  • Spaghetti Arrabiata

    Arrabiata means 'angry' in Italian, and traditionally is a spicy red sauce for pasta made from garlic, tomatoes and dried red chilli peppers cooked in olive oil. In my version, I've decided to add in finely chopped red onions slowly cooked and caramelised to add sweetness to the tomato sauce, and used Ardmona's Canned Rich & Thick Chilli Diced Tomatoes to add a kick of spice to the sauce. Finally, I used spaghetti for this one because I think it works perfectly in this simple red sauce.

  • Asian Slaw

    A simple and delicious salad perfect for summer.
  • Bò Nhúng Giấm ( Poached Beef Rice Paper Rolls)

    I’m sharing a lesser known traditional Vietnamese recipe where beef and onions are thinly sliced and poached in a simple slightly sweet and sour broth of coconut juice and vinegar before being rolled into rice paper rolls.
  • Apple, Pomegranate, Pistachio & Goat's Cheese Salad

    Sharing a delicious salad I made the other week featuring pomegranates from my parent’s garden. It’s a riff off the iconic Waldorf salad, where I’ve mixed some fruits and nuts together in a salad but instead of apple, celery and walnuts, I’ve gone for apple, pomegranates and pistachios. It’s a fun and easy one that you can serve as a side salad or have for on its own for lunch with maybe the addition of some poached/grilled chicken for some protein.

  • Sunset Negroni

    Bringing you a slightly spiced negroni cocktail for your weekend, using the Special Edition, Bombay Sapphire Sunset gin. This aromatic gin is infused with three additional botanicals; Indian white cardamom, golden turmeric and Spanish mandarin peel for the perfect balance of warming spice and citrus freshness!
  • Roast Beetroot & Blood Orange Salad

    Winter Salads don’t need to be boring. This is one that I like to make to serve alongside a steak for dinner. During the winter, my local market sells the most incredible blood oranges and their golden and purple beetroot looked so delicious, so I decided to put them together into a fresh winter salad.
