Bringing you a flavorful appetizer, snack or side dish: these Pan-fried Spicy Green Peas are the easiest Indian recipe to make and a delicious bite to eat. The sweetness of the peas and the acidity of the lemon make this recipe very fresh and mixes with the intense flavor of spices, with a most surprising result. Undoubtedly, due to its intense flavor, this recipe is a great representative of Indian cuisine (you can also find them as "batany fry").

cod fritters
These cod fritters are delicious freshly made, when they are still piping hot. You can serve them with some kind of sauce (mayonnaise, tartar...), as chunks of stewed beans or on their own, which is how I like them best. Although surely you can think of other ways to consume them.

Corn cobs with a touch of garlic
You will agree with me that one of the easiest, fastest and most effective ways to cook corn is to toast it on the grill. For this reason, when the grill or barbecue is lit, take the opportunity to add a few panochas to the fire that will delight everyone! If you like them as much as I do, pay attention, because with this recipe for corn on the cob with a touch of garlic you are going to enjoy like children.

Appetizers for good weather
The good weather is already here!

Focaccia with olives and mozzarella (Ligurian Focaccia)
Today we are going to prepare a very traditional focaccia because, apart from a dough in the purest Italian style, we will add mozzarella and give it a touch of the Ligurian area thanks to the seductive aroma of taggiaca olives. And we will also add romesco, the spices you can never miss.
Beef spring rolls
I love the crunchiness of spring rolls. Making them at home takes very little time and allows me to make the filling to my liking or adapt it to the ingredients I have at the time. Today, we bring you a good recipe for veal rolls, with a touch of curry that makes them delicious in contrast to the sweetness of the brick pastry that surrounds them.
Pears stuffed with gorgonzola wrapped with Serrano ham
I am in love with the combination of the sweetness and softness of the pear with the flavor, intensity and saltiness of the gorgonzola cheese. It is a combination that I often have as an appetizer or snack to kill hunger: pear cut with bits of gorgonzola cheese. As is, delicious! But you can give this combination a more beautiful and rounded finish if you wrap it with Serrano ham and melt it in the oven. A marvel!
