This sea bass recipe uses an easy and crowd-pleasing technique (and by crowd, I mean my wife). Whenever I can't decide on what to do with a piece of fish, I usually opt for this method, which involves roasting the fillets after they have been slathered in a highly seasoned vinaigrette.

Cassoulet recipes take a lot of time and ingredients (some are hard to find) and use a lot of pots and pans. So why make cassoulet? That's easy; it's one of the most delicious dishes you'll ever have. Plus, it's great for honing your observational skills, since no two cassoulets are the same.
