Chicken Fricassée is a classic French stew that is rich, creamy, and loaded with flavour. Fricassée comes from the French words frire (to fry) and casser (to break into pieces). It is usually prepared with chicken drumsticks or thighs or both, but feel free to use any other protein you like. Bone in skin on chicken legs are first browned and then gently cooked in a delicious wine sauce with mushrooms and herbs (thyme, estragon or flat parsley), then cream and egg yolks are added to finish off. Traditionally it’s served with rice, bread or potatoes, but you can pair this with cauliflower rice, zoodles or just a simple salad if you are on keto way of eating. A small amount of xanthan gum, instead of flour, was used to thicken the sauce.
I find xanthan gum isn’t necessary as the sauce is pretty thick because I used crème fraîche and yolks. If you ain’t on keto, sprinkle 2-3 tablespoons of plain flour into the softened onions to make a roux, which helps to thicken the sauce.

Stifado is a hearty Greek stew, usually made with braising beef, slow-cooked in a rich red wine tomato sauce with aromatic herbs, spices and loads of pearl onions or shallots. This cheat version, slightly adapted from Sainsbury Magazine, uses the homemade Greek meatballs instead of chunks of braising beef to deliver the layers of rich flavour in less than an hour.

If you are looking for a delicious and easy salad recipe, these tender princess beans with pickled carrots over ricotta cream are an ideal choice. Princess beans are small green beans that are harvested young and only have very small or no seeds. You can use French haricots verts, which are much thinner, longer and tender than regular green beans. Pickled carrots can be prepared one day ahead, actually it tastes better after 24 hours and will stay fresh and crunchy for at least a week.

A Godnkipferl is a super soft, fluffy brioche crescent in a large format (as long as 50cm and thick as an upper arm). The Godnkipferl / Godparents Crescent, aka Osterkipferl / Easter Crescent, is a pastry with a long tradition: in some parts of Upper Austria, godparents give their godchildren this oversized brioche crescent at Easter. They are usually braided, either with three, four or six strands and sprinkled with pearl sugar. However, you can also just simply roll the dough, with or without sultanas, into a long roll, then form into a crescent.

If you love cheesy pull apart bread, but don’t want to indulge yourself on carbs, this pull-apart aubergine is the answer. You can easily serve it as a main course or as an appetizer for any family gathering. I used a mix of fresh mozzarella and vintage Cheddar for the recipe, but if you are fancy that “cheese pull” effect, then replace vintage Cheddar for the shredded Mozzarella. You may not need all the pesto sauce, use the leftover for the noodles or double the recipe.

The secret to stress-free, relaxed entertaining is with these easy nobake tartlets using premade tart shells from a local grocery store for convenience. Not only are they absolutely tasty, they are also ready in 15 minutes, meaning you can whip it up at a moment’s notice. Use all-butter crust shells if you can, after all, nothing beats what butter can provide. Otherwise, I would recommend making your own using this or this.

Making rye bread at home can seem a little intimidating because sticky heavy rye dough is fussy and more challenging to work with due to its weak gluten, but really there is no need for it with this easy date and rye bread recipe which used just 30% of rye. The dough is a bit sticky, but don’t compensate for the stickiness by adding more flour during kneading or you would end up with a dry and hard bread. Keep a bowl of cold water handy for dipping your hands in, rather than adding more flour to the dough if you are going to hand-knead the dough. Towards the end of kneading, you can also oil your hands to keep the dough from sticking to your hands. The wholegrain rye flour and sweet dates are a perfect pairing and this crusty dark loaf goes brilliantly with some aged cheese or simply slathered with butter.

Whether as a snack between meals, with an afternoon coffee or as an office treat: these apricot oat slices taste great and are a delight! They are easy to transport and can also be made in advance as they stay fresh in the fridge for several days. Conveniently, you don't need to use the oven, just chill them. Oat flakes, dried apricots, coconut flakes and almond meal are not only filling but also nutritious. A silky coating of Lindt white chocolate provides the fun gourmet factor. The subtly hot and fruity chilli thread are the perfect addition to elevate chocolate taste, adding a delightful kick to each bite.

You can make adobo with meat, seafood, tofu or even vegetables and there are countless twists on adobo. I found this easy and interesting recipe on Olive Magazine and it didn’t disappoint. The sauce is deeply fragrant, complex, wonderfully smoky, with a gentle spicy kick from chipotle chilli. I served the chicken with a smacked cucumber salad, but you can serve any salad you prefer.

A simple and tasty aubergine stew with chickpeas simmered in a garlicky tomato sauce from Lebanon. Traditonally, the aubergine would have been deep-fried in copious amounts of olive oil. I chose to airfry them with avocado oil which I need to use up soon, and it’s easier and less messy. Great as an appetizer, topping for some crusty bread or flatbread or as a main course. It can be served warm or at room temperature. Baharat, an Arabic spice mix, gives the maghmour the necessary zing and makes it really tasty.
