Potato and Onion Soup

Potato and Onion Soup... because it's cold outside! [caption id="attachment_3619" align="alignright" width="300" caption="Potato and Onion Soup"][/caption] It's really cold outside and I've got my hands all freezed up which I hate. I am more of a summer lover and it is not that normal that in Malta we have cold winters and really windy days. But this is what we are getting :( Well, for this reason I had to create a nice hot soup. It is named 'the poor soup' as it is one of the cheapest recipes with the cheapest ingredients you'll find at your market; potatoes and onions. The Potato ...

Broccoli and Brie Filo Pastry Pie

Broccoli and Brie Filo Pastry Pie... smooth inside and crispy on the outside! I love filo pastry and it has been a while since I've really created something with it in the kitchen.

Potato and Sausage Cake

Potato and Sausage Cake... to served with your lovely festive dinner!

I have always wanted to create something different with mashed potatoes to serve, and I thought ...

Mustard Saffron Yoghurt Rice

Mustard Saffron Yoghurt Rice... for a quick & unusual lunch! I have pictured this recipe a day ago as I was organizing my spice rack in the kitchen and a full saffron powder tub was there staring at me :). So I was eager to use it for lunch today and the Mustard Saffron Yoghurt Rice was created. The use of english mustard to this recipe gave it a nice touch and to finish with natural white yoghurt just tick all boxes for a nice healthy dish. I used long grain rice for this recipe but one can also use arborio rice ...
