Skillet Marmalade Pork Chops
Don’t you just LOVE pork chops?? I sure do. My mum would often stir fry them for a quick, yet delicious dinner.
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…
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
Sweet and Sour anything is my favourite Chinese dish. In fact, I really love my Sweet and Sour pork fritters and the other day I was severely craving them. The fact is that, after having my gallbladder removed, I am trying to avoid deep fried food (at least for the time being ;-)). That’s when…
Swordfish Caponata
Today’s recipe is a variation of one of the most popular Sicilian dishes: Caponata (click here for the recipe I shared a while ago). This Swordfish Caponata has all the ingredients of the original dish – including eggplant, olives and capers, plus swordfish. Caponata could be described as a cooked salad made up of fried…
SWEET AND SOUR TUNA WITH ONIONS
I really enjoy eating fresh tuna. It is very common in Italy, especially in Sicily so I kind of grew up on it. Since moving here, I haven’t seen it often at the stores, but when I do, I usually buy some. Today I will share with you one of the ways my mum would…
SARDE A BECCAFICO ALLA PALERMITANA
Today’s Regional Italian dish takes us back to Sicily… to Palermo to be precise. It is a very popular dish and like all popular dishes, every family has its own recipe or twist. Also each Sicilian city has its variations. This is my family’s version, from my father’s side… and it is the Palermo version. …
COCONUT CHICKEN TENDERS WITH APRICOT SAUCE
If you like sweet and sour dishes like me, this one will make you drool. I like chicken, but it can get a bit boring and bland… especially chicken breasts or tenders. What I like about this recipe is that it is actually very quick to make and it uses a few ingredients that I…

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…

SWEET AND SOUR PORK FRITTERS
Sweet and sour pork has always been my favourite Chinese take-out food. I am sure I have already said this, but I am a big fan of anything sweet and sour. It must be my Sicilian genes (it is a common cooking style over there) or my love for vinegar… whatever the case I never…
SWEET AND SOUR PUMPKIN WITH GARLIC AND MINT
This is a very versatile dish: it makes a great side dish for meats, but it can also be eaten as an appetizer or finger food on some toasted ciabatta. It is my family’s favourite vegetable dish. We all like its sweet and sour taste and I usually make a lot of it and keep…
TAMARIND CHUTNEY – IMLI KI CHUTNEY
This is a very easy recipe for a tasty tamarind chutney. It’s sweet and sour thanks to the perfect combination of sugar & jaggery and tamarind. The spice mix also gives it an intense flavour. You can make it as mild or as spicy as you like. I tend to make it mild so my…
"LIGHT" SWEET AND SOUR CAPSICUMS – PEPERONATA "LIGHT"
I love all things “sweet and sour”, or as we say “agrodolce”. There are many versions of this dish… I could say that probably every family has its own. In our home, we have 2 recipes! This is the “light” version, as the capsicums are not fried. It is really tasty and its tangy flavour…
