I recently got to indulge in one of my favourite pastimes that I have not been able to partake in for a while. I watched a cooking program! Between the 2 sets of twins and work and my constantly messy house I don’t this very often anymore, but lucky I watched Saturday Kitchen when Vivek […]
I never hear my family and friends speak more fondly of any fish more than a Samak Singari eaten quite literally on the shores of the Mediterranean Sea. My husband’s favourite seafood ‘restaurant’ was one right next to the wharf, on the sand with plastic chairs and table but OOH the food was incredible. I […]
I found this recipe in Delicious magazine this month and I just had to try it out. I almost tried it before I was even fasting! It was easy to prepare taking minutes to make the marinade. THe marinade itself really infused the fish with flavour. I got hubby to fire up the bbq to […]

Jambalaya is the Creole word for mess, and this recipe is a delicious mess! Flavoursome because of the spices and vegetables used, its a quick and easy seafood dish. When not observing a vegan and seafood fast, this dish is heightened by the addition of fresh chorizo sausages and chicken along with the prawns. I […]
Sometimes we have time for a thought out gourmet meal and sometimes we need a quick dinner when you have to use what you have in the fridge/pantry. I love frozen prawns ’cause they last a long time in the freezer and they cook super quick! A perfect throw together meal for a weeknight 🙂 […]
