Pumpkin + Kimchi Fried Rice (Vegan)
Kimchi fried rice is one of my favourite quick and easy flavour-bomb meals as the kimchi does all the heavy lifting on the flavour front, so much so that you hardly have to add anything else to the rice. But here, the addition of teeny tiny little nuggets of tender diced pumpkin adds a lovely […]
Pumpkin + Jackfruit Curry (Vegan)
Nothing symbolises autumn (fall) more for me than pumpkins. Harvested in autumn, they are cheap and plentiful right about now. They’re also good keepers, if stored somewhere cool and with good airflow, meaning they’re one of my favourite vegetables to grow and eat throughout the cooler months. That said, it’s only May and we’re nearly […]
Quinoa Carrot Bowls with Lemon Sesame Dressing (gluten-free + vegan)
It’s at this time of year when I start to crave something a little warmer for dinner, but I’m not quite ready to go into full winter comfort food mode, just yet. That’s when lightly cooked salad bowls come into their own. Just enough freshness, but still nourishing and warming too. This bowl couldn’t get […]
Chilled soba with pickled cucumber, sesame and soy
While the nights have cooled off dramatically these past few weeks, the days are still hot and sticky. We’re coming to the end of most of our summer crops, eating the final few cucumbers, digging up our main potato crop, leaving beans on the plant to dry for seed, pickling all the chillies and willing […]
Cucumber, mint + lime ice blocks
The one thing my kids have always craved in the middle of winter and/or when sick with a cold, is cucumbers. They love them so much and will happily munch on a whole one like one would eat an apple. Sadly for them I don’t often buy cucumbers over winter, unless we’re really desperate (or […]
Pineapple + basil cordial
We run out of ice on a daily basis at the moment. Everyone fights over the last remaining pieces in the freezer, hoping there’ll be just enough to at least cool their drink, if not chill. I’m not one to usually crave iced drinks and much prefer to drink room temperature for most of the […]
Sticky tofu + pineapple lettuce cups
– – I don’t even know how many months it’s been since I’ve shared a recipe on here? Three? Maybe four? On-going lockdowns and restrictions have left me (and many others I’m sure) not even knowing what day it is most of the time. But I’m not going to dwell on the madness I’m seeing […]
