EatNow Best Eats Awards 2014
A little while ago, I wrote a post about a home ordering website called EatNow. Today I am back with some exciting news, as they are running what I would define as the “dream competition” for any foodie. How would you like to visit and enjoy the amazing food of Italy or Morocco or Mexico? …
Momos in Ginger Broth

Salted Caramel Chocolate Cookies
My girls are home for their spring holidays… a much needed break for everyone before the beginning of the last term of this school year. I cannot believe that my eldest daughter will soon be in year 2 and that my baby will start kindergarten in just a few short months! During the holidays we…
Burrata and Truffle Oil Risotto
Maybe not everyone is familiar with Burrata. It is a kind of fresh cheese typical of the Italian region of Apulia, in the south of the country. It is in fact a “composite” cheese as it is made of a mozzarella outer shell filled with soft mozzarella scraps and cream and then closed to form…
Roasted Bell Peppers
Bell pepper, or capsicum as they are known here in Australia, are among my favourite vegetables. I have always liked them, ever since I was little. In summer, they would make a regular appearance on our table and I was always delighted. My mother would make them in many different ways and even though my…
Sarde Allinguate
I know I have said this before, but sardines are my favourite fish ever. They are cheap and so good for you and I highly recommend you try them. I just wish I could find them more often here in Sydney! Today I will share with you a traditonal Sicilian recipe, very common in the…
Apple and Dulce de Leche Tart
Golden pastry, soft apples, and creamy Dulce de Leche melt together in an Apple and Dulce de Leche Tart that feels like the sweetest part of autumn.
Roasted Strawberry Barbecue 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…
Passion Fruit Béarnaise Sauce
Silky Passion Fruit Béarnaise Sauce with a bright tropical twist brings together smooth, buttery richness and a light tang, with fresh tarragon folded into every spoon.
Royal Tahiti
I am so excited about today’s post: Royal Tahiti! A little over 1 year ago, my family and I were enjoying the sun and turquoise sea of French Polynesia. The best sea in the world if you ask me!
Casoncelli alla Bergamasca (Bergamo-Style Stuffed Pasta)
Handmade Casoncelli alla Bergamasca brings Bergamo’s traditional flavours home with sausage, mortadella, and cheese wrapped in soft pasta and tossed in butter, sage, and crisp Speck. Italian food isn’t one single cuisine. Every region, and often every town, has its own recipes and traditions. The stuffed pasta from Bologna is different from the one made…
Coconut Ice Cream
My eldest daughter loves coconut flavoured treats. She asks me to make coconut cakes, muffins, cupcakes, cookies… You name it. And off course, coconut ice cream is one of her favourite flavours! I am happy to oblige as I too like coconut. It always makes me feel like I am on a tropical island, enjoying…
Fried Manchego with Tomato and Orange Blossom Jam
In my early 20’s I visited Spain a few times. Oh Spain, an amazing country, one of my favourite places in the world. I have been to the North (in the Basque country), the center (Madrid is such a beautiful city), the east (I left a piece of my heart in Barcelona and Catalunya) and…
Minestrone
Having grown up in Milan, where winters are quite cold, I have had my fair share of soups. In fact, my mum would often make soup for dinner. My favourite has always been Pasta e Fagioli, but she has always made a fantastic Minestrone. Contrary to what it may seem, Minestrone is actually a pretty…
Vanilla and Yogurt Cheesecake with Raspberry Sauce
Don’t you just love a good cheesecake? I certainly do! I particularly like today’s recipe as it is a 2 layered cheesecake. The bottom layer is a normal baked vanilla cheesecake, while the top layer also contains Greek Yogurt… this makes the cake a tad lighter to the palate and a bit fluffier on the…
Beet and Goat’s Cheese Salad with Mint Balsamic Vinaigrette
I love cheese. All kinds. Goat’s cheese in at the top of my list, together with Gorgonzola, Parmigiano Reggiano and Taleggio. I like it so much that I even learnt how to make it by myself, at home (click here to find out how to make your own Chėvre)! I love how flavourful and tangy it…
Spaghetti alla Puttanesca
Briny olives and capers give Spaghetti alla Puttanesca its unmistakable flavour, ideal for a relaxed date night and done in 20 minutes.
Piadina Romagnola with Mortadella and Stracchino and a Barilla Cooking Class
Over the weekend, I was invited by Barilla Australia to one of their Hands-on Cooking Classes at Casa Barilla, here in Sydney. The class was about food from Emilia Romagna, home of many iconic Italian products like Parmigiano Reggiano, Prosciutto di Parma, Balsamic Vinegar and Mortadella, to cite just a few. It is a true…
Poire Belle Helene
Pears and chocolate make a dream-worthy duo in this Poire belle Hélène. Warm poached pears sink into smooth chocolate sauce, creating a spoon-ready dessert that feels sweet and hard to resist.
Mushroom Sofficini
If you follow this blog, you will be already familiar with sofficini, as I have published a Ham and Cheese Sofficini recipe a while ago. For all the others who still do not know them, sofficini are delicious pockets of crunchy (yet soft) dough filled with all sorts of scrumptious cheesey goodies. These are usually sold…
Guinness Braised Lamb Shanks
Guinness Braised Lamb Shanks cook slowly in a rich stout gravy until the meat turns fall-off-the-bone tender, perfect served with creamy mashed potatoes.
Strawberry Frozen Yogurt
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…
Blue Daiquiri (Glacier Fusion Cocktail)
Served in a sugar-rimmed Martini glass, this Blue Daiquiri combines refreshing rum, bright lemon, and sweet apple flavours for a crisp turquoise cocktail with a zesty finish.
Gnocchi alla Romana
Soft, creamy, and baked until lightly golden, Gnocchi alla Romana is classic Italian comfort food, with a cheesy finish and a texture meant to be enjoyed slowly.
Smorrebrod
Crisp, hearty Smorrebrod layered with rye bread, butter, and fresh toppings brings Scandinavian flavour to the table, perfect for relaxed lunches or light dinners shared with family and friends.
Elsa’s Plait
I love savoury dishes much more than sweets, so I always make sure to have a few savoury options at parties as I know kids will need something more than sugary treats. I made this bread plait for Victoria’s Frozen party, to simulate Elsa’s long plait. It’s a soft bread filled with ham and mozzarella. …
