Roasted Chicken Thighs with Hasselback Potatoes

Today, I spent some time in the kitchen preparing a little something for my children, who are students, so they can start the week with homemade lunches ready to go. (If you have students far from home, check also my Students page or my Batch cooking post with lots of tips/ressources)

Chicken thighs, golden Hasselback potatoes and fragrant herbs. Simple ingredients, beautiful colours and so much flavour! I used Amandine potatoes, with fresh rosemary and thyme branches that filled the kitchen with the most wonderful aroma.

And honestly, look how beautiful they turned out! Sometimes, the simplest meals are the most satisfying, especially when they're prepared with a little extra love. To complete the lunchboxes, I also baked my Chocolate Booster, a delicious chocolate tray cake featured in my latest cookbook, Vivian Is Cooking BAKING!

Ok, Halloween has passed, but here it is a funny idea for your next year's Halloween aperitif.
I tried it for the first time a week ago at a great Halloween party of some dear friends of ours (thank you btw!!!) and everyone was excited with it!
So easy, so scary, so tasty... can you do better? ;)
With terror from me to you... BoooOOOOO

Hello October! 🍂 Autumn Recipes & Ideas from My Kitchen

Hello October! 🍁

The days are getting shorter, the evenings cooler, and suddenly we start craving warm soups, comforting dishes, cinnamon, apples and cosy baking.

October is such a lovely month in the kitchen. In France, it is the season for pumpkins and squash, leeks, cabbage, broccoli, cauliflower, mushrooms, beetroot, celery, turnips and parsnips, while apples, pears, grapes, quinces and chestnuts bring plenty of inspiration for something sweet.

So, what could we cook this month?
