Have you ever made gnocchi at home? Although the most traditional are homemade potato gnocchi, these sweet potato gnocchi with honey and browned butter are a real delight and I assure you that making them is not difficult. This is an easy and quick recipe, and very impressive. Also, these sweet potato gnocchi are much more colorful and, sautéed in browned butter, sage and garlic, just as I suggest, the result is truly very flavorful.

Today I bring you an easy, light, and equally delicious recipe. Inspired by the traditional rösti or Swiss potato omelette, these crispy potato and vegetable pancakes with yogurt sauce are the perfect side for lunches and dinners. Served with Greek yogurt sauce with mint and lemon, they have a very fresh touch, but if you want a vegan recipe, you can serve them without it and you'll still have a very nutritious dish that everyone at home will love, young and old.

Looking for a complete first course that is healthy, tasty and quick to prepare? This recipe for chickpeas with roasted vegetables in the Ninja CRISPI air fryer has it all. Chickpeas provide plant-based protein, fiber and minerals like iron and magnesium, making them an excellent alternative for lighter, balanced recipes.

There are many recipes for eggplant Parmesan, but the one I'm sharing today will be a game-changer. The moment you bring it to the table and they try it at home, they won't want another. That's what happened to me and I'm convinced I won't be the only one it happens to. This dish is an absolute delight, with a wonderful, creamy aroma and flavor, full of nutrients and color—a dish to be enjoyed from start to finish.

Making gyozas at home is much easier than it seems, and the result is an authentic delight. These small Japanese dumplings combine the best of both worlds: a thin, soft wrapper on the outside, with a juicy, flavorful filling on the inside. Today I’ll show you how to make chicken gyozas, a simple and very satisfying version that you can prepare with ingredients you likely already have at home.

As soon as the afternoons get shorter, I really feel like making recipes that require turning on the oven. One example is this winter galette, which hides a wonderful filling of roasted pumpkin and feta cheese and has a distinctly Mediterranean aroma, thanks to the thyme and oregano used to season it.

Autumn arrives and with it, always hand in hand, one of the undisputed stars of the season: the pumpkin! As a small tribute, today I want to share a very easy recipe to make — a pasta dish with pumpkin and Parmesan cream that is simply delicious and that you can prepare for any occasion and with any type of pasta.

This cauliflower and coconut curry, aromatic and very comforting, is a recipe you have to try. If, like me, you enjoy dishes with that distinctive spiced touch of Indian cuisine, you'll relish it from the moment you reach for the spices to prepare the mise en place. If not, I suggest you give it a chance, because the result is delightful.

Edamame has become one of the trendiest healthy snacks. You’ve likely seen it in Japanese restaurants or on Asian food menus, served as a light, flavorful starter. But the best part is that making it at home is very simple and quick. If you’re wondering how to cook edamame so it turns out perfect, with that glossy, slightly toasted touch, here is the complete guide.

If you'd like to take a walk through Naples, I suggest starting by preparing one of its most popular and passionate Italian pasta recipes, spaghetti alla puttanesca. You'll see how, without leaving your home, they transport you to Italy while you cook the sauce. And as soon as you bring the plate to the table and the spaghetti to your mouth, just close your eyes and you'll feel as if you were eating in one of its seaside restaurants.

There are traditional dishes that should be cooked and savored at least once in a lifetime. An example is the French onion soup I’m sharing today. A soup in a casserole, cooked slowly, that only asks for a bit of patience so the result is as spectacular as the classic recipes always are. If you haven’t had the chance to try this soup with gratinéed cheese, don’t miss this casserole recipe. If you already know it, you know as well as I do that the aroma and flavor of this French onion soup are incomparable.

As you may already know, I love fresh pasta. Making it, cooking it and savoring it. I like it in all its forms and with any sauce or accompaniment. Since I also enjoy adapting recipes (forgive me, purists), today I bring you these Spaghetti with cuttlefish and shrimp ragù, a delicious dish with lots of summer flavor, because I believe seafood dishes taste like summer.
