Welcome to our first of hopefully many yearly wrap ups of the most popular dishes we\u2019ve shared over the year. In this article we will show you the most popular dishes of 2024 on our website. The metrics for this criteria are simple; we look at which recipes get the most number of views throughout the year! We\u2019re so thankful that we can share our cooking, and that these recipes are being enjoyed by many folks from all around the world!

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Food trends that we noticed throughout 2024<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

I know there are loads of \u2018food trends\u2019 that transcend the cooking world. Whether its viral \u2018Mac and Cheese\u2019 recipes that blow up on social media, or trends such as Caviar Bumps that seem to pop over overnight at even restaurant you go to. For us, however, we\u2019ve noticed quite different food trends from the content we produce

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The number one trend I\u2019ve noticed from our list of recipes below is there is an overwhelming appetite for \u2018brown food\u2019. That is, food that is literally brown! A lot of cooking naturally ends up this color, so that\u2019s perhaps not a huge surprise. However, brown food typically trends towards more unhealthy food, especially dishes that are deep fried

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In fact, our top 3 recipes for the year are all what you would define as brown in color. Fish and Chips, Deep Fried Cheese, and Sweet and Sour Pork. All brown, all popular, and all delicious! We do publish a lot of healthy content on this website; however, it does seem that the unhealthy stuff is what the people like!

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Below is the list of our top 10 recipes for the year, starting with number 10 which is our Crispy Skin Roast Pork, and ending with number 1: Our awesome Beer Battered Fish and Chips!

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

10. Crispy Skin Roast Pork<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

A popular type of roasting Pork in the UK that is quickly catching on in the US is Crispy Skin Roast Pork. Get your hands on a beautiful piece of Pork Butt or Pork Shoulder for this recipe, just make sure the skin is still intact. The crispy skin offers the perfect contrast to the juicy, tender Roast Pork. It\u2019s the perfect Sunday Roast for the family

9. Easy Coconut Shrimp<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"Easy<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Bars all over the world churn out this favorite appetizer, but their consistency is always questionable. Great Coconut Shrimp is amazing, but badly made versions aren\u2019t that fun to eat. Take the risk out of the equation and make perfectly crispy, flavorsome Coconut Shrimp at home with this fun and delicious recipe

8. Classic Texas Breakfast Tacos<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"Texas<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Tex-Mex is such an awesome cuisine. Taking the very best of two cultures and merging them into a unique and flavorsome style of food. This is our take on the classic Breakfast Taco, which is hugely popular in Texas towns near the Mexican border. They\u2019re super-easy to make and taste amazing. A hearty breakfast for sure, and well worth inclusion in our Most Popular Dishes of 2024!

7. Crispy Homemade French Fries<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"The<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
<\/div>\n\n\n\n

We\u2019ve tried many, many times to perfect Crispy Fries at home, and we\u2019ve finally cracked the code with this recipe. The trick is to cook the Fries twice and freeze them in between cooking. This will help reduce the moisture in the Potatoes, resulting in an amazingly crunchy French fry. It\u2019s well worth trying, as this may be one of the more challenging recipes on the list. But they are oh so tasty!

6. Decadent Potatoes au Gratin<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"Cheesy<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
<\/div>\n\n\n\n

This French Classic side dish is a favorite for so many people. It\u2019s no surprise, really, when you look at the ingredients. Potatoes, Cheese, and Cream. Combine those three ingredients together and slowly bake them until a creamy, luscious, and decadent dish emerges. It\u2019s so indulgent, yet so necessary

5. Personal Deep Dish Pizza<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"Personal<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
<\/div>\n\n\n\n

The famous Chicago Deep Dish Pizza is a favorite of ours. We don\u2019t buy into the debate of what pizza is better, NY Style or Chicago Style. Our opinion is simple. If it\u2019s pizza, we like it! This is a classic representation of the Chicago Deep Dish Pepperoni Pizza, but served as personal, individual pizzas. They\u2019re super-filling, and super-delicious

4. Japanese Pickled Radishes<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

A diamond in the rough in our list of the most popular dishes of 2024 are these wonderful Japanese Pickled Radishes. This one came about as a bit of a shock to us, as it\u2019s not the most common dish to make, and one that is remarkably healthy too! These delicious Radishes are so easy to make and add a wonderful pickle flavor to a dish \u2013 making them perfect for rich, fatty meals. Try these alongside some Japanese classics like Teriyaki Chicken or a Beef Bowl, you\u2019ll love them!

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

If we made our top recipes list for 2023 then this dish would be number 1. It\u2019s like when El Bulli or Noma drops down to #2 or #3 in the best restaurants in the world<\/a>. Sometimes you just need to give another restaurant a go, but deep down, everyone knows how good they are. This dish is a true star of our website, and one of the tastiest home cooked meals you can enjoy

2. Homemade Saganaki \u2013 Greek Fried Cheese<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"Greek<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
<\/div>\n\n\n\n

If you had told me at the start of the year that deep fried cheese would be your 2nd<\/sup> most popular recipe for the year I\u2019d say you are crazy. Well, that\u2019s exactly what has occurred! Honestly, good on you for choosing this one too. It\u2019s a classic dish in Greek cuisine that many of us enough when we go out to restaurants, but perhaps not as often at home. Give it a try, making homemade Saganaki is really easy and it\u2019s so tasty!

\"Most<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Our top dish of the year is no surprise to us. The beautiful Batter and flaky White Fish in this classic Fish and Chips recipe is a true standout dish. The photos don\u2019t even do the dish justice, as the flavors and textures are phenomenal. Our top dish of the year is best enjoyed with a very generous portion of Tartare Sauce. It\u2019s truly one of the best Fish and Chips you\u2019ll ever eat
