Chorizo, Mozzarella and Vegetable Mini Pots
My father gave me two beautiful Le Creuset mini-casserole pots. They've been sitting collecting dust in my cupboard for six months now because I couldn't figure out what to do with them. This Bank Holiday weekend I thought I would invite a friend over and see if I could come up with some way to use them. The resulting mini casserole seemed to go down pretty well so I thought I would post it here. Forgot to take after photos so an in-progress shot will have to do.
Annette's Corn Flake Marshmallow Wreaths
Growing up, my friend's mom, Annette, would make these cookies at Christmas. We had no problem eating an entire batch in one sitting. I recommend making multiple batches, but not doubling the recipe, because you need to form the wreaths while the mixture is hot.
Charred Carrots with Orange Peel and Mint
A lot of people hate cooked carrots, I imagine because of the bland school lunch variety that has been boiled within an inch of it's life. Fair enough. But I believe this crispy and sweet version would be enough to convert even the most devout hater. Roasted at high heat until they are blistered and tender crisp, the orange peel highlights their sweetness, and the mint brings and element of irresistible freshness.
April Bloomfield's English Porridge
This porridge recipe is just right. The steel-cut bits keep their pop, while the rolled oats melt around them—and that perfect texture only takes 20 minutes!

Chez Panisse's Potatoes and Onions Roasted with Vinegar and Thyme
This recipe is one of the first recipes I ever cooked using the new potatoes from my garden. I used Russian Banana's and boy did it make them shine. I still use this recipe often. It is a standard, it's easy and delicious with all kinds of other dishes.
Kale, Mushrooms and Chilli on Sourdough Toast
I was in the farm shop yesterday and spotted some cavalo nero, that beautiful dark green Tuscan kale and it reminded me of a regular lunch last winter - kale, mushrooms and chilli on sourdough toast. As ever with kale you feel this is really doing you good, the chilli adds further pep. Cheap and delicious, a rewarding result.

Overnight Breakfast: Barley Porridge
A hot breakfast is one of life's luxuries, but rarely do we take the time on a busy morning to make anything that requires heat. This porridge is the perfect answer, because all it requires is that you turn to oven on to a low temperature, stir a few things in a casserole dish, and go to bed. You wake up to a delicious fragrant breakfast that will have you smiling all day. What's not to love? And even better - if you have a pile of overnight guests to feed for breakfast and you don't feel like cooking - you won't have to. Double the recipe, shove it in the oven the night before and it will be ready to go when you all wake up.

Quick, Easy, Non-Greasy Spiced Roasted Almonds
I love roast almonds, and I love them spiced, but I find that when I use oil to make the spices stick they sometimes come out unpleasantly greasy. I tried water, and it solved the problem. You can add whatever you like. Have fun.
Blood Orange Prosecco Jelly
When blood oranges are in season, I’m always smitten by their marbled beauty and juicy tang. Though I’m happy to eat them plain, I have long wanted to make a jelly with their juice and this year thought Prosecco and crystallized ginger would be terrific additions. They definitely are!
Hachiya Persimmon Lassi
Sometimes things that you hate have a funny way of growing on you in an addictive manner. Once I got over my unfortunate introduction to Hachiya persimmons (The first time I tasted it, bit into a bright colored but inedibly tannic fruit that put me off it for a long time), My first instinct was to incorporate it into a lassi since to me the flavor & texture was reminiscent of the ugly brown Sapota fruit (that we called 'Chikoo' in hindi) My mother would blend the odd overripe chickoo with fresh yogurt & lots of ice and serve it up as the perfect drink for a hot Mumbai Summer afternoon. I like to blend the pulp with yogurt and a touch of chai spice.
The Ultimate Dosa Recipe
It is impossible not to smile when you are about to break off a piece of crispy, savory, crepe-thin bliss. My mom is undoubtedly the best Dosa recipe maker.
Leeks with peas and bacon
Somehow I forgot about this recipe until this moment, in spite of the fact that I make it as a side dish once every couple of weeks. It's terribly simple, but packs a lot of flavor and is as good as a side dish (for almost anything, but especially roast chicken or fish) as it is a filling for an omelet the next day. I have a feeling I saw a picture of leeks with peas and bacon somewhere once and seized upon the idea, but I have no idea where it originally came from. I'm glad I have it though!
No cream creamy leek soup
I don't eat cream but love leeks. This is a go-to soup at our house anyone can make. The boys like it too. Just don't call them leeks. It's potty humour.
Zucchini Rösti
Zucchini Rosti is the Swiss recipe of hash browns. It’s a big pancake made out of shredded potatoes, crispy on the outside and soft in the centre. Try it!
Zuppa di Clams With Savory Crouton
For this zuppa di clams recipe, copious amounts of fresh and canned clams sit on a generous "crouton" of savory Bread flavored with Garlic and Pecorino Romano.
Pappa di Pomodoro
For me this soup will always conjure warm memories of four college girls crowded around a table in a chilly apartment in rome. When I studied there with a few of my best friends we saved our pennies for travel, wine, and the occasional pizza from the shop downstairs. On rainy days I would make big kettles of this soup for just a few euros and we would stuff ourselves with it while we imbibed in jugged red wine. Because the main ingredients are used in equal parts, it's really easy to scale this recipe based on the number of people you're serving, or how hungry you are. This one's for my girls, Mary, Andrea and Brooke! xx
Caramelized Onion, Broccoli Rabe and Sweet Potato Hash
This started as a refrigerator clean-out but turned out to be a delicious Sunday brunch. Feel free to substitute the rabe for another green like spinach or kale. This is a recipe that's made for adaptation.
Nana's Homemade Applesauce
Once you’ve had a homemade recipe, you will never, ever, ever go back to store bought applesauce. Trust me. I won’t eat any other kind of applesauce anymore.
