August 12, 2019

I am super excited to share a tried and tested, family favourite recipe today – Chilli Garlic Prawn Risotto In Napoli Sauce. After getting really addicted to a seafood risotto that kept popping up at my local café’s special winter menu a few years ago, I decided to try recreating that at home. But with my own twist of course – lighter, dairy-free and packed ... Read More >>

10 Minute Bean And Mushroom Fried Rice

July 2, 2019

I often get asked about my fridge and pantry staples. But no one really asks me about what is always in my freezer. Frozen veggies! As a working mum and someone who is also obsessed with meal prepping, frozen veggies are the saving grace of all my after-school snacks and quick work lunches. They are especially great because they are picked and frozen whe... Read More >>

Who doesn’t love a good iced lemon tea? It is cold, sweet, tart and tangy with a good jolt of caffeine from the black tea. A thoroughly refreshing drink to sip on while you read a good book on a warm day or a great lemon hit to ward off the winter blues! I still remember my first taste of iced lemon tea. Nick and I were on our honeymoon in Bhutan. It ... Read More >>

He called the dish P... Read More >>

May 31, 2019

It's friday again which means it is Cocktail & Canapé night while watching re-runs of our favourite movies. Winter has unexpectedly arrived early, much to my delight. There is a cold snap gathering strength across Australia and although this might warrant a hot toddy or a mulled wine, I have decided to boldly make a couple of fruity but warming marga...
