Green Lasagne with Stracchino, Artichokes and Sausage

GREEN LASAGNE WITH STRACCHINO, ARTICHOKES AND SAUSAGE

When I think of comfort food, the first image that comes to my mind is a plate full of lasagne… no matter how they are made (with a classic beef sauce, with pesto or with any other ingredients), lasagne represent comfort food to me (and the majority of Italians).  They are easily going to be…

This is one of those recipes that I have been making for such a long time that I do not even remember where I got it from!  It is very simple, yet delicious.  The pork is tender, juicy, sweet and tangy.  I love to serve it with fried artichokes, the way my mum makes them. …

Lamb and Artichoke Stew

Lamb and Artichoke Stew

Today’s recipe is a delicious Italian dish: Lamb and Artichoke Stew. My mum would often make it when artichokes were in season and it would often be on our Easter menu as well, as Italians usually eat lamb for the occasion. Growing up, I was not a big fan of lamb, but this dish used…

It is sort of like a variation…

During our recent holiday in Italy, we spent 3 days in Rome. Rome is famous, even among Italians, for its food. It is considered delicious, hearty and the essence of comfort food. And I couldn’t agree more. Needless to say, food was one of the highlights of our short stay and today I will share…

Home-made Limoncello

Home-made Limoncello #SundaySupper

Artichoke and Taleggio Risotto

Artichoke and Taleggio Risotto

Today I want to share another of my risotto recipes.  As you know, I like risotto probably more than pasta and I make it often.  Actually, as it can be made so quickly, I often make it for lunch when I am home alone.  Yes, you read that right!  Unlike what many people think, risotto…

Artichoke Frittata

Artichoke Frittata

While growing up, Saturday lunch was usually a frittata at my place.  My mum has always loved frittata and it was a good weekly break from our pasta, fish and meat meals.  I used to go to school on Saturdays (yep, we used to go to school 6 days a week…) and I would come…
