Everyone loves a classic dish, and we’re no different here at Dinnertime Somewhere. We love the traditional dishes that have stood up to the test of time. That have transcended trends and still to this day remain popular the world over
We’re serving up four of our favorite Classic Hearty Recipes this week that we’re sure you’ll love cooking and eating. These dishes are fun, vibrant, easy to make, and most importantly of all – tasty! So, lets jump into this meal plan dedicated to delicious, Classic recipes!
One of life’s best experiences is eating a bowl of warm, Tomato Soup
Making your own Homemade Soup is such a rewarding and enjoyable experience, and this recipe is absolutely no exception. The amount of Tomato flavor this Soup produces is phenomenal. You’ll never want to waste your money on the canned stuff ever again!
We roast an assortment of Tomatoes of different shapes and sizes until they caramelize and slightly char. They’re peeled, then blitzed alongside sweet Roasted Garlic and Onions before being cooked with some beautiful homemade Vegetable Broth. We finish the Soup off with a bit of luxury by adding some Heavy Cream for the ultimate Homemade Tomato Soup. Truly worth of our Classic Hearty Recipe list!
Healthy Dish – Creamy Tomato Soup
Char-roasted assortment of Tomatoes along with Garlic and Onion form the base for this brilliantly flavored Soup. It’s so fresh and vibrant, and it tastes amazing
Classic French cooking meets traditional Chinese cuisine with this Fun and Interesting Dish
We’re going all-out with this amazing dish of Braised Beef with Noodles. Every element of this dish is meticulously crafted for the ultimate in taste and texture. This recipe follows traditional cooking techniques from France and China to create a fusion dish of cuisines that is still Classical in its flavors
We use Beef Short Ribs and slowly braise them in a decadent liquid of Red Wine and Beef Broth for 3 hours until the Beef is melt-in-your-mouth tender. The Noodles are made using the traditional Chinese method of hand-pulling them, which results in an amazing, slightly chewy texture
The combination of these two ingredients paired together is amazing. We highly recommend saving this dish for the weekend. Take your time making the dish and then devour it in minutes. Hopefully you’ll be able to save some room for dessert

Another Classic dish from Europe that has been around forever is the delicious Chocolate Swiss Roll Cake. A beautiful chocolate sponge cake that has been filled to the brim with whipped cream. We then Roll the cake up and smother it in dark chocolate Ganache

When it comes to amazing classic dishes you can make using leftovers, this one may very well be at the tippity top. We’re talking about our world famous Ultimate Grilled Cheese Sandwich!
