Don’t be afraid of the name, this pasta is delicious! Halloween is the season for one of my favourite ingredients, the pumpkin (also known as butternut squash), but I am not a big fan of the pumpkin’s dessert recipes. So I tried to find an easy way to cook it as a meal and invented this Halloween […]
Give a little twist to the traditional Mexican recipe with this homemade creamy guacamole recipe, by adding a little bit of hot tabasco … and cream cheese. Yes, you’ve heard me! The cream cheese gives a creamy texture along with a nice flavour to your home made guacamole and makes it totally addictive, believe me! […]
The shakshuka, a Middle Eastern ratatouille with eggs, is a simple and quick recipe to prepare. The shakshuka original recipe is made with red peppers and tomatoes, and I like to add some courgettes. For seasoning, I use Ras el hanout, a mix of spices from Morocco, paprika and cinnamon, but you can also use cumin, […]

Baba ganoush is an eggplant dip traditional to Middle Eastern countries and especially in Lebanese cuisine. It looks like a cold purée, and is served with pita bread or raw vegetables sticks that people dip inside. The baba ganoush is usually made with roasted eggplant, a sesame seed cream called tahini, lemon, cumin and garlic. […]
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 […]
If you are looking for a fast and simple vegetable side dish, you are going to love the courgettes with lemon and cream! The preparation is very easy and requires only a few ingredients: courgettes, lemon, cream and dried herbs to flavour. Also if you want to make this recipe more fashionable for a dinner […]
Roast chicken is the typical family meal which is made when the whole family or good friends are gathered together. Served with vegetables cooked in the sauce or boiled, I like giving a little bit of a twist by adding some lemon, aromatic herbs such as thyme or sage, and a little ginger and couscous […]
After Christmas and its huge meals, we generally appreciate a few weeks of light, healthy and easy to prepare food to sweep away the previous excesses, which makes soup a very successful option. My favourite winter soups are the pumpkin curry soup with sweet potato and the sautéed vegetables soup but I always like to […]

It is a simple recipe for an elegant and original side dish that allows infinite modification. Those stuffed potatoes could easily become a classic of your kitchen! To prepare the potatoes, cut them […]
My most recent summer holidays was in Asturias, a region of North Western Spain famous for its beautiful landscape and great food, and on several occasions we enjoyed one of the traditional dishes over there, the Asturian poté. This Asturian stew is made with typical regional ingredients such as the the collard greens, a cabbage called “Berza”a […]
The homemade French toast is a dish made with slices of bread soaked in a mixture of eggs and milk, then toasted in a pan or baked in the oven. The original recipe, with cinnamon, has spread around the world and now you can find endless variations, with sweet and savoury ingredients. The French toast […]
I am a huge fan of gratins for their variety of tastes and their simplicity to make. For summer I found a lighter way to replace the traditional recipe with béchamel sauce by a combination of vegetables, mozzarella and Meatball gratin which is clearly more enjoyable when the temperature outside is 100º F (35ºC). This gratin […]
Sometimes you feel like eating a big meal without spending much time in the kitchen, so it is the perfect moment to enjoy a homemade fast-food. such as a hot-dog. The hot dog is one of my favourite dishes, especially if the Frankfurt Würstchen sausages are of good quality and the bread crunchy, baguette type. […]
