Easy to prepare with a mix of sweet and sour flavours, you can prepare it in many different ways either with meat, fish, vegetables, fresh fruits, dry fruits, nuts… This lemon meatball tagine, or kefta tagine, is one of the classics that I make on a […]
Originally used to finish the risotto left-overs, this risotto croquettes recipe can be turned into an elegant Christmas meal appetizer with smoked salmon, “canapés” style. The risotto is usually not very good if reheated, so if you have any letf-overs it is better to turn it into risotto croquettes: a little bit of breadcrumbs and […]

Don’t be afraid of the name, this pasta is delicious!

It feels like Summer is coming back again this week, so it is time to prepare my easy chicken and red pepper pasta recipe. The nice thing about this dish is that all the ingredients, red pepper, chicken and cream, slowly cook together in a pan for about 20 minutes so the red pepper spread over them has a subtle flavour and pink […]

This winter I’ve used my oven a lot, since I realized recently that it is a perfect way to cook roasted vegetables and meat with very little preparation, and with great results! To roast the vegetables gives them a nice smoky taste and make them much nicer to eat than boiled vegetables.After the roasted root […]
