Yes, spinach is super healthy and is filled with vitamin K, vitamin A, vitamin C, folate, magnesium, iron etc etc but let’s be honest, spinach on it’s own can be quite dull if you don’t add cream or cheese (which makes it a little less healthy again). I fell in love with Catalan-Style Spinach the first time I tried it because of the great mix between the salty spinach and pine nuts and the sweet dry raisins - this is really a dish for everyone and I can imagine kids everywhere loving this dish as well.

Spinach and Cheese Fatayer are one of my all time favourite Middle Eastern dishes along with Hummus and Falafel. Fatayer’s are usually made with a meat filling but the Spinach filling is also quite popular in Lebanon and other Middle Eastern’s countries. The Fatayer’s are quite easy to make you don’t even have to pre-cook the filling.

Turrón, or torrone, is a special nougat dessert that is very popular in Spain and Italy. It’s usually made with honey, sugar and egg white and sometimes almonds or other nuts. This year we decided to make a very special Chocolate Turrón version made with Alprose Chocolate, Salted Corn Nuts and Corn Flakes - trust us everyone will love it!

Churros are very famous fried dough pastries which can be found in Spain, Portugal and South America. Churros are usually eaten either with hot chocolate, dulce de leche or simply with sugar but many people also eat them with jam, lemon curd or peanut butter. Churros are delicious no matter what you eat them with.

We keep going with Spanish week with a very popular dessert. Natillas is a rich vanilla-flavoured egg custard from Spain, lightly flavoured with cinnamon. It is a very easy dessert to make and it is absolutely delicious.

Tombet is made with potatoes, red pepper, aubergine, zucchini and tomato sauce so it’s not only vegan but also quite cheap :) This dish requires all the vegetables to be cut into 1cm slices and fried - don’t worry it will not result heavy or oily in the end if you drain your veggies well enough.

This week Spanish Week starts and we decided to start with a refreshing and super easy to make gazpacho! We promise this will be the easiest recipe you will ever make and you will be thanking us forever. Made with tomatoes, green pepper, bread, cucumber, olive oil, garlic and red vinegar this is also a very cheap dish.

Easy, delicate and cheap - Salmorejo is one of Spain’s favorite dishes.
