I’m calling these Mexican potato fritters (or pancakes!) Because that’s the idea they’re based on. Masa Harina meets potato for a perfect crispy potato fritter.
Mexican Potato Fritters
Crispy Roast Chicken with Chat Potatoes and Fennel
This easy one pan dish is a dream to throw together and you end up with crispy skinned, juicy chicken pieces, melt in your mouth fennel, flavoursome potatoes and a yummy pan sauce.
Maple Mustard Chicken Skewers with Avocado and Mint Sauce
Last lockdown I was really into cooking complicated stuff from scratch just to keep myself entertained. This lockdown feels different. I just want simple and delicious things to eat for dinner that are quick to make. These skewers fit that description to a tee. The flavour is so addictive, the perfect balance of sweet, salty, sour, and a little hit of bitter from the mustard powder.
Oven Baked Spiced Rainbow Trout With Loaded Yoghurt
The spices on this side of rainbow trout are so delicious and warming. The perfect flavours to accompany the yoghurt sauce that’s basically a salad. You could use any small – medium sized fish filleted in this style, or a tail of salmon would be ideal too.
Crispy Cauliflower And Chickpea Tacos
The texture of these tacos is insane! So crispy and delicious. The chickpeas also make them super filling which is always a win. And the spice mix? That brings a world of flavour to these tacos!
Easy Roast Tomato and Capsicum Soup
This is the perfect thing to make at the end of summer. Make as much as you can be bothered to make and freeze it, for those colder days. Heating up your frozen stash will take you right back to the scent and flavour of summer.
Grilled Pork and Coconut Rice Salad Bowls
So this is basically an inauthentic riff on a bun bowl, but with coconut rice. It’s simple, delicious and the marinade can be used on chicken thighs or skirt steak too. This is a classic warm night meal in our house, we cook the pork on the bbq and nothing else requires heat so the house doesn’t get hot, perfection!
Lentil Salad with Baked Feta and Tomato
After watching so many people make the viral baked feta and tomato dish that Liemessa started making, I knew that this was one food trend I wanted to get involved in. I mean I love pasta so why not?! But it’s summer and I also love salad, and I’ve been weirdly craving lentils. So this happened instead. All the flavours of that pasta but in a lentil salad. It’s so good. I still love the pasta version too though!
Crispy Tofu and Golden Vermicelli Noodle Soup
This is so simple to make and so delicious. The vibrant soup is the perfect thing to go with the crispy tofu, and the slippery vermicelli noodles soak up all that flavour.
