Sesame Roast Chicken with Baby Turnips and Tomato Gravy
Thursday, September 24, 2026Chanterelle Scrambled Eggs
Monday, September 14, 2026Turn an ordinary scrambled egg meal into a gourmet feast with one of the most versatile and delicious wild mushrooms-chanterelles. I dry cleaned the chanteerelles with paper towels, but if prefer water, just make sure do it quickly rather than soaking them so they do not get soggy. And dry them off with a clean towel. Pre-salt the egg mixture 5-10 minutes before cooking changes the structure of proteins, making the scarmbled eggs much more tender.

Poulet Mafé - Senegalese Chicken & Peanut Stew
Saturday, July 04, 2026| |
|
Mafé or maafe, a peanut stew with just the right amount of heat, known throughout West Africa, originated in the Senegambia region. It features a rich, velvet-smooth gravy made from ground peanuts or unsweetened peanut butter and tomatoes, loaded with tender meat and/or vegetables, and served over rice or couscous. While lamb and beef provide a traditional, deeply flavourful broth, other variations like chicken, seafood and tofu pairs brilliantly with the sauce too. You can also make this with just root vegetables, like pumpkins, cassava, carrots, sweet potatoes, and turnips. Original recipe from Senegalese chef Pierre Thiam via Food & Wine calls for a mixture of root vegetables and cabbage, I just used cauliflowers to make it low-carb friendly. However, the stew is highly customizable, use other vegetables and protein you personally enjoy.
Chicken au Poivre

This playful and elegant take on French bistro classic steak au poivre features bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs that are pan-fried until golden then simmered in a peppery pan sauce until tender and juicy. Cognac is a vital flavour component in au poivre to create a rich, complex, and velvety pan sauce. If you don’t want to use alcohol, just use more chicken broth with a splash of Worcestershire sauce instead. Crème fraîche and Dijon mustard add a lush creaminess and tang that temper the heat of the peppercorns. If crème fraîche isn’t at hand, use full fat sour cream or heavy cream and finish with a squeeze of lemon juice or splash of sherry vinegar.
