Potatoes with Cebolada (Portuguese Spicy Onion Sauce) are not your average boiled potatoes by any means. These potatoes pair perfectly with grilled or fried fish (click here). This recipe is versatile so you control the spice level, by increasing or decreasing how much pimenta moida (hot pepper paste) you use. Once the onion, garlic and hot pepper paste is sautéed in the olive oil and then topped up with the white wine, it creates a delicious spicy onion sauce. Then the sauce is poured onto the potatoes that immediately absorb all the delicious flavors. Just like that, the once bland boiled potatoes are now packed with flavor! They are even more delicious the next day….if there are any leftovers that is.
Broa is not your ordinary cornbread; amazing with soup, this Portuguese yeast bread bakes to crusty perfection thanks to a little steaming action in the oven.
Genovese sauce is another Italian classic out of Naples. Lots of onions and chuck roast are cooked down for hours with a splash of wine and a soffritto. You wind up with a slightly sweet and rich onion sauce with fall apart beef. As it's name suggests Genovese sauce is traditionally served over a large cylindrical pasta such as Rigatoni alla Genovese.

Recipe video above. Ratatouille is a French vegetable stew that at first glance seems like a humble dish – because it is. Made well though, it's a summery stunner bursting with the sunny tastes of the Mediterranean! The key to flavour-packed ratatouille is to sauté each vegetable separately before braising everything together. Ratatouille can comfortably star as a vegetarian main, otherwise it makes a perfect vegetable side.Makes side for 6 to 8 people, main meal for 4 people.

It's the right time of year for stuffed tomatoes and peppers. I'm not lucky with growing peppers so I have to buy them, but the garden is giving me lots of big juicy tomatoes. You'll need: 5 large tomatoes, reserve pulp 3 green peppers 2 tbsps olive oil 1 medium onion, grated 1 small carrot, grated 1 lb ground trio (beef, veal & pork) 2 garlic cloves, minced 1 1/4 cup brown rice 3/4 cup water Salt and pepper Pinch of sugar Some fresh chopped parsley Zest and juice of 1/2 lemon Some sliced black olives (optional) 1 1/2 cups tomato purée (or tomato sauce) 1/4 cup olive oil 1/2 cup water 1/4 (another) cup water 6 - 7 small potatoes, quartered Cut the tops off the peppers and tomatoes keeping their hats. Scoop out the tomato pulp and purée in a food processor. Set aside. Heat 2 tbsps olive oil in a large saucepan. Add grated onion and cook 2-3 minutes then add grated carrot and cook another couple minutes. Add ground meat (you can choose to use only beef but I prefer the trio). Cook meat just until no longer pink. Add the puréed tomato pulp. Add the rice, 3/4 cup water, sugar, salt and pepper, parsley, lemon zest and juice, and if using, black olives. Bring to boil then reduce heat and simmer 10-15 minutes. Fill veggies about 3/4 full (I may have overfilled mine, oops) and set them topped with their hats in a large baking pan. You may still have more filling depending on the size of the tomatoes and peppers you are using. If so just hollow out more veggies to stuff or you can simply eat the rice and meat as is. Place the potato halves between the tomatoes and peppers. Mix 1 1/2 cups tomato purée, 1/4 cup olive oil and 1/2 cup water and pour around the tomatoes and peppers and over the potatoes. Pour an additional 1/4 cup water between veggies. Bake in a 400 F oven for 1 - 1 1/4 hours basting occasionally. When basting if pan is getting dry, add a little more water. Only one baking dish used and dinner is served! Add some feta to the plate, which I forgot when taking this pic : (
