Blueberry Risotto

BLUEBERRY RISOTTO

I know that this may sound like quite an unusual dish, but after making a delicious Strawberry risotto last year, I have been on the look out for some other fruit based risotto recipes.  So, when I saw this beautiful Blueberry risotto, I knew I had to try it.  I love the colour, so intense…

Paella Mixta

PAELLA MIXTA

Our Daring Cooks’ September 2012 hostess was Inma of la Galletika. Inma brought us a taste of Spain and challenged us to make our very own delicious Paella! Paella!!!!!!!!!!  When I saw this month’s challenge I couldn’t have been happier.  When I lived in Europe, Spain was my favourite place to travel to.  I have been there…

Pear and Gorgonzola Risotto

PEAR AND GORGONZOLA RISOTTO

If you follow this blog more or less regularly, you already know I have a huge love for blue cheese.  And to me, gorgonzola is the king of blue cheeses… I guess I am also biased as I was born not too far from a place called Gorgonzola, from where the cheese supposedly originates.  I…

Asparagus Risotto with Raspadüra

ASPARAGUS RISOTTO WITH RASPADÜRA

Today I want to share with you the recipe for a risotto I made a little while ago.  I think it it the perfect spring dish.  I know that many of my readers are in the northern hemisphere (and I still have trouble adjusting to the fact that May is autumn down here!), so I…

FOODBUZZ 24X24: SICILIAN STREET FOOD NEW YEAR’S EVE PARTY

The majority of you know that, even though I now live in Australia, I was born in Milan – Italy, by Sicilian parents and even though I was brought up in one of the most glamorous and fashionable cities of the world, I have always been attracted to the simple yet amazingly delicious food that…

Supplì al telefono

SUPPLÌ AL TELEFONO

Today’s recipe takes us to the Italian region of Lazio.  Lazio is a coastal region in Central Italy and it includes Rome, the capital of Italy.  Many of the most popular Italian dishes come from this area.  They include carbonara, amatriciana, abbacchio, carciofi alla giudia and many more.  So stay tuned for more recipes from…

STRAWBERRY RISOTTO

As Divya from Flavour Fiesta reminded us with her beautiful guest post about Rosewater, Cardamom and Pistachio Cake, October has been Breast Cancer Awareness month.  So, I thought there couldn’t be a better way to conclude this month than by posting my Strawberry Risotto: pink risotto for the cause!  Strawberry risotto is a savoury dish. …

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…

RISOTTO CON SCAMORZA AFFUMICATA – MY GUEST POST AT AN ITALIAN COOKING IN THE MIDWEST

Today I am a guest at my friend Pola’s beautiful site: An Italian Cooking in the Midwest.  I was so thrilled when she asked me to write a post for her!  Why?!  Well, because I love her site.  We have many things in common: we are both Italians living abroad and trying (hard) to maintain…

Kashmiri Pulao

KASHMIRI PULAO

When we first moved to Sydney we did not know any good places to dine out in the city, so we asked around and received a few great suggestions.  One of these quickly became one of our favourite restaurants: Abhi’s Indian Restaurant.  The food is fantastic and some of their dishes are just plain delicious. …

SPINACH RISOTTO – RISOTTO AGLI SPINACI

I love all risotti.  This one used to be one of my favourite as a child.  I liked its colour so much!  Yet, I hated spinach… this was the only spinach dish I would eat.  So it is a great way to make fussy kids eat their veggies.  It works well with my 3 year…

SAFFRON RISOTTO – RISOTTO ALLA MILANESE

As I said in my post A special birthday with… an award, Risotto alla milanese is the first dish I have ever cooked all by myself.  I remember watching my mother continuously stirring the rice in the pot as a small child and waiting impatiently for it to be ready.  It surely was my favourite…

Meat Arancine

ARANCINE – AL RAGU E AL BURRO

This is my family recipe for arancine, a very popular street food dish from Sicily.  They are fried balls of saffron rice stuffed with either a meat sauce or a cheese sauce.  The cheese version is called “al burro” that literally means “with butter”, but they are actually filled with béchamel sauce, cheese, ham and peas, while the…
