For more quick pizza recipes, check out my Puff Pastry Margherita Pizza. Pizza is a huge favourite with almost everyone I know, but it’s too easy to settle for disappointing frozen pizzas from the supermarket or expensive delivery. It’s a bit of a secret that, with a few shortcuts, pizza is actually really easy to make at home! The idea came to me on my first trip to Italy years ago, when I bit into my real Italian pizza and realised it was quite different from what I normally ate....

No-Bake Raffaello Coconut Balls Yes I know, I am posting another dessert with coconut. But if you adore coconuts as much as I do, you will understand me! 😀 When I was a kid I loved eating Bounty and Raffaello candy! If you never heard of the latter before, it’s a popular coconut candy from the Italian manufacturer Ferrero. Each Raffaello praline contains a white milk cream, a spherical wafer, and one almond in the middle....

What Is Panna Cotta? Panna cotta (meaning ‘cooked cream’ in Italian) is a popular Italian dessert from the Piedmont region of Italy, traditionally made with sweetened cream and thickened with gelatin in a mold into a thick yet silky, creamy set custard consistency with slight wobble. It’s versatile and pretty, yet surprisingly simple to make in various flavors – vanilla, strawberry, coffee, lemon, and – of course- chocolate! Plus, this time, I’ve used simple ingredient swaps for a chocolate panna cotta recipe that’s dairy-free and vegan with no compromise on texture or flavor!...

This Ginger beer is very famous in Africa, especially in the Western regions. This recipe could be fermented or matured for a few hours, but I made it the unfermented version. It is typically made up of pounded ginger roots and lime mixed with water and sugar, but I found this mildly fruit-flavored ginger beer recipe that really fascinated me. The sweetness of the pineapple with the spicy ginger almost reminded me of the sugarcane juice that I used to drink back in India....

Beetroot is one of my favorite vegetables and I can eat beetroot poriyal all day long. Kids love beets because of the beautiful color and that is one good way to make them eat them. I especially love the beetroot curry/poriyal with curd rice as it changes the color of the rice to pink. When I give the kids, vegetables,s, and rice separately, most of the time, the vegetables are not touched and they give me the excuse of not having enough time to eat....

Prefer something with a bit more crunch? This winter salad with red cabbage, kale and pomegranate will use up any leftover raw red cabbage and goes great with cold turkey cuts. Braised red cabbage Braised means cooked long and slow in liquid until the main ingredient is soft and tender. In this case, red cabbage steeped in chicken stock, spiked with Alpine flavours.

published Oct 07, 2024 I’ve adapted this recipe from the dish I had in Siem Reap at a restaurant called Sambo, prepared by the incredibly talented chef Sokha Sombor.

Gooey caramel apple filling all wrapped around pillowy soft bakery-style cinnamon roll dough.

Fish-favourers, sea bass in brown butter caper sauce is essentially the same lip-smacking recipe coming to your rescue should you find yourself in the same predicament. What is chicken piccata? Although Italian by name, the piccata recipe came to American tables from France by way of Italy. Eaten, but not half as popular as in the US, Italians favour veal, veal scallopini, or fish such as swordfish, for this buttery and briny sauce....

This recipe had stumped me for the better part of two years. It all started with a chicken pot pie with biscuits that were “dropped” on top. You know, the kind that are similar to cheddar bay biscuits we all love. Fast forward a whole year later and the recipe still wasn’t working. Something about the drop biscuits, they just became soggy and cooked on the outside and raw in the middle....

I have plans to make the Christmas fruit cake and hence had bought a couple of boxes of the mixed fruit and cherries....
