Mixed Berry Crepes
Without a doubt, crêpes are a marvelous invention. That's why they get their well-deserved recognition on International Crêpe Day. These red fruit crêpes combine two things I love: crêpes on one hand, and on the other, a perfect mix of strawberries, blueberries, currants and raspberries, with just the right amount of sugar to slightly mellow the pleasant tartness of the red fruits. A delight!
Crispy potato and vegetable fritters with yogurt sauce
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.
Chicken gyozas: Japanese chicken and vegetable dumplings
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.
Traditional tortilla with bread and tomato
Listen closely, because I'm not bringing you a tortilla with pan con tomate, but I'm bringing the traditional recipe for a pan con tomate tortilla. I love it!
This pan con tomate tortilla is a traditional Catalan recipe, but nowadays it is little known and you will rarely find it.
Goat Cheese Frittata
I assure you this goat cheese frittata is a fantastic option for many dinners, although I also admit that sometimes it has been a wonderful Sunday lunch. Just as there are endless possibilities with omelettes, the frittata offers the same versatility, making both great recipes for using up ingredients. For today’s version, I pair this cheese frittata with spinach, garlic and pepper. A combination I love!
Traditional Shepherd's Pie: Irish Lamb Pie
Today I take you on a journey with this delicious traditional Shepherd’s Pie: Irish lamb pie. This typical meat pie is a true classic in Irish kitchens, and a dish that cannot be missing on Saint Patrick's Day. The celebration of St. Patrick's Day has crossed borders and I'm sure most of us mark the date in green on our calendars, like the green of the shamrock that the saint used as an example to explain the Holy Trinity.
Potato rösti with smoked chorizo
If there's a pan that can perfectly brown a good potato rösti, it's undoubtedly De Buyer's Mineral iron pan. Its ability to retain and distribute heat evenly makes every bite achieve that perfect balance between a crispy exterior and a tender center.
