A version of chilli con carne using pork from Yotam Ottolenghi. You can reduce the amount of jalapeno chillies to make it child friendly if you need to.
I am just back from a three week holiday in Sicily, where my vegetarian husband often had little choice other than pasta with tomatoes or this local favourite which originates from Catania. . This very good version of Pasta Alla Norma is from ” Simple” by Yotam Ottolenghi . The aubergines are cooked in the oven which I find far less time consuming than frying in batches.
These Cheesy Curried Beans from Yotam Ottolenghi make a quick and easy brunch, lunch or supper . They arebest made with jarred beans but you can also use a tin. A 400g tin gives about 300g beans, so I increase the cream and cheese to take this into account. You could add extra spicing if you like.
A warming, hearty and seasonal gratin from Yotam Ottolenghi. You can vary the vegetables using the same total weight, but these work very well together. Cut the vegetables into 2mm thick slices, using a mandolin if you need to.
This is Yotam Ottolenghi’s version of this classic chicken dish from ” Simple”. Its very easy to prepare but the chicken needs to be marinaded at least one day in advance and preferably two.
I’m a huge fan of Gorgonzola cheese so this recipe is a winner for me. It’s from ” Plenty” by Yotam Ottolenghi. Serve at room temperature on its own or with steamed greens such as purple sprouting broccoli or kale.
A festive dish from ” Flavour” by Yotam Ottolenghi and Ixta Belfrage. You can prepare the shallots, garlic, chestnuts and grapes the day before and refrigerate overnight, but only cook the sprouts on the day you are serving the dish.
