Who is enjoying Wimbledon this year? I absolutely love watching Wimbledon. I have followed it for years as my Dad got me interested in it and I became more and more hooked. We used to sit for long afternoons eating popcorn and watching nervously as the contestants battled it out. I love how professional the…

Greek Lamb Burger with Chilli Halloumi
Hello everyone 🙂 I hope you’re all well! I’ve been a little MIA recently. Truth is I’ve been super busy at work (which I’m very grateful for) and decided to take a little break. My family and I managed to go on our first holiday to Crete a couple of weeks ago. With all the…
Puris and Masala Eggs
This is possibly one of my favourite breakfast dishes. One however, that I don’t get to eat often as it was always something that either my Mum, grandma or aunt made. It’s a typical Sunday morning breakfast eaten with all the family. I always talk about how food can bring back nostalgic memories and puris…
Chicken and Vegetable Gyozas
Hello lovely readers. How are you all? Is it just me or are you also surprised that it’s May already? I know I am. As everyone seems to be getting busier this time of year, a quick meal is music to my ears. Sometimes we just need something fast but doesn’t compromise on flavour. Chicken…
Hot Cross Buns – Happy Easter!
Happy Easter to all those celebrating 🙂 What do you have planned this weekend? I realise it’s been a little while since I’ve posted on here. What can I say, keeping up with social media amongst work and home life is tough. I try my best to be present on social media but sometimes it…

Cherry, Hazelnut and Nutella Pancakes
Happy Pancake Day! I’ve been writing pancake day posts on my blog for a few years now and I seem to always mention that I love English pancakes. And it’s still true, I do! What’s not to love? Thin pancakes that are soft in the middle and a little crispy on the edges, ready for…
Dishoom’s Akuri – Spiced Scrambled Eggs
Who doesn’t love scrambled eggs? They are quick, healthy and easy to prepare. Plus they are so versatile. My go to recipe is simple scrambled eggs on toast with a splash of hot sauce. I was flicking through my beautiful recipe book from Dishoom and came across their spiced scrambled eggs recipe – a dish…
Aloo and Spinach Paratha
There’s something quite special about comfort food and how it can take you back to a certain time in your life. It can spark the fondest of memories and transport you back to a happy place. To me, food can awaken the senses; the smell, the taste and the sight of a dish can ignite…
Chinese Dumplings
It’s Chinese New Year (or Lunar New Year) today so I thought why not make some Chinese dumplings to go with it? After all there’s nothing more delicious than a dumpling is there? A hot, steamy little parcel filled with delicious and fragrant goodness. I could eat them all day long. Whether fried, steamed or…
