Grilled tofu paired with a lightly hand-mashed guacamole already creates a satisfying base, but adding grilled small peppers, red beets and broccoli brings more depth, color and texture. Finished with toasted pine nuts, olive oil and a drizzle of reduced balsamic vinegar, it’s a salad that feels complete and looks quietly elegant.
A simple sauce inspired by the famous Sicilian tomato-olive combinations - but lighter and more restrained.
Onions and carrots gently simmered to sweeten the tomato base, olives for the special flavor and a good olive oil to round it all out.
The salmon is roasted until tender, then finished under the grill with balsamic vinegar for a caramelized crust.
We already know “aglio e olio“ pasta, the beloved Italian classic. Adding Some parmesan, dried tomatoes and lemon next to the garlic and olive oil will take you to a new interesting path not far away from the original.
Grilled zucchini pair well with almost everything and feel right at almost any time of the day.
Baked sea bream and steamed potatoes are a classic combination but turning them into a salad - finished with a lemony yoghurt-parsley dressing - makes things more interesting.
