Guinea fowl with orange

faraona all'arancia

These gloomy days make you want to pamper yourself with something good, so today I prepared this delicious orange guinea fowl with a nice side dish of baked red potatoes. Apart from the long cooking time the recipe is very easy and gives great satisfaction because with very few ingredients including seasonal red oranges the result is delicious.

Baked cod

From our trip to Portugal this summer I snagged a passion for cod, so I started looking for a dealer then cook it, experimenting and making my own some recipes that I begin to share with you.
