Courgette, Ricotta and Dill Tart with Spelt-rye Pastry

This tart is an excellent way to use up a glut of summer courgettes. The creamy courgette and ricotta filling is especially good with the sweet, nutty spelt-rye pastry, though standard shortcrust would also work well.

Iced Coffee Sundaes
Alice Hart · NYT Cooking
This ice cream sundae is born of both Vietnamese cà phê sữa đá, or dark roast coffee dripped over condensed milk, and Italian affogato, or espresso poured over ice cream. Here, a sort of granita made with very strong coffee is layered with a sweetened cream mixture, and then doused in a chocolatey coffee syrup. It’s a relatively lengthy endeavor, but one well worth doing. The individual parts must be made ahead of time, so plan accordingly.

Seafood Paella and Saffron Aioli
Alice Hart · NYT Cooking
Whether it takes place in a city park or country meadow, the summer picnic can be a laid-back affair. Make this easy but luxurious dish earlier in the day, and keep it cool while transporting. The aioli can be made up to two days before. All this dish needs to accompany it is a green salad (choose robust leaves that won’t wilt too quickly) and perhaps a small jam jar of salad dressing. A crusty loaf wouldn’t go amiss.

Spiced Turmeric Broth with Roast Vegetables
Alice Hart · The New Vegetarian
I find this very special bowl, a fragrant curry of sorts, is the vegetarian equivalent of a chicken noodle soup, both for comfort and health benefits. Add more coconut cream or milk if you would like more of a soup-y feel; the recipe here provides more of a sauce at the base of the bowl. Curry leaves can be tricky to find fresh, but are transformative; try Asian food shops, large supermarkets and the internet.
