Arrabbiata Sauce: A Fiery Classic from Kitchen At Hoskins
At Kitchen At Hoskins, we believe that the heart of Italian cuisine lies in its simplicity and bold flavours. Our Arrabbiata sauce exemplifies this philosophy, showcasing the robust character of its ingredients. Traditionally originating from the region of Lazio, this sauce stands out with its fiery kick thanks to the generous addition of red chillies, balanced beautifully by the rich sweetness of ripe tomatoes and a hint of garlic.
To create the perfect Arrabbiata, we start with a base of extra virgin olive oil, gently sautéing minced garlic until fragrant. We then add juicy tomatoes, letting them simmer to develop a rich, deep flavour. The pièce de résistance is the addition of crushed red pepper flakes – just enough to awaken your senses without overwhelming the palate. A sprinkle of fresh parsley or basil at the end brings a touch of freshness, making it an ideal pairing for al dente pasta or as a vibrant dip for crusty bread.
Whether you’re creating a casual family meal or a sophisticated dinner for friends, our Arrabbiata sauce promises to add a touch of Italian warmth and zest to your table. Come and experience this fiery delight at Kitchen At Hoskins!
Air Fryer Potato Skins: Spinach and Bacon Delight
Welcome back to our culinary adventure, where today we’re elevating the humble potato skin to gourmet status! Imagine crispy, golden-skinned potatoes, perfectly air-fried to achieve that satisfying crunch, then generously loaded with a delectable mixture of sautéed spinach and crispy bacon. This delightful dish makes for the perfect snack or a sophisticated starter for your next gathering.
To begin, we’ll scoop out the insides of our prepped potatoes, leaving just enough flesh to keep them sturdy. A quick toss in olive oil, salt, and pepper before placing them in the air fryer ensures they crisp up beautifully. While the potato skins cook away to perfection, we’ll sauté fresh spinach in a dash of garlic and olive oil, adding in crumbled bacon for that smoky, savoury goodness.
Once your air-fryer has worked its magic, it’s time to fill those golden shells. A sprinkle of cheese – whether it’s sharp cheddar or a creamy mozzarella – melts beautifully over the warm filling, adding an indulgent finish. Pop them back in the air fryer for a few minutes, and you’ve got yourself the ultimate potato skin experience.
Serve hot, garnished with a dollop of sour cream or a sprinkle of fresh chives, and watch them disappear in moments. Trust us, once you try these Air Fryer Potato Skins with Spinach and Bacon, you won’t want to make them any other way!
