pan fried trout with lemon caper aioli
It's trout season here in Ontario and thousands of anglers have made their way to lakes, rivers, streams, brooks, and ponds around the countryside to catch one of the most beautiful fish out there.


seasonal asparagus with lemon caper aoli
It's asparagus season again which means spring is in the air. Asparagus served cold is just as good as it is served piping hot and perhaps better this time of year.





Spaghetti alla puttanesca
This is very flavourful pasta whose name roughly translated from Italian means “whore’s spaghetti”, no joke. The dish is thought to have originated in the state owned brothels of Italy in the 1950's.

Chick pea, green pea and pistachio couscous
This is a Moroccan inspired side dish that would go very well with grilled marinated meats or by itself. This dish can be eaten hot as a side or cold as a couscous salad.
