Baked Ocean Trout with Mushrooms Like this recipe? You’ll love my online Northern Italian cooking class inspired by Alessandro Pavoni!

Baked Salmon with Fennel & Orange Like this recipe? You’ll love my online Italian cooking class featuring the food of Liguria! Fennel, oranges and oregano are delicious flavourings for almost any seafood and I especially like them with a thick piece of crisp-skinned salmon. If you don’t like eating salmon skin, still cook the fish […]
Tuna Biryani Like this recipe? You’ll love my online Indian cooking class inspired by Ajoy Joshi! Tuna biryani is my pescatarian take on the more traditional Indian classic, lamb biryani. Tuna has great flavour, but a tendency to dry out quickly, so it’s best cooked in large pieces. At the table, encourage diners to flake […]
Teriyaki Salmon Skewers Like this recipe? You’ll love my online Japanese cooking class Inspired by Hideo Dekura! I love grilled salmon, especially when it’s basted with the salty-sweet-umami-rich sauce used on these teriyaki salmon skewers. The sauce can be made and skewers threaded ahead of time, so this is a great quick and easy dish […]
Salmon Bisteeya Like this recipe? You’ll love my online Middle Eastern cooking class inspired by Michael Rantissi!

This marinade is most often […]
Salmon al Cartoccio Like this recipe? You’ll love my online Greek cooking class Inspired by Janni Kyritsis! This salmon al cartoccio (or sto harti in Greek) is inspired by the classic Greek slow-cooked lamb as taught to me by my friend Janni Kyritsis. The low-slow cooking in a parcel gives a wonderfully delicate result, the […]
Persian Fish with Barberry Sauce Like this recipe? You’ll love my online Persian cooking class! This tangy barberry sauce is usually served with chicken in a traditional Persian dish called zereshk polo ba morgh, but I discovered that it works just as well with seafood. I like to use large pieces of a firm flaky […]
Blue Mackerel with Romesco Sauce Like this recipe? You’ll love my online Spanish cooking class! Spaniards love oily fish, including mackerel, sardines, tuna, bonito and anchovies; and their tangy, slightly spicy Romesco sauce is a great accompaniment to any of these (see video below). I love blue mackerel for their thin plate-sized fillets and gorgeous […]
Swordfish in Orange Sauce Like this recipe? You’ll love my online French cooking class Inspired by Damien Pignolet! I find that meaty swordfish has quite an affinity with orange. This recipe was inspired by duck à l’orange, so you can call it poisson à l’orange if you want to be fancy. Swordfish has a tendency […]
