Hot-spicy/10 recipes

Slow-cooked beef patties in a creamy mushroom and onion gravy. Real comfort food.

Nothing is quicker and easier than a Chinese stir-fry, agreed?! This dish took me less than half an hour to make, and it tasted wonderfully delicious. Served it over a bed of rice, and our dinner was served with tons of goodness and yumminess.

Another quick and easy way to spice up sauté of green beans. Sesame oil, ginger and a chili garlic sauce, topped with sesame seeds give haricot vert (green beans) more zing.

A quick, easy and tasty dish, and it's a perfect week-day supper.

So much better than deep frying.

Super quick and easy to make, instead of canned tomatoes, I used cherry tomatoes and made our own dressing and kept in the refrigerator for about 2 hours to let marinate; the flavor came out delicious, because of cherry tomatoes, it was more like a salad, definitely is a keeper.

A rich and decadent frittata packed with a variety of seafood.

A hearty and warm choice for those cold winter nights.

This prosciutto, fontina and sun-dried tomato tart was brilliant. The combination of these three ingredients and the buttery-crispy puff pastry was absolutely delicious!

This cheesy and moist tomato quick bread is made with whole wheat flour, mozzarella, parmesan cheese and tomatoes. It's packed with flavor and very easy to make.

Something about bacon goes so well with spinach. Using a hot bacon dressing wilts the spinach just the perfect amount, not rubbery and not too mushy and packed with flavor.

This salad's presentation is quite lovely. The citrus vinaigrette is top notch and we use the leftovers for other vegetables. The combination of orange, lemon, lime and grapefruit really kick it up a notch. If you really want to impress your guests and blow them away with sophistication this is sure to wow them. Or just make the dressing and use it for other dishes and turn any ordinary vegetable into something special.

So yummy.

Simply delicious. If you use canned beans, it only takes you about 10 minutes, a tasty and flavorful salad is ready. Have it as a side dish or a nutritious main dish.
