Did somebody say cake? It was my daughters 2nd birthday yesterday. Two years have flown past. I know everybody says they grow up quick but gosh I didn’t realise it was this quick. My little one is now the boss of the house. From the moment we wake up it’s all go, hopping from one…

Coconut, Raspberry and Hazelnut Brownies
I absolutely love to bake. There’s something very special about mixing a few ingredients, popping it in the oven and seeing it transform into something warm and delicious. I used to bake a lot but recently struggle to find the time to do so. I have been attending lots of weddings and have been eating…
It’s National Fish and Chip Day!
It’s National Fish and Chip Day! The nations favourite takeaway. Is there anything better than hot fish and chips in England? Crispy batter, flaky fish and salt and vinegar chips, delicious! As much as I like to try and make mine at home, nothing beats the local chippy. I can never recreate their fish and…
Homemade Sushi and Edamame Beans
I’ve always loved sushi but I’ve never tried making it at home. It’s something I always thought was best eaten in a restaurant or from a store. I saw this Yutaka Sushi Roll Kit in Sainsbury’s and I thought why not, it sounded like fun. This kit was brilliant. Everything was so easy and had…
Chipotle Veggie Chilli Con Carne
I absolutely love Mexican food but sometimes get a little bored with the same old combinations. This veggie chilli con carne is certainly not boring and is definitely one to try. Spicy, smokey and hearty, this chilli is made with mixed beans and vegetables and therefore super healthy too (unless you top it with too…
Asian Steamed Sea Bass
Sea bass is my absolute favourite fish. It’s so delicate and versatile. I normally pan fry fillets or oven cook a whole sea bass, but this time I decided to try something different, and oh my was it worth it. I steamed the sea bass fillets in greaseproof paper parcels and the fish came out…
Ever made Spatchcock Chicken?
Well things have certainly changed since I last wrote a blog post. I am now the proud mother of a 6 month old baby girl (hence the lack of blogging – forgive me) and now we are all in quarantine with a Coronavirus lingering around. What a strange time! There are so many things to…
Chinese Won Tons
Are you bored of seeing diet recipes all throughout January? Yes me too. There is no reason why healthy food can’t be fun and exciting to cook and eat. If you have some spare time, why not try making some Chinese won tons? If you are having friends over, they will love it! Also, they…
Sausage and egg McMuffin breakfast
On a lazy bank holiday Monday, why not try and make your own McDonalds breakfast? It’s probably healthier (kind of), cheaper and at least you know what you are eating! I’ll admit, I have had a cheeky McDonalds breakfast before and as tasty as it is, you always feel a bit guilty and sluggish afterwards….
Sri Lanka…A beautiful country :)
Who would have thought that a ‘small’ country like Sri Lanka would have so much to offer? My husband and I recently visited this beautiful island and immediately fell in love with it. The hustle and bustle of the busy roads, with street vendors on the side selling anything from fresh fruit and veg to…
