Relish Recipes
Roast Chicken with Potatoes, Fennel & Herbes de Provence
Posted by Donna-Marie Pye on
The warm weather seems to be here with us now, and with it comes inspiration for new seasonal recipes. While you might think of this recipe as more suited to winter, it's actually an ideal spring treat. Roasting a chicken is not such a daunting task. It requires minimal prep time and you can enjoy a glass of wine while the oven does all the work.

A Right Royal Relish Coronation Quiche
Posted by Donna-Marie Pye on
Whether you are going to the Coronation (like Donna-Marie) or not, or planning on watching it on TV (or maybe not), King Charles has launched his choice of recipe for the upcoming Coronation on May 6. Chosen personally by Their Majesties, they have opted for a simple, traditional quiche to commemorate the big day.While quiche might seem more French than British, they chose it because it's a good sharing dish as the Brits are encouraged to gather after the ceremony for The Big Lunch with friends and neighbours. The Royal Family's website shared the full recipe of the dish which involves spinach, broad beans (which we refer to as fava beans), cheddar cheese and tarragon. We have substituted leeks in place of the broad beans as they are harder to find here in Canada and we've adapted some ingredients to make it a little more "Canadian recipe-friendly".
Za'atar Chicken with Lemon Yogurt
Posted by Donna-Marie Pye on
Intensely garlicky and lemony, this Middle Eastern-inspired dish gets an earthy, herbal character from za’atar, a mix of dried herbs, sumac, and sesame seeds that’s rubbed all over the boneless thighs along with garlic, olive oil, and plenty of fresh parsley. Don’t be surprised at the number of garlic cloves called for here. Grated into a puree, they melt into the chicken flesh, thoroughly perfuming it without making it overwhelmingly pungent. These thighs work best cooked on the grill for maximum blackening at the edges. But they are still excellent under the broiler—just as long as you can get a deep, smoky char on the meat.
