Food I cook, repeat and pass on.

A nutty brown-butter crust filled with bright yuzu–lemon curd, dotted with smooth plum jam, and finished with fresh berries.

A fast, deeply satisfying pasta that works just as well with homemade or store-bought noodles, built on cheese, pepper, and good timing.

A flaky tomato galette layered with whipped feta, finished with orange-chili honey and a crunchy buckwheat “popcorn” topping.

Warm roasted sweet potato + lentils with crisp greens, citrus, and a bright strawberry–chili dressing. Finished with feta and pumpkin seeds.

Swedish-style meatballs with a creamy mustard pan sauce, velvet mash, quick pickles for crunch, and a bright blueberry-dill jam for a sweet-herby hit.

A crisp-edged, airy stuffed focaccia layered with jammy tomato confit, roasted strawberries, and melting stracciatella, finished with bright basil–lime oil.

A quick stuffed focaccia with sweet spring peas and a fresh, lemony, minty ricotta cream.

These handmade spinach ravioli are filled with creamy ricotta, fresh tomatoes, garlic and basil, then finished in nutty brown butter scented with rosemary. A small spoonful of caviar and freshly grated cheese turn a comforting pasta into something quietly luxurious.

Jammy tomato-pepper sofregit finished with romesco + sherry vinegar, baked eggs, crisp jamón, whipped allioli, parsley oil, and toasted almonds.

A fast, comforting tomato soup finished with creamy burrata and quinoa for body, balance, and an easy sense of indulgence.

Savory oats cooked with tomatoes, bacon, and cheese, finished with a sunny-side-up egg for a rich, comforting dish that works any time of day.

Velvety, boldly red, and ridiculously delicious — especially topped with rich cream cheese frosting, strawberries, edible flowers, and a tiny golden thingy (with a “healthier” option for the responsible among us).

These heart-shaped ravioli filled with sweet roasted pumpkin and parmesan are as delicious as they are beautiful. The bright red pasta dough, colored naturally with beet purée, makes them perfect for a special occasion. Topped with nutty brown butter and crispy sage, they're surprisingly approachable to make at home—and absolutely worth the effort.

Crispy, colorful latkes made from a mix of root vegetables. They’re lighter than all-potato latkes, but still properly crunchy at the edges. The key is squeezing the shreds very dry so they fry instead of steaming.

A restaurant-style chicken plate built on contrasts: crisp-skinned chicken thighs with silky beet purée, bright green herb purée, and a sharp mustard pan jus.

Soft, buttery, and intensely citrusy, this orange babka is swirled with brown sugar, cardamom, and poppy seeds. Then finished hot with a quick orange syrup (plus a little rosemary, because I felt like it).

A deeply savory mushroom soup built on well-browned mushrooms and shallots, gently warmed with cumin, coriander, and a subtle touch of cinnamon. Finished with spinach, it’s comforting, layered, and perfectly balanced.

Muffin-tin baklava pies made with orange-zested pie crust, spiced nuts, and a honey–maple syrup soak—crispy, sticky, and perfectly portioned.

A warming bowl of miso-enriched semolina topped with crispy chickpeas and caramelized mushrooms.

Charred cabbage wedges roasted in a savory-sweet miso butter, finished with yogurt, chili, and herbs.

Thick, tender matcha cookies with crisp edges and a glossy strawberry–balsamic “jewel” center—grassy, buttery, bright, and slightly dark at the edges.

Lime Pie with Basil and Strawberries is bright, herbal, and a little bit surprising. The basil makes the lime filling more complex, and the fresh strawberries keep it firmly in dessert territory rather than candy-sweet.

A moist, bright lemon loaf with a hint of turmeric—simple, reliable, and deeply repeatable.

Juicy oven-roasted chicken is brushed with hot butter, honey, and fresh lime, then served with simply cooked broccolini for a bold, balanced dish that feels both comforting and fresh.

Fluffy, tender pancakes with browned-butter depth, topped with whipped maple butter and finished with crunchy candied pepper bacon. It’s a full diner moment, but still a 15-minute fix if you do the bacon while the batter rests.

My fav recipe for easy weeknight salmon. It’s salty-sweet, takes basically no time, and you can make it no matter how tired you are.

Flatbread and hummus — sure, you can grab them at almost any store, but making them at home is easy, oddly satisfying, and especially good with my chicken kofta recipe, which you can find on my page.

Tender pulled chicken breast ragù in a soft, sweet soffritto base, finished with crème fraîche and lemon, served with a silky mushroom sauce over baked sweet potato.

A simple, flavorful chicken kofta served on warm homemade flatbread with hummus and a bright herb salad. The kofta are tender and well-spiced, the flatbread soft and pillowy, and the salad adds freshness and crunch. It's a complete meal that comes together beautifully—each component easy to make, but the result feels generous and deeply satisfying.

Pan-seared cauliflower steaks finished in the oven, served over a silky, sweet beet purée with balsamic depth. Cozy and bold.

This is the carrot cake. No further explanation needed. You use one bowl, one whisk, and one spatula, and it’s almost impossible to mess up the layers; they take care of themselves. It’s an easy weeknight project, equally suitable for surprising a friend, a neighbor, or just your own appetite.

This Catalan-inspired savory tart combines char-grilled leeks, smoky romesco, and a delicate bacon custard, all nestled in a buttery crust. It's inspired by the calçotada tradition but reimagined as a refined, make-ahead pie that's just as good warm as it is at room temperature.

A crisp puff-pastry galette with charred broccoli, tangy goat cheese, and bright blueberries.

This simple homemade loaf is made with everyday ingredients and minimal effort, producing a crisp crust and soft, airy crumb. No starter or special equipment required—just reliable, deeply satisfying bread.

They’re rich, very sweet, and surprisingly intricate in flavor. Yes, they take time, and yes, there are a few steps but the result is genuinely beautiful. Soft dough, warm spice, sharp berries, and that frosting settling into every corner. The real problem is that they don’t last. One turns into another very quickly. Dangerous, absolutely—but extremely tempting.

Cold salmon tartare with tangy Big Mac–style sauce, served with warm sesame muffins for scooping.

This baked oatmeal is warm, gently spiced, and bright with zesty citrus, jammy pears, and crunchy pumpkin seeds or pistachios. It’s the kind of breakfast you can prep in minutes and let the oven do the work. Oatmeal lovers, unite, you’ll want this on repeat.

Baked pears are the kind of dessert that feels both effortless and elegant. Fragrant with vanilla and citrus, with a subtle warmth from fresh ginger, they emerge from the oven glossy and tender, ready to be served on their own or alongside a scoop of bright sorbet.

This tart is all about contrast: a tender, olive oil–rich whole wheat crust filled with smoky roasted eggplant, bright marinara, and just enough cheese and tomato to make it feel like a cross between a quiche and a deep-dish pizza.

Soft English muffins served with roasted garlic butter, made punchy by a mix of raw and roasted garlic for a deep, savory finish.

A grill-pan flatbread stuffed with feta and brushed with a bright basil–mint oil, built for warm-weather cooking and easy sharing.
