Kulish

A hearty Ukrainian Cossack soup of millet cooked with salo and onion, somewhere between a soup and a porridge. Potatoes, carrot, and herbs round it out; rendered salo and golden onion give it its deep, smoky-savoury character. It is served hot with dill and cracklings.

Baked Carp in Sour Cream (Ukrainian)

Baked carp in sour cream is a Ukrainian classic: a whole fish coated in a garlicky sour-cream layer on a bed of onions. Diagonal slashes along the sides let the sour cream and heat reach inside and soften the fine bones. The foil is left open on top so the skin browns while the flesh stays moist.

Zharkoe (Russian Beef and Potato Stew)

Zharkoe is a Russian stew of braised beef and potatoes in a thick gravy. The meat is browned first, then slowly simmered with onion and carrot until tender, and the potatoes go in only near the end. A spoonful of sour cream and fresh dill soften the gravy — hearty home cooking, best of all from a clay pot.

Grilled Trout in Pomegranate (Georgian Kalmakhi)

Kalmakhi is grilled mountain trout under a pomegranate glaze, one of Georgia's oldest dishes. The fish is grilled whole until the skin is crisp, then dressed with reduced pomegranate juice and scattered with raw onion, cilantro, and pomegranate seeds. The sweet-tart pomegranate sets off the rich, tender trout — simple and bright.

Grechka with Mushrooms (Russian Buckwheat)

Grechka with mushrooms is a classic Russian dish of toasted buckwheat with sautéed mushrooms and onions. Toasting the groats and not stirring them as they cook keeps the grains fluffy and separate rather than sticky. The mushrooms are dry-fried for deep flavor, then folded through. It's a hearty, naturally gluten-free dish and a staple of Lenten cooking.

Perlovka with Beef (Russian Pearl Barley)

Perlovka with beef is a hearty Russian one-pot of pearl barley simmered with browned meat, onions, and carrots — cooked much like a plov. Soaking the barley first is the secret to plump, separate grains instead of a tough, chewy mess. It's a filling, high-protein dish that long made pearl barley a Soviet kitchen staple.

Ají de Gallina (Peruvian Creamy Chicken)

Ají de gallina is one of Peru's most cherished comfort dishes — shredded poached chicken folded into a velvety golden sauce built on ají amarillo, the fruity yellow chili at the heart of Peruvian cooking. Milk-soaked bread and ground walnuts thicken it, while parmesan adds a salty, umami edge. Mildly spicy and rich, it's spooned over rice with boiled yellow potatoes, olives, and hard-boiled egg — a fusion of Spanish and Andean roots.

Fish and Seafood Dishes

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.

Doro Wat (Ethiopian Spiced Chicken Stew)

Doro wat is Ethiopia's national dish — a deep red, intensely spiced chicken stew built on a foundation of onions cooked down slowly until they melt into a rich paste. Fiery berbere and aromatic niter kibbeh, a spiced clarified butter, give it heat and depth, while whole hard-boiled eggs simmer in the sauce to soak up flavour. Slow-cooked and celebratory, it's traditionally scooped up with injera, the tangy teff flatbread, in a shared communal meal.

Hainanese Chicken Rice (Singapore-Style)

Hainanese chicken rice is one of Singapore's national dishes, deceptively simple and quietly luxurious. A whole chicken is gently poached below a simmer until silky and just cooked, then plunged into ice for a jelly-set skin. The rice is fried in chicken fat with garlic and ginger and cooked in the poaching broth, so every grain is savoury and glossy. It's served with a trio of sauces — fiery chili-lime, ginger-scallion oil, and dark sweet soy — and a bowl of the clear broth.

Sisig (Filipino Sizzling Pork)

Sisig is the Philippines' most famous sizzling dish — a bold, addictive tangle of crisp-edged chopped pork and chicken liver, brightened with calamansi, sharpened with raw onion and bird's eye chili, and served screaming hot on a cast-iron plate, often crowned with a raw egg stirred through at the table. Born in Pampanga as a way to use every part of the pig, it's sour, savoury, fatty, and spicy all at once — the ultimate pulutan to eat with cold beer and rice.
