The benefits to living a small town are numerous: wide open spaces, familiar faces wherever you go, minimal traffic… But a glaring downside where I live is not having good Chinese takeout options within a 45 minute drive. And sometimes, I just want Chinese food NOW. One of my favorite Chinese restaurant recipes is sesame chicken. It’s sticky, salty, sweet, crunchy, and absolutely addictive. Usually, sesame chicken is deep fried, then coated in a sweet, soy sauce and sesame oil based sauce....

Boneless, skinless chicken breasts are cut in half horizontally to make thinner pieces before being coated in a simple marinade that happens to transform into the most amazing, garlicky sauce once it’s baked.

The key is ensuring the oven is preheated well before cooking the chicken....

PS: YOU MAY ALSO WANT TO CHECK OUT OUR NEW, IMPROVED BEET WELLINGTON RECIPE HERE. ‘But what are you going to make at Christmas?’ is a question I have heard a lot ever since I went vegan. An average person has trouble imagining a big family gathering – like Christmas or Thanksgiving – without a meat centrepiece. I totally get that, even though I no longer eat meat. When my next door neighbours are making a roast chicken for a Sunday dinner, it still smells nice to me and brings back the memories of family meals…I mean, it’s impossible to completely erase a lifetime of food memories just because your meat eating blinkers have finally come off....

Boston Brown Bread is probably the easiest (and cheapest!) bread you’ll ever make. It’s a no-knead, yeast-free quick bread, everything is mixed up in one bowl for easy clean-up, and it’s healthy and nutritious.

Many people have an issue with a soup that is served cold. I guess people from the colder climes tend to associate a bowl of soup with comfort – it warms them up when the weather outside is vile. Comfort is a relative thing, though. When Greece puts on its stellar summer with relentless heat pouring from the sky day in, day out (and not an ounce of breeze), you are way past your comfort zone too....

WHAT IS RESHMI CHICKEN? Creamy Reshmi Chicken With Yogurt is a sumptuous curry recipe. It has been originated in India and made its way to Pakistan. It’s more popular in Pakistani restaurants. India/Pakistani recipes like Mutton Karahi are quite opposite to the creamy ones like Reshmi Chicken. It’s a creamy curry thanks to the yogurt and the cashews. I know many people use the help of cheese to make it creamy but authentic way ingredients are yogurt and cashews....

I love a good potato wedge, but they have to be done right. Too often, potato wedges are served undercooked and firm on the inside (too… “potatoey”), soggy on the outside, and underseasoned. No more, I say! Down with bad potato wedges! THESE potato wedges are oven-baked so they are crispy on the outside and pillowy soft on the inside. Not only are they delicious and addicting with ample seasoning, but they are so inexpensive to make with only THREE ingredients, and so hearty and filling!...
