Bengal-Style Fish Curry

This curry is based on the techniques and flavours of Bengali cuisine, which is noted for its many fish dishes. A firm-fleshed freshwater or saltwater fish is needed here: Tilapia or ocean perch fillets will do quite well. Serve with rice.

Corn-Topped White Chili Casserole

Creamy and satisfying, chicken chili is a crowd-pleaser, and is even better with the addition of a cheese-and-cornmeal topping. Canned beans and broth tend to be high in sodium, so we use the sodium-reduced varieties. If you want to reduce the salt even further, you can decrease the amount of seasoning in the meat mixture.

Lamb and Za'atar Flatbread With Pea Shoots

Za'atar, a Middle Eastern aromatic herb that's dried and ground, adds tons of flavour to a simple weeknight pizza. We've topped this flatbread with lightly dressed sweet pea shoots for a touch of freshness.

Persian Lamb Chops With Cucumber Salsa

The bold flavour of lamb can stand up to a good dose of fragrant spice coating and is a good foil for this refreshing salsa.

Maple-Mustard Pork Fajitas

A sticky maple syrup glaze on the pork makes these loaded fajitas slightly sweet and a favourite among kids. Save yourself some prep work by arranging the toppings on a platter and letting everyone assemble their own at the table.

Smoked Spiced Pork Loin

This roast is delicious sliced and served with potato salad or on a bun with your choice of mayonnaise and mustard, sauerkraut, coleslaw or corn relish.

Beefy Corn Tomato Casserole

The tomato paste used in this recipe is a concentrated source of lycopene, with 28 mg per 1/4 cup (50 mL) compared with 3 mg in 1 raw tomato. It is also noteworthy that research indicates lycopene from cooked or processed tomatoes is more readily absorbed by the body, especially if cooked with olive oil.

Garlic Labneh With Roasted Tomatoes & Naan

Spiced Lamb Samosas

Wrapping these flavourful Indian treats in spring roll wrappers makes them quick and easy. Serve with Coriander Chutney. A fine grater or rasp will give you the perfect texture for the garlic and gingerroot.
