Flourless Chocolate Orange Cake - Nigella


I made a few flourless recipes from Nigella, last year.  When I came upon her flourless chocolate lime cake, I jumped to make it.  I did change the lime to orange to ensure, we would like it.  I can see this being made with a tinge of any of the citrus flavors.  I suggest being heavy on the zest, if you like the flavor.  This recipe uses almond flour which you can get by finely processing almonds. 

This month, Forever Nigella is using the theme, “Seduced by Chocolate”, and the deadline is February 20th.  You can still get a recipe in, if you would like.  

This recipe was easy to make, melt, beat, mix, pour, bake, unmold and take out a plate to serve it on.  EAT!!!!!  You will find this in Nigella's new book, Nigella Kitchen.

You can find this recipe at Nigella's home.

    I am yet to try this flourless cake but I can see it's incredibly popular. It looks very tempting with a blob of cream on it. Thank you for taking part in Forever Nigella!

    I love the chocolate - orange combination in chocolate bars but never thought about making it into cake. I can only imagine how sinfully delicious this is. :)

    I'm a big fan of Nigella's flourless creations. I particularly like her clementine cake, and also use her brownie recipe. Thanks for sharing with the Hearth and Soul hop.

    Choc orange and choc lime both sound lovely...especially with such a generous helping of cream.

Thai Chicken San Choy Bau

It says, "thai" so I have to like the Thai Chicken San Choy Bau that we are making this week in our Donna Hay Wednesday group.  It was a bit spicy and the chopped chicken was a nice change of pace. Kayte selected this recipe from On the Shelf on page 124.   I tried it with the greens and it was very good and then I put it on spaghetti and it was spectacular.  My toddler granddaughter even liked it.  Must have been the hot sauce. I used romaine for the greens and I subbed in red pepper and added some Sirracha to spice it up to make up for the real chilis. Do check out the other cooks' dishes at our   Wednesday with Donna Hay site.

Brussels Sprouts - Power Food - Re-post

Another week, another vegetable for our Power Food group, a bunch of women who strive for healthy eating with the most delicious dishes. Each blog is inspiration . Each week, we choose a recipe based on the power food which comes from the book, Power Foods, 150 delicious recipes with the 38 healthiest ingredients from the editors of Whole Living magazine. Brussels sprouts like broccoli and cabbage are cruciferous. This group offers a unique composition of antioxidants that may provide several health benefits. Brussels sprouts are low in calories and offer protein, vitamins and minerals to help build a healthy human. My first issue with brussels sprouts is that it took me years to spell it correctly. Each time, it came up, in writing, and I admit, that was not too often, I would stare into space asking myself does brussel get an S, at the end or is it sprout that gets the S. For some reason, I could not remember that both end with that S. I am happy to tell you, I overcame thi...

Carrot Cake _ Power Food - repost

Another week, another vegetable for our Power Food group, a bunch of women who strive for healthy eating with the most delicious dishes. Each blog is inspiration . Each week, we choose a recipe based on the power food which comes from the book, Power Foods, 150 delicious recipes with the 38 healthiest ingredients from the editors of Whole Living magazine. That week, we concentrated on carrots. I like to check out our vegetable, not only for health benefits, but also for the names of their sisters. Carrots are related to parsnips, fennel, parsley, anise, caraway, cumin and dill. I didn't have a clue about many of these. I, have never seen carrots of other colors or at least, if I had, I didn't know, they were carrots. I am going to a good produce store, looking for purple or red carrots, to start my search. It is fun, shopping when purposely looking for new vegetables. I have definitely expanded my horizons. When, I was thinking about what to make with carrots, I ...
