Khalia - Georgian Beef Stew by John Spottiswood

This is the incredible, densely flavored beef stew that I enjoyed so much at a Georgian restaurant in St. Petersburg, Russia. I've been searching for this, and finally I nailed it. I had this served in a sizzling cast iron pan in Russia, and while I didn't serve it that way to my dinner guests last night, it tasted just as good.…

Spaetzle with Succulent Beef by John Spottiswood

Our good german friend Helmut Solfrank loves to cook Spaetzle. He recently returned from a summer vacation in Germany and brought us a Spaetzle maker back! It's a simple device for making this very simple, but tasty, German pasta of flour, water and oil. You want to serve it with a flavorful meat stew with lots of juice/gravy. We…

Skinny Irish Pub Beef Stew for St. Patrick’s Day by Skinny Kitchen with Nancy Fox

This peasant style stew is so hearty and perfect to make for St. Patrick’s Day. I’ve made a skinny version by using lean beef, carrots, onions and potatoes but also adding sweet potatoes.

Lite and Fabulous Steak Pizzaiola by Skinny Kitchen with Nancy Fox

This Italian classic is simply steak topped with a quick cooking, zesty, pizza-like sauce. Sometimes it’s topped with cheese. I’m using very lean top sirloin but if you’d prefer to use flank steak or skirt steak, just reduce the cooking time a bit. Doesn’t matter how you cook your filet, the sauce absolutely makes this dish. The…

Tri-tip served Gyros style by John Spottiswood

For the 4th of July this year I wanted to serve Greek style sandwiches with flat bread, tzatziki sauce, tomatoes and red onions. Given the large number of guests, kabobs would have taken forever. So I decided to marinate Tri-tip and slow cook it, then slice it Gyros style. This turned out to be really easy and was a huge hit. I…

The dish is slightly sweet and well suited to adults and children. It is very easy to make, though it takes a bit of time to cook. The recipe comes to me from my mother who received it from her sister. Serve with potatoes or pasta. It will go well with rice as well.
