Crispy Cabbage Fritter With Chilli And Curry Leaf Oil - Cook Republic #glutenfree #vegan #foodphotography #healthyrecipe

Crispy Cabbage Fritter With Chilli And Curry Leaf Oil

Fritters make such excellent light meals. In the western world, there is a common misconception that fritters need eggs and or milk to bind. This is not true. Just flour and water is enough to make the perfect fritter batter. Or pancake batter. Depending on what you want to call it. Coming from a culture where vegetables are celebrated and meat and eggs are scarce, you learn to create fabulously delicious recipes using just plant based goodness. The fact that they are gentler on your gut, lighter and healthier; is just an added bonus.  This cabbage fritter is a perfect example. Heavily influenced by the Okonomiyaki - Japan's famous cab...

Turmeric Mushroom Pickle - Cook Republic #vegan #glutenfree #healthyrecipe #foodphotography

Turmeric Mushroom Pickle

Lately, during my Sunday meal prep sessions; this fresh Turmeric Mushroom pickle has been in heavy rotation. It takes a total of 10 minutes to make and is so incredibly packed with flavour that I can't believe how simple a recipe it is to yield that kind of result. I got the idea for making this gorgeous pickle after I had made this mushroom broth for the hundredth time. I always buy my mushrooms from the weekly farmer's markets and they are fresh enough to eat raw (something I learned from my friend Esther!). While I was prepping the broth and simultaneously popping the tiny mushrooms in my mouth (because, c'mon only the big ones go i... Read More >>

Strawberry Gin Fizz - Cook Republic #cocktailrecipe

Strawberry Gin Fizz

This strawberry gin cocktail recipe couldn't be simpler if it tried. It is essentially a gin and tonic without the tonic of course but with added fresh fruitiness of strawberry and lime. Gin is my favourite liqueur for mixing cocktails followed by rum and maybe tequila. I love fruit and coconut flavours. I know that is a wildly fluctuating flavour spectrum, especially while making cocktails. From the refined sophistication of delicate botanicals in gin drinks to the wildly loud and tropical flavours of rum cocktails. Both so delicious. I mentioned recently on social media that Nick and I were shaking up date night (previously kn... Read More >>

Gluten Free Whole Orange Cake - Cook Republic #glutenfree #foodphotography #healthyrecipe #cake

Gluten Free Whole Orange Cake

There is a very thin line between a perfectly baked whole orange cake and a soggy citrus mess. And there are two very distinct sets of people on both sides of that line. The ones who enjoy a good pudding like cake that can only be scooped up with a dessert fork or those who like a moist cake with a delicate crumb (like me!). Whole orange cakes are usually baked in slabs, because there is no way you could un mould one of these from a bundt pan. Being baked in slabs or shallow rectangular tins also makes a whole orange cake a perfect dessert. You could cut it up in squares or rounds (using cookie cutters), top with ice cream, a sprinkling ... Read More >>

Vegan Iced Spice Coconut Latte - Cook Republic #vegan #coffee #glutenfree #drink #foodphotography

Iced Spice Coconut Latte

A good iced coffee can be a revelation.  There are so many elements fighting for attention in an iced coffee glass. The coffee, the sweetness, the milk, the flavouring. If one is more overpowering than the others, the balance is thrown off. After experimenting for weeks, I finally created the perfect iced coffee. A vegan beverage, as rich as a decadent dessert but as light as water, as warming as the sunshine streaming through the clouds with bursts of subtle coffee and delicate spices yet refreshing with all the ice. For this recipe, I decided to use the Nespresso Master Origin India coffee. Nespresso recently launched thei... Read More >>
