Chicken Osso Bucco

Spicy, sweet, salty, crunchy…and completely addictive. That’s how one could describe this Chinese condiment. It has become super trendy in recent years. Use it to boost the flavour of eggs, grilled meat, noodles, tofu and anything that could use a hint of spiciness.

In winter, entertaining with comforting dishes is great, but it’s nice when they also have a touch of refinement. With this barley recipe, you can’t go wrong. The depth of flavour is divine with confit duck leg, miso and mushrooms.

Both chic and familiar, vol-au-vents consist of puff pastry, a chicken and vegetable garnish, and a creamy sauce that binds it all. This version pays tribute to the original French recipe.

Use the air fryer to cook white fish, then break it into pieces and add it to beans marinated with anchovies, garlic and lemon dressing. This warm salad is ready in less than 20 minutes. Convenient!

Sold at IGA stores, our RICARDO Braised Beef and Mushroom Ravioli are perfect for an effortless flavourful meal. For this recipe, cook the fresh pasta in boiling water for 3 minutes, then coat it in a generous red wine sauce with mushrooms. Thus presented, the pasta gains in elegance and flavour, becoming a great ally for weeknight suppers and even more elegant weekend dinners.

Here’s a piece of beef as we love it, with the idea that people can serve themselves directly at the table, buffet-style, with potatoes that cook at the same time as the meat. Steak spices and mustard give the dish a lot of flavour, while the dressing featuring the surprising combination of horseradish and maple syrup is offered upon serving. A tip of the hat to the Sunday roast.

Also known as stuffed eggs, this essential dish of the holidays can be reinvented endlessly. In this version, we stray a little from the original recipe, made with eggs and mayonnaise, by adding bacon, breadcrumbs and hot sauce. Make the toppings in advance and simply assemble the dish just before eating. An hors d’oeuvre that everyone loves, ideal to accompany lively discussions around the table.

Making sushi with ease is possible, thanks to this surprising recipe! Shape sushi rice into a ball after stuffing it with cubes of avocado. On top, place fresh ingredients, like shrimp, mango or radishes, creating various patterns and textures. You’ll get brightly coloured spheres that are perfect little bites, to serve as an novel aperitif.
