Not enough dip for your chips? Not enough chips for your dip? Total disaster. I have the solution to your First World Problems. Make your own. You are now in control. Not some supermarket overlord who wants to decide your snacking limits.

Seriously, who can be arsed making mayo the tedious cheffy way books tell you, by whisking in drop by drop of oil? Not this little black duck that’s for shizzle. I’ve got things to do, people to see, Game of Thrones to watch. This here mayo is whipped up in seconds...

Is it from Serbia? Macedonia? Croatia? Who cares, its damn delicious! Use it on any meat, as a dip or to jazz up your eggs or veggies.

It’s been grey skies and non-stop rain here in Dubai this week, which inspired me to make soup. That’s a lie, it actually inspires me to watch Netflix and do sweet FA, but this is a food blog so that’s probably not going to cut it around here. So here is a delish soup...

Soup, soupidoop, soupidoop, soupidoopidoopidoop…if you didn’t just sing that like you were the missing member of Salt N’ Pepa then who even are you? It’s not soup weather around these parts right now, but I love me a little fridge clean out, and this was the result....

I’ve only been to Sonoma Valley once, but I’ve eaten this Sonoma Chicken Salad a thousand times. It’s my go-to lunchbox filler and if you’re smart, it will become yours too. It’s its honesty that I like, what you see is what you get. None of that salad trickery that...

This soup is so damn good you’ll want to build a wall around your kitchen and keep it all for yourself. Hahaha, sorry for the terrible joke, but seriously, the Mexicans gave us guacamole, so Trump you idiot, have some bloody respect.

Everyone is quick to hate on kale. “Why’s everyone so obsessed with kale?” “Kale tastes like swamp water!” kale is the reason why people can’t parallel park!” Well you know what? Kale is good and honest and won’t do you dirty like that two-faced baby spinach. Yeah...

So it’s not really the season right now in Dubai for soup, but it’s always the season for veggie-filled, ridiculously easy, quick meals. I honestly don’t know how there is still a market for that sodium-soaked tinned stuff. It’s veggies, stock and spices people!...

I could totally bang on about all the health benefits of this salad-the amino acids and fibre of beets, the hormone-balancing magic of carrot, the anti-inflammatory/anti-oxidant properties of pomegranate. But I won’t. Instead I’ll just say, this salad is delicious....
