It’s the season for warm comforting dishes to get us through these dark cosy months. Butternut squash and pumpkins are a popular choice at this time of year.

I’ve always dreamed of celebrating Holi in India, it looks like so much fun! All I see in Bollywood movies is streets packed…

Sunday Slow Cooked Lamb Stew
Everyone loves a lazy Sunday, or at least a Sunday when you are not slaving away in the kitchen all day long. To me its a day to catch up on everything that I don’t get to do during the week and to find time to take a long walk by the canal, bake a…
The secret to super smooth Hummus!
Yes that’s right. I have the secret! Although it’s not quite a secret, as it’s all over the internet but I recently discovered a small but vital tip to smooth hummus. I often eat really smooth hummus in Turkish or Lebanese restaurants and cannot get enough of it. I love this creamy dip that goes…
