Pigs in a Blanket Wreath
I love pigs in a blanket… they would always be served for parties when I was growing up, so I guess they remind me of happy times. I also love how easy they are to make. So this Holiday Season, I thought of serving them in a special way and I made the most delicious…
Pizza Christmas Tree
I love puff pastry treats! They remind me of my childhood as they would always be part of all our festive spreads. This Pizza Christmas Tree is very easy and quick to make and it looks impressive. It would definitely make for a great appetiser idea to serve to family and friends this coming Christmas….
Thanksgiving 2017 Round Up
I know, I know… I am not American and I don’t live in the USA either. However, the majority of my readers, do. So, with Thanksgiving coming up, I thought it would be nice to put together a little Round-Up specifically for this occasion. Probably not many of you know that the first time I…
Meatball Marsala
A few weeks ago, I shared with you the recipe for Veal Marsala. Today instead I am back with a modern twist to the classic recipe. In fact, I will show you how to make Meatball Marsala. The sauce is not exactly the same as the one used for Veal Marsala, so make sure you…
Danubio
Today I am going to share with you a traditional recipe from Naples: Danubio. It can be considered the “cousin” of both savoury baba and casatiello. Danubio is a savoury brioche made up of many small balls filled with a variety of fillings. It is often prepared for Easter, but not only. It is traditionally…
Ham and Cheese Frittata Roll
Frittata is my favourite way to eat eggs. My mother would make it once a week: Saturday at lunch. I love the fact that you can add many different ingredients and turn it into a completely new dish every time. The one I used to like the most while growing up was with fried potatoes,…
Beef Carpaccio alla Cipriani
Chilled, tender slices of thin beef paired with Cipriani sauce make Beef Carpaccio alla Cipriani a refreshing starter with light flavours, ideal for warm days or simple menus.
Fiadoni
This year’s Easter recipe is Fiadoni. Fiadoni are a typical Easter dish from Abruzzo, in Central Italy. They are savoury ravioli, filled with cheese and then baked until golden brown. Usually, the cheese is a mix of dry grated sheep’s milk cheese (like Pecorino Romano) and a milder, less aged sheep’s milk cheese. I used…
Walnut Spelt Bread
I absolutely adore baking bread. The aroma that comes out of the oven and spreads around the house when I bake bread just puts a smile on my face. My go-to recipe for home-made bread is definitely my ciabatta because it is very quick and easy to make. However, I also like to use spelt…

As Valentine’s Day is just around the corner, I thought of putting together a roundup of a few of my favourite recipes that I think would work great for a romantic dinner. Ready to drool?? Here goes MsM’s Valentine’s Day Recipe Roundup for 2017!
Ham and Stracchino Pinwheels
I recently made these Ham and Stracchino Pinwheels and it was love at first bite! I think these will make it to our dinner table during the Holiday Season. They make a great addition to any buffet! I love anything made with puff pastry, but these pinwheels are special. The stracchino cheese is what sets…
Sicilian Bell Pepper Involtini
Today’s recipe is a very simple appetiser or side dish idea: Sicilian Bell Pepper Involtini. I love capsicums (or bell peppers), I always have. I have already shared a Bell Pepper Involtini recipe before, but this one is different. They are filled with what we call the ”Zangaras’ trademark”, as we use this same stuffing…
Parmigiano Reggiano Brutti ma Buoni
Today’s recipe is a savoury variation of the more famous sweet Brutti ma Buoni (click here for the sweet recipe that I have already shared a while ago). Brutti ma Buoni are cookies made in Lombardy, the region I was born and grew up in, mainly to utilize leftovers – especially egg whites and nuts….

Layers of roasted eggplant, sweet tomatoes, and gooey cheese make this Sicilian Eggplant Bake taste like home-cooked perfection.
Olive Breadsticks
Made from a simple dough and shaped into thin sticks, these Olive Breadsticks are baked with olives for a savoury snack perfect for sharing.
Tuna Ricotta Balls
Today I am going to share with you the recipe for Tuna Ricotta Balls. They are crunchy savoury bites the whole family will love. These croquettes are baked and not fried, so they are also quite healthy and they make the perfect appetiser or snack idea. I love anything with tuna (remember my Italian Tuna…
Swordfish Caponata
A Sicilian classic with a seafood twist, Swordfish Caponata blends tender eggplant and firm fish in a rich sweet and sour tomato glaze.
Warm Pizza Dip
You know how I always complain about “Australian mozzarella”? It always feels like plastic and it never stretches enough, like real mozzarella should. Remember my video on how mozzarella is made in Italy? Well, my dear Sydneysiders, I have great news for you. I found a place that makes very good fresh mozzarella: La Stella…
Curried Chicken Salad
If you like having something prepared ahead, this Curried Chicken Salad holds its texture well and stays fresh for days. Easy to portion and simple to serve.
Skinny Tuna Sushi Roll
Homemade sushi night made simple with a Skinny Tuna Sushi Roll full of lean tuna, creamy mayo, and fresh cucumber crunch.
Eggplant Caviar
Eggplant is one of my favourite ingredients when it comes to make anything with vegetables. It is a very common ingredient in Italian cooking, especially in the south where it is present at almost every meals during the summer months, when eggplant is at its best. Today I will share with you a recipe for…
Pinzimonio (Tuscan Crudités)
Pinzimonio is a traditional Italian crudités platter served with olive oil and vinegar for dipping. It comes together in minutes and makes a fresh appetiser or colourful platter.
Shredded Chicken Salad with Ranch Dressing
It must be quite hot up in the Northern hemisphere. It’s the middle of winter here in Australia, but as it never really gets “cold” (not the cold I am used to anyway), I still like to have salads, especially for lunch. Today’s salad is a very easy one and it uses leftover chicken. I…
