First stop: Ireland – Colcannon
If someone tells you they don’t like potatoes, run, run far away. This hearty dish born in the Emerald isles might sound simple, but it tastes fantastic!
Second stop: Marocco – Cranberry and lamb Moroccan tagine
Sweet, savoury, and exotic, just like the country it originates from, this meal is an international favorite. There is no doubt this dish will be a hit in any season!
To serve: Couscous with mint leaves and hummus, chopped pistachios
Tip: If you don’t have couscous, serve on a bed of white jasmine rice cooked with saffron and mint.
When choosing a tagine pot, opt for one that can be used on the stovetop and in the oven to ensure maximum flavour, such as the one at Uno Casa.
Third stop: Brazil – Brazilian cheese bread – Pao de queijo
This cheesy bread recipe is a special treat for gluten intolerant and would like to indulge in this bread ball delight.
Tip: The dough will resemble cottage cheese when it is ready to be baked.
Fourth stop: Kenya – African Peanut stew
Hearty, wholesome food that hugs you when you need it, this uniquely African stew is an experience you will never forget. It will transport you to safaris and the land of leopard print.
To serve: cooked brown rice, chopped coriander leaves, 1/3 cup toasted peanuts
