Spinach, mushroom and goat cheese toast

There’s something timeless about a tartine – a rustic slice of golden, toasted sourdough bread topped with simple yet vibrant ingredients. Just three ingredients have the power to create flavours that are earthy, tangy and satisfyingly rich.

COOK 10 minutes

  • 4 slices of sourdough
  • 1tbsp light olive oil, plus extra for brushing
  • 150g white button mushrooms, sliced
  • 300g fresh spinach
  • Pinch of pink Himalayan salt
  • 3tbsp crumbled goat cheese

 

METHOD

  1. Brush the sourdough slices with olive oil and toast for 5-6 minutes. Remove and set aside.

Samkeh Harra (fish with tahini sauce and nuts)

‘Fish doesn’t have to be boring—my mother taught me that. Samkeh harra translates to “spicy fish,” though it’s more about a gentle kick than true heat. It’s a perfect balance of creamy, nutty tahini and the crunch of golden, roasted nuts. Oh, I do love nuts! I usually overload my plate so you almost can’t see the fish anymore, but that’s me. The nuts bring a deep, toasty richness that elevates the dish into something truly irresistible.’

French onion steak bites with blue cheese wedges

To me, the perfect steakhouse meal involves French Onion Soup, a sizzling buttery steak, and a crisp wedge salad, so this is like all of those flavours in one much more affordable weeknight dinner.
