PREP: 10 minutes | COOK: 11-14 minutes | YIELD: 4 x 6-inch flatbreads When I discovered zaatar, I couldn't get enough of it! It is an absolutely incredible combination of spices that works perfectly as a pick-me-up for simple flatbread. Don't hesitate to try it in...
PREP: 45 minutes | COOK: 30 minutes | YIELD: 12 mini quiches Try these for your next brunch or as an hors doeuvre at a party. They're adorable, and they're full of kale and sweet potato goodness. They also make a delicious snack! 12 kale leaves, stalk ends trimmed...
This is my Japanese take on classic American summertime flavors, served at SoBe in 2007. Most of these Asian products can be found at Whole Foods, in specialty stores, or online. If you have trouble finding fresh shiso, substitute a generous pinch of finely chopped...
This was one of the hors d’oeuvres at the Tribute Dinner honoring Emeril Lagasse at the Loews Miami Beach in 2009. We chose this as a vegetarian option, but it’s really the perfect canapé: it’s crunchy and bite-size, and the warm, tangy, salty goat cheese simply...

These individual tarts look great as a display. Because they are small, we roll the pastry between two pieces of baking parchment to make it easier to handle. A good tip is to use little ‘bean bags’ made from lentils or rice wrapped in foil for the blind-baking; this...
You will need the whey from the Baked beetroot, home-made curds and toasted sunflower seeds recipe (see here) for this dish; no point going through the process of making it again. Poaching the broccoli in whey gives an unusual tang, and it’s also a good way to use a...
Just to clear a few things up first: when I say turnips I mean the ones that are white with a light purple tinge; the vegetable which is pale yellow with a purple top is a swede. Both are good, but the flavour of swede tends to be a bit stronger. Roasting the turnips...
Summery, zingy and a bit quirky. This fruity salad would work nicely with the richness of the Cauliflower sheep’s cheese with fried mustard crumbs . This is the type of dish that benefits from a few hours of infusing. Pink peppercorns are actually not a true pepper...
