Potato Gratin

This recipe is slightly different to the traditional ones you’d find out there as I’ve used caramelised onions in it. But how can you not?! They add so much flavour!

Provençal Roasted Lamb

I don’t usually cook or eat large portions of meat like this and I was nervous to even try, but this turned out great (if I may say so myself!) and I’m definitely keeping this in my arsenal. This is super easy, I promise. I wouldn’t be doing it otherwise!

Gratin De Crepes (Stuffed Baked Crepes)

This was one of my favourite recipes made over the Circuit Breaker (read: lockdown) period. It requires at least 1 pot, 1 pan, and 1 baking dish (which is a lot for Ms One-Pot Meal here), but the recipe is simple, and the results are incredibly rewarding – so rewarding that it justifies all the dishes you whipped out.

Chickpea Stew

In a time like this, we are going for dishes that can be made with ingredients that are affordable and easy to stock up on. I’ve mostly gone for canned products here (chickpeas, chopped tomatoes, etc), so you can keep these in your kitchen cupboard on standby for whenever the cravings kick in.

Fruit Galette

A pastry that requires some time, but gives high returns! This is a pastry dough that requires a little more time and finesse than most, but I promise you it’s so good that you’d keep returning to it. It’s probably the best pastry I’ve ever made and it is worth every second of effort.
