Low Fodmap Japanese Beef Curry

Low Fodmap Japanese Beef Curry

After showing you how to make your own Low Fodmap Japanese Curry Roux, today I will show you how to use it in this super delicious Low Fodmap Japanese Beef Curry.

Low Fodmap Beef Stew

Low Fodmap Beef Stew

I absolutely adore stew, especially on a cold winter evening. This Low Fodmap Beef Stew is the quintessential comfort food to me.

Rissoles

Rissoles

Today’s recipe is all about Australia, as I am sharing with you how to make Rissoles. Rissoles are basically Australian beef and vegetable patties that are pan-fried and served with Ketchup (or “tomato sauce” as we say here).

Meatball Marsala

Meatball Marsala

A few weeks ago, I shared with you the recipe for Veal Marsala. Today instead I am back with a modern twist to the classic recipe. In fact, I will show you how to make Meatball Marsala. The sauce is not exactly the same as the one used for Veal Marsala, so make sure you…

Goulash

Goulash

Who doesn’t like a good stew in winter? I sure do! And Goulash is one of my favourite stews. It’s tasty, hearty, packed with flavour and easy to make. When I think of Goulash, 2 things come to my mind: Hungary and my grandmother. No, she wasn’t Hungarian, but she loved Goulash and it was…

Beef Carpaccio alla Cipriani

Beef Carpaccio alla Cipriani

Carpaccio is a dish of thinly sliced raw meat or fish served with a salad and a vinaigrette or a sauce. The beef version is one of my favourite appetisers. Carpaccio was invented in the 1950s by Giuseppe Cipriani from Harry’s Bar in Venice and it soon became very popular throughout Italy. He named it…

Pasta with Meatballs

Pasta with Meatballs

Today’s post is really important for me. As you know, I am all for real Italian food. That’s the very reason why I started this blog. I have always stated that Spaghetti with Meatballs is not a classic Italian dish. And I completely stand by it. That said, my mother used to make meatballs in…

Bosnian Burek

Bosnian Burek

I grew up in Europe during the 90’s and the war in the former Yugoslavia was very close for us living in Italy. I had visited Croatia as a child, and looking at the terrible images coming from across the border would make me shiver. A few months ago, a friend of mine visited Bosnia…

Cajun Burgers

Cajun Burgers

With both the Super Bowl and Mardi Gras around the corner, how about putting some cajun spice into your life? As you know, I love to come up with different combinations of flavours for burgers and this recipe is an absolute keeper. Remember I shared my home-made recipe for Cajun Seasoning in my last post?…

Parma Burger

Parma Burger

My kids love burgers, so in an attempt to keep their meals as healthy as possible, I usually make them at home. I always make my own beef patties as I like to play around with flavours and these Parma Burgers were an instant hit. These burgers have an Italian twist. The patties are made…

Beef Korokke

Beef Korokke

During our recent Japanese holiday, we had a lot of amazing food. In fact, Japanese cuisine is so much more than just (fantastic) sushi and sashimi! My youngest daughter especially liked korokke (コロッケ), aka potato croquettes coated in panko and then deep fried. Need I say more? Maybe I should also specify that there are…

Onion Crusted Scotch Fillet with Home-made Chips

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…

Meatballs in Tomato and Pecorino Romano Sauce

Meatballs in Tomato and Pecorino Romano Sauce

A few days ago, I reviewed an amazing kitchen appliance: the Toollio, a unique multi-function food processor that grinds and tenderises meat, grates cheese and bread, slices and chops vegetables and mozzarella, makes tomato purée… A true gem. As I promised, I am going to publish a few recipes that can give you a better idea…

Capsicum and Mushroom Beef Stew

CAPSICUM AND MUSHROOM BEEF STEW

Today I want to share with you a recipe that I used to cook while growing up in Milan.  Yes, you read that right. I used to cook this for the family.  It is quite an easy recipe all things considered.  I used to cook it on the stove, but I have recently changed over…

Beef Agglassato

BEEF AGGLASSATO

Today’s Regional Italian dish is yet another dish from Sicily!  It is a very easy and delicious beef pot roast (kind of) made with onions and white wine.  It is a recipe from Palermo that comes from my father’s side of the family.  I have already shared with you the recipe for Chicken Agglassato, and this…

CARPACCIO WITH GRANA PADANO AND ROCKET

Summer in Italy can be very hot, though since living in Sydney the term “hot” got a much “warmer” meaning… 😉  Anyhow, Italians tend to eat light in summer.  We do not like to use the oven or the stove too much when the outside temperature is so hot, especially when you think that the…

BEEF SCHIACCIATINA

This is one of my “go to” recipes for a quick, yet delicious mid week meal.  Schiacciatina means “something small that has been pressed”, and it is basically a very flat burger made with only ground beef, Parmigiano Reggiano, salt and pepper.  My mum used to make this often for me as a child.  I…

Baked Empanadas

BAKED EMPANADAS

Today’s recipe is not Italian as you may have guessed.  Empanadas are a South American delicacy and are very popular in many countries.  I have actually learnt that there are many different kinds of empanadas, many different fillings and doughs and different ways of cooking them too!  I guess it is one of those dishes…
