Pad Thai is super delicous! And much easier to create at home that you think. You just need to make sure you have the right store cupboard ingredients in your pantry and you can make this whenever you like! The essential ingredients are fish sauce, tamarind paste, peanuts, rice noodles (or rice sticks) and lime….

Prawn Wonton Soup
I’ve been a bit quiet over the last couple of weeks – sorry! I’ve been taking a well earned break and enjoying Christmas! So here we go 2017! In my opinion, January is the worst month of the year – the “diet” starts, money is tight and I’m attempting a dry January! Ekk! To help…
Crispy tofu stir fry with garlic, ginger & broccoli
Another quick and healthy dinner to get you eating plenty of veg! This dish is vegetarian, but could also be vegan if you use rice noodles instead of egg noodles. I know not everyone likes tofu and even those who do can find it a bit plain! I coat my tofu in a salt and…
Sea Bass en Papillote with Prawns and Vegetables
Fancy something a little lighter before the indulging at Christmas begins? If you want to have a healthy dinner to balance out eating half a tub of Quality Streets (arghh!) then try this quick and simple dish that is packed with flavour. You only need a few ingredients, combine them together on some baking paper,…
Amazing Crispy Chilli Chicken with The Best Egg Fried Rice
Fancy a Chinese this weekend? Well make this instead of ordering out or picking up a ping meal! Trust me, this is so, so nice and a regular on a Saturday night in my house! Ok, I do fry the chicken and yes the sauce contains some sugar, but why not! It tastes amazing and…
Spicy Noodles with Char Siu Pork
You might have guessed by now, I eat a lot of noodles! They’re just so quick, easy and versatile! This dish is a little different as it uses a blend of curry powder and soy, creating a unique delicious flavour and taste. This recipe also includes some homemade char siu pork, which is so much easier…
Chicken Noodle Soup
This recipe is super healthy and a great way to kick start your week on a cold, autumnal evening. As I usually do on a Monday, I like to use up left over chicken and make stock from the Sunday roast, so this is not only good for you but cheap to make too! You can…
Gyozas
Dumplings are literally my favourite things to eat at the moment. Bite sized morsels of amazingly juicy and savoury deliciousness are just the best things ever. I cook them a lot. They’re great for Saturday nights in on the sofa to enjoy with a good film. I will post a few different types, but gyozas…
Ginger and Chilli Beef Noodles
I love getting leftovers to cook with. Surprising, as I used to hate it! But now, it seems to be a skill of mine, to be able to make leftover chicken or lamb from a Sunday roast to last more than one meal. It’s a great way to cook and to budget. Having a roast…
Thai salmon and vegetable curry
For a quick mid-week dinner, using a little shortcut is okay! No I don’t mean using a jarred sauce, but using a good quality Thai curry paste (you can get fantastic, authentic ones at your local Asian supermarket!), spiced up with your own flavourings and sauce is a great way to get a quick curry…
