How to prepare the raspberry peach sponge cake

Preheat the oven to 340°F (170°C), grease an 8-inch (20 cm) pan, and line the bottom with parchment paper. Separate the egg whites from the yolks. In a medium bowl, whisk the yolks with 1/4 cup (50g) sugar and vanilla extract until creamy and pale yellow. Gradually mix in the oil and water. Incorporate the flour and baking powder into the yolk mixture and set aside.

In a large bowl, beat the egg whites with salt until foamy. Gradually add the remaining 1/4 cup sugar (50g) and continue mixing until soft peaks form. Gently fold a spoonful of whipped whites into the yolk mixture, then fold the yolk mixture back into the remaining whipped whites.

In a separate bowl, toss the chopped peaches and raspberries with 2 tablespoons of flour, then gently fold them into the batter. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake for 35-40 minutes, until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Allow the cake to cool for 10 minutes before removing it from the pan to cool completely on a rack.

How to prepare the peach sauce

Meanwhile, prepare the peach sauce by placing chopped peaches, sugar, and lemon juice in a small saucepan over medium heat. Bring to a boil and cook for about 15 minutes, until the peaches are tender and the sauce thickens. Set aside to cool, reserving 3 tablespoons (45g) for spreading on the sponge cake.

How to prepare the peach yogurt mousse. 

Dissolve the gelatin in cold water and let it swell for 5-10 minutes. In a large bowl, mix the yogurt with powdered sugar and the remaining peach sauce. Dissolve the gelatin over low heat and stir it into the peach yogurt mixture. In another bowl, whip the chilled cream until stiff peaks form and gently fold it into the peach yogurt mixture. Finally, fold in the fresh raspberries.

How to assemble the peach yogurt mousse cake

To assemble the cake, invert the sponge cake onto a serving platter and spread the reserved peach sauce evenly over the top. Place a cake ring around the cake and line it with an acetate sheet. Pour the peach raspberry yogurt mousse over the cake and smooth the top. Refrigerate for at least 4-6 hours or overnight.

Before serving, decorate the cake with fresh raspberries and peach slices, then dust with powdered sugar.

This Caramel Panna Cotta is a sophisticated and delicate Italian dessert that combines the creamy elegance of panna cotta with the rich, deep flavor of caramel. It is a delectable finish to any meal, whether it’s a casual dinner or a special occasion. 

This eggless and gluten-free treat begins with a simple caramel made from sugar and water, which is carefully cooked until it reaches a golden amber hue. The caramel coats the bottom and sides of the ramekins, creating a beautiful, glossy layer that will crown the dessert when inverted.

The vanilla panna cotta mixture is poured over the set caramel in the ramekins. After chilling for several hours, the panna cotta firms up to a perfectly silky texture. 

When ready to serve, invert the ramekins onto plates, revealing the delightful caramel layer now sitting atop the panna cotta. This dessert is not only delicious but also looks beautiful, especially when garnished with fresh berries and sprigs of rosemary or mint. The freshness of the berries and herbs adds a vibrant contrast to the rich, creamy caramel panna cotta. 

Caramel Panna Cotta - section

How to make Caramel Panna Cotta

Begin by preparing the caramel. Place the sugar and water in a saucepan over medium-high heat, and cook without stirring until the sugar dissolves and takes on a caramel color. Immediately divide the caramel among 4 ramekins, each with a capacity of 4-5 oz (120-150ml). Rotate the ramekins to coat the bottoms and sides with the caramel, then set them aside.

Next, prepare the panna cotta. Dissolve the gelatin in 2 tablespoons of cold water and let it swell for 5 to 10 minutes. In a medium saucepan, bring the cream, milk, sugar, salt, and vanilla to a simmer over medium-low heat, ensuring it does not boil. Once the sugar has dissolved, remove the mixture from the heat and let it cool for 5 minutes before adding the bloomed gelatin. Stir until the gelatin has completely dissolved.

Evenly divide the panna cotta mixture into the caramel-coated ramekins. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight to allow the panna cotta to set.

When ready to serve, dip each ramekin into a bowl of hot water for about 30 seconds to loosen the caramel. Run a sharp knife around the edges of the panna cotta, then invert each ramekin onto a plate. Garnish with fresh berries and sprigs of fresh rosemary or mint

How to make chocolate raspberry cake roll

In a large bowl, add eggs, vanilla, and sugar. Beat with an electric mixer until the mixture becomes lemon yellow and foamy. Add the oil and mix until well incorporated. Gradually fold in the flour mixture until fully combined.

Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and bake for about 8-10 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Sprinkle the baked cake with powdered sugar to prevent sticking, then flip it onto a kitchen towel. Carefully remove the parchment paper and roll the cake with the kitchen towel inside while it is still warm to prevent cracking. Let it cool completely.

Unroll the cooled cake and spread the raspberry cream cheese filling evenly over the cake, leaving a 1/2 inch (1 cm) border. Reserve some filling for decorating. Sprinkle fresh raspberries over the filling and roll the cake back up. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving.

This Neapolitan Ice Cream Cake combines the timeless flavors of chocolate, vanilla, and strawberry ice cream topped on a rich, fudgy brownie. Perfect for celebrations or as a refreshing treat on a warm day, this Neapolitan ice cream cake offers a delightful combination of familiar flavors in a unique and delicious presentation.

First, you need to bake e a dense, brownie layer that serves as the cake’s base. You can also consider making an Oreo crust for a no-bake dessert

Once the brownie cools, spread a layer of smooth homemade chocolate ice cream over it. After freezing the chocolate layer until slightly firm, add a refreshing layer of homemade strawberry ice cream, followed by another round of freezing. The final layer, a  creamy homemade vanilla ice cream, tops the cake, creating a visually stunning dessert.

The brownie’s deep chocolate flavor and texture perfectly balance the lightness of the ice cream layers, making each bite a delightful contrast of textures and tastes. Garnishing the cake with fresh strawberries and chocolate candies adds an extra touch of indulgence. 

How to make Neapolitan Ice Cream Cake

Start by preheating your oven to 350°F (180°C) and grease and line an 8-inch (20cm) springform pan with parchment paper.

How to prepare the cocoa brownie

In a bowl, whisk together egg and sugar until well combined, then incorporate oil and vanilla extract. Sift in the flour, salt, and cocoa powder, and whisk until fully incorporated.

Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake for 10-12 minutes until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean or with a few moist crumbs attached. Let the brownie cool completely.

How to prepare the strawberry sauce

Combine strawberries, sugar, and lemon juice in a small saucepan and place over medium heat. Bring to a boil and cook for about 5 minutes until the mixture thickens.

Remove from heat, sieve to remove seeds, and allow the sauce to cool completely.

How to prepare the chocolate ice cream layer

For the chocolate ice cream layer, whip cream in a large bowl until stiff peaks form. Mix in sweetened condensed milk, salt, and cocoa powder until well combined.

Transfer the cooled brownie onto a serving platter, place a cake ring around it, and line with an acetate sheet. Pour the chocolate ice cream mixture over the brownie, smooth the top, and freeze for 1-2 hours until slightly set.

How to prepare the strawberry ice cream layer

Whip cream in another large bowl until stiff peaks form, then blend in sweetened condensed milk and the cooled strawberry sauce.

Pour the strawberry ice cream mixture over the frozen chocolate ice cream layer, smooth the top, and freeze for another 1-2 hours until slightly set.

How to prepare the vanilla ice cream layer

For the final vanilla ice cream layer, whip cream in a large bowl until stiff peaks form. Mix in sweetened condensed milk, salt and vanilla extract until well combined.

Pour the vanilla ice cream mixture over the strawberry layer, smooth the top, and freeze for 6 hours or overnight to set completely.

Decorate the Neapolitan Ice Cream Cake

Finally, decorate the cake. Remove the cake ring and acetate sheet, then top the cake with fresh strawberries, chocolate candies or shards, and a dusting of powdered sugar.

This delightful multi-layered ice cream cake, featuring a rich cocoa brownie base and creamy layers of chocolate, strawberry, and vanilla ice cream is sure to impress at any celebration.

I love this Greek Salad, known as Horiatiki in Greece as it bursts with fresh flavors and vibrant colors. This salad, a staple of Mediterranean cuisine, highlights simplicity and quality ingredients. It’s a perfect appetizer or side dish, but it can also stand alone as a light, refreshing meal. This salad offers a delightful combination of textures and tastes, from the juicy tomatoes to the creamy feta. Every time we visit Greece, we enjoy serving this salad at their local tavernas near the sea.

Start with ripe tomatoes, sliced into juicy wedges. Combine them with crisp cucumber slices, green pepper slices and thinly sliced red onions that are offering a satisfying crunch. Add Kalamata olives to provide a briny contrast. Top with creamy block of feta cheese that is rich and slightly tangy. Sprinkle the salad with dried oregano for a touch of earthy aroma.

Drizzle extra virgin olive oil generously over the salad. Season lightly with sea salt and freshly ground black pepper, letting the natural flavors shine.

Greek salad not only delights with it refreshing flavor but also brings a piece of sunny Greece to your table. Enjoy it with crusty bread or alongside grilled meats for a complete Mediterranean experience.

How to make Greek salad

Begin by preparing the vegetables. Cut the tomatoes into wedges and the cucumber into thick moon slices. Thinly slice the red onion into rings and slice the green pepper. Add all the cut vegetables into a salad bowl along with the olives.

Season the salad with salt, pepper and a sprinkle of oregano. Drizzle extra virgin olive oil and red wine vinegar over the vegetables, then toss everything together until well coated.

Top the salad with a block of feta cheese. Drizzle the feta with olive oil and sprinkle with dried oregano for extra flavor.

This vibrant and fresh Greek salad is ready to serve. Hope you will try this refreshing salad. If you do, don’t forget to tag me in your Instagram posts or stories, so I can see your amazing results. Enjoy every bite!

These Chicken Patties are a versatile and delicious dish, that is easy to prepare and perfect for any time of the day. For these patties, I use ground chicken meat but ground turkey will be as good. I like to season them with a blend of spices and herbs to create a savory and satisfying flavor. To enhance the texture and taste I like to combine the chicken with breadcrumbs, onions, garlic and vegetables like carrots or potatoes.

We like to shape the mixture into round, flat discs and cook them in various ways, including pan-frying or baking. As a leaner alternative to beef patties, these chicken patties provide a healthier choice for those mindful of their dietary intake.

You can serve chicken patties in multiple ways, as a classic sandwich on a bun with lettuce and tomatoes, in a wrap, as a protein-rich topping for salads, or as an appetizer alongside your favorite dipping sauces. 

These chicken patties will surely become a family favorite and a staple in many households.

How to make chicken patties

To make these delicious chicken patties, begin by placing ground meat into a large bowl and adding finely chopped onion, minced garlic, breadcrumbs, two eggs, grated potato and carrot, chopped fresh parsley, salt, and pepper. Next, mix everything together until well combined. Be careful not to overwork the mixture to ensure the patties stay tender.

How to pan-fry chicken patties

Heat oil in a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Take spoonfuls of the chicken mixture, flatten them slightly, and transfer to the hot skillet. Cook the patties for about 4 minutes on one side until golden and crispy. Flip and cook for another 4 minutes on the other side. Transfer the patties to paper towels to drain any excess oil.

How to bake chicken patties

For baking, preheat your oven to 400ºF (200ºC) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Place the patties on the lined baking sheet and lightly spray them with olive oil. Bake for about 25-30 minutes or until the patties are golden brown and fully cooked through.

Serve these versatile chicken patties as an appetizer with your favorite dipping sauce, or pair them with your preferred side dishes for a complete meal. Refrigerate any leftovers in an airtight container and reheat before serving.

Hope you will try these delightful chicken patties. If you do, make sure to share the photos with me on Instagram. Enjoy these flavorful and easy-to-make chicken patties at any meal!
