Lemon Risotto

Lemon Risotto

If you follow MsM, you will know that risotto is one of my most favourite dishes and today’s Lemon Risotto is definitely a dish I love.

Lemon Round-Up

Lemon Round-Up 2020

Welcome to my Lemon Round-Up 2020! If you like lemons, this is definitely the place to be! In this post, I will share with you a compilation of MsM’s best Lemon based recipes.

Lemon Panna Cotta

Lemon Panna Cotta

Today I am back with a traditional Italian recipe: Lemon Panna Cotta. This is a deliciously silky, sweet, and slightly tart dessert that will definitely make your mouth water.

Low Fodmap Lemon Potato Salad

Low Fodmap Lemon Potato Salad

We have had our share of mayo-based potato salads during the holidays, so today I thought I’d share my Low Fodmap Lemon Potato Salad instead.

Low Fodmap Lemon Cake

Low Fodmap Lemon Cake

Today I am sharing with you the recipe for a delicious Low FODMAP Lemon Cake. FODMAP (fermentable oligosaccharides, disaccharides, monosaccharides, and polyol) is a term that describes a group of foods that contain indigestible nutrients that feed bacteria in the gut.

Chicken Tagine with Lemon, Dates, and Apricots

Chicken Tagine with Lemon, Dates, and Apricots

I adore Moroccan food and tagines (also spelled tajines), and this Chicken Tagine with Lemon, Dates, and Apricots has quickly become a family favourite.

One Pot Chicken and Lemon Rice

One Pot Chicken and Lemon Rice

Don’t you just love one-pot recipes? I know I do! They come together quickly and they require minimum cleaning after dinner, which is fantastic, especially after you have had a long tiring day. This One Pot Chicken and Lemon Rice is one such recipe, and it has yet another merit: it tastes amazing.

Lemon and Oil Cakes

Lemon and Oil Cakes

I absolutely love lemon-based desserts. I am not sure if it’s an age thing, but lately, they have become m, favourite and I like them even more than chocolate-based desserts! If you had told me this a few years ago, I would have never believed it could happen! These Lemon and Oil are delicious and…

Italian Lemon Meringue Shooters

Italian Lemon Meringue Shooters

If you follow my blog more or less regularly, you will know that I love desserts that can be served in shooter glasses. Creamy desserts that can be eaten with a spoon have always been my weakness, and I love to serve them in smaller portions, especially as part of a buffet, so I can…

Dolci Pellegrino

Dolci Pellegrino

Today I will share with you the recipe for Dolci Pellegrino, traditional lemon flavoured cookies from the city of Naples. Apparently these cookies, like many other Neapolitan and Sicilian sweets, were created by the nuns of a convent. These nuns were also helping out at the Pellegrini Hospital (thus the name) and would make these…

Blueberry Limoncello Yogurt Ciambellone

Blueberry Limoncello Yogurt Ciambellone

Don’t you think that Blueberry and Lemon is the perfect combination of flavours? I certainly do! And even more so when liquor is involved! This Limoncello Blueberry Yogurt Ciambellone is AMAZING in flavour and texture. The cake is fluffy and light with a good hint of lemon and the blueberry make it even more moist….

Lime Leaf Crème Brûlée

Lime Leaf Crème Brûlée

Today’s recipe was born as an experiment. It’s spring here in Sydney and my lime tree has got lots of new leaves. When I touched them, I got overwhelmed by their delicious aroma. In the south of Italy, lemon leaves are often used in cooking, so I thought of experimenting with the lime leaves instead….

Strawberry Lemon Cream Scones

Strawberry Lemon Cream Scones

I must confess I had never had “flavoured” scones before. Whenever I have eaten scones, it’s always been the traditional British kind, filled with jam and cream. I LOVE those! A little while ago, we were invited to celebrate the first birthday of the son of some close friends of ours. He is the CUTEST!…

Mediterranean Grilled Chicken Salad

Mediterranean Grilled Chicken Salad

I often have salad for lunch and I like to jazz it up with different ingredients and flavours so as not to get too bored. Today I would like to share with you the recipe for a very satisfying salad made with grilled chicken. This is no ordinary grilled chicken though, it is marinated in…

Passion fruit Possets

Passion fruit Possets

I discovered possets only recently, when I made a Lemon and Lavender version for my daughter’s 8th birthday party. I had never even heard of possets before, but when I read the recipe, I knew I would love them. It’s an English dessert that is perfect for tea time. Possets are quite similar to panna…

Lemon and Lavender Possets

Lemon and Lavender Possets

I made these Lemon and Lavender Possets for my daughter’s 8th birthday party. I must confess I had never heard of possets before, but when I read the recipe, I knew I HAD to make them. It’s an English dessert that I thought would work well for the High Tea theme of the party. Possets…

Lemon Delight in a Jar

Lemon Delight in a Jar

A few weeks ago, I have shared the recipe of Delizie al Limone (Lemon Delights), a typical Italian dessert from Naples and the Sorrentine peninsula, in the region of Campania.  They are a beautiful and delicious dessert, but they are very time consuming to make.  I had some of the Lemon glaze left in my…

Delizie al Limone

Delizie al Limone

Today’s recipe comes from Naples and the Sorrentine peninsula, in the region of Campania: Delizie al Limone (Lemon Delights).  They are sponge cakes filled with a lemon cream, brushed with Limoncello syrup and covered in a lemon and whipped cream glaze.  Yes, you got that right… they are absolutely decadent.  As I have recently shared…

Crema Catalana

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…

Home-made Mascarpone

HOME-MADE MASCARPONE

Today I want to share a little secret with you: mascarpone is probably the easiest cheese to make at home.  Really.  Anyone can make it and it only requires 2 ingredients: cream and lemon juice.  I usually buy mine at the grocery store, but I must confess I am not totally happy with the mascarpone…

Lemon Cheesecake Bars

LEMON CHEESECAKE 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…

SOLE MEUNIÈRE

Maybe not everyone knows this, but there is quite a bit of “rivalry” between Italy and France.  We call them “our transalpine cousins”, but the truth is there is a lot of competition going on… and not only about soccer!  Who has the best wine?  Or cheese?  Which cuisine is best?  French people will tell…
