Risotto is a fine option for brunch, lunch or dinner. With a minimum of ingredients and fuss, it is ready in about a half-hour, and always appreciated.
Penne With Tomatoes, Basil and Two Cheeses
Roasted Mushrooms With Garlic
Mashed Eggplant With Capers, Scallions and Parsley
Summer is the perfect time to adopt the Mediterranean custom of serving savory little room temperature dishes for casual nibbling, referred to as mezze throughout the Middle East. An assortment of mezze can precede a larger feast, served as appetizers, or you may make an informal meal of mezze, picnic-style, indoors or out. This lemony Turkish-style eggplant dip fits the bill beautifully, spread on baguette toasts or crisp pita bread.
Leek, Potato and Zucchini Pancakes With Baby Lettuces
Cheddar Cheese Crackers
My son may not be convinced these can substitute for the ubiquitous orange crackers sold commercially, but I’ll take the homemade version any time.
Risotto With Tomato Consomme And Fresh Cheese
Black and Arborio Risotto With Beets and Beet Greens
The red from the beets will bleed into the white rice in this nutrient-dense risotto. Both the beets and the black rice contribute anthocyanins, flavonoids with antioxidant properties.
Grilled Peppers with Garlic Yogurt
This dish is very much in the Turkish spirit of mixing warm vegetables with cool, garlicky yogurt. Various types of peppers will work. This is a typical Turkish way to use grilled peppers. Turkish cuisine features cool, garlicky yogurt with warm vegetables. You can use a mix of peppers for this (in Turkey, longish, thin-skinned green peppers are the norm), and you don’t have to stick to sweet peppers, though I prefer the sweet against the pungent yogurt. Roasted peppers will keep for a week in the refrigerator. They will continue to release liquid, which they can marinate in. Warm the peppers before serving, or serve them at room temperature with the topping.

Chilled Corn Soup With Basil
No-cook, chilled blender soups are so quick to make it almost feels like cheating. This one stars sweet corn that’s been tarted up with buttermilk and lime juice, spiced with garlic and scallion, and imbued with fresh herbs. While straining it isn’t entirely necessary, it will give you a smoother, more elegant soup. But when it’s too hot to breathe, let alone dig out the strainer, you have our permission to skip it. Serve this in espresso cups or shot glasses as an hors d’oeuvre, or in bowls as a first course.
Polenta With Pomodoro Sauce
Cooking with your child is an act of relaxation, learning and intimacy. It’s love over a stove. For The Times, the New York chef Marco Moreira and his daughter, Francesca, cooked this simple dish together in 2012. It showcased the fresh tomato sauce they made and provides a recipe as appropriate to grandparents as their kin.
Risotto With Swiss Chard
Fennel and Mushroom Salad
Wild Rice and Arborio Risotto With Corn and Red Pepper
Though chefs these days get away with calling all sorts of grainy dishes risottos, the finished products often lack the creamy texture that makes classic risottos so appealing. But that creamy texture is possible if whole grains are cooked separately and combined with some arborio rice, the traditional risotto rice. Wild rice and corn contribute a New World character to this multicolored, multitextured risotto. The dish is delicious with or without the cheese.

Risotto with Tomatoes and Corn
This colorful risotto serves as a luxurious showcase for summer’s bounty of tomatoes and corn. This is about as colorful and summery a risotto as you can get. The tomatoes and broth team up as a rich medium for the rice. Don’t add the corn too soon, or it will develop a starchy texture like the rice. But cook it long enough to bring out its sweet flavor. Simmer the corn cobs for about 20 minutes in your broth to get a great sweet corn flavor.
Black Rice and Arborio Risotto With Artichokes
You can use fresh baby artichokes for this if they’re in season. Otherwise, it may be easier to find frozen ones.
Farfalle With Roasted Peppers
For this dish, inspired by Greek and Turkish ways with pasta and yogurt, I combined peppers from the market, peas from my freezer and herbs from my garden.
