Banquet style eating is popular in our house. It’s perfect if you’re feeding people with one or multiple dietary requirements, and also, an excellent way to present food to fussy eaters. I feel it kind of drops the anxiety when children (or adults!) are free to pick and choose what they like. We have the…

Gluten Free Spinach + Feta Gozleme
Well, it’s been a long time between drinks. The truth is, is that it is far easier to share recipes via Instagram than it is here. But I still love this space, especially because it is easier to browse recipes, so I’m gonna do my best to keep this space alive and give it the love it…
GOLDEN TOFU + LENTIL *MEATBALL* CURRY
Here it is friends, possibly my greatest culinary moment – GOLDEN TOFU + LENTIL *MEATBALL* CURRY!!!! The meatballs are made from tofu and lentils, somehow light and fluffy but dense and moist. They also happen to be both vegan and gluten free. And they’re swimming in a curry of complete liquid gold. Sweet, spicy, rich…
Mauritian Potato + Vegetable Salad
It’s hard to believe now but there was a time in my life when my mum and I weren’t close. My childhood was pretty unconventional and I was one of those wild teens. My mum remarried when I was thirteen and my relationship with her new husband was pretty strained. He was from Mauritius and…
Raspberry + Banana NICE-CREAM
My default is to buy way too many bananas. And they never really go bad, each stage has a specific purpose: yellow bananas are for eating fresh, medium speckled bananas are for the freezer, and black bananas are for cakes and pancakes. Now that its summer I am baking less and less. We don’t have…
Golden Cauliflower + Turmeric Soup
Hello strangers!!! Well, at long last here I am with a new recipe! Things have been hectic with book stuff, and well, all the side projects that come with it. I’ll expand this story (in the not too distant future!) and post links to all the new recipes I have developed for other awesome brands….
Mini Strawberry Galettes
With the lead up to the release of my book, I’m preparing my brain for a world that is a bit of stranger to me – the media. Amongst the anxiety of it all, I found myself having to answer interview questions for an upcoming magazine article (cute!). True to my nature I put a…
Raw Salted Caramel Fudge
Sometimes I feel I am a walking contradiction. A cacophony of opposing traits. A tiny ball of chaos that is obsessed with systems and order. Overflowing with love. Cries way too much. A pillar of strength, with the potential to crumble any second. Overly proud. Overly vulnerable. Filled with terror, yet as brave as can be. It’s very confusing.Tomorrow…
Spinach, Feta + Pine Nut Gozleme
It seemed to come out of nowhere, but I feel the period of transition has come to an end. The last tears have finally been shed. However, they certainly went out with a bang. I subjected my friends, and my ego, to a couple of public weeping sessions. Not the tears rolling down the cheek, feeling overwhelmed type of…
Red Lentil Dhal
I live by the sea, and the cold wind blows strong. In summer it is a real asset. It smells of salt and coconut. There are children with spades digging channels and teenagers jumping off the pier. And we all spend hours in the crashing waves. For me however, its true beauty is revealed when…
