Whether you’re a kid, or just a kid at heart, you’ll love this smokey mac and cheese recipe. It combines just the right amount of spice with a delicious, creamy cheese sauce and crispy textures, to create the ultimate comfort food. Perfect for a lazy afternoon or weekday dinner, this is a dish will definitely leave a smile on your face.
Sticky Sesame Cauliflower Wings
We’ve been enjoying a dish very similar to this one at the very popular Pure Kitchen restaurant here in Ottawa for the past couple of years and have been trying out different ways to recreate it. We tried deep frying, sauteing, and even an air fryer method, but none of our attemps came close to the crunchy cauliflower we were trying to achieve. Usually, everything just ended up as mush, or the sauce wouldn’t stick because the breading was wrong. This needed to be rectified!
Parmesan Truffle Fries
It’s quite possible that these Truffle Parmesan Fries will leave you saying “these are the best fries I’ve every had!”. I’ve actually heard that comment a few times, and I wholeheartedly agree. First, I love Parmesan cheese; second, I love truffles; and third I love french fries – so this is a match made in heaven. They are light, crispy, and full of outstanding flavours. Eat them alone as a snack, or pair them with a more sophisticated Steak Frites dish. You’ll love them!
Mushroom and Mozzarella Arancini
This arancini recipe takes all the flavour and goodness that you get from a risotto and adds flavour and texture by adding in creamy mozzarella, all surrounded by a crispy crust. Served with our Roasted Garlic Tomato Sauce it makes a perfect appetizer for a formal dinner or addition to a charcuterie board. It’s even hearty to stand alone as a fully vegetarian main course.
Sticky Pork Belly Bites
The dish provides an excellent balance between sweet, salty, and spicy and literally melts in your mouth. The addition of cucumber and carrot adds flavour and a pleasant crunch, and helps to cut down the spiciness.
Loaded Fire Roasted Red Pepper Hummus
If you love hummus (or even if you don’t), you have to try this recipe. Packed with flavour and just the right amount of spice, this dish is the perfect as a afternoon snack or centrepiece to your favourite charcuterie board. Topped with fresh ingredients, this dish provides a delightful balance of creaminess and crunch. Serve with fresh bread or pita, crostini, or fresh veggies.
Sous Vide Pickles
For typical pickles you’d be looking at a marinating period of 4-5 weeks. With the sous vide method, we’re talking 4-5 hours. Incredible! And the end result is as crunchy and flavourful as the ones you’d need to wait for. And maybe the best part is that you can add whatever spice blend you like. For these pickles I’ve gone with a more traditional blend of garlic and dill, but feel free to experiment. I can assure you that the results will the delicious.
Hoisin Sauce
This is another one of those recipes that may cause you to re-think ever using store-bought Hoisin sauce again. This sauce is incredibly flavourful and full of natural, fresh ingredients that will make your dishes shine. It can be served alone as a dip or a side, or be used as a main ingredient in other dishes – as we have done with our Sticky Pork Belly appetizer.
Chimichurri Verde
This Chimichurri Verde is a fresh, delicious, and healthy sauce that pairs well with a variety of dishes, but is best known as a steak sauce.
Chicken Parmigiana
There’s no other way to put it – this recipe is a comfort food classic! Built a top a crispy, juicy chicken breast and topped with zesty tomato sauce and gooey mozzarella cheese you can’t help but fall in love with this dish. It’s simple, yet surprisingly elegant, and works perfectly as either a casual weekday main course or formal dinner party star.
