My girls love bread. They would eat bread all day long if I let them! So, in an attempt to give them something healthier, I am baking more bread than I used to. And I have taken up baking whole meal or multi grain breads more than white bread. This is a very easy recipe…
Vitello Tonnato (Veal with Tuna Sauce)
Chilled veal layered with creamy tuna, caper, and anchovy sauce gives Vitello Tonnato its rich flavour and delicate texture, perfect for Italian appetisers and gatherings.
MOO SHU WITH CHINESE STEAMED PANCAKES AND HOME-MADE HOISIN SAUCE
The October Daring Cooks’ Challenge was hosted by Shelley of C Mom Cook and her sister Ruth of The Crafts of Mommyhood. They challenged us to bring a taste of the East into our home kitchens by making our own Moo Shu, including thin pancakes, stir fry and sauce. When I saw this I was a bit…
ROSEWATER, CARDAMOM AND PISTACHIO CAKE – GUEST POST FROM DIVYA OF FLAVOUR FIESTA
As you probably know, I am enjoying some well-deserved R&R with my family and have organized a few guest posts for Manu’s Menu to leave you all in great company while I am gone. This is the last guest post for now as I will be back very soon, but I am already thinking of…
CHEESY GRITS WITH CHICKEN AND SPICY PAN ROASTED MUSHROOMS – GUEST POST FROM SANDRA OF SANDRA’S EASY COOKING
As you know, I am currently on vacation for a few days and I have decided to ask a few of my favourite foodie friends to write some guest posts for Manu’s Menu while I am away. I am so excited to introduce the second guest of this series! She is one of the most…
CORSICAN STUFFED COURGETTES – GUEST POST FROM JILL OF MAD ABOUT MACARONS
If you follow me regularly, you may know that I am off for a short holiday with my family for some well deserved R&R. While I am gone, I thought I would leave you in good company. I have wanted to host some guests on Manu’s Menu for a while and this sounded like the…
Frittatine alla Parmigiana (Traditional Italian Layered Frittatine)

Matcha Ice Cream (Green Tea Ice Cream)
With earthy matcha, sweet cream, and a smooth frozen finish, Matcha Ice Cream scoops like a dream and melts slowly into a delicate green tea sweetness.
BEEF RENDANG
When I saw this recipe at Not Quite Nigella’s website I knew I HAD to make it. It looked too good not to try it! So I made it and then I made it again, and again and… you got it… again! It is now officially a recurrent dish in my house and one of…
PINEAPPLE SORBET
I bought a beautiful pineapple to make Salmon with pomegranate molasses glaze and had more than half left. It had a fantastic aroma, but was a little on the sour side, so I thought of making something I had never made before: sorbet. I have made ice cream many times, but had never tried to…
CHICKEN SHAWARMA – COOK AROUND THE GLOBE
I often associate memories with food (or food with memories?) and eating kebab always reminds me of Paris. Strange, eh? Well, not so much. As I have already mentioned in my post on Fried Rice, foreign food restaurants and eateries were not so common while I was growing up in Italy. And that too in…
TARATOR SAUCE
Do you know that sauce that looks like hummus whenever you order a kebab at your favourite kiosk? Well, that’s tahini sauce… or tarator sauce. I love its intense and tangy flavour and I always order it with my kebab! I also found out it is pretty easy to make at home and it has…
WHOLE MEAL PITA
I love home made bread. I think there is nothing better than the smell of freshly baked bread in the house, at any time of the day. Maybe not many of you know, but some of the best bakers in Milan are actually of Arab origin. And they make fantastic bread. One of my favourite…
TAHITIAN LIME MOUSSE SHOOTERS – THE SECRET RECIPE CLUB
This is the second month I am participating in the “Secret recipe club” and I LOVE it! It is a great concept… each month you are assigned a participating food blogger to make a recipe from and in turn someone else will be assigned your blog. All you have to do is choose a recipe,…
PORK ROAST WITH APPLES AND PRUNES
This is another one of the dishes I have learnt from my mom. She used to make it often on Sundays and it is a fantastic and juicy roast. I guess apples and pork are a classic combination, but it is one that I never get tired of. The sweetness of the apples goes very…
SWEET AND SPICY CHICKEN WINGS
Chicken wings are a delicacy that I have started to appreciate only recently. Growing up I would always eat chicken breast… no thighs, no wings. I know, thighs are supposed to be tastier and juicier, but I never really liked them. Since moving here I have eaten chicken wings made in different ways and found…
RED ONION TARTE TATIN
This recipe was one of the first recipes that I had decided to try out when I bought the recipe book in which it was published. And then, for one reason or another, I never got around to making it. The other day I was looking for another recipe and I saw this one. I…
LEMON MERINGUE PIE – MERINGATA AL LIMONE
This is a more fruity version of the classic meringue pie, which I will surely make later on. Being that it is summer for most people in the world, I thought of sharing my recipe for a lemon meringue pie, which is definitely more refreshing in taste. This pie also brings back very happy memories…
SALMON WITH POMEGRANATE MOLASSES GLAZE
Salmon is a kind of fish I have always loved. When I was little, it wasn’t a very common fish in Italy… it would actually be a rare find at the local markets and would be quite expensive, but now it has become quite common and very popular. It is also the only fish that…
Chicken Consommé with Saffron and Tortellini
Light yet flavourful, Chicken Consommé with Saffron and Tortellini brings together soft pasta and a fragrant broth in one calming, comforting bowl.
PIADINE WITH SWEET FILLINGS
Some time ago I shared with you my friend Marco’s recipe for piadine. They are a fantastic bread-like street food from Romagna in Italy, filled with all sorts of yummy goodies. I shared with you the recipe of a savory piadina filled with stracchino, prosciutto slices and rocket salad and I can tell you that…
Curry Puffs
Crispy golden Curry Puffs with flaky pastry and warmly spiced potato filling make such a satisfying homemade snack, especially served warm with sweet chilli sauce.
QUICK AND EASY BLUEBERRY TRIFLE
This is a very easy dessert recipe that can be prepared in a matter of minutes. The thing is it looks very nice and elaborate, so it will impress anyone you serve it to. Doesn’t that sound like the perfect dessert? After having prepared an entree, a main and a side dish and having spent…
Orange Chicken
Crispy chicken coated in a tangy citrus sauce makes Orange Chicken a satisfying meal, especially when served with steamed rice or your favourite fried rice.
FRIED RICE – RISO ALLA CANTONESE
I must admit I have discovered Chinese cuisine only recently. Growing up in Italy when I did, you would not come across too many “foreign” food restaurants. And… I am not old: I am “only” 33! Ethnic restaurants (as we call them in Italy) are becoming more and more popular nowadays, so I would say…
ABHI’S INDIAN RESTAURANT – REVIEW
As I have mentioned in my Baked Anelletti post, last Sunday was Father’s Day in Australia. So, after having anelletti on Saturday, my husband chose to go out for lunch on Sunday and he chose our family’s favourite restaurant to celebrate his special day: Abhi’s Indian Restaurant in North Strathfield. We were first introduced to this…
GELATO DI CASTAGNE – CHESTNUT ICE CREAM
This is one of those recipes that I sometimes create on the spur of the moment because I do not want to waste something that I have left over from another recipe. Don’t these kinds of recipes often turn out terrific? I had some sweet chestnut infused milk left over from making Mont Blanc and…
