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). Pin It

Chinese Sweet and Sour Pork Meatballs

Chinese Sweet and Sour Pork Meatballs

Sweet and Sour anything is my go-to dish whenever I eat Chinese food. I have always liked sweet and sour sauces… even in Italian cooking. So, when I saw these meatballs, I couldn’t resist and I had to try them. And boy, was I glad I did! They were a super hit with my family…

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…

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…

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…

Lamb Kofta Curry

LAMB KOFTA CURRY

I love today’s recipe.   I know I say this quite often, but then… would I share something that I don’t like?? Mmmm nope!  However, this is one of my favourite curries.  I love meatballs as they remind me of home.  My mum would often make meatballs and I think all children like them.  Pin It

Albondigas en Salsa de Almendras

ALBÓNDIGAS EN SALSA DE ALMENDRAS

The June Daring Cooks’ challenge sure kept us rolling – meatballs, that is! Shelley from C Mom Cook and Ruth from The Crafts of Mommyhood challenged us to try meatballs from around the world and to create our own meatball meal celebrating a culture or cuisine of our own choice. Wow! What a great theme!…

Pork Meatballs with Peanut Sauce

PORK MEATBALLS WITH PEANUT SAUCE

Thai is one of my favourite Asian cuisines.  Believe it or not, there were no Thai restaurants in Milan, at least up until 6 years ago!  Some Chinese restaurants would serve some Thai dishes, but they obviously did not have a lot of variety.  That’s why, the moment I saw it, I bought this little…

Today’s recipe is a great addition to any potluck or buffet meals.  I love it also for picnics and barbecues and it works perfectly fine both in winter and summer… it is one of those versatile recipes that is good to have handy any time of the year.  Agrodolce means “sour and sweet” in Italian…

SPIEDINI – SPITINA

My dad often tells me about his grandmother making Spiedini and Crostini when he was a child.  She would spend the whole afternoon making these in the kitchen, having to feed them to her many grandchildren.  My dad would sit next to her and watch.  And that’s how he learnt how to make them.  As…

STEWED TURKEY MEATBALLS – POLPETTE DI TACCHINO IN UMIDO

This is one of my grandma’s dishes that got passed to me by my parents.  I have to say, I love “polpette”… and this particular dish brings back many sweet childhood memories, so it is particularly dear to me.  I hope you enjoy it just as much as I do.
