I serve this as a side with all cuisines. Yes, even Asian food – read on! Sautéed Green Beans with Garlic I have a surprising number of recipes starring green beans on this website. From sides to mains (Sichuan Green Beans with Pork, anyone??), it turns out that green beans may just be my favourite vegetable. Second perhaps only to potato which, as my mother would quickly point out, doesn’t have great nutritional value and thus qualify as a vegetable whose vast intake you ought to boast about....

This is a cookbook exclusive recipe! This recipe is exclusive to my debut cookbook Dinner which includes a how-to video for every recipe. Just scan the QR code! Oops! Forgot to turn the cauliflower partway through baking. Please follow the steps in the cookbook recipe!! Just to explain…. I know, it’s confusing! You’re so used to getting recipes on my website – there’s over 1,200 of them, after all. And here you are looking at a tasty recipe video and I haven’t provided the recipe....

“This is one of those dinners I pulled together when my refrigerator was dismally empty.” I’m more of a white meat girl than a steak girl. So on the rare occasions that I cook steak, I feel like I can justify investing in a good cut so I splurged on a great piece of sirloin – about 2.5 cm / 1 inch. I hadn’t actually planned to make steak for dinner....

Spinach and Ricotta Rotolo I’m going to call it – this will be the best new thing you’ve made all year. The rich tomato sauce. The creamy spinach and ricotta filling spiked with parmesan and nutmeg. Golden brown bubbly cheese. And the brown crunchy bits, the crowning glory. How inappropriate would it be to pick off all the crunchy bits before it gets to the table? 😂 What is Rotolo?...

As with ribs, there’s no way to look elegant when you annihilate a plate of wings. And we wouldn’t have it any other way! Sticky Chinese Chicken Wings These Sticky Chinese Chicken Wings are so moorish, once you start you won’t be able to stop! This is my family recipe for Sticky Chinese Chicken Wings which has been tweaked and perfected over years, with input from everyone (mother, brother, sister and me) and many heated debates!...

This is how to make sweetened condensed milk caramel: Place sealed cans of sweetened condensed milk in slow cooker, fill slow cooker with water, slow cook on low for 8 hours. Output: Perfectly smooth, no stir, thick, deep flavoured caramel sauce. It’s incredible! Sweetened Condensed Milk Caramel “This keeps for a month in the fridge. But it won’t last that long.” Dulce De Leche. Smooth, rich and thick with a deep caramel flavor, this South American export is the king of all caramels....

Don’t skip the toppings. They seal the deal. 🙂 Taco Soup Even if you’ve never had Taco Soup before, if you enjoy Chili and Tacos, I guarantee that you will absolutely LOVE this. Basically, it’s everything you know and love about beef tacos, toppings and all, except it’s in soup form. It’s kind of like Chili – thick and hearty with a fragrant broth that’s quite heavily flavoured with spices....

This is one of those hidden gems that will please just about everyone. It’s meat-free, gluten-free, low-carb, low calorie, extremely filling AND tasty. Wait – it’s even vegan. Yay vegans! Vegetable Tagine Last week, I asked readers what type of recipes they’d like to see more of on RecipeTin Eats this year. The themes in demand were clear: More meat-free, more low calorie, more low-carb. BUT still insanely tasty of course!...

Chicken Tetrazzini I call Tetrazzini an Italian pasta bake just because it sounds good to say so, but in actual fact, there is nothing Italian about this creamy-oh-so-cheesy pasta casserole other than the fact that it’s named after an Italian opera singer, Luisa Tetrazzini. It is said that a Chef at a hotel in the States invented this dish especially for her, and you’ll never find it in a (real) Italian cookbook....

Cowboy Rice Salad The words “rice” and “salad” do not come naturally for people of Asian background. Rice is to Asians what bread is to Western countries. Growing up, we rarely had bread. In fact, when I visit relatives in Japan, the only reason they would buy bread is for us, thinking that we’ve been so westernised that we must have our bread fix, that rice is not enough! For clarity, that’s not true....

This recipe is similar to Honey Pepper Beef Stir Fry – with the addition of the crispy beef! Mongolian Beef I cannot get enough of this Mongolian Beef. I am obsessed! PF Chang’s is an Asian themed restaurant chain in the US. They seem to be everywhere – and it’s wildly popular. Because of its sheer popularity, I had to try it when I was in the US. I actually didn’t mind the Chow Mein that my friend got, but personally I found the Mongolian Beef too sweet and too oily....

Simple to make, they reheat 100% perfectly – but the best part is smugly telling your friends “they’re French, darling” (I hear this in a posh British accent😂). Gougeres recipe – French Cheese Puffs! This Gougeres recipe comes to you via the hostess of a charming bed & breakfast called La Saura in Burgundy, France. We had a week long stay there just a couple of months ago, using it as our home base to explore the region....

A sensational share platter meal option for gatherings – the Greek way! After more ideas? Browse all my roast lamb recipes! Greek Butterflied Lamb Leg Butterflied lamb leg is simply a leg of lamb with the bone removed so the meat lies flat and is relatively uniform in thickness. This means the lamb cooks faster than a traditional whole roast leg, as well as opening the leg up to all sorts of flavour possibilities....

These British baked beans can be made with dried or canned beans. Quick and easy, very economical and utterly addictive! Heinz baked beans recipe So there’s no misunderstanding, let me explain upfront that this recipe is for British style baked beans which comes in a semi-clear tomato sauce and is traditionally served for breakfast. It’s completely different to Southern Baked Beans which is a Southern food staple and comes with a darker, more intense flavoured sweet/savoury sauce....

Made with chickpeas, tahini, lemon, olive oil and garlic, it’s a great standby pantry dip for unexpected guests or midnight munchies! Creamy and smooth, it’s completely incomparable to the thick, sour store bought hummus. Hummus recipe Whenever I’m planning gatherings, I like to keep the stress levels down by using a combination of some store bought things and some homemade things for pre dinner nibble platters. I buy cured meats, olives and crackers (though these homemade gourmet crackers are in high demand in my circles)....

While most recipes are made using fresh jalapeños, I make mine with canned because I find that the slight tang of pickled jalapeños is perfect to cut through the richness of the creamy dip. Serving it in a bread bowl is optional. Skip it if you want to avoid a brawl when everyone fights over who gets the dip soaked crust – arguably the BEST part!! Jalapeno Popper Dip My very favourite recipes are those with Food Memories, and this one is my latest and greatest one, concocted after my last trip to the States last month....

** Follow the Roast Beef Cut guide below to determine which cuts are best for marinating** Marinated Roast Beef This is a recipe that was born during the days when I was a poverty stricken uni student who refused to live on packet ramen day after day. I wanted roast beef and gravy, damn it! But of course, my budget would never stretch to Prime Rib, so I’d purchase the best value roast beef cuts I could find then end up chewing my way through dry, tasteless roast beef....
