Ratatouille Tarte Tatin Recipe
Imagine the perfect Summer. It is sunny and warm, but not too hot. You go for a walk, people are outside seating on benches enjoying the weather or sharing a drink and a chat with friends at a cafe's outdoor table. You might even sit on one of those benches and read a book, or join some of your own friends at one those cafes. You come back home and might grill some meat and vegetables on the barbecue, prepare a delicious salad for a dinner al fresco and pour yourself a glass of cold white wine. Or you could stew a delicious ratatouille and the smells of tomatoes, onions, garlic, peppers, aubergines, courgettes and fresh herbs will just invade your whole kitchen and home. It will just be wonderful!
And now, imagine if the said ratatouille is accompanied by goats cheese and encased in a delicious buttery and herby crust. What could be more perfect?!

Cherry and chocolate clafoutis

Cherry and Chocolate Clafoutis Recipe
It's cherry season!
Look at all the delicious cherries popping out everywhere in shops and markets, so beautiful!
And when I see cherries, I inevitably think of my favourite cherry dessert: le clafoutis aux cerises. My grandmother used to make the best cherry clafoutis I have ever eaten (I have mentioned before what a great cook she was). It was funny how every time she would be baking it during the Summer, you could see my cousins suddenly arriving for a visit, like if they could smell it from the other side of town. It was definitely a favourite thing for all of us!
This delicious dessert originates from the Limousin region in France. It is traditionally made with dark cherries but you can use other fruits too (apples, plums, peaches, blackberries, etc.). If you are a cherry clafoutis purist, you will cook the cherries with their pits in. It releases a wonderful flavour, and for me it makes this dessert incredible.
