Soft sponge, lemon cream, and a touch of Limoncello make Delizia al Limone the perfect dessert for anyone who loves the bright flavour of fresh lemons.
Ravioli di Magro #SundaySupper
This week’s #SundaySupper theme is “Retro Food”. Ah, how fun is that? The thing is, being Italian, I have no idea what people in other countries used to cook and eat in the past… so, I had to resort to an Italian recipe. And I went for a classic. I must admit that this dish is…
Thandai
Today, Indians celebrate Holi, the festival of spring, also known as the festival of colours. Holi signifies the victory of good over evil and the arrival of spring, but for many people it’s also an opportunity to repair ruptured relationships. During this time, people play, chase and colour each other with dry powder and coloured…
Pomegranate Panna Cotta
Oh yes, another panna cotta recipe. I know, I know… I already have quite a few on the blog, but it is a dessert that I really love and I often make it. Besides, it is so easy and quick to put together that it often comes in handy. Panna cotta is a little like…
Dulce de Leche Liqueur
Creamy, sweet, and soothing, this Dulce de Leche Liqueur feels like dessert in a bottle and brings a little indulgence to even the simplest moments.
Migliaccio
Today is Mardis Gras… and in Italy it is the last day of Carnevale. Carnevale is one of the festivities I miss the most. As a child, I loved going around the streets in my town all dressed up, playing pranks and throwning coloured confetti at my friends. The best time of all was the…
Beetroot Pasta Hearts with Goat Cheese
As you know, I love to play around with pasta’s colours and shapes. With Valentine’s Day coming up in a couple of days, I thought heart shaped pasta would be in order. And to make it even more appropriate for the occasion, I thought of making it pink. You simply add some beetroot to your…
Valentine’s Day Recipe Roundup 2015
As Valentine’s Day is just around the corner, I thought of putting together a roundup of a few of my favourite recipes that I think would work great for a romantic dinner. Ready to drool?? Here goes MsM’s Valentine’s Day Recipe Roundup for 2015! Ah! And don’t miss my next recipe as that too is…
Salted Caramel Lava Cakes
With Valentine’s Day coming up, what could be better than a chocolate recipe? Well, a Salted Caramel AND Chocolate recipe, right? And these lava cakes are perfect for such a special occasion. So much so that this recipe is for 2. I love all lava cakes (remember this Molten White Chocolate Pudding?) and I admit…
Angelica Cake with Nutella
Sara from Ms. Adventures in Italy and Michelle from Bleeding Espresso have declared February 5th “World Nutella Day 2015″ – “a day to celebrate, to get creative with, and most importantly, to EAT Nutella”. Raise your hand if you like Nutella!!! It’s got quite a few fans in my house! So, World Nutella Day is always awelcome around…
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…
Vanilla Cupcakes with Jasmine Buttercream
I must admit that this is one of those recipes that came about by chance. Actually, it was created out of… leftovers. I once made my Lavender and Jasmine Macarons and did not use all the Jasmine buttercream. I had no intention of throwing it out and, even though the temptation was quite strong, I resisted…
Passion Fruit Liqueur
Bright, tangy, and tropical, this homemade Passion Fruit Liqueur brings a splash of sunshine to every glass. Its golden colour and balanced flavour make it ideal for sipping, gifting, or cocktails.
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.
4 Year Blogiversary!
Today Manu’s Menu turns 4! I barely can believe it’s already been 4 years since I started blogging. At times it feels like yesterday, but when I look at my first posts, I do notice that I have come a long way. I have learnt a lot of “technical stuff” and I have definitely improved…
Crema Catalana
Milk puddings and custards are slowly replacing chocolate as my favourite kind of dessert. While I used to always order anything with the word chocolate written on the menu when eating out, I have recently discovered that I prefer different flavoured creamy desserts. One that I have always loved (even during my chocoholic years) is…
Pineapple Mojito
I made this Pineapple Mojito to serve to my friends on New Year’s Eve as an aperitivo, just to start things off before we sat down for dinner. We had a Spanish theme that night and I know Mojito is not a Spanish cocktail, but I made a little exception as it is one of…
Chorizo en Salsa
If you follow me on Facebook, you will know that this year we hosted a little New Year’s Eve party at our place. We had a Spanish theme. And this Chorizo in Salsa was one of the dishes I served!
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…
Chocolate Cake with Zabaione
Hello and Happy New Year everyone! This is my first post for 2015 and to celebrate the beginning of a new year, it just had to be a dessert… and a chocolate one at that. This is a very easy and moist chocolate cake, made with very little flour. It is not too sweet, and…
Sweet Dreams Cocktail
Start the New Year with something sweet. Bailey’s, Kahlua, and Malibu blend perfectly in this creamy Sweet Dreams Cocktail that’s made for toasting with friends. Are you ready for New Year’s Eve? I’m still adjusting the menu, I always do! Right up until a few hours before the guests arrive, I usually end up changing…
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…
Pandoro
Christmas in Italy means Panettone or Pandoro. There’s a huge rivalry between the supporters of these two traditional sweets and very often people who like one will tell you they dislike the other.
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.
