Spinach Soup With Pasta and Egg
Grilled Shrimp With Wilted Spinach and Peaches
The first principle of Indian spice cookery (and of spices in general) is that spices are best when bought whole and ground fresh, as happens in this recipe. Toasting and then grinding the spices — peppercorns, coriander, mustard seeds and cardamom pods — used for the spice rub helps to even out their flavors so that they blend with the mild flavor of the shrimp. Serve them over fresh ripe peaches and tender spinach wilted by a hot mixture of ginger, vinegar, orange juice and curry powder.
Stir-Fried Bean Sprouts With Sprouted Brown Rice
The sprouts I find most often at the supermarket are mung bean sprouts. But lately I’ve also found pea sprouts, which are more delicate and have a delicious fresh flavor. The stir-fry time is much shorter for pea sprouts, about one to two minutes total.

Turkish-Style Braised Eggplant
Turkey and Red Pepper Hash
This sweet and spicy turkey and red pepper hash is much like a beef picadillo that might be used to fill an empanada or to stuff a chili pepper. I make quick soft tacos most often with warm corn tortillas.

Parippu Themparaduwa (Dal With Curry Leaves)
This Sri Lankan dal of tender lentils, like other dals on Sri Lankan tables, are central to every meal and usually served with several other dishes, such as kukul mas maluwa (chicken curry). Because it is part of a larger meal, dal is often seasoned simply. This version is as well, but it is richer in taste from curry leaves, which infuse the lentils with their flavor. Dry or frozen curry leaves are fine substitutes if you can’t find fresh ones. You can add some cumin or coriander powder, too, if you’d like, or skip the Maldive fish flakes for a vegan dish. This dal is easy to cook and can be refrigerated in a covered container for up to three days. Serve with long-grain rice, bread or any of your favorite roti or other Indian flatbreads.

Pasta With Roasted Red Peppers and Goat Cheese
Years ago, I stayed with an Italian friend in Bologna who worked long hours at his job. By the time he got home, he was hungry, so he’d start water boiling and cast about his tiny kitchen to see what he could use for dinner. Then, to my fascination, he’d whip up a delicious pasta sauce from almost nothing: a few anchovies and some walnuts, or a can of tuna and another of beans. Yesterday’s bread became today’s bread crumbs, browned in olive oil with garlic and tossed with spaghetti, olives, capers and jarred tomato purée. I try to keep a jar of roasted peppers handy at all times. They’re useful for panini, pizzas and especially pastas like this one. Spanish piquillo peppers are particularly sweet, but bell peppers will do as well. If you have basil, it’s delicious in this dish — but not required.

Puffy Corn Pancake With Blackberry Sauce
This pancake is similar to a recipe that ran in The Times in 1966 called David Eyre’s pancake, named for a man whose fame seems to rest mainly on this tasty invention. Here, in addition to the corn kernels I wanted to use up, I stirred in some cornmeal to highlight the corn factor. Because cornmeal can make things heavy and I feared the pancake might become too dense, I increased the number of eggs in the batter to help it rise and puff. I mixed in a little black pepper to contrast with the sweetness of the corn, and then simmered together a speedy blackberry syrup to drizzle on top. The recipe is versatile enough to make over and over, and I’m sure it will take me through the end of corn season.
Stir-fried Tofu With Carrots and Red Peppers
Make sure to cut the carrots and red peppers into the same size julienne (julienne are thin strips) so that they cook at the same rate. Both of these vegetables keep well in the refrigerator, so this should be a dish you can pull together easily.

Pork, Chickpea And Red Pepper Paella
Purée of Celery Root Soup
This is one of those dishes that illustrates how recipes can be tweaked without any noticeable effect. It called for milk; I had skim milk. It wanted butter for sautéing; I used olive oil.

This dish, called muhammara, is a beautiful coarse purée of roasted red peppers, chilies, walnuts, garlic and pomegranate molasses.
