I can’t remember where I got this recipe from but I have to say that it is without a doubt the easiest and the best that I have ever come across. Most importantly it only takes very little time to prepare and only uses a few ingredients which are readily found in most households. These Patty […]
Read more "Quick Mix Patty Cakes"Hainanese Chicken Rice is a staple meal in my family. Mum cooks it at least once a week. It is a dish found predominantly throughout South-East Asia, with each country / locality having it’s own unique variation, all centered around the same star ingredients – chicken & chicken rice.

Read more "Hainanese Chicken Rice Salad"Recently I made a black forest cake called ‘Cosmos’. The cake was moist and the mirror glazing looked great – so I though I’d make another version.

The best I could come up with was “Quiche Aux Choux” – but I am not French and although Google Translate so confidently translated “Quiche with Brassica” for me, when I tried it in reverse it merely came up with “Quiche Cabbage”. Although that is not […]
Read more "Brassica Quiche"I love recipes that are simple to execute but yet provide an amazing outcome. This simple shortcrust pastry recipe definitely fits the bill. It’s rich, flakey and best of all – short. – There are only a few things you need to know when making shortcrust pastry: 1. All the wet ingredients need to be […]
Read more "Simple Shortcrust Pastry"I guess the first thing you’ll notice when you see this picture is how few chips there are. Actually, only if you are greedy like me.
