Hearty Vegetable Soup
This hearty vegetable pasta is the perfect recipe for a cold rainy day, or when you need some veges in your life!
This recipe is on high rotation in my house during winter, it’s so warming and hearty and the perfect cozy night meal.
Packed with nutritious vegetables, aromatic herbs, and a satisfying grain, it’s a bowl of goodness that warms you from the inside out.
It is perfect for weekday meal prep and will keep in the fridge for 5 days, or as I like to do is batch cook and freeze portions!
The recipe has kaffir lime leaves in it, which gives an element of flavour you wouldn’t expect and it really takes it to the next level. If you cannot find them, you could use bay leaves or just leave it out.
Serve piping hot with a slice of crusty bread, a sprinkle of grated parmesan, or simply enjoy it on its own. This soup is as nourishing as it is delicious—perfect for sharing or savoring solo.
Pro Tip: Leftovers taste even better the next day, as the flavors continue to deepen.
Marry Me Pasta with a Twist
Could a pasta dish really be the secret to a proposal?
While I can’t guarantee a ring, this recipe just might have the power to woo anyone lucky enough to try it! Inspired by the viral “Marry Me Chicken” pasta on TikTok, this dish swaps the traditional chicken for spicy Italian sausage, taking the flavor to the next level.
The sundried tomatoes, mushroom and sausage pair perfectly together and the addition of sweet paprika gives it a little smokey element which elevates the dish.
I have used Farfalle (bow pasta) for this recipe and it works really well as the little grooves soak up that sauce, however feel free to use whatever your heart desires.
This is a super quick and easy weeknight dinner, that comes together in 20 minutes so a good one to have in your weeknight recipe repetoire, or great for when hosting a big group of people. Also, it’s one pot (well 2 including the pot to boil the pasta) which is a massive win!
As always, let me know if you try it in the comments or reach out to me on Instagram @cookingwithdanie if you have any questions!
Prawn Linguine
An easy but flavour packed recipe that everyone will love!
A prawn linguine is a must have in your recipe repetoire. It is easy to make, but super impressive and packed with flavour!
Where possible, purchase green king prawns that are still in their shell and peel them yourself - they are much fresher and leaving the shells on will add flavour to your sauce!
Ribs in Sugo
This recipe is something dear to my heart and takes me right back to my childhood!
The slow cooking of the pork ribs in the sauce creates the most delicious, deep and rich sauce. The longer you cook it for, the better but you at least need to let them cook for 2 hours so they fall off the bone!
The end result is definitely worth the wait, the sauce is so rich and pairs perfectly with freshly made pasta. An additional bowl of ribs on the side is a must, and if you have leftovers have it the next night on mash!
