Fiordilatte Gelato

Fiordilatte Gelato #SundaySupper

Welcome to this week’s #SundaySupper event! This Sunday the #SundaySupper team has organised an Italian Fest! Being Italian, when the Italian theme was announced, I knew I had to host it. This is the first #SundaySupper event I host and I am really excited, especially since it will be showcasing some amazing Italian food! I am very excited about today’s recipe…

Aloo Tikki Chaat

Aloo Tikki Chaat

I am really happy to share today’s recipe on the blog as it is one of my all time favourite Indian dishes: Aloo Tikki Chaat. But what is it exactly? Chaat is a term that describes savory snacks, typically served on the road from stalls or food carts… street food basically. And you know how…

Aloo Tikki

Aloo Tikki

Today’s recipe is a delicious Indian appetiser. Well, it’s more like a snack really, but it is also served as an appetiser at restaurants. I personally love Aloo Tikki and I often make them at home. You could say that they are the Indian version of potato croquettes and they are packed with flavour thanks…

Marzipan Lambs

Marzipan Lambs

Today’s recipe is a classic Sicilian sweet that is made and eaten to celebrate Easter. In Italian these delicious treats are called Pecorelle di Pasqua or Agnelli Pasquali which literally mean Easter Lambs. As they are made out of marzipan, I thought that Marzipan Lambs would be a better translation… at the end of the…

Blue Cheese, Pear and Walnut Triangles

Blue Cheese, Pear and Walnut Triangles

If you know me, you will know how much I love blue cheese. It is my absolute favourite cheese. I like all kinds but the ones I prefer are Gorgonzola and Roquefort, so I often have some in my fridge. As I had some filo pastry remaining from making Burek, I thought of using it…

Honeycomb

Honeycomb

Tomorrow we celebrate Australia Day, the official National Day of Australia. The 26th of January, in fact, marks the anniversary of the 1788 arrival of the First Fleet of British Ships at Port Jackson, New South Wales. Nowadays, the celebrations reflect our diverse society and are marked by community and family events. It is a…

Onion Schiacciata

Onion Schiacciata

Today’s recipe is from the regions of Tuscany and Umbria, in central Italy. Schiacciata is very similar to focaccia, but it is much easier to make than the traditional Focaccia from Genoa.  The term schiacciata literally means “pressed” and it refers to the fact that you need to press the dough down with your fingers…

Peanut Butter Honey Fudge

Peanut Butter Honey Fudge

There is no Christmas without fudge. I have already shared with you a few of my favourite fudge recipes: Chocolate Fudge, Salted Nutella Chocolate Fudge, Brigadeiros, Cookies and Cream Fudge and Matcha Nama Chocolates. So, today I thought of adding a new flavour to the list: Peanut Butter Honey Fudge. It is very smooth and perfect…

Chai Shortbread Cookies

Chai Shortbread Cookies

Shortbread cookies have always been my favourites. I love the fact that they are buttery and not overly sweet and I also like experimenting with different shapes and flavours. This time I gave my shortbread an Indian twist. We love Chai at our place and we always have some during the colder months of the…

Banana Milk

Banana Milk

Today’s post is a special one. The recipe itself is so easy that I am not even sure it could be passed on as a “recipe” per se, but it is my eldest daughter favourite treat and she insisted I “put it on the blog”… so here it is.  When I was a child, my…

Apple Roses

Apple Roses

I love apple desserts, don’t you? When I was a child, my favourite cake was this Apple Tart and it is still one of my favourites. Today’s recipe is quite common in Italy and there are a few variations to it.  Some people cook the apples, others use them raw, some people sprinkle cinnamon on…

Onion Pakoras

Onion Pakoras

Vimala was our host for the November Daring Cooks challenge and she invited us to try our hands at some Indian snacks and treats. What amazing timing… as Indians have just celebrated Diwali – the festival of lights. I am very happy to share with all of you the recipe for one of my favourite Indian…

Chicken 65

Chicken 65

I love Indian food and I try to cook it as much as possible at home. I also love to eat out though and we recently tried out a new place, not too far from home. They had a dish on their menu that caught my attention: Chicken 65. The name was too intriguing, so…

Grissini Torinesi

Grissini Torinesi

Grissini, aka breadsticks, are a weakness of mine. They originate from the Italian city of Turin, in Piedmont and they have been around for centuries! I love how crunchy they are and I often serve them wrapped in prosciutto as an appetiser or aperitivo. I even like to dip them in Nutella, when I am…

Nutella Palmiers

Nutella Palmiers

I made these Nutella Palmiers for my daughter’s 8th birthday party. As you know, I always have puff pastry for birthday parties and being Italian, Nutella cannot be skipped either! So, I decided to combine the 2 traditions and I made these deliciously crunchy treats. I added some toasted hazelnuts to them, to enhance both…

Pesto Pinwheels

Pesto Pinwheels

For parties, I always serve something made with puff pastry. It is somewhat due to my Italian heritage… I can’t remember a birthday party without puff pastry treats. We have them with anchovies, sausages, or all kinds of vegetables and even pizza ones. You name it. I love to make both sweet and savoury treats….

Earl Grey and Chocolate Shortbread Teabag Cookies

Earl Grey and Chocolate Shortbread Teabag Cookies

I made these cookies for my daughter’s 8th birthday party. The theme was “high tea”, so these teabag cookies were perfect for it. I had seen them on the web before and I was just waiting for the right occasion to try and make them myself. I have used my shortbread recipe and added some…

Ham and Cheese Sicilian Brioches

Ham and Cheese Sicilian Brioches

I made these Ham and Cheese Sicilian Brioches for my daughter’s 8th birthday party. When I was a child, I would spend part of my summer holidays at my nonni’s house in Palermo. Not far from where they used to live, there was a place called I Cuochini (aka the little cooks) where my mum…

Tahini Honey Roasted Cashews

Today I want to share with you a fantastic recipe for Tahini Honey Roasted Cashews.  Italians love and are quite famous for their aperitivo.  For who doesn’t know what aperitivo is… it is our way to start off dinner.  We usually drink some wine (cocktails have been introduced too, lately) and eat something with it,…
