And while not identical to the real thing, it’s close enough, so there’s no need to feel deprived. Much like cauliflower, I find that spaghetti squash is a lifesaver when you crave certain comfort foods. So while cauliflower is the perfect substitute for rice, spaghetti squash is a wonderful replacement for noodles. This dish is so rich and comforting, I truly don’t miss the real thing when I make it....
I don’t really remember cakes featuring heavily. There was the annual homemade Christmas cake of course, and some special occasions called for a trifle with a Cadbury flake sprinkled on top, but for the most part we were quite a savoury family. I think my mum still scratches her head and wonders how that led to my sister becoming an awesome cake maker, and me spending a little too much of my time creating and writing about chocolatey, sticky, cakey things....

We love nothing more than a good Indian feast! Tikka Masala and naan and butter chicken, yum! The only appropriate drink to go with an Indian feast is a lassi. Why waste your money washing Indian food down with a soda? A lassi is simply a yogurt based drink that originated in India. Sweet lassis are a blend of yogurt fruit, and sugar. It’s an Indian smoothie! Our favorites are strawberry and mango flavored lassis....
Takeout Beef and Broccoli is not an authentic Chinese recipe, but rather a typical American version of Chinese-American takeout restaurants. The Stay At Home Chef uses ingredients that are easily accessible for most people in the United States and Canada so that anyone can easily celebrate world cuisines even if their opportunities for travel or access to regional ingredients are limited. Marinade: The marinade is the key to perfectly tender and flavorful beef....
I love fried calamari, but you know what? After this tempura, I’m not going back. This is just too good. Eat the whole batch good. And oddly enough, it’s light, or at least a lot lighter than the heavy cornmeal coating you usually find on its Italian cousin. Tempura is a Japanese preparation of batter-dipped, deep fried foods, usually vegetables and seafood. Apparently the method was introduced to Japan by the Portuguese in the 1500s....

A humble piece of toast can make other humble foods feel like a satisfying meal, from beans to a poached egg to a kale salad. It transforms soup from a spartan situation to a cozy, delicious dinner. Or, if you’re making toast in the morning for breakfast, you’re probably making it before your coffee. And, we firmly believe no one should have to deal with a frustrating kitchen appliance pre-coffee....
This is actually one of Chris’s recipes. Have I mentioned before he’s a cook too? I’m a lucky girl. 🥰 His Chilli Con Carne is always on recipe rotation, we must have it at least once every 2 weeks and I LOVE the Sesame Prawn Toast he makes too. So onto his delicious apple crumble recipe. The cooking apples will break down more during the cooking process and the eating apples will retain a bit more texture giving the perfect apple sauce center to the crumble....
What defines the perfect baked potato? For me it’s: Crispy, crunchy skin, that stays crisp (and doesn’t turn chewy after 5 minutes out of the oven).Tasty skin - the skin is JUST as important as the interior. It’s not something to be left behind on the plate.Fluffy, tender interior - goes without saying. I want the perfect texture to mash my salted butter into.Timing also has a small part to play....
You know when you go to a restaurant for a sunday dinner, how disappointing is it when the roasties aren’t crispy! They’re just a bit browned and chewy at the edges, instead of having that satisfying crunch. So disappointing!! Nope, give me homemade roasties any time. I want that crunchy exterior you can only get from fluffing up those edges and letting them bubble away in hot fat, with a fluffy, light interior....
Either via a manual crank or an electric motor, these gadgets employ a hopper, auger, and blades to turn meat (and fish) from larger cuts into a fine or coarse grind. Many also have the capability to extrude ground meat into casings for sausages or kibbeh, such as our best over all pick the STX International Turboforce 3000 Series Electric Meat Grinder. We researched the features that carnivores crave including power, throughput, blades, accessories, and cleanup....
Refrigerators have also made a technological jump in the past few decades. You can now easily see inside your fridge without opening the door, have it tell you what part needs repair, or connect it to your smart home tech to mirror your TV and display who’s at the door. The refrigerator market is full of options, for the bustling large family to the apartment-dweller, from high tech to low....
Ingredient notes Oat flour – you can buy store bought oat flour. We love Bob’s Red Mill because they have certified gluten free oat flour. You can also make oat flour by processing rolled oats in a blender or food processor until it reaches a fine flour texture. Dairy free milk – I prefer to use almond milk or cashew milk, but coconut milk will work too. You can also use regular milk if you tolerate dairy....
What is it about pomegranates that just make a meal look so enticing? I think it’s because pomegranates = sophistication. They’re the culinary fruit equivalent of diamonds. I’ve been a bit obsessed with them recently - even adding them to my hot smoothies. My bottle of pomegranate molasses however, has - until now - sat in the cupboard, unopened, for about 2 years. I always meant to use it, along with the ras el hanout, the dusty jar of artichokes and that packet of strawberry Angel Delight (every adult in the UK ate this mousse-made-from-milk-and-powder throughout their childhood)....
Family gatherings such as the one we just had this Easter weekend are the perfect excuse for dad to do his thing, bake some over-the-top, takes-days-to-make, several-trips-to-the-store-for-forgotten-ingredients wondrous dessert! This triple-layer white cake with an orange curd filling is one of his favorite recipes (from Bon Appétit). It’s a little dense, but really good. You have to make the orange curd a day ahead of time, so factor that into your planning if you try it out....
This recipe is ready in less than 30 minutes, it’s very simple to make, and the sauce is wonderfully flavorful! This delicious stir-fry is one of my most requested leftover turkey recipes. All my family members love it! And I love the way leftover turkey forces me to be creative. Back when I didn’t mind bread, it was easy! Turkey salad, quesadillas, paninis, enchiladas, and even turkey pizza were the obvious solution....
Can I use a taco seasoning packet? Yes! Rather than using the spices called for, you can save some time and simply use 1 taco seasoning packet. Optional Add Ins: We love 7 layer dip as is, but you can add even more to it! Chopped cilantro, green chiles, and jalapeños are all great additions. Guacamole: You can use either store-bought or homemade guacamole in this recipe. Dairy Free Options: You can make 7 layer dip completely dairy-free by substituting with your favorite plant-based sour cream and shredded cheese....
Seriously, butter, cheese, cream. What’s not to love? Baked until golden brown and bubbly, this makes a lovely side dish for prime rib, ham, or other holiday roast. Not Traditional but Utterly Delicious I break from tradition a bit with this gratin, but the flavors work together beautifully. If you’re craving something new, interesting and delicious this is the recipe for you! Potatoes are probably the most familiar vegetable used in gratins, but for this, I lean into the root veggie’s sweet and earthy cousins: carrots and parsnips....
