Recipes
Caramel Tiramisù
Tiramisù is a rich layered Italian dessert made with Savoiardi (ladyfinger biscuits), strong espresso and Mascarpone cheese. This is my caramel version and contains no eggs.
Rum Truffles
The easiest rum balls recipe you can make. Only 4 ingredients but absolutely tasty.
Kusksu l-Forn (baked kusksu)
Kusksu is a traditional Maltese soup made with fava beans, Gozo 'ġbejniet' and pasta beads or 'kusksu' pasta. My Ch-eat here is turning this delicious soup into a baked casserole. I can assure you that the result is absolutely delicious. Ideally use fresh fava beans when they are in season but frozen or canned can work just fine too.
Mixed Berry Cobbler, with Hazelnuts and Maltese Honey
This quick and easy mixed berry cobbler recipe is one of my favourites. It has this crunchy yet cakey texture and so quick and easy to make. Combine it with some vanilla ice cream and you have an irresistible dessert!
Pudina tan-Nanna
Pudina tal-ħobż (bread pudding) must be one of Malta's favourite treats. This recipe will give you one of the moistest puddings you've ever made.
Ġbejniċelli
Only 3 ingredients. Wheater air-fried, deep-fried or baked, these are a delicious snack, or good for nibbling while watching your favourite series.
Imqaret Orjentali
Not exactly an Asian variation but a 'cheat' on the Maltese Traditional Imqaret using wonton wrappers instead of the traditional dough. This makes them lighter and crispier.
Beer-Braised Meatless Sausages
October is synonymous with beer and sausages. These vegetarian-friendly sausages are simply braised in beer with onion, mushrooms and fresh thyme.
Kit Kat Bones
Although they look similar this is a 'cheat' on the traditional November Bones. Filled with everyone's favourite Kit Kat and Maltesers, it is an alternative for those who don't like the traditional filling.
Maltese Sausage and Beer Gumbo
This is Ch-Eat's 'Maltese' take on this delicious Louisianan dish. The secret of this delicious dish is the roux we make as a base. This is one of those stews that the more you cook it, the better it gets. It's even more delicious if you reheat it the day after.
Vegetarian Cabbage Balls
'Meat' and rice filled cabbage balls served with a simple basil sauce.
Pasta and Meatball Pearls
Pasta shells filled with creamy ricotta and crispy meatballs on a basil tomato sauce topped with mozzarella cheese.
Bajtra Rolls
Buttered cinnamon rolls filled with juicy sweet prickly pears (Bajtar tax-Xewk)
Leftover Chicken Burgers
Do you love mayonnaise with burgers? Now try using it with your patty mix. It's a game-changer! Using leftover chicken and served with cranberry sauce these babies are also perfect for BBQs
Leftover Bread, Banana And Jam Muffins
Never throw away bread. Use it for making croutons, pudding, or muffins! The secret ingredient (or cheat) here is that we are substituting eggs and oil with mayonnaise. Making them super moist!
