Another of Grandma's recipes.

Boneless beef short ribs, slow braised in a small crockpot (or pot if desired) perfectly sized for two servings.

This slaw is a great side dish with burgers, pulled pork, BBQ, or any succulent meaty dishes. Loved the dilled pickles in the slaw and the pickled juice in the dressing, which really accomplish the flavor. It's refreshing, and also very low in calories and fat.

These roasted almonds are tasty and crunchy, all the seasonings and brown sugar add the amazing flavor to the almonds. Good snack or when you have guests to come, it will satisfy everyone.

This recipe comes from Italy by way of Argentina. Maxwell Mowry of Charleston got this recipe when he lived in Buenos Aires in the early l970s. Since there are more people of Italian ancestry in Argentina than of Spanish ancestry, it is not surprising to find panettone there, where it is called in Spanish pan dulce, meaning 'sweet bread.' At Christmas in Argentina, pan dulce is eaten accompanied by sparkling apple cider. Houseware shops in Argentina sell special tall cylindrical springform pans to bake the pan dulce, but an empty, greased 1-pound coffee can may be used.

Learn how to make Tortilla Espanola, a Spanish Omelet. In Spain, a tortilla isn't the cornmeal flatbread we think of but a sort of omelet loaded with onions and potatoes. This is a popular item at tapas bars and an easy dinner to make after an evening of celebrating.

A traditional Portuguese recipe. Salt cod (bacalhau) and potatoes fried to perfection. FANTASTIC!

Spanish style eggs flavored with Chorizo and harissa, tomatoes, roasted red peppers and green olives. Bursts of flavor in every bite.

A delicious and succulent dish that will have you and your friends licking your lips and fingers!

Spanish spiced chicken breast with fresh avocado, orange dressed boston lettuce.

Absolutely worth the effort of preparation. The chicken tasted so delicious and packed with flavor. No need to order take-out from now on. This homemade tandoori chicken is as yummy as the restaurant one.

An Indian inspired recipe is full of flavor, a great side dish with some grilled meat.

We really love spanish omelettes because they’re super tasty, healthy and really quick and easy to make. Traditional Spanish omelettes are made using potatoes. We’ve decided to mix things up a little bit with this version and substitute the potatoes for parsnips, so it’s a great nutritious recipe for someone who wants to cut back on carbohydrates. If you’d prefer to still use potatoes, you can still use this recipe and swap the parsnip for one potato or one sweet potato. This makes a delicious and nutritious breakfast or light lunch recipe.

Sheila made this Mandarin Cake this morning to take to our Paella lunch with Spanish friends. They go crazy for it.

Superb dish. I added Chinese veggies mix which contained bean sprouts, sherry was Spanish. Noodles were originally Chinese. Thanks very much, a photo is attached.

I cook sorrel soup every spring year by year because of the unique sour flavor. I usually make it on the base of long simmered veal bones. This spring the process of cooking was shortened by using Spanish chorizo. No regret.
