My excitement for this recipe just keeps on escalating. I went from wanting to make something that involved quinoa, to suddenly craving nachos, to thinking of a way that would tie them together. I haven’t had nachos in what feels like forever (The main reason for this being that ever since I watched Leonardo DiCaprio’s…
Recipe: Korean fried tofu
I am constantly looking for vegetarian meal ideas and it makes me so happy when I find one that is a) not too time-intensive and b) positively delicious. The sauce used in this recipe is so divine, I would happily eat it by the spoonful. The recipe below is just for the tofu, which I…
Recipe: lentil bolognese
Spaghetti bolognese is such a winter classic, and my not eating beef this year has thrown a real spanner in the works. Finally though, I have found a recipe that replicates spagbol pretty darn accurately, except with the added bonus that it’s healthier and there is no beef. It takes just as long as cooking…
Recipe: Aubergine and Chickpea casserole
A really easy Friday night comfort meal – I make it often as a way to use up any leftover veges I have as the recipe is pretty flexible (you will see in the photo below that I have used beans in mine, even though there are none in the recipe). The chickpeas are a…
Recipe: Rojos Chilaquiles
Weirdly, we discovered this Mexican dish in Bolivia. We ate it again when we reached Mexico and it did nothing but confirm to us that this was a great new meal to add to our already HUGE list of ‘Mexican food we love’. It seemed like it should be easy enough to make, so once…

Recipe: Kadai chicken
Back in the early stages of planning my trip to India later, I thought it was an absolute must that I learned to love Indian curries before I go. I have always loved Thai curries, with the crisp chilli, lime, coconut and coriander flavours in their dishes. I have always been a bit more hesitant…
Recipe: Butter Chicken (healthy!)
We all love ourselves a good ol’ butter chicken, evidenced by the fact that I have posted a second recipe on my blog! Butter chicken can be pretty indulgent, however not with this recipe. This recipe is surprisingly light without compromising any of the rich flavours that butter chicken offers – after all, it’s mostly…
Recipe: Butter Chicken
For me, butter chicken has always been take it or leave it. However, I absolutely changed my mind when I cooked it myself. It was so creamy and delicious, and so jam-packed with flavour. I could quite happily just eat the sauce with the rice, that’s how tasty it was. This is an authentic butter…
Recipe: Eggplant and pistachio pasta
An absolutely delightful recipe, this meal is simple to make. It is vegan, it is quick, and it tastes like something right out of Sicily. There are minimal ingredients and in summertime hopefully eggplants and tomatoes are in abundance wherever you are. It can be served as a hearty main dish, or alternatively served as…
