying. What? Getting divorced? What kind of misfortune? And she:
- Dad, mom, I have cancer! Breast cancer.
Just the day before we were visiting a married couple, where the wife also had cancer, but was cured. I saw with my own eyes that she had a good appetite, she was cheerful, they would say to dance - she would dance. I to them:
- Where were you treated? In Germany? Give me your contacts! And you can't talk to the doctor, maybe he will advise colleagues not in Munich, but in Berlin, where my sister lives?
The next morning, I received a chain of letters by e-mail. Then the Germans corresponded until midnight, describing the situation to each other and consulting. As a result, I had the contact of the best oncologist surgeon.
But I also called the 62nd hospital. Anatoly Nakhimovich said:
- Stalik, pull yourself together, come in the morning.
Meanwhile, the daughter said that she felt the tumor two months ago. I went to the clinic. She was told to go to the mammologist. But by that time the mammologist already "optimized" and she was waiting for the appointment for more than a month.
After all, I asked while my son-in-law did not have a job:
- Need money? Do you have money? Take it if you need it!
And they did not take, they were shy, but my daughter did not have several thousand rubles to go to a paid doctor. Okay, that was our fault, of course. My children misunderstood the word "modesty", they used it in the wrong place. But think, how many women in Russia have nowhere to get this money ?! That is, very many will not be able to see a doctor on time, just like my daughter.
After all, the mammologist said:
- Immediately to oncology!
And the daughter did not want to scare us, she went somewhere there herself, took tests, and came to us when it was already known for sure - cancer, stage three, metastases. Two months ago, cancer was just beginning, then it was necessary to start treating it!
Thank you very much, optimizers, effective managers. I bow low on your feet. I pray to God that you will never experience what I, father, experienced! And if something happened - you are the inhabitants of heaven, you will be cured.
I am also not a chalam-balam guy. I had money - I was saving up for an apartment for my son. I also borrowed from friends, they gave me everything from whom I asked. A classmate called:
- Stalik, I have 12,000 dollars, come take it!
- Luda, thank you, I have already collected a sufficient amount!
And after half an hour he calls again:
- Stalik, I still have a million rubles. Of these, I will only need half a million by the summer for my daughter's wedding, and you can return the rest when you will.
- Thank you, Lyuda, if you need it, I'll call you, I'll come.
This Lyudmila's mother had died of cancer shortly before, she understood what we were facing. But we did not have problems with money, and tens of millions of my fellow citizens have such problems. And read on for how best to avoid cancer if you don't have the money.
We arrived at the 62nd. The head physician summoned the head of the chemotherapy department, Daniil Lvovich Stroyakovsky. Karina was taken away somewhere, and they began to read the documents and look at the tests. I was told:
- Stalik, your daughter has a very severe form of cancer. The survival rate is as follows: in the first year 50%, in three years - 30%, in five years - 10%. We consider those who live longer than five years to be healthy.
And further:
- Get ready for the fact that you have already lost your daughter. Let's sleep the child.
Do you understand, can you imagine for a moment what I experienced that day?
But I wasn't going to give up. Karina was undergoing an emergency additional examination, and I was already preparing a visa, tickets, my sister made an appointment with a doctor, my sons were running around about registration - it was necessary to prescribe Karina so that she could be treated in this hospital.
D.L. Stroyakovsky returned to the chief doctor's office with the papers.
- Stalik, I looked. In the world, only 18 cases of such cancer have been studied during pregnancy. There is one way. Let's try. First, 4 courses of chemotherapy. Then a cesarean section. After that, there is still chemistry, but one medicine is needed here, which is not yet available in Russia. It is very expensive - about 5,000 euros per ampoule. One ampoule every three weeks for a year. Then the operation. Then radiotherapy.
- How to do chemotherapy during pregnancy?
- Starting from 4 months, the placenta does not skip chemistry, we will use special medications, with caution.
Everything was spinning in my head, my thoughts were confused.
“I’ll take her to Germany after all.” I have money, I cannot save on my daughter, I cannot take risks.
- Stalik, in Germany you will fall into the hands of intermediaries, money will be pulled from you. For what we have done today, they will take 10-15 thousand euros from you there, and then also the treatment. It is enough to bring from there the medicine we told you about.
- No, I'll go.
But the next day I still took my daughter to the hospital and she received the first course of chemotherapy. The next day we were already in Berlin.
Thanks to my sister and the contacts we got through friends in Germany, we didn’t need intermediaries. The surgeon referred to a fellow chemotherapist. A female professor, excellent English, friendly, self-confident. I looked at the documents and asked:
- You have all the analyzes, we trust our colleagues from the 62nd, we know them. What do you want from us?
- Please write a treatment plan.
And she began to write. Word for word everything that D.L. Stroyakovsky wrote.
Only about that expensive medicine did not write. I asked why she doesn't want to use this medicine?
- But this is a very expensive medicine, we can try to do without it ...
- Look, this money is being printed somewhere here in Germany, I'll get it. But my wife will never give birth to my daughter!
I asked how much it costs to be treated in Germany, how much does the operation cost, how much does radiotherapy cost. She convinced me that our surgeons, and especially in the 62nd, are no worse than at the Berlin clinic Scherite. Yes, it is better to undergo radiotherapy in Germany, the equipment is better there, therefore the doctors are more experienced - they just have something to work on. And at the end she said:
- Well, if you have a desire to be treated, if you have money, then you just have to pray to God and everything will be fine! Yes? Deal?
We were already leaving, but I remembered:
- Where is the money to pay?
- Down there, there is an ATM. If you wish, pay 500 euros there.
With the money saved, I took my daughter to Paris and Rome. We had time until the next course of chemotherapy, and judging by the words of the German doctor, her mood was very important. And I decided - let him look at the beautiful cities, let him calm down a little. By the way, a doctor in Germany was very happy when she heard that we had already started treatment. Said:
- Well done! Right!
After the first course, the daughter felt that the tumor had shrunk. An ultrasound scan confirmed her assumption. After the second and third sessions, the tumor remained within the same limits, did not grow, but did not decrease either. And after the fourth, the tumor began to grow again and we were told to urgently have a cesarean section. The baby was 7.5 months old in the womb.
This is how we saw him for the first time.
This is how he became on the day he was supposed to be born. Here our grandson is exactly nine months old, counting from conception.
Many thanks to the doctors of the regional perinatal center for all their work, for the generosity of the soul, for leaving him, they were not afraid to take on a very difficult case.
Immediately after the birth of our grandson, we had to undergo another chemotherapy, using the very new and expensive drug Perietta, which was to be brought from Germany.
My sister has a good friend in Berlin, a doctor, a native German woman who married a Serb and converted to Orthodoxy. She called all the pharmacies in Berlin and found the one in which they agreed to sell Perrietta to us with a minimal mark-up. I flew to Berlin, bought five ampoules and remembered that the EU has a tax-free tax refund system. But the pharmacist did not even hear anything about special checks that had to be issued. The sister explained to him, he went to look for information on the Internet, printed out the form, filled it out neatly and we went to the airport.
At the airport, the customs officer was surprised at the amount on the form and asked:
- What is so dear to you?
I showed the ampoules and explained why I needed them. Suddenly, the customs officer switched to Russian (apparently, he taught him at school):
- If you give these documents here, at the airport, in the next window, you will receive only 10-11% of the amount, the rest will be taken by the company. This is a lot of money, you will still need it. There is still time until your flight. Go back to the pharmacy, give these documents to the pharmacist and he should return 19% to you.
You should have seen the face of the pharmacist - everything that he thought of himself was written on it. "Why did I contact these Russians!"
But when they explained everything to him and after long consultations with the tax and customs, he left, holding a wad of money in his hands and said:
- Yah, yah, everything is correct, I must return you, here is ain, tsvay, dry ... and one euro cent!
As a result, the medicine cost us almost half what we thought.
The medicine began to work miraculously. A week later, my daughter told me that she felt with her fingers and realized that the tumor had disintegrated into several grains. Three weeks later, when I was taking her to the next procedure, she said that there was a small tumor, the size of a grain of rice. An ultrasound scan confirmed her assumption!
A few days later D.L. Stroyakovsky called:
- Stalik, another woman has the same diagnosis as your daughter. But everything is very neglected, already the fourth stage and metastases are everywhere. Can you help her buy such a medicine?
Yulia Belousova called me. I began to explain to her. And she says:
- Okay, I'll get a visa in two weeks, I'll fly ...
Out of indignation, I switched to "you":
- What are you? Do you understand what you are saying? What two weeks? Come to me, I will give you a medicine, do it tomorrow! Then you fly off and bring it to me!
We became friends, began to call up often and flew to Berlin for medicine in turn. Good woman Julia, she has a great boyfriend husband, Dmitry, they have two teenage children. It was very important for me that Yulia also stayed. And she will live as long as she will prick this Perietta. That's what doctors say, at least.
The family of Yulia and Dmitry was well-off, but their money began to melt rapidly. She called me, cried:
- I so wanted to finish building this house, and now it has to be sold, in a crisis, for half the price.
And suddenly one day she says:
- Stalik, did you know that the Moscow region received a small amount of Perietta, did the state buy it?
And I went to the State Duma, to the Healthcare Committee. He came and told everything. I was listened to by the chairman of the Committee, deputy Kalashnikov S.V. and said:
- We will try to help you. Go to my assistant, write a statement, he will deal with your question.
I went to the assistant and cheated. Let Sergei Vyacheslavovich Kalashnikov forgive me, but I entered a second name in the application - Yulia Belousova.
Two months later, the assistant reported the good news that a positive decision had been made to purchase the medicine for my daughter and Julia. But now, according to the Public Procurement Law, our lot is put up for auction and we have to wait for the allotted time.
Please listen carefully, read these lines. These are cancer drugs. From cancer, people sometimes die in a matter of weeks. They burn out like matches. But cancer drugs must be purchased under the Public Procurement Law. And wait for the allotted time. Not a day before!
Yulia and I still had money, we could buy this medicine on our own. But people who can afford such purchases are fine if only a fraction of the interest. And the rest ?!
Wait! We were given three ampoules per hand. They promised to give the rest of the ampoules later. But two months later, we went to the pharmacy, but ... there were no medicines, we did not receive them. I flew to Berlin again. A month later, again, no. And again. I didn’t bother the deputy, but called his assistant. He was indignant:
- How it is? Purchased for you for the entire course of treatment! I'll find out.
They gave out two ampoules. And again, no. Again I flew to Berlin, again called the State Duma. They gave out two more ampoules.
The third time, a big scandal arose and the remaining ampoules were given out all at once.
Do you know how these drugs were dispensed? No passport, no signature. Dmitry came, "I am the husband of the sick Yulia Belousova," and he is given three ampoules worth 900,000 rubles. Do you understand who needs muddy water and why in this matter?
Yes, exactly to those who sell these drugs on the Internet: http://aptekamos.ru/apteka/price.html?id=75337&r=1
These medicines should not be sold overnight. Consider that each ampoule is played by someone. Do you understand, yes? There are people who decide for themselves who should see the red sun, who should pat the child on the head, and who should not. And they redistribute the years and months of the life of those who have no money in favor of those who have money.
THE FURTHER FATE of the 62nd Hospital
There are many cancer hospitals. There are those where doctors are a little less indifferent, there are those where they are a little less than completely indifferent. Many have come to terms with the fact that their patients do not receive medicines, they operate on antediluvian equipment, and do not have the opportunity to do a CT scan.
Hospital 62 is wonderful. In addition to Karina and Yulia, several of my friends have been cured in this hospital over the past time. My close friend, also a doctor from Fergana, took his son to Israel. I convinced him to come back and be treated here, in the 62nd. My friend, KMN himself, a resuscitator, was very worried at first. But when we came to the hospital with him and the surgeon showed on the computer a video recording of the operation, where scalpels come out of centimeter tubes, then "sewing machines", then tweezers, some kind of clamps - in general, it all looked like science fiction, like a film from the future, only then did my friend say:
- Yes, I never dreamed of seeing such a thing! Their equipment, of course, is the strongest.
Here is what his son wrote to me, I quote:
My history:
In St. Petersburg, in a private clinic, they diagnosed a stomach tumor. They offered a wait-and-see tactic - whether the tumor will progress. But the parents were convinced that it was necessary to go to Israel for high technologies (to be further examined and operated there, if necessary). I went. There they duplicated all the same examinations in the same form, only the money was siphoned many times more. They offered an operation. While waiting for the results of their examination, he returned to the Russian Federation and was examined at the 62nd Moscow Oncological Hospital. The conclusion and actions of the Israelis were the same as in the 62nd - you need to operate. The operation was offered the same (laparoscopic removal of the tumor), but only in Israel the sum of 22 thousand dollars was raised for this, and even with the proviso that this is "not the final cost", that it may still increase depending on various circumstances (such as lengthening the duration of the operation, the need for "intraoperative" examinations, etc.) In the paid department, the 62nd operation cost me 100 thousand rubles. I'm happy with the result. I liked the hospital: competent, friendly staff, modern equipment, cleanliness and comfort. Many thanks to the chief physician of the hospital Makhson Anatoly Nakhimovich for organizing the work and thanks to the attending physicians Dr. Kaner Yury Yuryevich and Yury Dmitrievich.
I don’t know the surname of Yuri Dmitrievich.
Those who returned to normal life patients, I personally know a few more people. Well, what can I say, here, look at my daughter, these are photographs from the birthday of my grandson:
This is her with her husband and our grandson.
This is with the head physician of the 62nd hospital Makhson A.N.
And this, next to my son-in-law and grandson, Daniil Lvovich Stroyakovsky.
We invited these people to our holiday, because this is their holiday too. Because these people have become dear to us. Because if it were not for their golden hands, I would not be so happy:
The other day my daughter calls:
- Dad, do you know that the 62nd hospital is being closed ?!
I called the head physician. Not that they are shutting down - they are optimizing. Probably, in about the same way as we "optimized" the mammologist, due to whose absence we missed the very beginning of my daughter's illness, why then we had to do two operations, such complex chemotherapy, radiotherapy. Okay, thank God, everything ended well with us - there were medicines, there were knowledgeable doctors, there was equipment. And what will happen to those who fall ill after us?
I understand that there will be people who will say, "Since such treatment is not available to us, let no one have it." Remember - after these words, you stood on the same board with those optimizers who are killing our healthcare. The optimizers will have money for Israel-Germany-America, and if there are sanctions, they will "resolve the issues", but you will not have a single chance at all, because once the BEST hospital is closed, or because the restless Makhson A. N. bothers someone, whether because someone needed a luxurious land plot 14 km from Moscow, I don’t know, I can’t think of a single reason why at least someone could come up with the idea to shut down SUCH hospital. Such hospitals should not be closed or optimized, but their experience should be disseminated. But the experience is that the chief physician should not give a quiet life to officials - to knock, demand, get. And next to such a head physician, golden heads will appear by themselves, like chemotherapist Stroyakovsky, to whom there will be a queue in any country, wherever he works, like surgeon Burlakov, like laboratory assistants - after all, laboratory 62 is one of the best in Europe. Imagine, there are only two laboratories in the whole of Europe, the rating of which is higher than that of the laboratory of the 62nd hospital. And this needs to be optimized, right? Kill, ruin? Don't these people understand that destroying such a hospital is tantamount to building a gas chamber ?! They don't think it's okay - people, you think there, some kind of little people - God sees everything ?! Are they not afraid of him? Or will they pay off with candles, temples? Hey guys, officials, guardians of our budget !!! Why, there are people, and every person is a TEMPLE! There is no need to build temples, they will not atone for your sins there, better help the children so that their mothers live. Yes, these children may not even say thank you, but you yourself will feel like honest people! Or you don’t know what a thrill it is, you don’t know the pleasure of being in harmony with your conscience ?!
I would not share our personal history with the Internet, I would not show you our family photos.
But our story is no longer personal. Because now my daughter is healthy, but anyone can get sick, remember this. This is your story now. Now, dear readers, something also depends on you.
Spread, strike all the bells! Social media has become a significant force, let's use our power to its fullest.
Dear journalists! If you need it, we are ready to communicate, we are ready to tell you everything in more detail than what is described here. Dozens of other patients who have recovered will also tell you everything, and their relatives will tell you about the dead. Remember, both you and your family may end up both in this world and in that one, but it is, alas, not always the Lord God who decides - sometimes officials. So help them make the right decision!
Stalik Khankishiev is a well-known author of books on cooking, TV presenter and blogger. His books are not just collections of recipes, they are a vivid acquaintance with the art of cooking. different countries, their culture, an easy and fun adventure in the world of culinary.

Childhood and youth
Stanislav Huseynovich Khankishiev was born in the family of a teacher of the Polytechnic Institute, an Azerbaijani by nationality, and a German on February 2, 1962 in the Uzbek SSR, in the city of Fergana. He spent his childhood and youth in Uzbekistan. After the collapse of the USSR, he was engaged in small business - he traded in household appliances. Despite his origin, Stalik considers Russian to be his native language. He speaks Azerbaijani and Uzbek superficially.
Cooking is his hobby, which at one time changed the biography of Khankishiev. After the appearance of the Internet, Stalik began to upload texts and photos of his recipes. Most often, he turns to his native oriental cuisine. The most "delicious" recipes are mutton dishes: pilaf, shish kebab, lagman.
Creativity and cooking

Stalik Khankishiev - pilafIn addition to publishing books and participating in television programs, Stalik Khankishiev is a popular blogger known for his explosive disposition. He often becomes a participant in scandalous situations. One of the most notable was the quarrel with Khakim Ganiev, a former friend of Khankishiev in Fergana. The unpaid monetary debt grew into a scandal, which has been discussed on the Internet for more than a year.
The writer also distinguished himself in conflict with. In his blog, he criticized Navalny for filming the country houses of those in power with a hang-glider, having recognized in one of the mansions the house of his friend, who had nothing to do with the authorities.
In July 2016, the Internet exploded another scandal... This time, Stalik Khankishiev criticized the famous culinary blogger Druzhe Oblomov on YouTube (). It all started after the release of the video “Lyulya-kebab. In a blender or with hatchets? Kurdyuk or onion? ”, Where, in his usual humorous manner, Druzhe Oblomov talks about preparing minced meat for kebabs in an unconventional way (using a blender).
Such "blasphemy" caused indignation among the venerable culinary specialist Stalik, who burst out with an angry denunciation of the violation of the canons of Central Asian cuisine on his official page "Live Journal", where he used phrases like "To use a blender for chopping meat is simply suckery." This caused a storm of indignation among the subscribers of Druzhe Oblomov.
Glorious Friendship Oblomov (right) Note that Oblomov, in turn, responded to the criticism of the "master" respectfully:
“Stalik, you are just a holy person. If I, from the height of your experience and your years, saw my videos on YouTube (with all the jambs, mistakes, outright profanity), I certainly would not be shy in expressions. "
Personal life
Stalik Khankishiev sparingly comments on his personal life. It is known that the culinary specialist is married. He has a daughter, Karina. Not so long ago, the Internet was stirred up by the frank story of a famous culinary specialist about the tragedy in his family. While pregnant, Karina learned that she had breast cancer. The diagnosis was delayed, so the disease was detected already at the third stage.
Karina was cured at the 62nd Oncological Hospital in Moscow. The Stalik thanked the doctors from the bottom of his heart for saving the life of his daughter and grandson. As fate willed, he became associated with the 62nd hospital and, as a public figure, could not ignore its problems.
In 2017, Stalik Khankishiev wrote a number of articles on corruption in medicine. In addition, Khankishiev is waging a "war" with Moscow officials on his blog. We are talking about his suspicions of fraud related to the procurement of drugs for cancer patients and tenders for the purchase of medical equipment.
Today Stalik Khankishiev is not just a TV presenter of programs about delicious food. He, using his wide popularity, tries to convey problems to the public and help if he can.
Most Stalik spends time in a country mansion, where, together with his wife, he likes to meet guests. The kitchen, which occupies the main place in the house, was built by the culinary specialist according to his own design. Here at Khankishiev there is an arched-type fireplace with a built-in cauldron on one side and a wood-burning stove on the other, which sometimes turns into an additional work surface. Behind the first fireplace is the second - with a barbecue grill. Ovens and other paraphernalia of modern cuisine are also located here.

The main goal of the home menu in the East is to feed a large family well with a very modest budget.
The culinary writer, connoisseur of oriental cuisine and the author of the book "Kazan, barbecue and other men's pleasures" told us about the principles proper nutrition and Central Asian traditions of economy.
- In Russian cuisine, cutting costs in the field of cooking usually comes down to reducing the amount of meat and fruits - seasonal vegetables, cereals, bread begin to dominate in the diet ... And how do they reduce the cost of food in the East?
Glory to Allah, during my life in Uzbekistan, I never thought of how to cut costs. Vice versa, long time I was looking for ways to make our diet more varied, and was ready to bear the increasing costs of purchasing food. First of all, this happened because the basis of the Uzbek cuisine is a rather economical consumption of products and their full use. The main goal of the home menu is to feed a large a large family with a very modest budget.
- And how did this happen in practice?
In Uzbekistan, many families cooked, using meat very sparingly, and sometimes even doing without it - even in pilaf. At the same time, root crops, vegetables and cereals have always played an important role in nutrition. And I can tell you that the amount of meat in Uzbek dishes does not greatly affect their final taste. But the skillful use of the simplest products, when the chef spares no time in cooking, leads to amazing results. Dishes that cost a penny turn out to be just as tasty as food from the most pompous restaurants. Remember the surprise of tourists who have visited Central Asia: their main impression is a very cheap and tasty catering. In the same way, Uzbeks cook at home, and even more economically than in public catering. Poor people eat more bread - when with fruit, and when with dairy products, fortunately tandoors - ovens for baking bread - were in every yard and every family tried to have their own milk from their own cow. In general, a hot flatbread and a cup of cool sour milk is a good breakfast, and dried fruits served with tea are much healthier than any sweets.
- In your book, you write about dishes that are not quite everyday - different types pilaf, dishes on the grill ... Today, for many people, the perfect products necessary for their preparation will become unavailable. Maybe give some practical advice on how to cook something bright, tasty in oriental style from inexpensive products?
Yes, festive dishes have become symbols of my book. And saving on a holiday is bad form. Therefore, I urged to generously lay meat, to use fat tail fat, and not vegetable oil, persuaded to buy the best varieties of rice. And in general, I did not set myself the task of writing a documentary portrait of Uzbek cuisine. early XXI century, rather the opposite - he tried to glorify a certain ideal.
Biography of Stalik Khankishiev
But I find it strange that many, reading my book, did not notice that along with the holiday there is also everyday life: the dishes are very simple and very economical. Probably, they seemed to the readers as tasty as pilaf and shish kebab, so not everyone recognized that they were made from very simple and inexpensive products.
- For example?
Well, judge for yourself, average-priced meat in many dishes is balanced by cheap potatoes, while in others, several kilograms of cereals, beans and vegetables are consumed per kilogram of meat. As a result, the food turns out to be a full cauldron - enough to feed a large family and invite guests. After all, a chicken skewer costs the same as a chicken coated with mayonnaise, it just tastes differently. I think that eating sparingly does not in any way mean eating badly.
- What are the tips general Could you give people who are forced to do with simple products today, but are accustomed to food that is tasty, uncommon, properly and competently cooked?
First of all, I would like to ask all readers to save on anything other than food. Even if it seems impossible, then you should replace some of the costs ... with your own labor. Well, nothing, if you have eaten in cafes and restaurants for the last 5-6 years, now let's get up at the stove and cook all the same at home. Labor and time? Yes, but you will get good food 5-6 times cheaper!
Is this not saving?
- How can this be organized purely technically? Many people today simply do not have time to fully cook at home ...
First of all, you need to understand that now not only the mother of the family, but also its head and children should take care of the preparation of food. In fact, it will take a little more time. But the benefit will be expressed not only in money - listen to me, and you will understand everything. It makes sense to optimize purchases. It is not necessary to buy food every day, but to buy it once a week, and for some products of long storage it is worth going to large stores or wholesale markets. Every day you should buy only fresh bread and some little things. Without expensive wine, your health will not suffer, but it will save the budget great. Yes, and you yourself have long been going to start a healthy lifestyle, I know.
- What products, in your opinion, can be painlessly discarded in the first place?
I would do without expensive imported vegetables, fruits and exotic seafood. Their price includes high transportation costs, considerable profits for resellers and sellers. Did you manage before without strawberries in January and oysters without taking into account the season, all year round? As for vitamins, there are no less of them in sauerkraut. And fermenting a barrel of cabbage is much cheaper than buying a couple of langoustines.
- And what else from what has become familiar to us, in your opinion, can be painlessly sequestered?
Do not buy expensive cut meat or separate "spare parts" from chickens, give up fish cuts. Buy several kilograms of the simplest meat at once, a couple of poultry carcasses, fresh fish and disassemble everything at home. You will have several servings for frying, something for stewing, something for broth.
That's great: immediately put the broth to boil. When they have cooled down, they can be poured into plastic bags and frozen - their quality will not suffer from this. Any day, you just heat up the broth, add noodles, cereals or vegetables to it and get a wonderful soup with a cost price tending to zero. Some food will have to be frozen, but don't be discouraged. Once frozen and gradually, in the plus chamber of the refrigerator, defrosted meat is only slightly inferior to fresh meat. Accept this - it's still better than eating sausage instead of meat, and sausages instead of chickens. By the way, I would also refuse this all sorts of meat processing products. I swear, a piece of meat stuffed with garlic, bacon, grated with spices and baked in the oven is much tastier than any sausages. And what about boiled pork, homemade rolls, galantines, aspic, jellied meat? If you count honestly, without soy and any additives, then all of them will come out much cheaper than purchased. And most importantly, it is tastier and healthier.
- V last years There is a lot of talk about the fact that overeating has become almost a massive illness among urban residents. Maybe in order to save money, we should just eat less?
Yes, in fact, city dwellers do not need so many calories to maintain their lives. We do not get cold and do not waste energy on heating our bodies, we hardly work physically, we move a little. But the fact is that, in addition to calories, vitamins also enter our body with food. By reducing the diet, we also reduce the intake of vitamins and minerals. But this can lead to serious health problems, such that the savings will result in costs for doctors. Trying to compensate for the lack of vitamins and minerals with tablets and dietary supplements is fundamentally wrong. Firstly, vitamins from tablets are absorbed much worse than from good food, and secondly ... you again become victims of business. It's just that if earlier foreign manufacturers and sellers of imported "foodstuffs" made money on you, now, I ask you, do not become dependent on pharmacists and doctors.
- Well, the dreams of losing weight due to the crisis have never come true?
Well, since I almost persuaded you to give up all unnecessary and expensive overseas temptations (since they do not want to buy our oil at a high price), I just have to persuade you about the very little thing - do not try to lose weight by limiting yourself in food. You will lose weight anyway: the bustle in the kitchen requires quite a lot of energy, and as a result of kitchen work, family ties are usually strengthened and calories are naturally lost in the most pleasant way: after dinner, before breakfast and after lunch. At the same time, correct the demographic statistics!
Ingredients: lamb or beef, black pepper,
cumin, coriander, salt, onion juice, mineral water, onions, herbs, grains
pomegranate, tomatoes. 
Let's cut the meat into pieces for barbecue.
Stalik Khankishiev: “The dimensions of the meat pieces directly
depend on what kind of meat it is. If you have lamb, if you have young
lamb, this meat will cook very quickly. Hence and cut it
can be smaller. And if you have meat that needs to be cooked like
it follows, then it must be cut in larger pieces. " 
We crush the necessary spices for barbecue in a mortar.
Stalik Khankishiev: “Some people think that in the barbecue
the main thing is spices. I also really like spices, but I just take
pepper, a little cumin and necessarily a little coriander. But I have one
secret. I crush and grind the spices just before pickling.
meat, then the smell comes from them, then they give the taste. And the crushed ones will stand
spices for a day or two, and that’s not it at all. ” 
Sprinkle the pounded spice mixture over the meat and salt.
Stalik Khankishiev: “The amount of salt is also very important
moment. For two kilograms of meat, I take a little less than a tablespoon
salt ". 
Let's prepare the marinade.
Stalik Khankishiev
Pour a jug of onion juice and a jug of mineral water into a dish with a kebab.
Stalik Khankishiev: “In order to make a shish kebab
soft, I have two secret ingredients - onion juice and mineral water.
I minced the onion and then squeezed the onion juice out of it. A
I add mineral water because highly carbonated mineral water
softens meat. Either these bubbles affect
the mineral composition influences, but it is so, we need to use it. "
While the meat is marinating, we will strongly heat the cauldron so that the meat sticks to the walls. Stick the pieces of barbecue to the walls of the cauldron.
Stalik Khankishiev: “Marinade must be drained and properly
warm up the cauldron. Preheat to such an extent that a piece of meat to it
stuck. The cauldron is so hot that when the meat touches it, it is already
hisses, and all the moisture with which it was saturated in
marinade ". 
When all the pieces of meat are distributed over the cauldron, close it with a lid and leave the meat to cook.
Stalik Khankishiev: “There will be the same taste and smell that
usually rises above the barbecue. After about 30 minutes, the pieces of meat will start
fall off the walls of the cauldron and fall down. By that time, at the bottom of the cauldron
the juice will collect, the melted fat will collect, and the meat there
get ready. That's it, nothing needs to be done, all that remains is to prepare the dish! "
Open the cauldron lid and put the meat on a serving dish.
Stalik Khankishiev: “It smells so hard to resist.
With my soul I feel that it’s ready! It remains only to mix with the resulting sauce.
Serve on a platter decorated with, for example, only tomatoes. " 
Decorate the dish with a mixture of onions and herbs and pomegranate seeds.
Stalik Khankishiev: “Well, does it look like a barbecue? A kebab
do not serve without onions. Be sure to sprinkle with onions mixed with herbs. AND
you know what, some people sprinkle this onion with vinegar. But I think if you feel like it
acidity, it is better than a pomegranate seed, you just can't think of anything. Ready
kebab, ready-made kebab!
Bon Appetit!".

On the essence of the term "guest worker".
Who is this man? Someone who came for a short time to earn extra money.
But ... I did not come to Moscow, I returned to the capital of my Motherland.
How long?
I think that for a very long time.
Stalik Khankishiev - biography, photos, personal life, recipes, videos and latest news
As they say in the East, "you can be a guest only for the first three days." Well, now, three days have expired last year and, therefore, in the future, you may not consider me a guest and you should no longer extend the laws of your hospitality to me. Thanks! 🙂
Earn extra money?
Sorry, but for those who are seriously interested in this (or rather, those whose interests are limited to such things), I can say that so far I live mainly on a fee from a book you know. And I did this job while living in Fergana. That is, now I, in fact, live what I earned from my previous work in Uzbekistan.
In addition, I had no economic reason to leave Uzbekistan. Materially, we have always lived very well. Whether it was easy or very difficult, we lived much better than everyone around us. How many of you do housekeepers, gardeners, and drivers come to visit? Well, and to those to whom they come, do the thoughts come along with them that they need to leave their big and beautiful house and go somewhere in order to earn extra money?
As for my work as the chief editor of the gurman.tv website, now I can tell you something that was previously hidden.
This project was a trial balloon in a much larger business. Alas, it didn't work out. It was not the project that failed, not the site itself, but a more ambitious business. I don’t think anyone will be surprised by my story about what exactly did not work out there and why, especially since it was not mine, but a person you know, and I was only invited to participate in the creation of the site with the promise of some prospects in a big deal.
Talk about money? Well, those who are interested can calculate for themselves how much I could get there. And everyone else will understand that I didn’t go there for the money.
To tell the truth, I have always been interested in creative work, and activities on a schedule and outside the creative field are boring. And here, it is clear that I could not refuse the video content shot before me, and I myself could not shoot anything new, except myself, my beloved. But filming yourself, cooking, filming and photographing, editing and processing - all this took a lot of time, and there was little sense on the site. I invited people from outside, from LJ, etc., to post their materials on the site. It was getting more interesting, but what was my role in this? Find and negotiate? Well, when I saw that on this very site I was becoming more and more an administrator, a technical worker, but not a "creative unit", I left there.
Yes, but it happened back in mid-May. But, in order not to let down another person you know, I left on the site quite a few of my recipes and photographs, which appeared there for almost three more months, so that the impression was created that Stalik continued to participate in the project.
Do you understand? It was interesting - I worked, I got bored - I left. Thank God for the time being He allows me to feel free enough to make such elementary decisions. / The fact that the big deal would not take place became clear much later than my departure, i.e. one is not the other reason /.
So what else?
My future plans?
Why tell everyone about it at once?
I will tell everyone at once only the main thing: everything is fine, but it will be very good.
If I want, I think that it’s better for me - I’ll return to Uzbekistan, if I want, I will stay here. And it is never too late to leave to live anywhere in the world. Truth?
But now I am very interested here in Moscow. Here and now there is a lot of interesting gastronomic events. There are a lot of my friends, old and new, I am interested in live communication with them. There are many people interesting to me here, and I am interesting to many. This is the main reason for my decision to live in Moscow.
And money? Well, I've been chasing them for the first half of my life. Let them chase me now.
So who is the guest worker here? It seems that many "native Muscovites" are more migrant workers in their own city than I am.
PS Excuse me, all those for whom the main thing is not a stamp in the passport or the fifth column, coupled with the foreskin. I didn't want to offend you.

"What kind of kebab can be chicken ?!" - I have heard more than once. You know, no matter how many times you hear it, one answer will be enough.
And I will not answer to the indignation of the masses, but to the question "what kind of barbecue." And I also want to answer the unasked question "How to cook chicken shashlik, so that the eaters, having finished with the kebab, gnaw each other's fingers, as a sign of love for this magnificent dish.
But here's the thing: I'm used to calling a spade a spade. Chicken means chicken, and place it in broth, or in a dish that should be stewed for a long time. And for barbecue ... of course, chickens! You can also take it in the supermarket, where they are broilers, designed specifically for fast frying, grown according to the method quickly, quickly, which means they are cheap, and each weighing one and a half kilograms. You can even take individual chicken (chicken, sorry) breasts - it will be even easier.
And it will be tastier to buy those brothers of supermarket chickens who were lucky to gain only 400-500 grams of weight in the same few weeks of life. Here they are - nondescript, blue, however, at a price no less than the large and smooth ones in the supermarket. But the difference in weight and appearance there is our payment for their taste. These chickens have a taste, I report, and the taste is not bad.
But we also add something to this taste.
For example, how do you, sorry for the question, eat oranges? What are you doing with the zest? Not with the peel, but with the zest, which can become a wonderful seasoning, or even a full-fledged ingredient in other dishes? I ask because I want to ask you: first peel the zest from the oranges with a vegetable peeler, and only then peel them or squeeze juice from them. The zest will come in handy!
Here, the zest of one orange, half a small head of garlic, half an onion, three lemons, but not so large, and a couple of them were enough, a little good vegetable oil, a little more butter, a little sour cream (and thank you for not straining yogurt ) and ... an infusion of real saffron, which I don't know what to replace. Indispensable infusion of saffron, amen!
Zest, coarse salt, black peppercorns in a mortar and grind into a powder with a festive smell.
Diced onion, a few cloves of garlic, vegetable oil, sour cream, part of the saffron infusion and lemon juice, beat with a blender until smooth. Adjust the amount of lemon juice by taking a sample, I ask you. Don't be too sour - sour cream is sour too, do you understand?
If the taste and aroma of the marinade makes you want to eat it immediately, with plain bread, then refrain - spread it over chicken pieces and place the dishes with them in a cold place for six to eight hours. Well, you can do it for a couple of hours, okay, if you only have chicken breasts, and even those without a chicken skin.
Why are they all ripping off her, I don’t understand!
I know what plans are born in your minds at the sight of so much marinade.
I warn you: do not dare! To grease the chicken while frying, we'll now make another sauce.
Dilute the rest of the saffron infusion with lemon juice and add a few pieces of butter. Doesn't it look like sauce in any way? It's okay, read on!
When stringing chickens onto skewers, try stringing different parts onto different skewers. They are fried in different ways, different time, and even better at different temperatures. Well, it should be borne in mind that the heat passes through the ribs and thighs more slowly, such parts of the carcasses should be fried longer.
I cut those little chickens into four pieces each, legs and thighs to one side, and breast-wings to the other. If they were larger, the division into parts would be more detailed. And with this size, and so it will come down.
Put a cup of sauce for lubrication closer to the heat - let it start to warm up.
Turned over for the first time, and let's grease. But I'll tell you the truth: I gape, turned it over late! There should have been no scorch marks. And as soon as the marinade had dried on the side of the coals, it was immediately necessary to turn it over and grease it with saffron, lemon juice and melting butter.
During frying, the shish kebabs should never dry out, not once!
Let me tell you right away: that is why the frying process takes a little longer than it could get "dry". I will also say: there will be a lot of smoke. And the marinade drips into the coals, and the oil drains and drips there, and everything smokes, smokes, smokes. This is good for the taste of the barbecue, but not very much for the one who stands at the barbecue. Either place the grill so that the smoke is carried away somewhere to the neighbors, and not in your face, or build a normal grill, where the smoke itself goes where it should - directly into the sky, in an even, thick column.
I beg you, do not serve any sauces to this kebab. Give greens, lettuce leaves, fresh vegetables, rice - folding pilaf or even milk pilaf.
If you still don't know how to cook milk pilaf, then please look at one of the posts that I wrote at the beginning of this January while you were resting - there is a table of contents there and there is more than detailed recipe this pilaf.
Until then, enjoy your meal and thank you for your attention if you have read to the end.
If you want to thank me for my work, then the best gratitude from your respected side will be ... refraining from drooling in the comments. Well, really, dear readers, well, it's hard for me to sigh for so many years from such an amazing uniformity.
By the way, if you like active and extreme rest, then this useful information For you! Take a look at the website at the link and read about motorcycle tours, about how you can usefully and enjoy your vacation, see the world from a different angle and test yourself for endurance.

Do you know how they cook kebab potatoes there, in Azerbaijan? Take nice young potatoes very well suited for grilling. Cut it into slices, string it on a skewer and fry it over coals.
What is the end result? Outside, the rings of potatoes turn out to be slightly burnt, resembling potatoes baked in coals. In the middle, the potatoes are very good - crumbly, fragrant, "with a smoke"! And closer to the skewer, in the middle, it usually remains slightly damp.
Do you like raw, undercooked potatoes? So I don't like it either. Therefore, I decided that I would cook such potatoes differently.
First, I remembered that potatoes with lard are very tasty.
Secondly, it was necessary to do something with the uniformity of baking.
Thirdly, it was impossible to lose the charm, brevity and charm of this dish.
A very simple solution for all tasks at the same time was found somehow by itself.

If the potatoes are young (and it seems that it makes no sense to cook such a kebab from another), then it is enough just to wash it before cutting, and, of course, it is not necessary to peel it. And between the slices ... can you cut the bacon thinly? If you can, then you will succeed!
2. Then everything is very simple. If you took salted pork lard, then just cut it up and try it - if it is rather salty, then this salt is enough. No - add a little salt, but not now, but later, when you collect the kebab on the skewer.
3. Do you know how best to string? Collected the pyramid - lard-potato-lard-potato, put it on the board, and pierce it with a skewer from above until the skewer rests on the board. This is less likely to injure your hand with a skewer. We carefully moved the structure towards the handle of the skewer, trying to keep the shape of the potato, and now the next half of the potato is exactly the same. And now, if you took not pork, but fat tail fat, add salt, if you want, top it up, and if you want, sprinkle it with cumin, otherwise you can imagine yourself as a “European cuisine chef” and add rosemary with garlic or thyme. That's it, it's done.
4. Wrap the kebab in foil, secure the ends so that nothing spills onto the coals. For twenty minutes, no less.
5. Take your time - let the bacon melt, let the potatoes steam, cook, soften, and when the aroma from the bacon with potatoes begins to break through the cracks in the foil, unfold, remove the foil and put the skewers on the coals again.
6. Now, already hot, almost ready-made potatoes will brown in a matter of minutes, the bacon will turn into our favorite roast and all that remains is to immediately serve with the words:
- Wonder, lads, yak tsi Uzbeks grease cartoons with bacon! :)
Bon Appetit!

One question haunted me for a long time. Many people here do not like bloggers who close commenting or use grassroots vocabulary, provocations or constant intrusive ads with a bunch of clickable links.
But why the people hate Stalik to such an extent remains a mystery to me. It does not advertise or sell scooters or bicycles. He does not impose on you the services of a paid plastic surgery clinic. He does not write (unlike me) posts that only snobs and fools eat jamon. In his assessment, he is quite reasonable and tactful, shares interesting and useful information ...
Whom did he cross the road to and why such an amount of aggression arouses in people this nice man with a not so often met talent - I don’t understand ... Tell us how you personally feel about Stalik?
Commentators were divided:
russler888 thinks that it is not necessary for everyone to climb with their opinion:
His recipes are excellent, he is a real pro. If someone does not like him or his manner of communication, then do not meddle with your comments and that's it. Just use his advice, no one forces you to comment.
cinecon considers Stalik to be the most ordinary cook, but a brilliant photographer:
What talent are you talking about? If you are talking about the talent of a cook, then this is the deepest delusion. The cook from him is very mediocre, he regularly contradicts himself. Either it is necessary to extinguish the coals, when the fat burns, then it is not necessary. Either it is necessary to marinate the kebab in vinegar, then it is not necessary, etc. His favorite topics are pilaf and kebabs, and what, there are no other dishes? At the villas near Moscow, the Uzbek-Tajik farm assistants on these topics will give Stalik 100 handicap points. And even in these topics, he chops the barbell. He has never described the technology of barbecue caramelization, which any Abkhaz brazier knows from childhood. Really difficult topics. for example, cooking boiled pork from a 5-7 kilogram ham, or baking a leg of mutton at 4-5 kilos, he does not consider at all. He hangs culinary show-offs exclusively in the household plane, at home in the kitchen on his knee, but he will definitely not be able to feed a reception for 300 people in 15-20 minutes with a barbecue. That is why investors do not want to open a restaurant "for him", they will not pull.
But Stalik is really strong in photography. Here he just has a pronounced talent. Cinematography graduates from VGIK can envy. The sense of volume, composition, color and light - everything is almost flawless. This is not praise, this is a statement. But alas, it is impossible to feed with the help of photographs. And it is very sad that Stalik is an inveterate Russophobe when he begins to write about economics or politics (and whether these are his topics), from him, his dislike in Russia and the Russian people just rushes.
artemurubkov I am sure that he has every right to give advice, and Stalik is obliged to listen to them:
Let me emphasize that my principle is to be polite and not offend people until the first rude answer. I commented to him in the spirit of “Why did you attack them like that? People are people, and your creativity, like art, can be much higher than what people have to cook for themselves. And people need illusions in order to more easily experience the difference. "
As a result, I got a comment ban from him with an answer like “You are too young to teach me! And even years later you will be uninteresting to me. " I think most people who are unhappy with him have faced a similar preconceived bad attitude towards themselves ...
