Smashed Potatoes
Use your favourite herbs and spices to top these tasty, crunchy potatoes. Our family love a pinch of cayenne pepper, cumin and caraway seeds. I also like to dab the potatoes with a bit of butter before cooking.
Spicy Hasselback Potatoes
These are a lot more interesting than plain roasted or jacket potatoes. They’re perfect to serve with a roast and easy to do. As the potatoes cook the slices fan out so, as well as tasting great, they look pretty too!
24k Carrots
Carrots coated with a yummy butter, brown sugar and ginger sauce. I grew up eating these in Texas. Easy, quick and yummy!– GREAT way to get kids to enjoy this veggie! If you like a lot of sauce double the sauce ingredients. I posted this less ‘saucy’ to keep the fat and calories down. The sauce is yummy and great on rice or just on a spoon! Hope you enjoy it as much as we do! I am so honored that this simple little recipe of mine has been so well received. Thank you all for your reviews!
Armenian Kufta
This would be categorized as a ‘stuffed’ meatball! It’s a recipe that cousin Debbie, sister Diane and I worked on this winter, trying to replicate our grandmother’s kufta. It’s been many many years since we’ve had this, and I think we have it down pretty well. It can be made as a side dish or a main dish soup, by adding pasta and vegetables to the broth when you add the meatballs.
Eech (Armenian Bulgur Side Dish)
A tangy, savory Armenian side dish that can be served warm, room temperature or cold. I first tried it at St. Mary’s Armenian Church in Florida at their food fest and became instantly hooked. It is a mixture of bulgur (cracked wheat), onions, tomatoes, peppers and parsley.
