How To Feed Series: Clementine Fennel Potatoes

April 20, 2017

Inspired by one of my favourite recipes from "Jerusalem: A Cookbook" by Yotam Ottolenghi and Sami Tamimi, the mix of flavours in this dish is absolutely wonderful. Orange, fennel, thyme, mustard seeds and a generous dose of ouzo (an anise-flavoured aperitif) makes a perfect accompaniment to chicken, fish or even chickpeas.

Latke crust and Vegetable Mini Quiches

March 21, 2017

These mini quiches, cradled in a latke-inspired crust, are perfect little appetizers for brunch or dinner. Not only are they easy to make, but they can be made in advance and enjoyed either cold or slightly warmed. The silky egg filling is almost overflowing with herbs and vegetables, making them fantastic breakfasts on-the-go during the week ...

How to Feed Vegetarian and Gluten-Free Friends: Roasted Squash Gratin

February 1, 2017

Feeding people with dietary constraints is both rewarding and challenging. It can be tough to find recipes that suit restricted diets but are still delightful enough for a weekend dinner with friends. But when the recipe turns out and the guests are raving, that is the rewarding part.

Lentil Tacos with Pickled Cabbage, Tahini Cream and Microgreens

January 16, 2017

I absolutely love tacos for a weeknight dinner. They're not only delicious and have endless topping variations, but they're pretty easy and require very little cooking time. Most of the work is actually done at the table by your guests, so you (the chef) just have to put out the toppings (phew!). For this recipe, the toppings I've selected are ...

Carrot Top Pesto & Spiraled Zucchini

September 25, 2016

Disclaimer: Hamilton Beach provided me with their 3-in-1 Spiralizer in order to conduct this review. All words, recipes and opinions are entirely my own. Carrot tops don’t get nearly the attention they deserve. For years, I used to chop off the leafy greens that crowned the root and throw them away. That is, until I discovered you ...

Watermelon Sangria Slushie

August 11, 2016

As you might be able to tell from scouring my blog, I’m not big on cocktails. Or, I should say, I’m not big on making cocktails. I would much rather have someone else make them for me! But sometimes, when the mood strikes, I try my hand at making a simple cocktail. This Watermelon Sangria Slushie is not only a simply cocktail, it ...

Garlic Scape Pasta Primavera

June 28, 2016

Garlic scapes are one of my favourite summertime vegetables. The long and twisting vegetable curls and pokes in all directions when they are presented at the local market, hanging over the edges of each basket messily. When you buy them they tend to come in large quantities- almost at a point when you’re not quite sure what you could ...
