Childhood Chicken Adobo
Chicken adobo is one of my favourite childhood dishes. The ingredients used to make it create a sort of balance in your mouth that not many dishes can emulate. Eat it with piping hot white rice, there’s nothing better.
Spicy Sour Tuna Curry
Sour curry may sound bizarre, but actually the acidic elements bring brightness and a freshness to the dish that you wouldn’t normally get with a curry. With tuna coming into season in May, I wanted to share with you this delicious and quick recipe.
Passion Fruit ‘Juice’
What better way to feel like you’re on holiday with this delish passion fruit ‘juice.’ Incredibly easy to make and doesn’t require many ingredients.
Recipe-less Delicious Browned Shrooms
Shrooms on toast sounds pretty self explanatory and boring, but they’re one of my staple breakfasts. The umami you unlock when browning mushrooms make them so delicious. Obviously to make this you don’t need any measurements, so I’m here to help you with the technique.
Sun-dried tomato Pesto
Any pesto made with basil is reserved for the warmer summer months. I get very excited every year whenever I start making my basil pesto because I know summer is well on it’s way. This sun-dried tomato pesto has been one of my summer staples for the past 3 years- so full of flavour, and perfect as a spread, in pasta or wherever else you want to use it..
Turmeric Mylk
I would never say no to turmeric mylk… unless it cost money. Over the years I have perfected my ultimate cup, I love mine slightly spicy from the ginger, and all the hints of cardamom, cloves, cinnamon etc… lingering after I’ve drunk it.
Watercress Potato Soup
I normally don’t like thick-er soups, but this is one I make an exception for. Healthy, dairy-free and terribly easy to make this watercress potato soup is here to soothe you.
Recipe-less Pounded Fried Chicken Thigh
I don’t know any meat eaters that don’t like fried chicken. Making it at home is a TASK, that’s why I made this seriously quick ( 5 minute cook time) and simple ‘recipe’ so satiate your fried chicken needs. As goes with recipe-less, no measurements are needed, and you can go as wild or reserved as you want.
Tahini Chocolate Chip Cookies
I am a huge fan of choc chip cookies, and decided to create my own with the addition of tahini and sesame seeds. This recipe is perfectly balanced has crispy edges and a gooey middle.
Tuna Empanadas
It’s all about pantry staples. These empanadas are the perfect parcels to have- whether its for a picnic, a snack, or part of your meal, they are absolutely delicious and incredibly easy to make.
Tomato Anchovy Spaghetti
Whether you love or hate anchovies, you’ll probably love this recipe. It might seem like a lot of anchovy filets you’re adding in but they create a delicious umami base for the tomato sauce which brings it to a whole other level.
Rice Pudding
I grew up eating Peruvian rice pudding. After years of not having it I had a craving and came up with this recipe based on my memories of how it tasted in my youth. This recipe is a healthier alternative to other rice puddings out there and so extremely easy to make.
‘Nduja Bucatini
The first time I had ‘nduja it changed my life- dramatic, but it is one of my favourite cured meat products on the market. When I found a place where I could actually buy the ‘nduja itself, I bought some and thats when I started masking ‘nduja pasta. That was 4 years ago, and the recipe hasn’t changed. It’s one of my favourites, a go-to whenever I want to treat myself to a home-cooked meaty dish that takes little to no time.
Mussels Arrabbiata
Mussels in tomato broth is one of my favourite seafood dishes. Forget the pasta, give me a huge bowl with loads of crusty bread to mop up all the sauce. I love this dish since it takes little to no time to make, but it looks so impressive. Whether its date night or a lazy weekday night, whipping this delicious dish up takes no time.
Mung Bean Dal
On a cold rainy day in summer, all I could think about was the Dishoom house black dal. After months of not eating it I had completely forgotten how it tasted, but I decided to go along with my gut and create a dish inspired by it. I don’t mean to brag, but the end result has changed my view on the Dishoom dish.. I think it’s way better- different, but still reminiscent of the OG dish.
Lamb Ragu Rigatoni
My favourite special occasion meal is lamb ragu pasta. I don’t often cook meat, and pasta may seem a little boring for an occasion meal, but this is one of my favourite recipes. Its fool and fail-proof, so no matter your cooking level-you will not mess this up. This ragu is as simple as can be- set it and forget about it, and in 1.5 hours a beautiful sauce will come together.
Creamy Vegan Mushroom Risotto
Eating loads of cheesy risotto isn’t the healthiest thing on earth, especially if like me you’re eating it once a week… I tried to find a way to make it healthier by substituting the parmesan for a dairy-free ‘cheesy’ sauce. After trial and error, I came up with this super creamy and delicious vegan risotto! If it’s vegan it’s healthy right?
Fluffy & light Pancakes
Pancakes have always been my go-to sweet brunch option. I ended up creating super fluffy American style pancakes that are easy and quick to make. As usual, I like my recipes to be as versatile as possible- so you can absolutely use this as a base and make blueberry pancakes, cinnamon swirl, choc chip etc… The pancake itself isn’t super sweet so you can go as wild as you want to when it comes to the syrupy and sweet toppings
Recipe-less Egg Sarnie
Recipe-less recipes. Here to teach you how to rely on your intuition, instead of strict measurements given to you. Starting out with a simple, but elevated open face creamy egg sandwich.
Chickpea & Veg Coconut Curry
This chickpea coconut stew is the most versatile, and seasonal-less dish you can make. Because of it’s delicate flavours the stew can be eaten in summer as well as in winter, adding whatever seasonal hard veg you may have.
