Caramelised Onion Flatbread / Sweet Potato Hash with Chorizo & Fried Eggs / Spiced Pickled Cherries



Blog Post & Recipe: De Scott Evans-Caramelized Onion Flatbread


Slowly caramelizing onions is a satisfactory substitute to soup-making; it is a long process that continues to warm the kitchen during the last of the chilly days.


Blog Post & Recipe: Sweet potato hash with chorizo and fried eggs


Peel and cube the sweet potatoes into 1cm chunks. Fry in a pan over a medium heat in olive oil until golden on all sides. Add the spices, stirring to combine. Cook for a couple of minutes more.


Recipe: Spiced Pickled Cherries


While they are delicious and I look forward to experimenting with them, I have so many (filled) jars in my canning cabinet it is a little scary. This way I feel no guilt trying to pickle another fruit. Plus it was a super quick canning project, from start to finish, it only took about 20 minutes.

Blog Post & Recipe: So many things: P2P, life and an Egg and Grilled Tomato Sandwich With Fresh Herbs


Now assemble the sandwich: first you put the tomato slices on the bread, if there are any juices, drizzle these on the bread before putting the tomato on it. Salt it. Then you put the egg on that and finish with adding a little salt and drizzling the herb oil over it all.


Blog Post & Recipe: Ricotta Millet Pudding


This deliciously creamy dessert references familiar dishes like rice pudding and coeur a la creme but manages to also maintain a unique identity. It is fresh, creamy, lemony, and perfect for spring. The warm raspberry sauce poured over the cold pudding is absolutely delightful.

Sour Cherry Slab Pie. Sambal Belacan. Pad Thai.



Blog Post & Recipe: sour cherry slab pie


... not two minutes after I discovered the existence of slab pie, I was fixing to make it. Why? Because it looks like a giant Pop Tart, and surely you don’t think a woman in her third trimester needs a single other reason to bake something.


Blog Post & Recipe: Sambal Belacan


I thought I would show you how to make sambal belacan from scratch–a must-have Malaysian condiment and the basic building block for many delicious Malaysian recipes.

Sambal belacan consists of chilies, belacan (Malaysian shrimp paste), kalamansi lime (limau kasturi), and salt and sugar (to taste or optional). In the US, kalamansi lime is scarce so lime can be used as a substitute.


Blog Post & Recipe: The Bookmark Project: Pad Thai at Last


Once in a while, I come upon a food blog post that I immediately recognize as a precious gift from the blogger to us readers. Pim's Pad Thai for beginners was one such post. [...] I highly recommend reading her post carefully to learn some important tips and techniques in the making of this dish in an authentic way. The following recipe simply tells you the way I made Pad Thai on Sunday night.
