Ratatouille
Originating in the French city of Nice in the late 19th century, ratatouille is a Provençal peasant dish of stewed vegetables – traditionally aubergine, courgette and pepper cooked in a tomato base with regional herbs. Although the earliest record of ratatouille dates back less than 150 years, there are a great many variations in cooking technique. According to the noted encyclopedia of gastronomy, Larousse Gastronomique, purists claim that each vegetable should be cooked separately and then combined, so that each retains its own flavour.
Roasted Vegetables with Pesto and Feta
This light, flavourful vegetable dish makes an excellent lunch as a side or as a salad, and is great served hot or cold. You can leave the feta out and use our Parev, Kosher for Passover Pesto to make the recipe vegan and Pesach-friendly.
Vegetarian Stuffed Aubergines
One of the most joyful things about cooking is experimentation, and we love a versatile recipe. A vegetarian alternative to our meat-stuffed aubergines, the recipe below is for a mushroom, spinach and tomato-filled aubergine, topped with cheese, but almost everything about this recipe is optional. A great way to use up whatever vegetables, herbs and greens are knocking about in the fridge, the only essential part here is the aubergine!
Super Simple Mango, Lime and Chilli Salsa
Delicious flavours of Mexico shine through in this quick, easy and incredibly versatile salsa which is perfect on grilled fish, chicken, pulled beef or our loaded matzah nachos.
Loaded Matzah Nachos
These delicious Loaded Matzah Nachos are a speedy crowd-pleaser. Easy, fun and tasty, these are a great Passover treat, and can be whipped up in minutes. Try topped with Guacamole (recipe below) or BBQ mushrooms and our Mango, Lime & Chilli Salsa.
Below are recipes for a sweet, pancake-esque matzah brei which we love at breakfast, and a savoury scramble which makes for a delicious, filling lunch or dinner which can be whisked up in minutes!
BBQ Mushrooms
These sticky, sweet barbecue mushrooms are incredibly quick and easy to make, once you have BBQ sauce in the fridge or larder. Delicious year-round, these are a great vegan choice, delicious as part of a fake-away served with chips or on a jacket potato and topped with cheese. And as the recipe below uses our Kosher for Passover BBQ Sauce, you could even throw them on our Loaded Matzah Nachos.
This sweet, sticky barbecue sauce is great on our KLP Southern-Fried Chicken Drumsticks, can be substituted into our BBQ Brisket recipe or simply served with homemade chips for a Pesach-friendly treat.
Nona’s Chicken Sofrito
Nona would make this traditional Sephardi chicken and potato stew every Pesach. As children, my siblings, my cousins and I would ask for it at every opportunity, but being a meal that takes some hours to make and rarely lasted more than a handful of minutes before being utterly devoured, she’d usually reserve it for special occasions or for Shabbat and Yom Tov.
Marror Mashed Potatoes
Two questions we get asked a lot – 1) “How can I cook potatoes differently for 8 days and nights?”; and 2) “What on earth can I do with all this left over horseradish?” Answer – try confiting the horseradish with garlic to bring out its natural sweet notes, and run the beautifully flavourful infused oil through your mash. We like to top ours with a little extra fresh horseradish grated on top for the bitter heat to shine through. It’s a match made in heaven!
