Baby potatoes with peppers and onions
Ingredients
2 Tbsp olive oil
1 ½ pounds baby potatoes, cleaned and kept whole
1 cup diced red onion, ½”
1 cup poblano pepper, ½“
1 Tbsp Everyday Masala blend
2 Tbsp olive oil
1 tsp fine sea salt
Directions
In a large heavy bottom skillet (ideally with the potatoes in a single layer) heat 2 Tbsp of olive oil.
As 1 cup of water (the water should come halfway up the sides of the potatoes) and cover to simmer for 30 minutes or until potatoes are tender.
Remove the lid and with a clean, flat bottom glass, gently press each cooked potato to crack the skin.
Add the red onion, poblano peppers, Everyday Masala blend, the rest of the olive oil, and the salt and gently fold to combine well.
Cook covered for 10 more minutes or until the onions and peppers are tender and the potatoes have absorbed the spices and flavors.
Enjoy!
A thick, hearty broth for the autumnal, cooler days, that has become one of Israel’s most popular soups and heralded a national dish. Made from a plethora of orange-coloured vegetables including the seasonal pumpkin or squash, it is flavoured with fragrant herbs and warming spices to give a ray of sunshine in every mouthful.
My recipe for orange soup is delicious on its own, but even better with a swirl of cream, some sautéed chestnuts or toasted pumpkin seeds sprinkled on top, and always with a hunk of warm bread. This soup freezes well, but will keep fresh in the refrigerator for 5 days, if it lasts that long…
Known as the Italian macaron, the Ricciarelli is chewy on the inside and crisp on the outside, with a hint of rose water or almond essence for added flavour… this is the perfect Pesach biscuit, that can be served alongside the ubiquitous cinnamon ball with a cup of tea.
Chag Pesach Sameach!
A reimagining of hamantaschen, the hamantart is easy to make and has some fun twists, but still has the traditional poppyseed filling. A fun treat for Purim that is easy to make!
