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 […]
I have been experimenting with chicken cacciatore recipes for about 7 years now, and they have always disappointed. You see what I am trying to emulate is the chicken cacciatore that was made at the Hilton lunch buffet where I grew up – I could never get enough of it. Each recipe I tried had […]
As I have said in my earlier post, coriander is my all time favourite herb and this pesto is one of my favourite ways to enjoy it. It is zesty, garlicky, lemony and the chilli flakes add an incredible zing that make you want to bathe your tastebuds in it. This stuff is soooooo good, […]
Coriander is my most used and favourite herb. I love the zest that only fresh coriander can provide, whether it’s in a mexican dish, a salad or an indian curry. When i first heard about the idea of an indian style pesto, I was immediately intrigued, and when I tried it out myself I immediately […]
I love a good risotto. In this one, the earthy mushroom flavour is a perfect foil for the tangy saltiness of the blue cheese. The addition of cream tempers the blue cheese down to make it milder and easier to enjoy. I served this alongside a beautiful marinated chicken schnitzel! I hope that you enjoy […]
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 🙂 […]
Nothing thrills me more than when a recipe turns out both delicious and easy and fast to make. This prawn pasta recipe is nothing less than a taste sensation in your mouth. The Lemon lifts this dish so much and makes it fresh and vivid, there is a tiny hint of chilli, the basil of […]
Nothing stresses me out more than not knowing what to cook! While I love to pour through recipe books – I find that exactly like dress shopping, when you aren’t looking for something there are a million things you would make but when you need to decide on what to cook that evening nothing looks […]
I’ve never made a pork roast before, in fact we dont really eat that much pork in our house outside cold cuts like ham and mortadella, I think it must be the fact that I grew up in countries where pork was not that readily available, and maybe its a cultural thing as well. Anyhoo […]
