This is your very super basic tomato soup. It’s earthy and comforting and warm. I’m always skeptical of vegan dishes but despite not having any dairy (yes, no butter or cream!) the texture of the soup is creamy and thick. I accidentally had a bit of a heavy hand on the red pepper flakes but when enjoyed with a crusty piece of bread the extra spice was just right.
This is a great lunch recipe. It’s quick, easy to make, you can add anything you like in to it and you can even make a few different flavors for different people (if you have fussy people in your house). I make mine with onion, peppers, and mushroom but feel free to use any of your favorite pizza toppings even pineapples and ham just make sure any meat you used it cooked and that any toppings are cut in to small pieces.
This dish takes time. It’s a labor of love and it’s worth making in bulk due to the large scale process. It can be frozen and it can also be halved if you’d just prefer to make less. Japanese curry is not hot like Indian or Thai curries and instead is made with a roux and has a thick, stew-like texture to it.
This is an easy and delicious recipe for a little something special to go with dinner. The taste is somewhat mild but it’s a nice, soft bread that is pretty addicting to eat.
Scotch eggs are British/Scottish/English pub food and they’re usually fried but since I’m not a big fan of fried food I went ahead and baked them instead. They’re actually fairly simple to make but they do make a bit of a clean up job since they need to be dipped in multiple things (plus there’s no way to make them except for sticking your hands in everything!).
Minestrone is glorified vegetable soup. It’s usually made with whatever is in season and often contains pasta or rice and always has beans in it. I’m not a really big of this soup in restaurants as it’s usually served very thin with a ton of pasta and not much in the way of vegetables and also usually has a beef base which I don’t like. I made mine with vegetable stock but feel free to make yours with chicken or beef if you have that instead. This recipe makes about 8 servings but could be easily scaled down.
A super simple way to make broccoli disappear in a matter of minutes. Creamy, rich, not all that good for you but delicious. I actually would use much less cheese and then taste and add as much as you need because I dumped it all in the first time and it was actually too cheesy I ended up putting in some stock to thin out the flavor.
This is a very mild but filling soup which comes out quite creamy. It’s the perfect compliment to a winter afternoon and keeps well in the freezer.
This is probably not super authentic but this is the vindaloo recipe my mother and I both use. It’s quick, delicious and can be as spicy as you want.
A fairly classic recipe presented very simply. Perfect on a cold day and comes together actually quite quickly for a soup. I like to flavor it with some of Penzey’s mural of flavor in addition to a bay leaf.
