Prep Time:20minutes mins
Cook Time:40minutes mins
Servings:4 serves

Equipment

  • 1 3 inch Heart shaped cookie cutter
  • 1 4 inch Heart shaped cookie cutter
  • 1 pastry brush
  • 1 Sheet Pan

Ingredients

  • ▢2 sheets Butter Puff Pastry thawed, but kept cold approx 18 oz (510g) 12.5″ x 10″. (32cm x 25cm)
  • ▢1 Chicken Breast diced into ½ inch cubes approx 12 oz (350g)

The Sauce

  • ▢½ tsp Chilli flakes
  • ▢½ tbsp Garlic minced
  • ▢1 tsp oregano
  • ▢¼ tsp onion powder
  • ▢2 tbsp white wine
  • ▢⅓ cup sun-dried tomatoes chopped
  • ▢⅓ cup heavy cream
  • ▢⅓ cup parmesan cheese shredded
  • ▢1 pinch salt
  • ▢1 pinch pepper

Egg wash

  • ▢2 egg yolk
  • ▢1 tbsp milk

Instructions 

  • Pan fry chicken until golden. Add chilli flakes, garlic, oregano, onion powder, and wine. Simmer for 1 min until alcohol evaporates.
  • Stir in sun-dried tomatoes, cream, parmesan, salt, and pepper. Simmer until thick (2 mins). Let cool completely (crucial so the pastry doesn’t melt!).
  • Lay one sheet of puff pastry on parchment paper.
  • Lightly press a 3-inch heart cutter onto the pastry to make 4 outlines (do not cut through the dough, these are just guides).
  • Place a heap of filling (approx. 2 tbsp) in the center of each outline. Brush a little water around the filling.
  • Place the second pastry sheet on top. Gently press down around the filling heaps to remove air pockets. Using a larger 4-inch heart cutter, center it over a mound and cut firmly through both sheets to create your sealed heart pocket. Repeat for all 4.
  • Prick a small steam vent in the center with a toothpick and brush with egg wash. Bake at 370°F (190°C) for 35–40 mins or until puffed and golden (check 20 mins in as ovens and puff pasty vary).
  • Serve warm with sour cream and chilli sauce.

Notes

  • Pastry Tip: Keep your puff pastry cold! If it starts getting sticky while you work, pop it back in the fridge for 10 minutes.
  • Cool The Filling: Make sure your chicken mixture is completely cool before spooning it onto the pastry, or you’ll end up with soggy bottoms.
  • Shortcut: In a rush? Use shredded rotisserie chicken and just toss it with the sauce ingredients.
  • Make Ahead: You can assemble these, freeze them raw on a baking sheet, then bag them up. Bake from frozen (just add 3-5 minutes to the cooking time).
  • Reheating: Air fry or oven bake leftovers to get the crunch back. The microwave will make them soft!

Heart Thumbprint Cookies

Heart Thumbprint Cookies

Looking for the sweetest Valentine’s Day treat? You might just break some hearts with these. Forget the laborious chocolate-covered strawberries (that aren’t even in season!), and make these adorable cookies instead.

Prep Time:10 mins
Total Time:35 mins
Yields:24

Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cups (180 g.) all-purpose flour
  • 6 Tbsp. unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1/2 tsp. baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp. kosher salt
  • 3/4 cup (1 1/2 sticks) unsalted butter, softened
  • 1/2 cup (100 g.) granulated sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 tsp. pure vanilla extract
  • 1/3 cup raspberry or strawberry jam

Directions

Step 1

Arrange racks in upper and lower thirds of oven; preheat to 350°. In a medium bowl, whisk flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt.

Step 2

In a large bowl, using a handheld mixer on medium-high speed (or in the large bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment), beat butter and sugar until creamy and smooth, about 2 minutes. Beat in egg and vanilla, then add dry ingredients and beat on medium-low speed until just combined.

Step 3

Using a small cookie scoop (about 1 1/2 Tbsp.), portion dough onto 2 parchment-lined baking sheets. Roll each piece into a ball, then press your pinkie into ball at a slight angle. Press your pinkie in at the opposite angle to create a heart shape. Fill each heart with a scant teaspoon of jam.

Step 4

Bake cookies, rotating sheets top to bottom halfway through, until edges feel firm to the touch and have puffed slightly, 10 to 12 minutes.

Step 5

Transfer sheets to a wire rack. Let cool 10 minutes before serving.

Notes:

To make the hearts, simply press one of your fingers (my pinky is the right size for me) into the unbaked cookie at an angle, then go in the other direction to create a “v” or heart. You can then fill your hearts with whatever type of jam you prefer. I like raspberry and strawberry, but cherry would also be so good in these, too.

These cookies don’t require any chill time, which means you can have something sweet to share with your loved ones in under an hour.

Spinach and Ricotta Zucchini Cannelloni is a lighter, fresh take on classic baked pasta. Thin slices of zucchini replace traditional noodles, wrapped around a creamy spinach and ricotta filling and baked in a rich sauce until tender and bubbly. It’s comforting, wholesome, and perfect for a flavorful dinner that feels indulgent without being heavy.

Prep Time:10minutes mins
Cook Time:30minutes mins
Servings:6 Serves

Ingredients

  • ▢2 large thick Zucchini washed and unpeeled
  • ▢14 oz can crushed tomatoes or pasta sauce of choice/Passata
  • ▢18 oz frozen spinach thawed
  • ▢18 oz Ricotta
  • ▢2 x-large eggs
  • ▢3 cloves garlic, crushed or 2 teaspoons garlic powder
  • ▢3/4 cup mozzarella cheese divided
  • ▢1 pinch salt to taste

Instructions 

  • Preheat oven to 210°C | 410°F. Prepare a shallow baking dish with half of the pasta sauce. Set aside. Using a mandolin, slice Zucchini lengthwise to create wide ribbons. Set aside.
  • Place spinach in a large bowl and squeeze out any excess liquid and discard. Mix in the ricotta, eggs, garlic and 1/2 cup of the mozzarella cheese until all ingredients are well combined. Mix through salt to taste.
  • Place two zucchini ribbons on top of each other (as pictured above); spoon 1-2 tablespoons of the ricotta mixture onto the smallest end. Roll up to form a cannelloni and place into a shallow baking dish, open end facing up. Repeat with remaining zucchini and spinach mixture. Pour the remaining sauce over the ‘cannelloni,’ and top with remaining cheese.
  • Bake in the oven for 20-30 minutes, or until the cheese is golden and bubbling and the zucchini is soft when tested with a fork or toothpick.

Notes

If you have a mandolin, the ribbons are created in seconds. But, you can create them with a cheese slicervegetable peeler or thinly sliced with a sharp knife.
