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…
RABBIT WITH BLACK OLIVE TAPENADE
I know that rabbit is probably an unusual meat in many households around the world, but it is quite common in Italy. It is very lean and it tastes a bit like chicken. I have always liked it, even as a child. Actually I used to like it a lot more than chicken. Since moving…

SALSA VERDE
Today’s Regional Italian dish is Salsa verde (“green sauce”), a very famous Italian condiment that is used to serve poached meats, poultry and, sometimes, fish. It is a lovely sauce, slightly tangy and very tasty. It is also quite healthy and full of vitamins thanks to its main ingredient: parsley. This is a traditional recipe from…
Chicken Tikka (Murgh Tikka)
Juicy chicken, a thick spiced marinade, and quick cooking give Chicken Tikka its rich taste and lightly charred finish. Serve it with naan, rice, or a simple chutney on the side.
Cavatelli al Ragù di Maiale
A hearty simmer brings out a rich, rounded taste in Cavatelli al Ragù di Maiale, turning simple ingredients into a warming pasta bowl.
FALSOMAGRO
When I think of Sunday lunches as a child, I think of this dish. I guess you could say this was our family’s equivalent of a Sunday roast. My mum would often prepare this when we had friends over and it has always been one of my all time favourite meat dishes. When I moved…
CHICKEN SALAD
I must admit that I had my very first chicken salad when I visited the USA in 1997. Yes… quite late in life (well, I am not THAT old, but the point is, it is not a dish I grew up eating!). I am not sure why, but it is not something my family would…

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…

FOODBUZZ 24X24: COME HAVE SOME AUSSIE TUCKER, MATE!
Even though I am Italian, I have been living in Australia for the past 6 years. I love this country so much that I have formally become Australian a couple of years ago and I consider myself Australian as much as Italian. Australia is a wonderful country where people from different cultural backgrounds live together. …
SALTIMBOCCA ALLA ROMANA
Today’s Regional Italian dish comes from Lazio, Rome’s region. In fact, this dish is Roman… so much so, that it is called Saltimbocca alla romana (which literally means “jumps in the mouth Roman style”). This is one of those dishes that you can easily find outside of Italy and that I have seen made in…

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. …
