A salad to kick start the day or as a light "brinner" (breakfast for dinner), this flavourful breakfast salad has all the makings of a much-loved classic BLT: crispy bacon, fresh romaine lettuce, juicy grape tomatoes, sourdough croutons and a creamy mayo-based dressing. And of course some soft boiled eggs to add protein and to keep you satiated until lunchtime! Leave out the croutons if you are on low carb way of eating.

Eggplant Stacks with Gorgonzola and Sun-dried Tomato Pistou

Wednesday, March 12, 2025

This recipe is extremely easy and you can substitute the French pistou with Italian pesto sauce if you like. Serves well on it’s own as a sort of starter, or eat as a side with some crusty bread.
Pistou, from the Provençal dialect of Occitan, meaning pounded, is a Provençal sauce similar to pesto alla Genovese, but doesn’t include nuts (sometimes contains cheese though), made only with basil, garlic and olive oil. Here we use sun-dried tomatoes, fresh basil, and garlic blended in olive oil until combined and still a bit chunky.
Sweating eggplants before cooking makes the vegetable drier, which helps it absorb less fat while it cooks. Plus, extracting moisture meant drawing out some of the bitterness.

German asparagus meets Italian balsamic vinegar, then covered with a poached egg on a bed of baby spinach and served with a simply green sauce. If classic Hollandaise is becoming a little too monotonous for you, you should definitely try this seasonal explosion of flavour. It’s simple and fresh and goes great with steak or chicken or to enjoy as a light meal. Shave some Parmesan over if desired.

Baby Spinach Salad with Avocado and Blackberries

Saturday, March 08, 2025

Make the most of fresh seasonal produce with this easy, but scrumptious spring salad. If you haven’t tried pairing fruit with your salad before, you are missing out. Seasonal fruits add not only colour, but also right amount of sweetness and texture to an otherwise boring green salad. Feel free to substitute baby spinach with other leafy greens.

Pull Apart Aubergine

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.

Son-in-law Eggs - Thai Fried Eggs

Wednesday, January 29, 2025

Son-in-law eggs (kai loug kheuh), a Thai street food staple, are pre-boiled for 6 minutes to achieve their coveted creaminess, then dropped into piping hot fat / oil to crisp up.
In Thai legend, these fried boiled eggs were cooked by a protective mother who was less than happy with how her daughter was being treated by her son-in-law. So, she served him two deep-fried eggs as a delicious warning that a certain pair of his own will be next in line for the deep fryer.
Gruesome lore aside, these eggs are tangy, sweet, salty, and savory and are a hit with kids, namely for their crisp golden exterior, creamy centre and the rich, sweet and sour caramel sauce they’re coated in. This recipe from Delicious is a more adult version spiced up with fresh and fried chilli peppers.

Charred Sweetheart Cabbage and Butter Beans with Caperberry Vinaigrette

Budget-friendly, healthy and versatile, these charred sweetheart cabbage with white beans and freshly grated Parmesan will be a favourite on your dinner table in no time at all. Use savoy if you can’t find sweetheart cabbage and cannellinis are a great substitute for butter beans.
Sweetheart, also known as pointed cabbage or hispi cabbage, is a part of the cruciferous vegetable family, but milder, sweeter and more salad-like in taste and texture, and it also cooks faster.

A meatless and gluten-free take on Turkish koftas / meatballs with finely grated pumpkin and lots of warming spices. The creamy avocado sauce is the perfect balance to the aromatic, crunchy kofta. A great recipe that both vegetarians and carnivores would enjoy. I have shaped kofta into sausage form, but you can shape them into balls or patties.

Roasted Brussels Sprouts with Sunflower Cream

If you’re watching your carbs intake and have no problem with sulfur, which can cause bloating and gas, then brussels sprouts are for you as they are loaded with fiber, vitamin C and are low in carbs. I have thredded them onto skewers but you could do them without the skewer if you wanted them as a festive side. You don't need sunflower seed cream to serve those roasted Brussels sprouts, but it's so nutty, healthful and delicious on anything!

Belgian Endive Salad with Apple and Chicken Cracklings

Endives and thinly sliced apple are tossed with fresh herbs and toasted pine nuts in a simple vinaigrette for a light, crunchy and refreshing winter salad. The bitter flavour and crisp texture of Belgian endive pairs particularly well with sweet tart apple and nutty pinenuts. I have also added some chicken skin cracklings, a delicious by-product of making schmaltz, for extra flavour and crunch. You can use croutons or bacon instead.

Roasted Kohlrabi with Feta and Dill

Roasted kohlrabi salad with a basic shallot vinaigrette is a simple and delicious way to turn this knobby German turnip into a tasty side dish. Kohlrabi is part of the cabbage family and comes in two colours, pale green and the less-common deep purple. They both taste the same and the flesh of both is pale green to white. I didn't peel the skin for this recipe as it's edible, but you could if you prefer. If the kohlrabi bulbs you bought come with leaves (they are edible too), snip off and wrap the leaves in damp paper towels. They will stay fresh for a few days in the fridge and the unpeeled bulbs will keep for up to a month.

Lamb Neck Roast with Rough-cut Chermoula

Wednesday, November 27, 2024

© 2024 | http://angiesrecipes.blogspot.com


Gelatin rich lamb neck is a relatively economical cut, but no less delicious. Similar to oxtail, the connective and fatty tissues marbling the meat make the lamb neck a rich cut perfect for low and slow cooking with proper seasoning. With a little patience and love, you can transform this inexpensive cut of meat into the most flavourful, buttery, and fork-tender treat.
Chermoula is a tangy herb condiment used in North African cooking. It is traditionally used to flavour fish or seafood, but it can be used on other meats or vegetables. It is somewhat similar to the Latin American chimichurri.
