Autumn is the perfect season to enjoy comfort foods that warm our body and soul. With the changing of the leaves and the fresh air, there is nothing better than preparing recipes that make us feel at home. Here are 6 warm recipes for this autumn.

1. BAKED CHICKEN WITH APPLES AND CINNAMON

Baked chicken with apples and cinnamon is a recipe that combines sweet and savoury flavours. It is prepared by placing chicken pieces in a baking dish, accompanied by apple slices and sprinkled with cinnamon. Onion and garlic can be added to enhance the flavour.

2. MUSHROOM AND PARMESAN RISOTTO

Mushroom and Parmesan risotto is a creamy and flavourful dish. Arborio rice is cooked with a stir-fry of onion and garlic, adding sautéed mushrooms and stock a little at a time so that the rice releases its starch. Stir constantly to achieve a creamy texture.

The combination of these ingredients creates a warm, nourishing and comforting dish. Perfect to enjoy on cooler autumn days.

4. PASTA WITH CHANTERELLES AND BREADCRUMBS

This recipe makes the most of chanterelles, a seasonal mushroom. First, sauté the chanterelles with garlic and parsley until tender. Then add the cooked pasta and mix to absorb the flavours. The toasted breadcrumbs add a crunchy and tasty touch to the dish. Finally, season with salt, pepper and a drizzle of olive oil, creating a delicious and comforting combination for the day.

5.  CHICKEN AND POMEGRANATE SALAD
