This was the answer to The Latin Lover’s inquiry, “What are you planning for dinner?” This sort of just popped into my head. It went together quickly and had great flavor. Continue reading

I had falafel for lunch last week and I was reminded how much I love that flavor profile. I also noticed how nice and crispy the exterior was, so The Goddess, having a mind like a steel trap, thought, ‘hmmm…I wonder how a falafel mix would work for coating fish?” Continue reading

The Goddess absolutely adores condiments. At any given time, her fridge is bursting at the seams with such wonders. Relishes, chutneys, preserves, and pickles add something truly wonderful to sandwiches, a charcuterie platter, toast, meats or simply eat it with a spoon. Continue reading

You gotta’ love the New York Times cooking section. They offer up some amazing recipes and that’s where I got the idea for this dish. They have some truly spectacularly delicious recipes. Continue reading

Fresh tuna steaks, the thicker the better, are usually seared in a screaming hot cast iron skillet. They are usually served with just a simply sauce. This version is different and this is no ordinary sauce. The tuna is briefly and gently simmered in a lovely, tomato-based, sweet and sour sauce. Continue reading

The Goddess loves mayonnaise and tartar sauce is just so good. If she didn’t like fish as much as she does, tartar sauce alone would be reason enough to eat fish! Continue reading

Seven Layer Dip has been around for years, and with good reason. It’s delicious. It’s easy and it’s delicious. It goes together in a flash and it’s delicious…are you seeing a pattern here? But, seven layers is just a tad too limiting for The Goddess…. Continue reading

I probably shouldn’t be calling this Sicilian Eggplant, since I’m not only not Sicilian, hell, I’m not even Italian. This may seem like it has non-Italian flavors, but we need to remember that the Moors “visited” Sicily for quite a number of years. Therefore, this has many of the flavors they left behind, after they moved on. You know, things like raisins, pistachios and cumin. It matters not what those flavors are, it’s still darned delicious.

You may have heard rumor that The Goddess has a torrid affair going. Don’t worry your pretty little head about it, The Spicy Honey knows all about my relationship with eggplant. I love it (and him!) in any and every form, but roasted (not him!) is I think perhaps, my favorite. Continue reading
