14. Mexican Huevos Rancheros

To really spread that Mexican flavor around, we cooked the eggs in our homemade salsa and topped it all with some red onions and cilantro. Frying the tortillas before assembling the ingredients on top of them also helped add some good texture variety to what would otherwise be a very soft dish. Get the full recipe here!

13. Italian Bucatini all’Amatriciana

If it’s spice you crave, amatriciana is where it’s at. Another favorite guanciale-based sauce with Roman origins, amatriciana gets it’s kick from ground black pepper and red pepper flakes. Crushed tomatoes, onion and garlic round out the recipe and give it plenty of flavor. Get the full recipe here!

10. Awesome Austrian Apple Strudel

8. Delectable Indian Curry

The trick to getting the right amount of depth and flavor was to first cook the spices in oil, letting that flavor fully develop before adding the meats. It adds a little extra depth of flavor and helps get just the right amount of heat. Get the full recipe here!
