Instant Chickpea Bread

May 14, 2019

When I was little, mum had a round oven with a glass top that looked unusually like a porthole or the domed round window of a bunker when laid flat. It was the most magical thing on earth. It made cakes – sweet and savoury ones. The first time I had a savoury cake, I was about five or six years old and I was intrigued – not impressed but definitely intrigued... Read More >>

Kaffir Lime And Matcha Gimlet

May 10, 2019

Ever since we started the tradition of Cocktail & Oyster Night, my culinary world has opened up to a whole new playground. Mixology! I never realized how invested I would become in the art of mixing cocktails. It shouldn't have come as a surprise to me. I have never been one to follow recipes blindly nor use short cuts and pre-made things. In this ca... Read More >>

Coffee With Cook Republic – May 2019

May 8, 2019

For the first time in many months, I was lucky enough to wrap up all my projects at the same time. So with a bit of downtime before the next set of projects began, I showed a little love to the things that get neglected the most when I am working - my home, my garden and my blog. With autumn vibes running through my veins, a morning of deep cleaning in t... Read More >>

Sparkling Chia Refresher

April 23, 2019

A Sparkling Chia Refresher is a great way to get your daily dose of chia seeds if you have had enough of chia puddings and smoothies. It is definitely lighter, cleaner and more refined on the palate. In fact, this sparkling chia drink is an excellent palette cleanser after a meal. This recipe is inspired by the Mexican Agua Frescas which are... Read More >>

5 Ingredient Caramel Shortbread

April 17, 2019

A traditional shortbread would have white sugar. We haven't done white sugar in our home in years. Hence, I haven't baked a shortbread at home in years. But while reading A Cup Of Jo blog recently, I came across a recipe for Brown Sugar Shortbread that looked it was kissed by caramel and sunshine and everything that was honeyed and gold. Baking ...

Costa Rica Tiramisu Martini

April 10, 2019

It was probably the most perfect evening in Italy, it’s stucco walls bathed in a golden glow; when Tiramisu was invented. The greatest gift to the world of dessert. An ode to coffee and everything sweet. My love for Tiramisu knows no bounds. I have dabbled in everything from classic dessert to gingerbread versions. From parfaits and ice creams to tea-soaked ...

Masala Scrambled Eggs

April 9, 2019

Trust street vendors in India to take something as ubiquitous as an egg and make it unapologetically ethnic, flashy and delicious. If you have ever travelled along the vast railway network on one of the long-distance trains in India, then you must have come across the famous Indian Omelette makers! Local men with a penchant for eggs, hawking carts full of fr... Read More >>

Coffee With Cook Republic – April 2019

April 8, 2019

Autumn is here, although not well and truly. We still have the late summer hot and wet spells every week which has made the lawn go berserk but other than that and a billion cobwebs, our gardens aren't growing anything at the moment. When we went away to India and Singapore at the peak of summer, everything edible or of value in our veggie patches decide... Read More >>

Broccoli Steaks With Garlic And Chilli

March 26, 2019

I hope you are no stranger to roasted broccoli because it is seriously one of the most magical and delicious secrets of the plant kingdom. Raw broccoli crisped and charred on a pan is a weekly mantra in my kitchen. But it is only recently, after the tremendous success of these cauliflower steaks that I started making broccoli steaks as well. I never r... Read More >>

Vegan Beetroot Quinoa Burger

March 7, 2019

This Vegan Beetroot Quinoa Burger has been a few months in the making. Using a Donna Hay recipe as my base, I set out to eliminate the egg and the feta which formed a large part of that recipe. The flavours were also very mild and to me, that translates as bland. I love my food with a bit of oomph and the best way to do that is through spices and the magic o... Read More >>
