Today I want to share with you a fantastic recipe for Tahini Honey Roasted Cashews. Italians love and are quite famous for their aperitivo. For who doesn’t know what aperitivo is… it is our way to start off dinner. We usually drink some wine (cocktails have been introduced too, lately) and eat something with it,…
Rum Glazed Roasted Pecans
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…
Torta Pasqualina Umbra
Today I’d like to share with you a traditional Easter recipe from the Italian region of Umbria. Umbria is famous around the world for its hilly landscapes and old towns, such as Assisi and Orvieto to name just two. It is a wonderful area of Italy and besides being beautiful, it also boasts delicious hearty…
Pain au Chocolat
Last year I shared with you the recipes for how to make the perfect French Croissants and Pain aux Raisins. Well… today I am back to show you how to make the missing item to have on a French breakfast table: Pain au Chocolat, my kids’ favourite! I made these when I made croissants and pain…
Seeded Cranberry Crunch Granola Bars
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…
Churros y Chocolate
I think everyone knows what churros are… but what you don’t know is how much I like them! Whenever I go to Spain, they are my breakfast with a nice cup of hot chocolate… no matter the time of the year, the season and the weather! That’s how much I like them. There are a…
Chocolate Chip Banana and Pumpkin Bread
I love new recipes that come to life using leftovers. Doesn’t it feel great to clean out the fridge (or pantry) AND enjoy something new? Today’s recipe came about just like that. I had some overripe bananas and some leftover pumpkin purée that absolutely needed to be finished, quickly! So, I mixed them up to…
Moroccan Beef Kefta Briouat #SundaySupper
This week the #Sunday Supper team is celebrating the Oscars! We will be showcasing all sorts of “Red carpet” food! Don’t you love the theme? When I saw the theme, I thought of making something special and a bit unusual, at least for me. I wanted something that you could eat with your hands, maybe…
Garlic Knots
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…
Za’atar Manouche (Lebanese Flatbread)
Soft, chewy Za’atar Manouche baked to golden perfection and brushed with olive oil for rich, herby flavour. Serve warm and enjoy straight from the oven.
Ful Medames
I made this dish for the Middle Eastern breakfast we were asked to prepare for this month’s Daring Cooks challenge. Ful Medames is an Egyptian dish made with cooked and mashed fava beans, tomatoes, tahini, lemon juice, fresh coriander leaves, spring onions and extra virgin olive oil. It is a staple meal in Egypt, but…
Cherry Tomato and Halloumi Bites
It’s the end of summer here. The kids are back in school (sigh) and we are enjoying the last days of warm weather. Wait, what? I think we will still have quite a few warm days around here, but let’s say that, “officially” summer is almost over. So, I am sharing one of those recipes…
Super Bowl Roundup
Today’s post is not about 1 recipe. As Super Bowl is approaching, I thought to make a list of the best party food MsM has to offer. Being Italian, I do not follow football… but I enjoy some good soccer. And a good spread during a game! In this post I am going to give…
Asian Chicken Sliders with Sriracha Mayo
This weekend is all about Super Bowl food, so if you are like me and LOVE the kind of food that is served for such sporting events, you are in for a big treat! As you know, I don’t follow football and not living in the USA, also means no Super Bowl… but Italians are…
Chicken Spring Rolls
A platter of Chicken Spring Rolls is always a crowd favourite. Crisp, savoury, and easy to dip, they make entertaining stress-free and delicious.
Cubbaita
Tomorrow is a very special day for all Italian children, as we celebrate the day of the Epiphany and the visitation of the Biblical Magi to the baby Jesus. The night between January 5th and 6th is the night of Befana, who, in Italian folklore, is “an old woman who fills children’s stockings with candy…
Salted Caramel Nutella Hot Chocolate
After sharing the recipe for my baked Cinnamon Apples, which make for a healthy snack, I am back today with something more… festive. It is the holiday season and I think it calls for a little indulgence, before we get back to our everyday cooking and eating. So what better time than this to enjoy…
Cinnamon Apple Chips
During the Christmas holidays, we all tend to eat a lot. And we also snack a lot more than during other times of the year. I find it easier to snack on healthy food and fresh fruits here in Australia, as it is summer, but for all my friends and family up in the Northern…
Lime and Macadamia Nut Bark
Can you believe that I had never made chocolate bark before?? I know, so weird, especially considering that I am a chocoholic! In my defence, I must say that it is not something we usually make in Italy. For Christmas, we mostly make nougat. But bark is so good, so versatile and, let’s face it,…
Kitty Cat Bread Buns
I made these savoury Kitty Cat Bread Buns for my daughter’s 5th birthday party and they were a hit. Not only did they taste yummy, they also looked quite cute, which is always an important factor, especially for a kid’s party. The brown dough is made with cocoa powder, but rest assured that the cocoa powder…
Kitty Cat Doughnuts
Soft, moist, and dipped in candy melts, these Kitty Cat Doughnuts are decorated with fondant and almonds. A fun bake that will have everyone purring with happiness.
Onion Crusted Scotch Fillet with home-made Chips
A few weeks ago, I reviewed the Toollio, a very handy kitchen tool that really makes your life easier when it comes to cooking. Today, I want to show you yet another recipe that I have created using this fantastic appliance: Onion Crusted Scotch Fillet with home-made Chips. It is another very quick meal idea, as…
Cheese Mouse on a Cracker
Today’s post is not really a recipe, but I thought this Cheese Mouse on a Cracker looked too cute not to have a post of its own! All you need to make these “mice” are cheese spread triangles, black sesame seeds, salami and… crackers off course! I made these for Georgia’s 5th birthday party. The theme…
Kitten Chocolate Cookies
I made these cookies for my daughter’s 5th birthday party. If you follow this blog, you will already know that the theme was “kitty cats”. These cookies are really quick to make. I used a chocolate cookie dough that is not too sweet and that is very easy to work with. I always make cookies…
Georgia’s 5th Birthday
On the 1st my youngest daughter turned 5!! I cannot believe she is 5 already and that in January she will be going to “big school”. Georgia is definitely ready for it… mum, not so much. She’s the baby of the house and seeing her grow up so fast is both amazing and scary. She…
Croquetas de Jamón Serrano
I must admit that even though I love Australia, I often miss Europe. I was born and brought up in Milan, which is practically in the middle of Europe. By car, you can get to Switzerland in 30 minutes, to the South of France and Austria in 3 hours and in 5 hours you are…
Cheese Bitterballen
The October Daring Cooks’ Challenge was brought to us by Andrea from 4pure. She introduced us to one of her family favorites which is soon to become one of yours, too. Welcome to the world of Dutch Bitterballen! Oh that sounded intriguing! I love discovering new dishes and this one sounded particularly yummy and… exotic. But…
