GREEN TAGLIATELLE WITH TUNA AND RICOTTA
Today I want to share with you a dish that is very dear to my heart. It is a very simple recipe, but if made with home made pasta it can be a little bit more labour intensive (but so much worth it!). The reason why I love it so much is because it reminds…
BAKED SWORDFISH INVOLTINI
I must admit I am not a huge fish lover. Well, actually that is not exactly true as there is a lot of fish that I do enjoy eating, but the majority of it is very hard to find around here! So, I tend to eat mainly salmon or swordfish, which have always come to…
STUFFED CAPSICUMS – PEPERONI RIPIENI
I love capsicums (or bell peppers!), I always have. I like them in any shape or form and made in any sorts of ways, but this is by far my favourite recipe. My mum would make these often, and the house would be filled with the aromas of baked capsicums… yum! So hearthy! The filling…
RASPBERRY GLAZED CHICKEN WINGS
Do you like chicken wings? I love them. It is not something I grew up eating. In fact I never used to eat them back in Italy, but since moving to Australia I have begun to appreciate them. I had some wings in my freezer and some raspberry jam left over from another recipe, so…
POLENTA CONCIA
Rachael of pizzarossa was our August 2012 Daring Cook hostess and she challenged us to broaden our knowledge of cornmeal! Rachael provided us with some amazing recipes and encouraged us to hunt down other cornmeal recipes that we’d never tried before – opening our eyes to literally 100s of cuisines and 1000s of new-to-us recipes!…
FAGIOLI ALL’UCCELLETTO
Today’s Regional Italian dish is from Tuscany and more specifically from the beautiful city of Florence. It is a very simple yet tasty recipe that can be served as a vegetarian/vegan main dish or, as it is common in Tuscany, as a side to barbecued Italian sausages. Fagioli all’uccelletto is an ancient recipe made of…
FOCACCIA AL POMODORO – CHERRY TOMATO FOCACCIA
After sharing with you the Basic Focaccia recipe, the recipe for Focaccia with Olives and the one for Onion Focaccia, today I am going to post the recipe for another one of my favourites: Focaccia al pomodoro (aka cherry tomato focaccia)! I remember as a child going to the baker right after school and buying a piece…
TROFIE WITH WALNUT SAUCE
Today I want to share with you one of my favourite recipes. Well, it is actually a double recipe as I am going to show you how to make Trofie from scratch with a tutorial AND how to make a delicious, very simple and light walnut sauce to serve them with. Trofie are my absolute…
MASALA DOSA
The first time I ate a masala dosa I was still quite new to Indian food. I think it was the second Indian dish I had ever had (the first being tandoori chicken) and I loved it so much that it quickly became one of my favourite take-away dishes. More than 10 years have passed…
DOSA AND COCONUT CHUTNEY
Over the next couple of days I am going to share with you some South Indian recipes. Today I will show you how to make a “basic” dosa from scratch. Dosas are very thin and crispy crêpes, made from a fermented batter of blended lentils and rice. They are delicious and I can never get…
BAKED FETA
After hosting the June 2012 Daring Cooks’ challenge and making a few batches of Cannelloni, I was even more curious to see what this month’s challenge would be! I must admit, I had never thought about what goes “behind the scenes” of one of these challenges, but after hosting one I can tell you… it’s a…
CAVATELLI CON RAGÙ DI MAIALE
Today’s Regional Italian dish comes from the small region of Molise, in the South of Italy (though, to be precise, the same dish with small variations is widespread in many other Southern regions, like Puglia or Campania or Basilicata). Molise is a small but beautiful region, famous for its pasta and extra virgin olive oil. …
FALSOMAGRO
When I think of Sunday lunches as a child, I think of this dish. I guess you could say this was our family’s equivalent of a Sunday roast. My mum would often prepare this when we had friends over and it has always been one of my all time favourite meat dishes. When I moved…
PUMPKIN GNOCCHI WITH BUTTER AND SAGE
I love making flavoured gnocchi and these pumpkin gnocchi are particularly tasty. They are actually made with a mix of potatoes and pumpkin, so they are as soft and pillowy as potato gnocchi, with a hint of pumpkin flavour and colour. Don’t they look beautiful? I like to make these especially in autumn/winter when pumpkins…
CHICKEN SALAD
I must admit that I had my very first chicken salad when I visited the USA in 1997. Yes… quite late in life (well, I am not THAT old, but the point is, it is not a dish I grew up eating!). I am not sure why, but it is not something my family would…
Roasted Chicken with Potatoes (Pollo al Forno con Patate)
The holidays can be busy, but Roasted Chicken with Potatoes (Pollo al Forno con Patate) keeps things simple, one pan, a few ingredients, and the flavour of home.
CANNELLONI AL PESTO
Today I am going to share with you the last of the recipes that I provided to my fellow Daring Cooks for this month’s challenge. It is another one of my favourites as I love pesto and making cannelloni with it takes this dish to a new dimension! I have also shown them how to…
CANNELLONI WITH RICOTTA, HAM AND FONTINA
After sharing my Cannelloni di magro and Cannelloni di carne recipes, today I am back to share with all of you my recipes from the challenge I hosted at the Daring Cooks’! This is a recipe I found while browsing the web and it is the only one that was not a “family recipe”. I…
CANNELLONI DI CARNE
As you know, I am hosting this month’s challenge at the Daring Cooks and I challenged my fellow daring cooks to make Italian Cannelloni from scratch! After posting about the first recipe I shared with them (Cannelloni di magro), today I will show you how to make beef and pork Cannelloni, which is another classic…
CANNELLONI DI MAGRO
If you have read yesterday’s post, you will know that I am hosting this month’s challenge at the Daring Cooks! I chose to challenge my fellow daring cooks to make Italian Cannelloni from scratch, including fresh pasta and sauces! I also shared 4 different recipes with them and I am also going to share them…
THE DARING COOKS’ JUNE 2012 CHALLENGE: CANNELLONI
Manu from Manu’s Menu was our Daring Cooks lovely June hostess and has challenged us to make traditional Italian cannelloni from scratch! We were taught how to make the pasta, filling, and sauces shared with us from her own and her family’s treasured recipes! WHAT?? Yes, you read that right!!! I was this month’s hostess…
GNOCCHI ALLA SORRENTINA
This week’s Regional Italian dish comes from Campania and more precisely from Sorrento. I am sure that all of you have heard of this beautiful coastal village, which is renowned for its world famous lemons (from which the best limoncello is made). I would love to share with you the recipe for limoncello, but as…
Mushroom and Asiago Calzoni
Filled with mushrooms, speck, and melted Asiago, these calzoni make dinner quick and satisfying. Mushroom and Asiago Calzoni bake up crisp outside and soft inside for a balanced, hearty meal.
SEEKH KEBAB
Today I want to share with you the recipe for one of my favourite Indian/Pakistani dishes: seekh kebab. Whenever we eat out, we never fail to order some as an appetiser. They are made of minced lamb with spices and are cooked on skewers, traditionally in a tandoor oven. They are usually served with hari…

PIZZAIOLA BEEF SCHNITZEL
