Black Lime Salmon • Lettuce with pine nut vinaigrette. Both recipes from Ottolenghi Simple Too.

The salmon recipe follows a very simple straightforward method. Black limes, cumin, brown sugar and paprika are ground together, mixed with olive oil creating a slurry, smeared onto the fillets and into the oven for 10 minutes at max heat. Removed, dressed with sour cream and seasoned grated tomatoes.

The salad with pine nut vinaigrette reads like any other. Oil, lemon juice, shallots, dijon and honey. The one ingredient which differentiates this from the ordinary is toasted and chopped pine nuts. It adds a unique nutty and buttery flavour which is uniquely delicious and far from the ordinary.

One of the best meals we’ve had in a while. by @sunilskitchen

Hi, I'm Dylan. I'm a 10 year old Golden Retriever living in Delhi. I have a sore tooth and today I had to go to the doctor. I was so scared that she would hurt me. But luckily they said they don't have to pull my tooth right now.

Mom, dad and Shravan bhaiya took me for ice cream at #narulasicecream Galleria Market afterwards, so that made it all better.

My wife Georgie and son Uno were so jealous, because they got no ice cream hahahaha...

A spot of low-carb cooking.

Levantine chicken kebabs, marinated with baharat, biber salçası, garlic and yogurt, grilled until charred yet juicy.

The low-carb flatbreads are from a brilliant recipe by @chefkla made with grated carrots, cheddar, egg and seasonings. Crisp at the edges, savoury and surprisingly satisfying. The best part, they don’t crack or break while making wraps.

A bowl of cool, creamy tzatziki completed a healthy, nutritious and delicious meal.

Here’s another Simple one from Simple too, pun intended 😛Spatchcocked chicken, Chinese cabbage and Soy Butter.

Chicken seasoned with salt and white pepper and plonked over a bed of quartered Chinese cabbage, scallions, stock, plenty of ginger and whole garlic. Roasted for half an hour before adding a generous amount of butter and soy sauce.

I cook plenty of veggies while roasting chicken, simply adding chopped up veggies towards the latter half of roasting. This recipe takes a similar approach with the addition of providing an umami laden sauce. My only deviation from the recipe was to dry brine the chicken for 24 hours which helped provide a lovely crisp skin.

Very simple. Very good. by @sunilskitchen

Huli Huli Chicken • Warm Potato Salad.

Hankering for something new, I came across this recipe in “Cook Real Hawai’i” by Sheldon Simeon. He explains Huli means turn in Hawaiian, a reference to rotating grills used to cook rotisserie style chicken.

The similarity with rotisserie chicken ends with Huli. I marinated a spatchcocked chicken overnight in soy, white wine, ginger, garlic and pineapple juice.

To make a glaze, cooked down some reserved marinade with more pineapple juice, ginger, garlic and Worcestershire sauce.

Grilled the chicken oven a hot bed of coals, basting with the glaze in the last few minutes.

For sides, a warm potato salad using parboiled potatoes finished on the braai with rosemary and garlic and dressed with mustard, honey and chives before serving.

Quite an excellent meal, if I may say so myself 😋

Possibly the simplest chicken that I’ve cooked and no surprises, a recipe from #simpletoo by @ottolenghi

Chicken legs, za’atar, yogurt, salt and pepper. In the oven for 50 minutes. Done. The reward is crispy skin, moist chicken and moreish rustic flavours. Served with a side of butter and orange glazed carrots.

A very simple and delicious meal with the added reward of plenty of schmaltz, flecked with milk solids from the yogurt, which I saved for oven roasted potatoes on the weekend.

When life gives you lemons…oops I meant when your neighbour and braai buddy gifts you a few kilos of organically grown bell peppers, you cook pork chops and more….

As the peppers were a bit soft post their travel from the Sitla hills, I roasted the entire lot. While they enjoyed their sauna in the oven, I picked a couple of old favourite recipes from two books that have been in my kitchen library for years.

A Romesco sauce from Kitchen Notebook by Rachel Khoo and Pimientos Asados from Tapas by Oman Allibhoy. To compliment these flavours, a pork chop seasoned with smoked paprika and cumin.

Romesco is a great sauce which, traditionally, goes really well with charred leeks. Easily done by blending charred peppers with toasted almonds, garlic, smoked paprika, sherry vinegar, olive oil and seasoning.

For the pimientos asados, plenty of sliced garlic added to a cold pan with olive oil and gently brought to heat. Sliced roasted peppers follow and the dish is finished with sherry vinegar and a dash to sugar to balance all the flavours.

A simple yet great meal and one that reaffirms the fact that great produce provides great food. I had plenty of leftovers which I portioned and vac-packed, ready for use on a no cook day.

This has become my favourite way to cook salmon.

Seasoned with salt and pepper, into a 220C oven for 10 minutes before removing and slathering a mayo, Dijon, lemon and finely chopped tarragon sauce. Back into the oven for 3-4 minutes and served with a side of greens.

So simple and so good.

I’ve eaten satay many times but never grilled it at home, so this was a first. I cut chicken thighs into thin strips and marinated them in a mild spice mix of coriander, cumin, white pepper and cinnamon. To this, coconut milk and tamarind paste.

For the sauce, coarsely ground roasted peanuts, red curry paste, tamarind, palm sugar and coconut milk, all cooked together till the oil separated and the sauce thick and chunky.

With the prep out of the way, the chicken skewers went onto the grill and cooked hot and fast, under 5 minutes.

The verdict? The chicken on its own was subtly spiced with the coconut milk providing a lovely creamy flavour and texture, punctuated by the char created by the fire. The sweet, savoury, nutty, tangy sauce was finger licking good but paired with the chicken, a total winner.

This one goes into the must repeat category.
