Easy French Toast Soldiers with Scrambled Eggs
A quick and easy French toast brunch that tastes amazing! And a recipe that calls for 0 waste. So you use the leftover egg to make scrambled eggs, which is just like the icing on the cake. Sounds like a pretty epic breakfast right? The toasted soldiers actually remind me of my childhood. My mum…
Snappper Croquettes
Hi everyone! So let me just start by saying that these snapper croquettes are a bit fiddly and they do take a bit of time. But I can assure you that it is worth it in the end because they are so damb tasty. Plus, you can make the mixture in advance and get it…
Roast Quail with Polenta
If you ever want to try something different or cook something that will get people super curious. Roast quail is a great way to go. It was very nice to cook a meat other than the usual chicken, lamb, beef and pork. I have tried cooking and eating a fair few different game birds now….
Whole Roast Duck
It was quite challenging finding a conclusion on how to go about cooking a Whole Roast Duck. I have said it once before and I will say it again. Although I have done quite a bit of research, that does not make me a duck roasting expert. I completely lost count on how many roast duck…
Grilled Halloumi Cheese with Roasted Red Peppers
So this is the second time I ever cooked halloumi cheese, and the first time I have ever experimented with it. So this was a new experience for me. What do I think of halloumi cheese you may be asking but probably not? Well, I’m going to tell you anyway. Personally, I really like it…
Classic Daiquiri

Cannelloni
Most cannelloni recipes I see on the internet are made with ricotta and cheese. Don’t get me wrong, I’m sure it’s a fantastic flavour combination. However, I decided to make a change, so I have gone for a tomato based cannelloni with a creamy minced beef filling. I remember doing this at my culinary school…
Pan fried snapper with grenobloise sauce
I’m not going to say that this is the best way to cook fish, because I’ll probably never find out everything there is to know about fish even if I tried. However, in my experience, simply just pan frying in butter is such a good way to go. when/if you go ahead and make this…
Smoked Salmon Eggs Benedict
French baguette instead of an English muffin, and smoked salmon instead of ham. This is some next level eggs Benedict action going right here. Why change the classic? To inspire some creativity. I want this blog to be about easy and quick recipes, but I also want to incorporate recipes that aren’t necessarily difficult, but…
Mojito
I think a mojito, being one of the lighter cocktails is my favourite so far. Although I do believe I have a fair bit of knowledge and “palate maturing” to gain when it comes to the world of mixology. My biggest challenge for making a recipe for the Mojito was that I saw sooooo many…
