We were recently craving some Mexican food and came across some fresh made organic corn tortillas while were shopping at Blush Lane Organic Market. We were inspired to make some chicken enchiladas based on a dish we had for dinner at a friends place (thanks, you know who you are!). For those who don't know an enchilada is essentially a stuffed tortilla, smothered in tomato sauce and cheese. The rich flavours of the enchiladas are especially good with the contrasting fresh guacamole and salsa sides.

One of the favourite dishes my grandmother made me for lunch when I was young is this beef noodle soup recipe. Here we used soba noodles but Chinese rice noodles are more authentic. The topping is a delicious mixture of beef and pickled Chinese cabbage which gives the dish a nice sweet and sour flavour.

This delicious recipe is easy to make, all you need is some time. When sautéed over a low heat, the thinly sliced onions caramelize and develop a sweet savoury flavour that only requires simple additions to round out the flavour: sage, garlic and parmesan cheese.

I'll admit that I quite enjoy my pasta loaded up with sauce. However every so often I do like my pasta simple. In this recipe, the spaghetti is simply coated in the delicious oils rendered from the chorizo sausage and freshly grated parmesan cheese. The secret ingredient is a splash of good balsamic vinegar to cut through the richness of the sausage while adding a hint of sweetness.
