Beef Caldo with Spinach

Recipe by: Holly B.

Be the first to review it!

This is a nutritious and delicious Mexican soup, called a 'caldo'. It is too dense to be a soup, and is almost a stew, except the liquid hasn't been thickened. The flavours are deep and rich.

Bisschopswijn

Recipe by: else

Be the first to review it!

Bisschopswijn, meaning 'bishop's wine', is the Dutch version of the German gluehwein, a hot drink for snowy holidays that makes you glow inside. Don't drink this if you have to drive tonight! Each household has its own variety, this is the one my Dutch neighbors used to make when I was a kid in Amsterdam, for Christmas and New Year's Eve.

Boiled beef and carrots with dumplings

Recipe by: Chrissie Lloyd

Reviews(1)

Silverside is a lean cut of beef, but you can also use plain or salt brisket. The dumplings puff to twice their original size, so allow plenty of room in the casserole.

Brazilian Black Bean Stew

Recipe by: CRVGRL

The meat can be omitted without compromising the dish. Serve hot with crusty bread and a nice spinach salad.

Buckwheat Cauliflower Cheese

Recipe by: Jan Cutler

Be the first to review it!

Kasha, or buckwheat, is one the fastest grains to cook. It's a non-wheat grain that has a nutty texture and mildly aromatic flavour which goes very well with vegetables and a creamy cheese sauce.

Cara's Corn Chip Chilli Lasagna

Recipe by: caraanne

Reviews(1)

An excellent hearty and warming family meal. Can be mildly mouthwatering or hot as you dare. It can also be varied ever so slightly by trying different flavoured corn chips/tortilla chips. Try zingy lime or fragrant chilli varieties to suit your own tastes. I have seen chilli lasagna recipes before but always using pasta sheets which doesn't feel very Mexican to me. Serve with a crisp cooling salad dressed with mint, cucumber, yoghurt or soured cream.

Cardamom-spiced grape juice

Spicy grape juice, served chilled or hot, is a drink for all seasons.
