I love Traditional Portuguese cuisine. It has such a variety of different dishes, and above all it makes use of many ingredients

Nectarine Cake with Orange Syrup

Increasingly I like dishes where the star is not the meat or fish.

Deviled Eggs

Blueberry and Apple Galette.

Verbene Tartlets! There is such a great variety of fruit available: blueberries, nectarines, plums, watermelon and melons.

In this recipe I wanted to make something very, very indulgent … This cake is all that: moist and full of chocolate

This is the perfect pancake to surprise that special someone, or for those sad winter mornings, or simply because you feel like it.

Puff Pastry and Parmesan Grissini. Finally some nice weather! Enough to lift our spirits.

Sunflower and Oregano Cracker

Cranberries, Raisins, and Port Wine Crown- And it’s 2015!

Sweet Potato and Almonds Tarts. I liked the result of an earlier recipe so much, that I also made these small tarts very similar.

Banana Bread – always works, plus it’s quick and easy to prepare

Roasted Chicken w/ Spiced Butter – The first time I used this kind of technique (here), I was so surprised with the results

Passion Fruit Vegan Panna Cotta- The last of the summer. Passion fruit is that kind of fruit that makes me smile.

Tosca Cake – Sometimes we walk around life kind of lost, looking for something we don’t even know.

Here’s one of those fantastic brownies, great for everyday. And why? Because it’s delicious and easy to make.

Chinese prawns with rice

Linguini with Ricotta and Butternut – something I don’t usually make here at home but I don’t know why! Pasta is my favorite food!

This Plum Crumble marks the official farewell to summer.

If you have a food processor, just put all the ingredients, no particular order, taking care to melt the butter.

For great lovers of robust breakfasts, this pancake is mandatory!
