Moroccan Lentil Risotto with Lamb Merguez Sausage and Cucumber Lemon Yogurt

February 18, 2015 by Samantha 9 Comments

This recipe and the next two came about through a collaboration with the talented food photographer Joey Armstrong. She’s got mad skills behind the lens! I had wanted to do risotto, but a truly inspired risotto theme based around different global flavours. New flavours, old technique. All the recipes turned out much better than any expectations I had held. They’re really delicious. And, I’m not just saying that because I made them up, I’m saying it because somehow, I made these ingredients work together and taste great.

Mini #3: Curried Tofu, Potatoes, and Tomatoes

June 2, 2014 by Samantha Leave a Comment

My Kitchen Love - Mini #3This is my go to meal for Z & I when I’m in a pinch and have limited resources in the pantry. They aren’t the biggest fans of tofu, however, when blended with curried tomatoes and potatoes, they gobble it down. It’s an easy meal that introduces curry to their palates. I like to think that a wider range of flavours now will make them better eaters later on.

OLYMPUS DIGITAL CAMERA

As always, make sure your baby has been introduced to these foods previously to avoid allergic reactions. I’d suggested serving it to babies 9 months plus.

Makes 4 servings

Ingredients:

1 350 gr. package of firm tofu
1/2 pint of cherry tomatoes
8 small nugget potatoes
1 tsp of curry powder
Drizzle of olive oil

Directions:

Pre-heat oven to 375° F.

Place potatoes in a pot and cover with water. Put on high and bring to a boil. Reduce temperature to medium and simmer for 20-25 minutes until tender. Drain and set aside.

Place tomatoes on rimmed baking sheet and toss with olive oil and curry powder. Put in heated oven and bake for 20 minutes, until tomatoes have started to burst.

Place tofu, potatoes, and tomatoes in blender and blend until desired consistency is reached.

Serve to adorable babies.

Instant Pot Chocolate Cake 🎂 Literally comes Instant Pot Chocolate Cake 🎂 

Literally comes together in one bowl in under 10 minutes and then you park it in the IP for a short period of time to cook. Ovens need not apply and nor do many dishes. 

It’s my fudgy chocolatey cake of choice - I made it today for my own birthday 🥳 it’s easy, fast, and impossible to resist.

Hope everyone’s hump day is going well. In addition to a pro-d on Friday, the universe also granted me early dismissal from school today! More time at home with my kids, just the birthday gift I never knew I wanted during a global pandemic! 🤪
