Parsnip Alfredo

Sometimes you get an idea, you try it out, the planets align, and you just simply nail it first go. There was high fives and golf claps in my little kitchen when this deliciousness came together, along with much oohing and aahing from my fellow taste testers. Sorry if...

Pan-Fried Lemon Asparagus and Broccolini

I’ve gone and given your little trees and smelly-wee spears a little veg-jazzle and made them next level. Nothing difficult, just a few little pantry staples sprinkled on top is all you need to make them look and taste all restauranty and get everyone a bit more...

Middle Eastern Beef & Eggplant Casserole

So many names. Eggplant, brinjal, melongene, Guinea squash, or aubergine if you’re feeling fancy. It’s like this veg is creating new accounts to keep getting the one month trial…whatever he wants to be called, I’m a big fan. This dish is super easy to knock together...

Lebanese Cinnamon Chicken & Rice

If you want my advice, don’t even think twice about making this chicken and rice with all  of the spice because is really, really nice! I know cauliflower rice has probably had its low-carb hey day, but I’m still coming up with ways to revamp it into something...

When people get over the horror that I don’t start my day with a bowl of Crapflakes, they are always interested in what I eat for brekky. “Like, so, do you just eat bacon and eggs, like, everyday??” While that sounds delicious, even I need a breather from that piggy goodness. Team these with some […]

Spanish Chicken Casserole

Spanish Chicken Casserole

While I’d like to say I tasted this dish in some awesome restaurant travelling through Spain last summer, that would be a lie. This dish was invented in my little Satwa kitchen, because I had some chorizo in my fridge that was edging close to its use-by date and...

Massaman Curry

Massaman Curry

There is a little restaurant in Bangkok called Ban Chiang which I visit every time I’m there. It’s quite an unexpected place considering its location, but it never disappoints. It’s in an old Thai house, surrounded by loads of greenery and serves the most kick-ass...

Nasi Goreng

Nasi Goreng

I love Nasi Goreng. it brings back happy memories of our wedding week in Bali. I was some sort of Nasi Goreng monster that week. I swear I ate it every day, maybe sometimes twice a day. I was probably lucky I was still able to zip up my dress on the big day to […]
