Lamb and Artichoke Stew
Today’s recipe is a delicious Italian dish: Lamb and Artichoke Stew. My mum would often make it when artichokes were in season and it would often be on our Easter menu as well, as Italians usually eat lamb for the occasion. Growing up, I was not a big fan of lamb, but this dish used…
Roasted Pumpkin and Carrot Quinoa Salad
I only recently discovered quinoa and now I am hooked. I love all grains that can be used to make salads (I have plenty of couscous and maftoul recipes on the blog already!), so I already knew I would like quinoa. And I was not mistaken. I love its crunch and its slight bitterness, especially…
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
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…
Cicatelli Pasta with Arrabbiata Sauce
Enjoy a bowl of Cicatelli Pasta with Arrabbiata Sauce, with perfectly cooked cicatelli smothered in spicy tomato sauce and finished with Pecorino Romano.
Italian Sausage with Bell Peppers and Potatoes
I LOVE sausage. As a child, it used to be my favourite dish ever. We would almost only have it in summer though, as we would find the best sausage in Sicily. We would barbecue it and enjoy it in the most simple way. It was so good that you didn’t really have to add…
Italian Rice Salad
Combining tender rice with tuna, ham, cheese, olives and vegetables, Italian Rice Salad is a chilled Italian classic that’s fresh, colourful and satisfying.
Pasta with Baby Eggplants
Finally I am back with another pasta recipe! This Pasta with Baby Eggplants is a dish my grandmother used to make in Sicily. I have always loved it… it’s very easy to make and whenever I find baby eggplants at the grocer, I always buy them to make this pasta. What sets this sauce aside…
Roast Pork and Stuffing
Roast Pork and Stuffing brings colour and comfort to the Christmas table, with golden crackling and a fruity filling that tastes like celebration.
Sicilian Sweet and Sour Mackerel
My parents are here for the holidays and, like every year, I get to eat food from my childhood cooked by my mother. We used to eat a lot of fish when living in Italy and today I will share my mother’s recipe for one of my favourite dishes: Sicilian Sweet and Sour Mackerel –…
Sweet and Sour Chicken Stir Fry
Tender chicken stir-fried with colourful vegetables and pineapple makes Sweet and Sour Chicken Stir Fry a quick family dinner with classic sweet and sour sauce.
Saffron Pumpkin Porcini Risotto
I must admit that one of the things I miss the most about living in the Northern Hemisphere are the seasons. Don’t get me wrong, we have the same seasons down here, but they are “reversed”. In fact, right now, it’s the end of spring. Besides the fact that I will never be able to…
Mushroom and Mozzarella Skillet Chicken
I am a huge mushroom fan and, if you follow my blog, you also know that I cannot live without cheese. So it’s easy to understand that I find today’s recipe – Mushroom and Mozzarella Skillet Chicken – simply irresistible! Hearty mushrooms? Check. Gooey stretchy cheese? Check. Juicy and tender chicken bites? Check. What more…
Sicilian Eggplant Bake
Layers of roasted eggplant, sweet tomatoes, and gooey cheese make this Sicilian Eggplant Bake taste like home-cooked perfection.
Passato di Verdure
Today I am going to share with you a typical Italian recipe: Passato di Verdure, aka Italian vegetable veloute. It is a very common soup and we often have it during the cold autumn and winter months. The truth is, there is no real recipe for Passato di Verdure, as its ingredients can vary from…
Chestnut Porcini Risotto
I have been living in the Southern Hemisphere for over 10 years now, but I will never get used to the idea that September, October and November are spring months! Every year, when September comes, I feel like eating autumn food like apples, mushrooms, pumpkin, chestnuts and the likes. I doubt I will ever get…
Parmigiano Reggiano Tomato Chicken
Today’s recipe is another one of my family’s favourites: Parmigiano Reggiano Tomato Chicken. It is a very simple dish with the colours and all the flavours of Italy: tomatoes, Parmigiano Reggiano and fresh basil. Like all simple dishes, the quality of the ingredients you use to make it is really important. Try and use authentic…
Italian Tuna Loaf
My kids don’t like seafood much… but they do make an exception for tuna. So, with that in mind, I try and use tuna in different ways and recipes so that they don’t get bored of eating it. Today I will share with you my recipe for an Italian classic dish that we call Polpettone…

Snapper all’Acqua Pazza
I must admit, we don’t eat a lot of fish. I think it’s because my kids are not crazy about it, so I just find it easier to cook something that pleases everyone. On the other hand, I grew up in a family that LOVES fish and we would eat it at least 3 times…
Korokke
Korokke (コロッケ) were my youngest daughter’s favourite snack during our trip to Japan! Korokke are potato croquettes coated in panko and then deep fried. In Japan you can find many different kinds of korokke and I have already shared with you the recipe for Beef Korokke and Cheese Korokke. Today’s recipe is the basic version…
Castelmagno and Pear Risotto
Today I am back with a typical Italian recipe. As you know, I am very fond of Italian regional products. It is because of this incredible variety of resources and flavours that Italian cuisine is so special. Besides, I love cheese – even more than I love chocolate! So, when I visited Italy last year,…
