‘Food can be expressive and therefore food can be art’ – Grant Achatz I love new combinations and new techniques, it’s like getting new colored crayons as a child, it gives you the sense of endless possibilities. Matthew Kenney’s cook books are art and food; everything is extraordinary in its presentation and I am constantly …
‘In the cookie of life, friends are the chocolate chips’ I liked this recipe for two reasons, because the main ingredients are oats and bananas and because it is a blend and bake recipe. It has the same ingredients as your morning porridge but is easier to grab and go. I see this as a …
This recipe is mainly a blend and set. It doesn’t take long and is made with amazing healthy ingredients. Raw cacao powder has a large amount of iron and magnesium as well as fibre and protein (2 tablespoons has 4g protein). Hazelnuts are a rich source of nutrients and healthy fats including omega 6 and 9 …
‘It’s not what’s on the table that matters, it’s who is in the chairs.’ I love serving canapes with a glass of bubbly at the beginning of a dinner party. Little bites which you can pop straight into your mouth. Mr B serves the drinks and I serve the canapes, making our way around the …
This recipe is straight out of Bon Appetit. Normally I’ll take a base recipe and adapt it, but this recipe was perfect. Healthy, simple and quick.

This recipe is in loving memory of my grandmother, whose recipes are my guide to know she is always by my side. I was very nervous about cooking this dish and have therefore been putting it off inadvertently. This was my grandmothers signature dish, you know, like when you battle on Beat Bobby Flay, you …
‘The more you praise and celebrate life, the more there is in life to celebrate’ Mr. B is Italian and so loves bread, all things dough really. So for his birthday instead of making him a cake (don’t worry I made him a vegan chocolate cake later in the week) i made him this focaccia. …
Dear Friends of Tasha. Kitchen, Happy New Year! My wish for you is to Live Better, Strive Harder, Be Bolder, Dream Bigger, Climb Higher and Seek Greater. These too are wishes for myself and in the pursuit of this at the end of the year I took some time out to self reflect on …
Let’s break the myth that you need meat to build muscle. The gorilla can lift up to 10 times its body weight! I made this dish on the request of my meat and potatoes concierge. As I would leave the building early in the morning I would go by the front desk and drop off …
