‘I have been and still am a seeker, but have ceased to question stars and books, and have begun to listen to the teaching my blood whispers to me.’ This is one of those classic dishes that granny made for us growing up and was one of my favourites. It seemed so simple on the …
You are a work of art, not everyone will understand you…that’s okay…but those that do, will be in awe as they fall in love with you… This is a beautiful summer dish, inspired by Alain Passard, my favourite Parisian chef. His cookbook, ‘The Art of Cooking with Vegetables’, is more like a book of art …
I was looking for something to serve as a vegan main course and found this beautiful dish from the English book, Hemsley and Hemsley, the art of healthy living. It’s a whole cauliflower so when you serve it, you need to cut it like a steak. Your guests will be impressed, but more so when …

I love making gluten free savoury pancakes as they are easy to whip together quickly in the evening and you can fill them with whatever you want, so they are a good way to use leftovers (my granny taught me well) as well as allowing you to change the dish every time you make it …
Having returned from the Christmas break, to sub-zero temperatures and snow, I was looking for a recipe that would bring us a little comfort as we snuggled up on the sofa. Dairy-free risotto is actually quite easy as a lot of the creaminess comes from the starch that comes out of the rice whilst cooking. …
Having decided to eat less meat, I have been looking for a good alternative to a burger. When I say ‘good alternative’, I mean, something you can get your teeth into that has good flavor and texture. To this end, to start off with, I convinced Mr. B and my foodie friend to try one …
