Rosewater Cake with Citrus Butter Cream
So with this rosewater cake, I didn’t want to make some super crazy, multilayered work of art. I wanted to make a cake that follows basic principles but at the same time, is still very well baked. So if you are looking for a cake that is quick, stress-free, not complicated but regardless, a cake…
Vegetarian Roasted Cauliflower and Leek Soup
It has been a while since I have made a soup for the blog, so here we are, roasted cauliflower and leek soup. A very comforting dish but with light, subtle ingredients. And that is why I roasted the cauliflower first instead of just boiling it. I wanted to try and achieve another dynamic of…
Crumbed, Sausage and Hidden Veggie Pasta
Ok folks, this post is about feeding the kids. Now I am not a parent, I think I am just a bit too young at this stage. But whenever I see parents trying to feed their kids healthy food, and their response to that is “ewwwww I don’t like vegetables and green food”, it doesn’t take a…
Epic Crouton, Walnut, Halloumi and Crispy Chorizo Salad
This chorizo salad has some cool elements and I am super excited to share them with you today. Just about anything with chorizo in it is a winner for me.

Mothers Day Creamy and Cheesy Scrambled Eggs
This post is all about giving Mum a great start on Mothers day. And we are going to do this with good, humble food. I don’t think anyone can dislike waking up to well cooked scrambled eggs in the morning. Or having them as an awesome brunch. Many of us believe that scrambled eggs are…
Spiced Oven Baked Chips with Chili Mayo
Today, I have brought a simple recipe to your attention. These oven baked chips are great to have as a side with a burger, salad, wrap etc. And since they are baked instead of fried, they are a healthier option. You definitely don’t wan’t to make a recipe like this complex. However, you do want to…
Teriyaki Prawn Skewers with Pearl Cous Cous Salad
We all know about the classic teriyaki chicken. It is on so many menus and is incorporated in lots of recipes. So I decided to be a bit experimental with that delicious teriyaki marinade and expand it’s use in my own way. Both the teriyaki prawn skewers and the salad are 2 great, low stress…
Cajun Chicken with Quinoa
First of all, I hope you all had an amazing Easter. I know I did, because I completely spoiled myself with food! And I am going to take a wild guess and assume you did too. The festive food, the chocolate, whatever it may have been, perhaps it is time to make a balance after…

Bagel Burger with Fennel and Smoked trout
First of all, a bagel with cream cheese is awesome don’t get me wrong. That with a good cup of coffee in the morning is a winner. But a while ago, I was having a bagel from the coffee shop and I thought “there could be so much more in this bagel. So why not…
Seared Scallops and Fresh Salsa on Crushed Potatoes
Seared scallops, the two reasons why I believe that people don’t cook them in their homes often is because they usually aren’t all that cheap. You can buy them frozen as a cheaper alternative then defrost them, but fresh scallops are obviously much better quality. Also, people tend to get intimidated when it comes to cooking…
Sirloin Steak with Chimichurri Sauce
I am cooking steak with Chimichurri sauce today because I want to embrace some South American cuisine on my blog (as Chimichurri originated form Argentina) that is very basic. Wow, how has it taken me this long to do a simple steak recipe. Well, it’s about time. Steak is not something we should have everyday….
Butter and Honey Glazed Baby Carrots
As of recently I have had an aspiration to use baby vegetables more often, and I just hope they start getting introduced to local supermarkets more often. They hold so much flavor, they are aesthetically pleasing and they cook much quicker than regular veg. Many people actually eat baby vegetables raw, however there are a…
