GUINEA FOWL AU RIESLING
Picture this: meat so tender it falls off the bone, mingling with earthy mushrooms, savoury lardons, and the creamiest of creams—what's not to adore? And let's not forget the star of the show—the Riesling wine. Its distinctive character orchestrates a symphony of flavors, yielding what I believe to be the quintessential white wine cream sauce, perfect for the season. It's an hearty centrepiece, tailor-made for autumn gatherings that beckon warmth and comfort.
OXTAIL CHILLI CON CARNE
Chilli Con Carne stands as the epitome of a perfect seasonal stew. This chilli recipe with oxtail is rich, hearty and has a depth of flavour that's nothing short of sublime. Served with a warm slice of corn bread, it embodies the essence of autumn comfort. Our tip: Make sure to cook a big batch of it and freeze it for those cold and busy days!
GAMMON CARNITAS
As the air carries a hint of chill, there's something special about savouring a slow-cooked piece of meat that you've laboured over on the weekend. Infused with a delightful combination of smoky and sweet flavours, this gammon carnitas is a dish that rewards patience. Offering up a bounty of rich and tender pork meat it finds its perfect companions in a luscious guacamole and warm tortillas. Perfect for sharing at this time of year.
PERUVIAN CREAMY CHICKEN STEW – AJI DE GALLINA
This creamy, gently spicy chicken stew owes its distinctive hue and flavor to Amarillo chillies, skillfully thickened with the richness of walnuts and parmesan. The result? A highly addictive, vibrant yellow creation traditionally accompanied by boiled eggs, rice, and a zingy olive dressing. The outcome is nothing short of mesmerizing, a bright yellow affair that warms both heart and palate.
COQ AU VIN WITH ROAST GRAPES
It definitely appears that the French seem to know a thing or two about cooking up a good stew. It could be due to the addition of wine in a number of them, including this classic Coq au Vin. Originally a rustic country dish, it has earned its place among the culinary greats. In our autumn-inspired adaptation, we've added a special touch: roasting grapes over the chicken. This twist brings a sweetness that perfectly balances the rich, velvety sauce of the stew. Bon appetit!
