Beef Bun Cha

Beef Bun Cha

The Vietnamese Buncha is originally made with pork. In our case, we’ve settled for beef, instead. The meat patties should be served on a bed of rice vermicelli noodles, although you could use wheat noodles, too. We’ve enhanced the whole combo with a lemony hot sauce. Feel free to garnish everything with thinly sliced raw veggies and sesame seeds.

Thai Sea Bass in Spicy Sauce

Thai Sea Bass in Spicy Sauce

If you’re in a mood for Asian flavors, this Thai sea bass may just do the trick. It’s a 35-minute job where you grill (we used a grill pan, by the way) the fish, then bake it in a hot aromatic sauce. The latter one is as rich as the Asian cuisine: coconut milk, star anise, ginger, and cinnamon, to name just a few.

Chickpea Waffles

Chickpea Waffles

Savory waffles are gaining ground in popularity even as we speak, so why not try some? In this case, we used canned chickpeas as the main ingredient and we generously flavored the mixture with coriander, parsley, and garlic. Serve them topped with whatever pleases you or eat them as such. Brunch, lunch, or dinner.

Chicken Pita Wraps

Chicken Pita Wraps

Try your hand with these yummy hot pita wraps. They are mildly crunchy and creamy at the same time because we filled them with a tender chicken breast mixture and with raw cabbage and pickles at the same time. By the way, you can use tortilla instead of pita, if you want.

Hot Mexican Pizza

Hot Mexican Pizza

Was this inspired to us by Italian cuisine or is it from Mexico? We don’t know for sure. What we know is this: it’s hot, it has Tex-Mex stuff in it, and you should eat it with your friends. Serve it with a refreshing white sauce or, simply, with yogurt.

Langoustines with Tomato Sauce

Langoustines With Tomato Sauce

North Italian cuisine was our muse when it comes to this recipe. You’ll want to generously add canned tomatoes for the rich sauce that makes this food so scrumptious. Complete the sauce with white wine, olive oil, and breadcrumb. Serve this with a lot of bread because you don’t want to leave the sauce on the plate.

Cheddar-Stuffed Lamb Meatballs

Cheddar-Stuffed Lamb Meatballs

If you want to make a splash with your lamb meatballs you must carefully spice the mince. We did that by making them hot and by tossing coriander, rosemary, and cumin into the mixture. Further flavoring them with Worcestershire sauce and parsley takes this to the next step. And if you’re looking for a show-stopper, stuff the balls with Cheddar and serve them with a refreshing mint-flavored white dip.
