Grilled Trout in Pomegranate (Georgian Kalmakhi)

🇲🇽MexicoMedium

Meat Dishes

Enchiladas Verdes

Warm corn tortillas wrapped around tender shredded chicken and bathed in a bright, tangy tomatillo salsa. Queso fresco, cool crema, crisp radish, and onion soften the salsa's fresh green heat. Serve the enchiladas as soon as they are assembled, while the tortillas still have a little character.

Tacos al Pastor with pork shoulder, dried guajillo chiles and achiote paste — Mexico recipe

🇲🇽MexicoAdvanced

Meat Dishes

Tacos al Pastor

Tacos al pastor are thin slices of pork in a chile-and-achiote adobo, cooked beside caramelised pineapple and tucked into small corn tortillas. A trompo gives the original its moving flame and shaved edges; at home, a very hot skillet and patient batches get close where it counts. The meat needs acid, a little sweetness and real char, not a pile of wet sauce.

Lebanese Falafel with dried chickpeas, flat leaf parsley and fresh cilantro — Lebanon recipe

Vegetable and Mushroom Dishes

Lebanese Falafel

Good falafel cracks under the teeth, then gives way to a moist, coarse green centre that tastes of chickpeas, parsley and warm cumin. This Lebanese-style version starts with dried chickpeas and needs no flour or egg. Eat it straight from the fryer with tahini, pickles and warm flatbread.

Georgian Khinkali

Khinkali are large Georgian dumplings built to hold seasoned meat and its own hot broth. The dough must be sturdy enough to pleat without tearing, yet thin enough to eat around the thick top knot. They are boiled, showered with black pepper and eaten by hand while the broth is still hot.

Tom Kha Gai with chicken, coconut milk and galangal — Thailand recipe

🇹🇭ThailandMedium

Soups

Tom Kha Gai

Thailand's creamy coconut chicken soup: chicken poached in coconut milk infused with galangal, lemongrass, and kaffir lime leaf, then balanced with fish sauce and a squeeze of lime. It's the mellow, fragrant cousin of tom yum — rich rather than sharp — and its whole character comes from galangal, not ginger.

Chicken Quesadilla with flour tortillas, chicken and Monterey Jack cheese — Mexico recipe

🇲🇽MexicoMedium

Appetizers and Sandwiches

Chicken Quesadilla

Flour tortillas folded over spiced shredded chicken, peppers, and melted cheese, then toasted in a dry pan until golden and crisp. The trick to a quesadilla that doesn't leak is restraint: don't overfill it, and put cheese against both halves of the tortilla so it fuses shut into one crisp, molten package.
