Lavangi (Azerbaijani Walnut-Stuffed Fish)

Lavangi is an Azerbaijani fish stuffed with a paste of walnuts, onion, and sour plums with narsharab. The grated onion must be squeezed dry, or the filling turns watery. The fish is stuffed, sewn shut, rubbed with narsharab, and baked until the skin is dark and glossy. It's a festive Talysh and Lankaran dish, a classic of the Novruz table.

Moqueca Baiana (Brazilian Fish and Shrimp Stew)

Moqueca Baiana is Bahia's iconic seafood stew — firm white fish and shrimp simmered gently in coconut milk with tomatoes, peppers, onion, and lime, finished with dendê, the red palm oil that gives the dish its glowing orange colour and nutty, faintly smoky depth. Born from Indigenous, African, and Portuguese roots, it's layered rather than stirred and cooked low so the fish stays whole. Served over white rice, it's the soul of Brazilian coastal cooking.

One-Pot Lemon Asparagus Pasta with Shrimp

One-Pot Lemon Asparagus Pasta with Shrimp

Pasta cooked directly in broth with lemon, garlic and white wine, so the starch that normally washes down the drain becomes the sauce. Asparagus and shrimp go in at the very end — two minutes, no more — so they stay bright and barely cooked. The whole thing comes together in one pan in half an hour. Works just as well with salmon or scallops if shrimp isn't your thing.

Pulpo a la Gallega (Galician Octopus with Potatoes)

Pulpo a la gallega is Galicia's most famous dish and one of the simplest in Spanish cooking — tender slices of boiled octopus laid over soft potatoes on a wooden plate, then finished with nothing but coarse salt, smoked paprika, and a generous stream of olive oil. There's no sauce and nowhere to hide, so everything rests on cooking the octopus to exactly the right point and using paprika and oil worth tasting on their own.
