The Best of Local Produce – Spaghetti al Pomodoro

August 9, 2026 by Christian Gott Leave a Comment

Cooking this dish was a revelation. Cooking at a low temperature helps keep all the flavours in the sauce. However, it will take a little time, and please don’t try to rush it, as your kitchen will be filled with the most delicious, hunger-inducing aromas. Be patient; it’s absolutely worth the wait

Ensalada Campera – Spanish Country Salad

August 1, 2026 by Christian Gott Leave a Comment

The Spanish Country Salad is a mix of cooked and fresh vegetables mixed with a vinaigrette and garnished with chopped boiled egg. It is usually served as a first course or tapas. Although I think it is substantial and tasty enough to be a great main course.

My Tomato Carpaccio

June 13, 2026 by Christian Gott Leave a Comment

I love the combination of the sweet, ripe tomatoes with anchovies, capers, Parmesan and a little red onion. It is an umami-laden flavour bomb perfect as a summer starter or light lunch served with some crusty bread.
