As you probably already know, risotto is a traditional dish of Italian cuisine that stands out for its creaminess and delicious flavor. This preparation is highly versatile and can be made with a wide variety of ingredients, making it an ideal option to adapt to our taste. Among the most emblematic risottos are mushroom risotto, cheese risotto, or this risotto nero with baby squid that will be a hit.

Raise your hand if you want a plate of sautéed gnocchi with mushrooms and spinach! Since I imagine many hands will go up and I don't have a pan that big, I think the best solution to make sure no one misses out on their portion of gnocchi is to share the recipe with you. That way, after trying it, you can make it as many times as you like and also adapt it to your taste.

If there's one dish that tastes like summer, it's shrimp and prawns. Cooked any way, I find them delicious. This recipe for shrimp flambéed with whisky and sweet peppers is a fantastic option to enjoy them for both lunch and dinner and also, why not, as a great appetizer.

I put on the apron today with a very French air, and I do it for a double reason: this tartiflette recipe is a typical French dish, and it also includes plenty of cheese. Cheese and potato—oh la la!

Eating vegetables, besides being beneficial for our body, is a pleasure! If we limit ourselves to tasting them boiled, we're missing out on a whole world of varied and tasty flavors. And the best example I can show you is this recipe for pan-roasted cauliflower with saffron butter. A delicacy!

This Asian-style stir-fried vegetable recipe is a well-rounded Set of flavors that everyone loves. With artichokes, mushrooms, scallions, green asparagus, and corn, this luxurious dish is full of color and flavor. It requires very little cooking time so the vegetables keep all their flavor and retain that crisp bite I love in every mouthful.

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

The baked sausage and ricotta meatball recipe I'm sharing with you today is a dish you're going to love; it has a touch of Italy, where they say they make the juiciest meatballs in the world. The cheese they contain, both in the meat and in the sauce, is undoubtedly responsible for that, turning them into such a tasty bite that young and old will want seconds.

Adding vegetables to certain doughs, such as in pizza, bread, savory muffins or crêpes, gives us a wide range of possibilities to tinker with traditional recipes and turn them into something completely new, with much more striking and appetizing flavors and colors. And along the way it gives us a solution to get the kids at home to eat them more often and, sometimes, almost without even noticing.

The recipe for savory spinach pancakes (you may also know them as "spinach fritters") is a clear example of this.

What I love most about summer is salads, cold soups, and ice creams. That's why I always try to prepare a wide variety of each so people at home don't "get bored" at mealtime. We can make an incredible assortment beyond the lettuce, tomato, and cucumber salad. One of the latest dishes that has us totally hooked is these coconut-battered prawns with grapefruit salad. It's a true explosion of flavor and textures, very different from the other kinds of salads we usually eat.

Healthy, fun, tasty and very easy to prepare. These zucchini and feta fritters have everything to help you impress your guests or to treat yourself. They can be served as a starter or as a side dish, although nothing prevents them from being the stars of the aperitif.

Zucchini takes center stage in this skillet bread recipe: the zucchini bread recipe becomes a staple once you've made it just once. The zucchini gives the bread plenty of juiciness, while goat cheese adds intensity. You have to try it!
