Sausage Cheese and Bean Slice

Swedish Cabbage Pudding | Kalpudding
This traditional Swedish dish is very simple to make - it's a layer of cabbage and onion, a layer of minced beef and pork, and another layer of cabbage topped with a sweet syrup.

Home Made Corned Beef
Corned beef means different things to different people around the world. Americans might be familiar with thick slices of pink cured meat served on rye bread in a New York deli. To us Brits, corned beef is a fairly smooth paste-like substance that comes out of weirdly-shaped cans. Irish Americans also invented the tradition of having hot sliced corned beef with cabbage and potatoes on St. Patrick's Day.

Chicken Biryani
Biryani is a luxurious rice dish, rich with aromatic spices. It may include mutton, goat, chicken or virtually any other type of protein. Vegetarian versions also exist.

Keralan Beef Curry
There are some religions in India that do not allow the eating of beef, but others do permit it and beef-eating is very common in the southern state of Kerala. This beef curry from Kerala is rich with the tang of tamarind, the fruitiness of tomatoes and the creaminess of coconut. It's just brilliant.

Cacio e Pepe | Spaghetti with Cheese and Pepper
This simple recipe only has three or four ingredients - in theory it's really simple to make, but in reality you might need to practice a few times. Don't worry though, even your failures will be delicious - spaghetti, cheese and tons of pepper - just amazing!

Ropa Vieja | Cuban Beef Stew
Ropa Vieja is a dish of shredded beef with peppers in a tomatoey saauce. At least it is in this Cuban version. It originated in the Canary Islands and is popular throughout Latin America, the Philippines and Spain. The name means 'old clothes', which is what it is supposed to look like.
