Cannelloni di magro

CANNELLONI DI MAGRO

If you have read yesterday’s post, you will know that I am hosting this month’s challenge at the Daring Cooks!  I chose to challenge my fellow daring cooks to make Italian Cannelloni from scratch, including fresh pasta and sauces!  I also shared 4 different recipes with them and I am also going to share them…

Gnocchi alla sorrentina

GNOCCHI ALLA SORRENTINA

This week’s Regional Italian dish comes from Campania and more precisely from Sorrento.  I am sure that all of you have heard of this beautiful coastal village, which is renowned for its world famous lemons (from which the best limoncello is made).  I would love to share with you the recipe for limoncello, but as…

Mushroom and Asiago Calzoni

MUSHROOM AND ASIAGO CALZONI

The other day I had some Asiago cheese left in the fridge and while trying to figure out what to do with it, I stumbled upon this recipe.  I also happened to have all the other ingredients, so I thought of trying it out for dinner.  It was really tasty!  I loved the contrasting flavours…

Passionfruit and Coconut Creme Brulee

PASSION FRUIT & COCONUT CRÈME BRULÉE

Crème brulée is one my favourite desserts.  I love to break the thick and bittersweet caramel crust to find the silky sweet cream underneath.  I love contrasting flavours and textures in food as you find that they all melt together when you savour them giving you ONE distinctive taste.  It is a bit like all…

Seekh Kebab

SEEKH KEBAB

Today I want to share with you the recipe for one of my favourite Indian/Pakistani dishes: seekh kebab.  Whenever we eat out, we never fail to order some as an appetiser.  They are made of minced lamb with spices and are cooked on skewers, traditionally in a tandoor oven.  They are usually served with hari…

Lasagne

BAKED LASAGNE

Today I want to share with you the recipe for one of the most iconic Italian dishes ever: lasagne.  It is a dish for special occasions or Sunday lunches spent with family and friends… so it is more time consuming than a mid-week dish.  But I can guarantee you that you will not mind the…

PIZZAIOLA BEEF SCHNITZEL

Today I want to share with you a very easy recipe.  It is a dish that my mum would make often when I was a child as it was quick and loved by everyone.  It is called “pizzaiola” as it resembles pizza, thanks to the tomato and oregano sauce in which the beef is cooked. …

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…

Beef Bourguignon

BOEUF BOURGUIGNON

Our May 2012 Daring Cooks’ hostess was Fabi of fabsfood. Fabi challenged us to make Boeuf Bourguignon, a classic French stew originating from the Burgundy region of France. The last time I have eaten bœuf bourguignon I was in Paris… 10 years ago.  I remember it so well, it feels like yesterday.  My husband and…

Seared Kangaroo with Raspberry Glaze

SEARED KANGAROO FILLET STEAKS WITH RASPBERRY GLAZE

I am sure the majority of you are wondering what kangaroo tastes like.  Well, it is hard to describe its taste, but I would probably compare it to venison, though it is milder and not as gamey.  I still remember the first time I ate it… I was in Uluru and kangaroo was one of…

Aussie Burger with the lot

AUSSIE BURGER WITH “THE LOT”

Today I am going to share with you the recipe of what is known as “Aussie burger with the lot”.  The reason for the name is evident: this isn’t your everyday cheese burger… it is made up of A LOT of goodies!  And it is irresistible!  What’s not to love about a sandwich filled with…

Mini Meat Pies

MINI MEAT PIES

You cannot get more Aussie than this: meat pie is an iconic Australian dish and it had to be a part of my “Come have some Aussie tucker, mate!” 24×24 event.  You can get it almost anywhere and there are also shops that only sell these.  They can be made with different fillings (chicken and…

Eggplant & Tri-colour Goat Cheese Mille-feuille on Couscous

EGGPLANT & TRI-COLOUR GOAT CHEESE MILLE-FEUILLE ON COUSCOUS

Our April 2012 Daring Cooks hosts were David & Karen from Twenty-Fingered Cooking. They presented us with a very daring and unique challenge of forming our own recipes by using a set list of ingredients! Sounds easy, uh?  Well… sort of… at least until I read the lists!  Here they go: List 1: Parsnips, Eggplant…

Rotisserie potatoes

ROTISSERIE POTATOES

These potatoes make a great side dish, especially for chicken.  I love to make them when we eat chicken wings and they are always a hit together.  Who doesn’t love roasted potatoes?  And the mix of spices in this recipe is hearty, slightly smoked and full of flavour.  Another quick and easy recipe for a…

Curried Carrot and Coconut Soup

CURRIED CARROT AND COCONUT SOUP

Today I want to share with you the recipe for a delicious, easy yet elegant soup.  The other day I found myself with some left-over coconut cream.  My first thought was: I am going to make coconut ice cream with it.  Then I thought again… and even though I love coconut ice cream, I felt…

Sa Panada

SA PANADA

Today I want to share with you the recipe of a very ancient dish: Sa Panada.  And when I say “ancient” I mean it, as it appears that it was already known more than 2000 years ago!  The name panada literally means “ball” and it is a traditional pie from the region of Sardegna (Sardinia),…

PORK FILLET WITH A HONEY & MUSTARD GLAZE AND FRIED ARTICHOKES

This is one of those recipes that I have been making for such a long time that I do not even remember where I got it from!  It is very simple, yet delicious.  The pork is tender, juicy, sweet and tangy.  I love to serve it with fried artichokes, the way my mum makes them. …

Busiati with Herbs, Pistachio pesto and crunchy Zucchini

BUSIATI WITH HERBS, PISTACHIO PESTO AND CRUNCHY ZUCCHINI

I noticed that I haven’t shared many pasta recipes lately… and for an Italian food blogger that’s bad!  Oh so bad!  So, today I am going to make it up to you with a special post that is very good for you!  My dear friend Cì from Il Mondo di Cì informed me of a…

PASTA CON I FEGATINI – PASTA WITH CHICKEN LIVER

As I already said in my Chicken Liver Parcels – Fegatini al cartoccio post, I never enjoyed eating liver while growing up, with the exception of chicken liver.  There are 2 dishes made with chicken liver that I have always LOVED: one is the Parcels and the second one is the dish I am going…

GORGONZOLA SOUFFLÉ

Ok, I guess by now you all know how much I love gorgonzola… so I won’t bore you with that… suffice it to say that I often have some in my fridge.  The other day, I just wanted to cook something new with it.  There are certain dishes that I have always been scared to…

SCALOPPINE AL LIMONE – LEMON SCALOPPINE

My mom used to make this dish quite often and I have always liked it.  It is quick to make and it tastes delicious.  It is also somewhat refreshing thanks to the lemon sauce.  It is a classic of Italian cuisine and it is quite popular outside of Italy… so if you are interested in…

FALAFEL

The first time I ate falafel I was in Paris… as it often happened with Middle Eastern food that was almost unknown in Italy.  I am talking about 20+ years ago!  I still remember the shop I bought them from.  It was near Place des Vosges, in my favourite area of town: the Marais, which…
