My family’s favourite Sunday roast is my Roast Brined Chicken. It is very moist and because we all like it so much, I usually buy a big chicken so that we get leftovers for the following day. I usually make a classic Chicken Salad with the leftover chicken, but this time I thought of trying something…
Baked Goats Cheese Rolls with Honey and Thyme #SundaySupper
Welcome to this week’s #SundaySupper event which is all about “mum”. Yes, we are celebrating our mothers and cooking up one of their favourite recipes in honour of the upcoming Mother’s Day!
Sweet Yogurt Burek
I discovered today’s recipe by chance. I had some filo pastry in my fridge that begged to be used before drying out and some yogurt that was close to its expiry date. So I was delighted to be able to put them together in this delicious Sweet Yogurt Burek. But what is Burek? It is…
Walnut Roquefort Sables
If you follow Manu’s Menu, you will know how much I love blue cheese. It is my absolute favourite cheese! I love how pungent it is and I use it a lot in my cooking. I made these Walnut Roquefort Sables for Christmas and even my husband, who on the contrary is not a fan…
Aloo Tikki Chaat
I am really happy to share today’s recipe on the blog as it is one of my all time favourite Indian dishes: Aloo Tikki Chaat. But what is it exactly? Chaat is a term that describes savory snacks, typically served on the road from stalls or food carts… street food basically. And you know how…
Eggless Chocolate Salami
I am very excited about today’s recipe! You may remember that, a few months ago, I shared the recipe for the classic Chocolate Salami. That’s the recipe I grew up eating and it will always have a special place in my heart. However, after publishing it, I got many requests for an eggless version. As…
Korokke
Korokke (コロッケ) were my youngest daughter’s favourite snack during our trip to Japan! Korokke are potato croquettes coated in panko and then deep fried. In Japan you can find many different kinds of korokke and I have already shared with you the recipe for Beef Korokke and Cheese Korokke. Today’s recipe is the basic version…
Blue Cheese, Pear and Walnut Triangles
If you know me, you will know how much I love blue cheese. It is my absolute favourite cheese. I like all kinds but the ones I prefer are Gorgonzola and Roquefort, so I often have some in my fridge. As I had some filo pastry remaining from making Burek, I thought of using it…
Nutellotti #WorldNutellaDay
Sara from Ms. Adventures in Italy and Michelle from Bleeding Espresso have declared February 5th “World Nutella Day″ – “a day to celebrate, to get creative with, and most importantly, to EAT Nutella”.
Spiced Potato Wedges with Easy Sweet Chilli Sauce
It is time again for the “Secret recipe club” reveal! I am sure you all know what the club is about, but for the few of you who still don’t know about it, here goes a brief explanation. It is a great concept… each month you are assigned a participating food blogger to make a…
Onion Schiacciata
Today’s recipe is from the regions of Tuscany and Umbria, in central Italy. Schiacciata is very similar to focaccia, but it is much easier to make than the traditional Focaccia from Genoa. The term schiacciata literally means “pressed” and it refers to the fact that you need to press the dough down with your fingers…
Panettone Gastronomico
If you are one of MsM’s Newsletter subscribers, you may have noticed that today I was supposed to share a different recipe. The truth is I was not sure I would make it in time to work on this Panettone post as I made it for Christmas, but as it is something that Italians do…
Panforte di Siena
Today I’d like to share with you a traditional Christmas recipe from the beautiful Tuscan town of Siena: Panforte di Siena. Literally, panforte means “strong bread” which refers to its spicy flavour and it is a very ancient recipe. It appears that panforte was already made in the 1200’s and guess what? It used to…
Chai Shortbread Cookies
Shortbread cookies have always been my favourites. I love the fact that they are buttery and not overly sweet and I also like experimenting with different shapes and flavours. This time I gave my shortbread an Indian twist. We love Chai at our place and we always have some during the colder months of the…
Sticky Chinese 5 Spice Wings
You can never have enough chicken wings recipes! That’s one of my favourite mottos. They are great for entertaining and for footy night and I am yet to meet someone who doesn’t like them. Today’s recipe is delicious: sticky, sweet, spicy, tangy and hearty thanks to the Chinese 5 Spice Mix. These wings are baked…
Prosciutto, Goat’s Milk Ricotta and Rockmelon Skewers
As I promised, today I am back with an idea on how to use the home-made Goat’s Milk Ricotta from my latest post. Today’s recipe is the perfect summer appetiser, but it also works well as a palate cleanser any time of the year. It looks very elegant, but it is actually very easy to make. If…
Parma Burger
My kids love burgers, so in an attempt to keep their meals as healthy as possible, I usually make them at home. I always make my own beef patties as I like to play around with flavours and these Parma Burgers were an instant hit. These burgers have an Italian twist. The patties are made…
Onion Pakoras
Vimala was our host for the November Daring Cooks challenge and she invited us to try our hands at some Indian snacks and treats. What amazing timing… as Indians have just celebrated Diwali – the festival of lights. I am very happy to share with all of you the recipe for one of my favourite Indian…
Bell Pepper Involtini
Today’s recipe is a very simple appetiser idea: Bell Pepper Involtini. I like to serve these involtini as part of a buffet or a barbecue and they are always a hit. They are very easy to make and I love how colourful they look. Besides, they should be served at room temperature, so you don’t…
Grissini Torinesi
Grissini, aka breadsticks, are a weakness of mine. They originate from the Italian city of Turin, in Piedmont and they have been around for centuries! I love how crunchy they are and I often serve them wrapped in prosciutto as an appetiser or aperitivo. I even like to dip them in Nutella, when I am…
Halloween Ghosts
I can’t believe Halloween is almost here! Where did the time fly? I love this time of year… I love going trick or treating the kids and seeing their happy faces when they collect candies! And I love the fact that Christmas is around the corner. Off course, I would enjoy it more if it…
Three-Ingredient Nutella Doughnuts
It is time again for the “Secret recipe club” reveal! I am sure you all know what the club is about, but for the few of you who still don’t know about it, here goes a brief explanation. It is a great concept… each month you are assigned a participating food blogger to make a…
Chocolate Salami
I am very excited about today’s recipe, as it is such a classic of Italian cooking. I cannot believe I haven’t shared it already! Chocolate Salami is found in many regions in Italy and there are many variations to the recipe, depending on where you are eating it. The base is always the same: chocolate…
Tonkatsu Sandwich
I first had Tonkatsu Sandwiches when we bought them in Shin-Osaka on our way to Hiroshima/Miyajima and it was love at first bite. The bread was so soft and the meat was crunchy, yet tender and juicy: it was perfection in a sandwich. I also really liked the sauce in it, but my daughters were…
Cheese Korokke #SundaySupper
This week the Sunday Supper team is sharing Asian recipes!!! And, as you know, I have been sharing a few Japanese recipes lately, so this week’s theme couldn’t have come at a better time! During our recent Japanese holiday, we had so much amazing food. Korokke (コロッケ) were my youngest daughter’s favourite snack! Korokke are potato…
Pesto Pinwheels
For parties, I always serve something made with puff pastry. It is somewhat due to my Italian heritage… I can’t remember a birthday party without puff pastry treats. We have them with anchovies, sausages, or all kinds of vegetables and even pizza ones. You name it. I love to make both sweet and savoury treats….
Chicken Karaage
Chicken Karaage is a classic Japanese fried chicken dish. It’s so popular in Japan that you can find it in all izakaya, depachika, supermarkets and street food stalls. In fact, we had quite a bit of Karaage during our Japanese holiday. One of my most vivid memories of our trip is eating Karaage under the…
