1487. Blackberry Pavlova Roll

Fruity pavlova desserts have quickly become a favorite here. Naturally, one experiments with different types for added adventure. This blackberry pavlova roll may seem fancy and laborious, but indeed it is quite intermediately simple to execute.

1486. Lamb Bean Stew

You can take the long way to do this (phased cooking in a pot), or the short way (pressure cooker), and still end up with a comforting, wholesome stew. Sometimes beans are used in place of meat, but in this case, the stew combines two kinds of beans with hefty chunks of lamb.

1485. Potato Bread Buns

Soft yeast breads are not my favorite thing to make, but I sure to appreciate them. This recipe can be made into buns for burgers, or rolls for quick sandwiches. Either way, the extra-softness of the bread comes from mashed potato.

1484. Orange Marmalade Cake

This is one of those cakes where you literally put all the ingredients in a bowl, stir, and bake. A wonderful thing about it is that it utilizes just over half a jar of orange marmalade jam, which for me was just perfect.

1483. Greek Snow Pea Stew

This is an olive oil based Greek stew featuring snow peas as the main ingredient. To add some heft, potatoes were also added. They are accidentally vegan, and you will not miss the meat.

1482. Egg In A Hole

Weekend breakfast, get prepared. This is an absolute simplistic way to have fun with your weekend eggs. Of course, any type of bread can be used, and the soft toast variety is an especially popular choice. We at MCW are having our sourdough bread moment, so we went that route instead.

1481. Cheesy Corn Sambusak

Sambusak come in all colors and flavors of the rainbow. Some may be tradition, but nowadays, most certainly are not. This is an unconventional cheese and corn version born out of the merge of culture and wide availability of western products in the region.

1480. Lebanese Pea Stew

If I were a child, this is the kind of lunch I'd want to come back home to after school. Pea stew is a classic across the Middle East, and we have shared the Iraqi meatball version of the stew here on MCW before. This is a more relaxed version, probably most popular in Lebanon, using straight up minced meat.

1479. Churros

We've had a fair bit of eclairs, gougiers, croquembouche, and profiteroles on MCW, so there was absolutely no reason why not to give churros a go. You see, they share the same father, just have different mothers. 

1478. {Slow Cooker} Roast Lemon Garlic Chicken

Yet another roast chicken recipe may not be exactly what you seek, but if you have a slow cooker, take it out and cook this now.
