Place a large pot of water to boil, add breadfruit, and let it cook for around 30 minutes Remove breadfruit from pot and let it cool for a few minutes Hold the breadfruit firmly and using a large sharp knife slice into thin rounds Slice as many as you need Then cut off skin and core (You may leave the core on if you like) Gently fold to shape like a taco shell, use two toothpicks to hold it in place. Place on a large plate or tray and repeat this process for all breadfruit slices Heat oil for deep frying, using a pair of tongs submerge breadfruit slices in pan, You can guide slices with tongs if you need to You can leave the small toothpicks in the taco shells and remove them after they're cooked. Or, you can do like I did. If your'e using larger toothpicks, you may need to remove them safely. Be very careful as you need to adjust it in the hot oil. Remove when golden brown Set over tissue paper Repeat this for the rest of the shells Stuff the shell with your favorite filling. I chose codfish/ salt fish

Combine the flour, the sugar, yeast, and salt in a mixing bowl or large bowl Add warm milk and start kneading dough Once the dough is smooth and elastic, add the butter and continue kneading Allow the dough to rise in a covered bowl until it’s doubled in bulk, about 90 minutes. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface, divide dough and round all of the pieces into smooth balls. Lightly grease pans Place dough on pan Cover the pans, and let the loaves rise until they're puffy and soft Using a brush, add egg whites to loaves Towards the end of the rising time, preheat the oven to 375°F Uncover the loaves, and bake them for 28 to 32 minutes, until their crust is golden brown Remove from oven and enjoy

step 1 Heat the oven to 220C/200C fan/gas 7. Oil or butter a baking sheet and set aside. step 2 Heat the milk, butter and salt in a medium saucepan and bring to a boil. Remove from the heat and add the tapioca flour. Stir vigorously, then leave to cool a little. step 3 Pour the dough into a standing mix to beat the dough until its cool, or use a wooden spoon and beat by hand. Beat the eggs in one at a time, waiting until each is completely incorporated before adding the next. When the dough is glossy and mixed, add the parmesan. Beat again until mixed. step 4 Spoon the dough onto the baking sheet in 1 tbsp balls, 5cm apart. Bake for 30 mins until crisp and golden. Remove from the oven and eat while still warm.

1. Heat 2 tbsp vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering, about 1 minute. 2. Add 4 cloves minced garlic and 2 finely chopped shallots to the skillet, stirring constantly until fragrant and lightly golden, 2-3 minutes. 3. Tip: Keep the heat medium to prevent burning—garlic can turn bitter if overcooked. 4. Add 1 lb ground pork to the skillet, breaking it up with a spoon, and cook until no pink remains, 5-7 minutes. 5. Stir in 3 tbsp prahok and cook for 1 minute to blend the flavors, mashing it slightly into the pork. 6. Pour in 1 cup coconut milk, stirring to combine, then reduce heat to medium-low and simmer for 10 minutes until the mixture thickens slightly. 7. Tip: Simmer gently to avoid curdling the coconut milk—a steady bubble is ideal. 8. Add 2 tbsp fish sauce, 1 tbsp palm sugar, and 2 minced Thai chilies, stirring until the sugar dissolves, about 2 minutes. 9. Remove the skillet from heat and stir in 2 tbsp lime juice, mixing thoroughly. 10. Tip: Add lime juice off the heat to preserve its fresh, tangy flavor without cooking it out. 11. Transfer the dip to a serving bowl and garnish with ¼ cup chopped fresh cilantro. 12. Let the dip cool for 5 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to meld.

Put the corn flour in a bowl and add the salted water little by little, mixing with the flour until all the water has been used and the flour has become a dough. Let it rest for five minutes. Now, shape the dough into round rolls about 3 inches in diameter and 1/2 inch thick. In a lightly greased skillet, slowly cook the arepas until a crust forms on each side. Now place them into a casserole and bake in the oven at 350 degrees for approximately 20 minutes, until the arepas sound hollow when tapped. To enhance taste: instead of using just water, use chicken or beef broth.

Place coconut cream in a small pot over low heat. Cut 3 pandan leaves into large strips and add to the pot with brown sugar, salt, and ginger. Bring to a boil, then cook 2 more minutes. Turn off the heat, remove the pandan leaves, and let cool. Chop the remaining 4 pandan leaves, blend with ¼ cup water until very green, then strain well. In a bowl, place 200 g sticky rice flour, add a little pandan liquid, and knead until smooth. Peel and chop beetroot, blend with ¼ cup water until red, then strain well. In a bowl, place 200 g sticky rice flour, add a little beetroot liquid, and knead until smooth. Bring 3 litres of water to a boil in a medium–large pot. Divide each dough into small pieces, roll into balls about ⅓ the size of a ping pong ball, then drop into boiling water. When they float, remove and place them into fresh, icy water to keep them separate. Drain well, then place the mixed colored balls into the cooled coconut sugar syrup and stir. Serve in small bowls (add longan and shredded coconut as desired). Add the coloring liquids gradually—each flour absorbs differently. You want a dough that’s smooth and pliable, not sticky.

Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C). Grease a baking sheet. Whisk flour, 1 cup melted butter, milk, baking powder, and salt together in a bowl until begins to pull together. Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface; knead until smooth and elastic. Roll dough out to ⅛-inch thickness; cut into 8-inch circles. Brush circles with remaining 3 tablespoons melted butter. Fold each circle in half, then fold in half again to form triangles. Press firmly to seal the layers; place on the prepared baking sheet. Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown, about 15 minutes. Serve warm

step 1 Heat oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Rub 4 ramekins, about 175ml capacity, or dariole moulds liberally with the soft butter. Sprinkle with the caster sugar to coat. step 2 In a medium bowl, press the egg yolks through a wire sieve and mix with the coconut milk, sugar, coconut and vanilla. Pour into ramekins and place in a large roasting tin in the oven. step 3 Pour water into the roasting tin to three-quarters up the ramekins so it acts like a bain marie or water bath for the quindim. Bake for 30-35 mins until the tops are golden. Take the ramekins out of the water and leave to cool for 5 mins. step 4 Chill for 4 hrs and then run a knife around the edge. Place a plate on top and turn out the quindims to serve.

1) In a large bowl, combine the butter and caster sugar until creamy. Add the egg and a pinch of salt. 2) Stir into a buttery mixture. Add the sifted flour. 3) Whisk well. You should end up with a smooth dough. Cover it with a piece of plastic wrap and put the dough in the fridge for 15 minutes to chill and set. 4) In the meantime combine the cassonade (or brown sugar) and the cinnamon. 5) Transfer the dough onto a floured surface and knead it for a minute. Add extra flour if necessary. Roll the dough out gently into a nice rectangle. It should be about ⅕-inch (5 mm) thick. Sprinkle with the sugary cinnamon mixture. 6) Carefully start rolling the dough up. If it is too sticky, put it in the fridge again for a couple of minutes. Wrap it up tightly in plastic wrap. 7) Put it in the fridge for 30 minutes to chill and set. After that, remove the cling film and cut the dough roll into even slices. 8) Place the slices on a baking paper lined baking tray. Bake the cookies in a preheated oven at 356°F (180°C) for 14 to 16 minutes. 9) Let the baked cinnamon roll cookies cool down fully before eating or wrapping them up.

Simply combine everything in a bowl and serve alongside just about anything.

Peel and cut potatoes in cubes, boil in salted water until tender. Chop peppers and onion and set aside. Mix together mayonnaise, mustard, sugar and black pepper and set aside. Drain potatoes once tender and place in large mixing bowl. Add remaining ingredients and mix well. The salad may be served warm, but is normally served after it has been refrigerated for 2 to 3 hours.

1 Prepare In a mixing bowl cream together the eggs, sugar and cooled melted butter then add the honey and soda. 2 Add half the flour and the walnuts (you can add the walnuts whole or ground them) and mix well. 3 Add the rest of the flour and using your hands kneed the mixture together until a firm dough is formed. 4 Coat a large baking tray (traditionally a circle tray is used about 30cm is best with a 2 - 3 inch height) with olive oil. Add the dough and press it down so that it fits the whole tray. Try and get the dough flat and equal in height all over. 5 Baking Place on the bottom shelf of a cold oven and turn the temperture up to 180 degrees. Bake for 35 minutes and the dough has turned dark brown and is firm to touch. 6 Remove from the oven and leave to cool while making the syrup. 7 Adding the Syrup Add the sugar and water to a saucepan and bring to the boil. Leave boiling for 10 minutes, mixing occasionally. Remove from the heat. 8 Cut the Shendetlie into squares of diamond shapes and pour over the hot syrup. Use enough of the syrup to cover the cake plus 1 cm overflowing, sitting on top. This will soak into the cake while you leave it to cool for at least 1 hour before serving.

Wash rice in cold water until water runs clear. Sauté onions in olive oil until tender. Add spices and stir until fragrant. Add remaining ingredients. Bring to a gentle boil, then simmer for 30 minutes until all stock is absorbed and rice is tender. Serve as a side dish or filling for dolmas.

Place the flour in a large bowl and add the yeast and sugar. If the milk is cold make sure to heat it to lukewarm. Mix your flour mixture bit by bit with the milk until you have a smooth batter. Add the salt and mix with a wooden spoon till the batter is smooth and liquidy. Cover with a clean tea towel and leave in a warm spot for about an hour to rise. Heat your deep fryer or add the oil to a large pot. The oil should be a t 180˚C (350˚F) for best results. Before starting stir your batter through and scoop the batter with two spoons or with an ice cream scoop. Let it drop into the oil carefully. It is easiest to do this if you dip your spoons or scoop into the oil before dipping into the batter. That way it will slide of the spoons easily. Don't over crowd the fryer to prevent the oil cooling down too quickly and everything sticking together. Once one side is golden brown it usually turns around to the other side automatically. If not help it along with two forks. Take the balls out once golden brown and leave to drain on a piece of kitchen paper.

step 1 Heat the oven to 180C/160C fan/ gas 4. Oil and line the base of a 20cm springform cake tin. Mix the flour, sugar and baking powder together in a large bowl and set aside. Tip the oil, carrots and eggs in a blender and blitz until smooth. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry, stirring until smooth. step 2 Pour the batter into the cake tin and give it a shake to get rid of air bubbles. Bake for 45 mins to 1 hr, until a clean knife or skewer inserted into the middle comes out clean. If the middle is sticky, put back in the oven for a further 5 mins. Remove from the oven and leave to cool in the tin. step 3 For the drizzle, heat the milk, cocoa and sugar in a saucepan over a low heat. Stir until the sugar dissolves (about 5 mins), creating a thick, shiny drizzle. step 4 Remove the cake from the tin and level the top using a serrated knife, then flip so the bottom becomes the top. Pierce all over using a knife or toothpick and put on a wire rack with a tray or large bowl underneath. Pour the drizzle over the cake in batches until it’s all absorbed. You can reuse any drizzle caught in the tray or bowl. Most of the drizzle should be absorbed.

Preheat oven to 350 F. Line 2-3 baking sheets with parchment paper. In a bowl, combine flour, salt, cinnamon and baking soda. In the bowl of a stand mixer, fitted with the paddle attachment, beat together eggs and powdered sugar for3 minutes. Add vanilla extract and honey. Mix to combine, then add oil. Add the flour mixture in two increments and beat to incorporate. Let the dough rest for 5-10 minutes. Shape 2 tbsp balls, place on baking sheets and press flat. Bake for 12-15 minutes, until golden. Let the cookies cool down completely. Melt white and semi-sweet chocolate separately with 1 tbsp vegetable oil each. Dip cookies halfway into chocolate. Let it set. Keep in a air tight container or wrapped in cellophane bags for up to 2 weeks in room temperature or refrigerated.

step 1 In a medium heavy-based saucepan, heat the butter, condensed milk, a pinch of salt and the cocoa, to boiling, stirring constantly with a wooden spoon. Reduce the heat to medium-low; cook for 10-15 mins, stirring constantly, until the mixture is thick and shiny and starts to pull away from the bottom. step 2 Stir in the vanilla and vigorously mix again. Pour the mixture onto a buttered plate. Chill for at least 2 hrs. step 3 Butter your hands and pinch off some of the dough to make 2.5cm balls. Place your toppings into small bowls and roll the balls of one of the decorations. Place in mini paper baking cups or on a tray lined with non-stick baking paper

Place all the ingredients, except the oil in a medium bowl and mix well using your hands until soft and smooth dough is obtained. Form small balls using your hands. In a deep pot, heat the vegetable oil to 300°F (Warm, not very hot). Carefully drop the balls in the warm oil and fry for about 3 to 4 minutes or until gilden brown. Remove from the oil and drain on a plate lined with paper towels. Serve. Frying Colombian buñuelos using the right temperature is very important. The oil can't be very hot or very cold. Be sure the oil is heated to 300 to 320 grades F.

1. In a large bowl, combine the coconut milk, soy sauce, oyster sauce, honey, minced garlic, and black pepper to make the marinade. 2. Add the thinly sliced pork shoulder to the marinade, ensuring each piece is fully coated, then cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to penetrate. 3. While the pork marinates, rinse the jasmine rice under cold water until the water runs clear to remove excess starch, which helps prevent clumping. 4. In a medium pot, combine the rinsed rice and 4 cups of water, bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce to a simmer, cover, and cook for 15 minutes until the water is absorbed and the rice is tender. 5. Heat a grill pan or outdoor grill to medium-high heat (about 400°F) and lightly brush with vegetable oil to prevent sticking. 6. Remove the pork from the marinade, shaking off any excess, and place it on the hot grill, cooking for 3-4 minutes per side until nicely charred and cooked through with an internal temperature of 145°F. 7. Tip: Avoid overcrowding the grill pan to ensure even browning and proper caramelization of the marinade. 8. Once the pork is grilled, let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing to retain its juices and tenderness. 9. Tip: If you prefer a saucier dish, simmer the leftover marinade in a small saucepan for 5 minutes until slightly thickened and drizzle it over the pork. 10. Fluff the cooked rice with a fork to separate the grains and serve it warm alongside the grilled pork slices. 11. Arrange the thinly sliced cucumber and fresh cilantro leaves on top as a refreshing garnish. 12. Tip: For an extra kick, serve with a side of pickled vegetables or a squeeze of lime juice to balance the rich, savory flavors.

Cut the breadfruit, remove the seeds in the core, and peel. Boil in salted water with a little onion and oil, over high heat until tender and drain. Meanwhile, melt the butter in a frying pan and lightly brown the onion rings. Add the garlic, tomatoes, parsley, lime juice, salt, and pepper. Continue to sauté for a couple of minutes. Add the water, bring to the boil and simmer for 5-10 minutes. Slice the cooled breadfruit and place it in a serving dish. Pour the butter sauce over the breadfruit. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley. Serves 4

Cut the cheese and long strips and place in your fridge to prevent it becoming soft. Mix flour, butter and egg in a bowl, and add sugar, salt and olive oil to taste into the mix. Then gradually add milk and knead well for a suitable consistency. Stretch out the dough with a rolling pin and cut into long strips (2 to 3 cm) and then roll the strips of dough around the cheese strips forming a spiral. Make sure the dough covers the cheese fully so that it doesn't melt out while frying. Roll the cheese & dough strips through flour to prevent them from sticking while frying. Heat oil in a frying pan until hot before placing the cheese sticks, and fry until golden in color.

Heat the oil in a skillet over medium heat. When hot, add the diced onion and cook until lightly browned. Add the curry powder and salt to taste and toast for a few seconds. Add the chopped tomatoes and the water, stir well, and cook until the tomatoes begin to break down, 5-7 minutes. Add in the chopped (or baby) spinach and cook for 7-10 minutes more, until soft and wilted.

1. Add the chopped potatoes and garlic to a high pan and fill it with tap water until the potatoes are fully submerged. 2. Add some salt. Then place the pan over high heat and bring the potatoes to a boil. Cook them until tender. In the meantime rinse and drain the savoy cabbage. Slice it up finely. 3. Add a tablespoon of butter to a large non-stick pan. Place it over medium-high heat. Once melted, add the savoy cabbage. Season with a pinch of pepper and salt. 4. Stir fry the cabbage for 15 to 20 minutes or until the cabbage is soft and tender. Then turn the heat off and take the cabbage off the heat. In the meantime, pan fry the sausages (or sliced bacon if you are using both) in a non-stick pan in a tablespoon of butter or oil until golden brown and cooked through. 5. Transfer the sausages (and bacon) to a plate and cover with a lid or tinfoil to keep the meat warm. In the same greasy pan, add the sliced onion and extra butter and cook it gently over medium heat for 10 minutes until softened. (I often add diced bacon as well, if I only serve the stoemp with sausages.) 6. Then add the beer and turn the heat up. Let the beer reduce until you get a nice beer and onion sauce (you can add a little flour or sauce thickener if you like). Add the pan fried meat back to the pan and cover to keep warm. 7. Drain the cooked potatoes and garlic, add them back to the pan you cooked them in together with the pan fried cabbage and chopped parsley. Sprinkle with some pepper, salt and nutmeg. Also add the milk and the rest of the unsalted butter. 8. Mash the potatoes, parsley and cabbage up. Add extra butter or milk if necessary. Also check the seasoning and add extra pepper, nutmeg or salt to taste if necessary. Scoop the cabbage mash onto plates and top with the pan fried sausages (and bacon). Drizzle with the beer and onion sauce. Serve hot.

Beat the eggs, sugar and vanilla sugar until light and fluffy. I beat this in a stand mixer on medium-high speed for about 10 minutes. Sift the flour and cornstarch and add to the mixture. Fold this gently into the mixture; you don’t want all the air you whipped in to disappear. Pour the batter into a greased baking pan. Bake the cake base at 180°C/350°F (conventional oven) for 30 minutes. The cake is done when you press lightly on the top and it springs back. Allow the cake to cool in the pan for a few minutes before removing it to a cake rack. Meanwhile, prepare the nougatine and jam according to the recipe if you haven’t already. Let the cake cool completely before you cut it. If, like me, you used a 20 cm/8 inch spring form pan, cut the cake into three layers.
