I was inspired to make my own pizza by a marvellous BBC presenter, namely Lorraine Pascale, after she demonstrated a fool-proof dough recipe & an even easier way to shape the pizza. She also caught my imagination after using some unique fusion toppings, such as harissa paste or hummus as a base, topped with chorizo, herbs, feta cheese, ….the variety […]
Risotto of any kind is really easy to make, so long as you have your core ingredients chopped up in advance, the right timing of when to add them, & then some time just to stir & attend to bringing the rice to nice. So, what I recommend personally is to finely chop onion & combine in first fry with […]
Such a pleasant taste, & healthy too. It adds an umami taste, is gluten-free, a good source of fibre, & rich in minerals & plant compounds. It is recommended as a way to improve blood sugar control & health if the heart. So easy to make as a pancake. All you need to do is follow the usual […]
If you like a creamy curry paste with overtones of turmeric, ginger, and an overall fresh vegetable taste, then this is a great curry paste for you. It is so easy to make and incredibly quick to prepare and cook, providing you have a blebnder. All ingredients and their measurements are variable according to personal taste and preference, so […]
In an endeavor to reduce my creation of rubbish and my use of plastic, I decided to buy a cup and plate which I could use again and again when camping. Now I am sure any person of my generation remembers the metal cups which our parents used to hand us when on caravan or camping trips. Not only did […]
Phad Thai became one of my favourite weekly dinners after tasting it in Thailand. The key to success is to prepare all your ingredients prior to stir frying: vegetables and other ingredients can be varied according to taste, but always use ginger, spring onions, lots of soy sauce and lime, and fry in coconut oil, before adding fresh coriander. I […]
Since Monday, I have been with friends in the Netherlands who I have known since I was 8 years old. They are like extended family for me due to the duration of our familiarity, and even though we hardly ever all have the time and opportunity to get together, I now realise how much we share. We have the same […]
So there has been a lot of conflicting opinions on supplements and whether they are good to take or just a way of enriching the vitamin content of urine. Honestly, I don’t know which expert opinion and whose opinion to believe. However, what I do know is that I have been impressed by the result of taking calcium complex with […]
A vegan treat: bhajias. So easy to make and cheap, and a great way to use up vegetables which would otherwise be put in the compost or, sadly, the bin. Today, I used up a courgette, onions, carrots, ginger, and turmeric. A great method to make sure they are cooked to delicious perfection is to grate them into a […]
I have been using the Sukin skin moisturiser for about 2 years now and can without hesitation state that it is excellent. I have had smooth blemish-free skin ever since.Normally, anti wrinkle creams which are packed full of harmful chemicals for the environment cost a fortune not only ecologically but also financially. Sukin is not expensive and is environmentally friendly. […]
