It may be unusual to you, but to me I grew up eating Okra. I actually went through a mad phase of demanding my Mum to cook it once a week for me (is that weird?). My brother however is not a fan! I like to discover new ingredients whenever I can, otherwise I would…

The Comforts of Baking
I have to admit it, I have the baking bug. If everything I wanted to make wasn’t made from butter, cream or sugar, I would most likely bake everyday. But then again if I did this, baking wouldn’t be such a treat. The nation has gone baking mad, with the rising popularity of The Great…
Chapatis!
Chapatis are a staple food in our Indian culture and is found regularly in our homes. They are so easy to make (after a bit of practice) and taste great with all different types of curries. Dipped in lentil daal or used to dive into a spicy fish or chicken curry, chapatis are delicious. I remember…
Want a healthy snack? Try crispy chickpeas!
Have you ever wanted a bit of a healthier snack than some nuts covered in salt or granola bars filled with sugar? I know I have. I discovered a few recipes on roasting chickpeas in the oven. So I decided to give it a go! I simply drained a can of chickpeas and patted them…

Fresh bread…what’s not to love?
I don’t know about you but I can’t seem to resist fresh bread. If you bring a fresh loaf of crusty bread to my house it will not last long. Warmed through in the oven to crisp up the crust and steam the soft centre and then slathered with butter. And hearing that crunch when…
Do you like to eat fresh?
I’ve been doing some photography for The Brasserie at Milton Keynes College and the food they make is amazing…and it’s made by students! These guys have serious talent, you should check them out. Recently I took some pictures of their summer produce and I loved it. The smell of fresh ingredients gets me so excited,…
London…is it the land of opportunity?
I love London. I went there this weekend and I came back with a greater love for the hustle and bustle lifestyle of London. Granted my small legs are not made for the never ending steps in the underground, but other than that it’s great! I came across people who were friendly and would happily…
