Middle Eastern ratatouille with eggs, Shakshuka

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, […]

Easy chicken and red pepper pasta

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 […]

Lentil salad flavoured with fresh coriander & cardamom

This lentil salad is surprisingly fresh and spicy at the same time, thanks to the herbs and seasoning which blends perfectly with the mildest flavour of lentils. Cardamom seeds are commonly used in  Asian cuisine, especially in India where they come from, and they bring a lemony hint to the salad. This recipe comes from […]

Meatball gratin with courgettes & mozzarella

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 […]

Caprese tart with pesto and mozzarella

This very simple caprese tart is perfect for a successful, quick and easy-to-make meal. It takes only five minutes to prepare if you use a pesto sauce from a pot, and the tart is very good like that. If you have 10 more minutes, it worth making a home-made pesto sauce: the flavours of basil, […]
