This recipe of Soft Chocolate Chip Cookies with a pinch of Sea Salt is very easy to prepare (less than 30 minutes) and gives about 30 cookies, so enough to survive a full week-end. I’ve been doing something new for the past few weeks: instead of buying cookies from the supermarket, which are usually very […]

A few weeks ago, I was reminded of a traditional French recipe of mashed potatoes and stewed minced meat casserole that my grand-father used to make for us, the Hachis parmentier. Very similar to the Shepherd’s pie, it’s a winter comfort food classic that is also enjoyable during the rest of the year with a […]

My darling and I happily enjoyed tacos and other delicious Mexican dishes such as the carnitas over a few weeks. A decision was […]
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! 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 […]

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, […]
Fresh fruit cakes, flans, or crumbles are my favourite desserts. I love the melting texture of cooked fruit, at times almost crystallized, mixed with the sweet and soft dough.
