Parmesan Risotto
It wouldn’t be an Elton John recipe collection without risotto, the singer’s all-time favorite food. Elton John loves risotto so much, actually, that he sent his personal chef to Italy to learn from the best. While we can’t go to quite those lengths, this authentic Italian risotto brings the classic home.

Tenderloin Steak Diane
The third course of Elton John’s Oscar party was his personal chef’s marinated and seared beef tenderloin. We paired ours with butter and mushrooms, similar to the savory pairing of Elton’s amaranth and charcoal oil.

Apple Tart
According to his chef, Elton John appreciates good food—savory and sweet! The dessert course of his dinner parties sometimes features an apple tart like this, paired with orange creme fraiche and caramel syrup.

Flank Steak
Elton John has such good taste that Ed Sheeran once asked him for dinner recommendations in Venice. He chose a family-run restaurant that boasted a simple yet delicious cut of steak.

Fish With Mango Salsa
Elton John likes to serve his guests fish, often with a creative sauce or fruity side. This salmon with mango salsa is our home-grown twist on his Hamachi (a Pacific yellowtail fish, if you’re curious) with mango relish and chive oil.
