Lemon almond tart

I had a dear friend coming around for coffee and a chat today and I didn’t have a thing in the cupboard to nibble on while we nattered. It was 7am and I decided to try a new recipe that another friend had given me recently (as you do at […]

Make you own – Garam marsala

Some people find cooking with spices confusing but for me it is one of my favourite things. I love being able to create such depth and layers of flavours while also keeping things light and bright on the palate and this is something that I consider exciting and challenging. Therefore, […]

Upon our return from holidays I restocked the fridge with fresh fruit and vegetables ready for the week ahead. As I was doing so I discovered three passionfruit that looked a little worse for wear. I thought about throwing them out but then I remembered that when looking for good […]

Aromatic chicken pilau

Seeing the final few leaves fall from the frangipani tree signified that winter is just around the corner. This makes me feel a little sad because I love the summer and autumn months in Perth. The heat can be exhausting when it is at its most […]
