Warm Salad Nicoise a Recipe from Provence

May 17, 2019

In Nice, where this main course salad gets its name no chef would ever dream of serving a Warm Salad Nicoise. However, in my part of Provence, the dish is perfect when the weather isn't. The ingredients (tuna, olives, eggs, peppers and anchovies) are the same as the traditional cold version of this salad

Eggplant Cakes with a Pesto Sauce to Start the Evening

May 8, 2019

They prepared several delicious dishes for the evening, but these Eggplant Cakes in a Tomato Pesto Sauce were my favourite. You can serve this recipe as an appetizer, the first course for a dinner party or even at lunchtime with a green salad. Think of this as a savoury cake. Once the eggplant is cooked, simply combine with the rest of the ingredients and bake. The dish can be served with the pesto sauce (below), a tomato sauce or combine the two for a rich flavour experience.

The pink colour for the waffles is healthy it comes from beets, which also adds a lovely, subtle flavour. Choose sandwich fillings to suit your tastes - vegetarian, meat lovers, grilled veggies, basil pesto, ricotta or goat cheese and few greens.

Wild Ramps: What Spring Ramp Dishes are You Making?

April 29, 2019

Ramp Pasta Made like Pate Nicoise: In Nice, they often make green gnocchi (Pate Nicoise) that simmers in the broth for the last 30 minutes. This year I tried something new, I made a classic Pate Nicoise (see recipe at the bottom), using wild ramps in place of the more traditional Swiss chard, and the results were stunning.
