Chocolate Orange Profiteroles

It’s that time of year again. A time for reflection and a time to sit back and enjoy ourselves with our loved ones. But it’s also an incredibly busy and somewhat stressful time too, let’s be honest! I truly do love Christmas. I love the decorations, the movies, and of course the food. I also…

Buttermilk Chicken, Waffles and a Chilli Maple Syrup

It’s December! And December is a month where we tend to indulge throughout. Christmas parties, markets and fairs lure us with temptations of sweet and savoury foods. As much as I love all the food in December, I try my best not to over indulge all month, after all I am not getting any younger….

Tebasaki Chicken Wings

I haven’t disappeared! But I’ve done it again haven’t I? I’ve been a little quiet on here recently but I have a good excuse this time, actually a great excuse! I managed to land the biggest job of my career. Read on to find out more. As you know by now, I live and breathe…

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…

Masala Lamb Steak and Okra Fries

Lamb steak is a treat for us. It’s something that feels a little special because we don’t eat it often and leaves us feeling lie we have indulged. Steak is something we normally associate with restaurants, but it is so simple to do at home too. And it’s a great date night meal! I’ve never…

Lemon Meringue Pie

It’s British Pie Week and I am here for it. Is there anything more comforting than a pie? There is something very special about pulling a hand made pie out of the oven, whether sweet or savoury, it’s simply joyous. I love a savoury pie, from the classic chicken and mushroom or my recent vegetarian…

Mussels and Fries

Mussels are in season right now and up until a few years ago I had never tried them. I was never great at trying different shellfish apart from prawns and lobster (especially after a bad experience with an oyster!) However my husband convinced me to try them one day on holiday in Canada and I…

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…

Coconut Tadka Dal (Vegan)

I am the first to admit that I can’t seem to sustain a Vegan diet for good, let alone a month! But Veganuary is a great opportunity to try and cut back on meat and dairy and the recent trend over the years has really made us think about what we eat. For me and…

About me

Welcome back! Is it a little too late in January to say happy new year? I think so. Whoops! Regardless, I hope you all had a great break over Christmas and New Years. As you may have noticed, I took a longer break than expected from blogging and social media. I decided to switch off…
