Baker, cookbook author and former contestant on "The Great British Baking Show", Crystelle Pereira is stopping by the TODAY kitchen to share a couple of her favorite fun and flavorful entertaining recipes. She shows us how to make a festive cherry and almond tart and quick, easy Goan-style chicken salad with chiles.
This is a traditional Goan recipe that is so simple to make with just a handful of ingredients, but it really packs a punch of flavor. It's such a versatile way to use up leftover chicken or turkey from the day before. The serving options are so varied that it can make for a tasty lunch, side dish or dip!
The flavors of this tart are inspired by a traditional British dessert called cherry bakewell, but this is a much lighter and more summery take on that classic — not to mention, it's also easier to make. Using store-bought puff pastry makes this recipe very approachable for all levels of home cooks. The overall flavor is fresh and not too sweet, which lets the in-season fruit shine.
If you like those summery recipes, you should also try these:
