It’s more of a winter recipe but since the weather is bit like that I thought to give it a go. The only thing is that it’s impossible to find chestnuts around this time of year. Oh well, this one is without. The reason we made this recipe is that we found fresh dragon. I…

It’s hot and advised not to use the oven. Well let me have an oven recipe for you, woops. BUT, you could also put them on the bbq. The combination of the capers almonds and dill is great and adds flavour and texture. It is very easy to make as you can make the sauce…

Yay summer is back (hopefully)!! Love watermelon but normally wouldn’t make it as a salad for supper. Though I really liked this recipe, the green apple and lime make it very fresh. “Very refreshing and with a nice twist” – Dad I would say the effort to make the dish is average for a salad.…

It’s time for carrots again! And this recipe is my fav way to prepare them. I have already made it so many times. It’s very low in effort but still quite a unique taste. But before we jump into this week’s recipe. This girl got her first fan mail!!!!! It was a very cute card,…

Last but not least we had these Nutella rolls as dessert. I was a bit lazy and just bought the pastry dough myself. Just a quick note on using Nutella, even though this is the most popular brand out there it only has 13% hazelnut and think there are other way better chocolate spreads out…

Next up we have stuffed courgettes. The chefs for this one were Anna and Rachel, so what could possibly go wrong. Jokes aside, they are amazing. The flavour combo of the lemon, garlic and tomatoes is great, but this is definitely not the easiest dish to make. I do like that nothing goes to waste,…

We had another girls’ supper night and ended up with even a sleepover. In the following weeks, I will tell you about our thoughts on the starter, main and pudding. Today, we are kicking off with the starter. I don’t know why I initially didn’t rate this recipe very highly. But what a flavour combo!…

This time, my dad was in charge, both picking the recipe and playing chef. That left my mum and me with the rather enviable job of sitting back, relaxing, and doing the “hard work” of taste-testing. The main question today is, is it as simple as it looks? And I’m literally quoting my dad “I’m…

A slightly different post today, as I will be writing about my own creation I came up with during my frist voluntering shift at Foodcycle. Foodcycle brings people together by serving free, wholesome meals made from food that would have gone to waste. They cook with left-over vegetables donated by supermarkets, so a win-win. Seeing…

Yay another cooking session with friends!! And again, some familiar faces on our judge panel. The aubergine was done slightly quicker than we thought and was a bit burned. After scraping the top layer of the aubergines, they were good to go. Assembling the rest of the dish was quite easy by just putting everything…
