Last weekend I found myself home alone with no plans. As this is quite the rarity, I decided to make the most of this time by myself by catching up on OITNB (omg how sad is the ending?!!), writing up a few blog posts and rustling up something tasty for dinner. One of my favourite…
This dish is one of my favourites! Stir fries are my go-to when it comes to cooking. They’re so quick and easy to rustle up, making them the perfect dish after a busy day. Plus they’re packed full of healthy ingredients. This particular dish has the element of potatoes, which do take a little longer…
If you follow me on Snapchat (sweetmonday) or Instagram, you may have seen that we spent our Saturday night making sushi! Sushi, and Japanese food in general, are our favourite cuisine. We loved Japanese food whilst we lived in Australia, and then even more so when we traveled Japan. Sashimi, nigiri and sushi rolls, are…
We rustled this meal up last week, and I’ve been struggling ever since to know what to call it. I’ve named it a ‘prawn and coconut curry’, which in essence the one part is. However, we served it with brown rice, corgetti and carrot. So it’s really a bowl of delicious, healthy, colourful goodness! To…
It’s the Christmas holidays, but if like me you’re sick to death of turkey and all the trimmings, you want a hearty, warm dinner, but are lacking motivation and inspiration – this could be the dish for you! Mussels are super easy to cook, and relatively cheap to buy. I’m a big seafood fan and…
This prawn noodle stir fry recipe came together by chance. We had all of the ingredients in our fridge and found the perfect recipe online, to bring them all together. The recipe was originally posted by Emily at Fuss Free Cooking, and it’s most certainly that! I’m not one for complicated recipes, and stir fry’s…
This is a favourite dish of mine. It’s not the prettiest to look at, but it’s packed full of flavour and is really healthy. It brings together a combination of my favourite bits and pieces – fish, celery, sweetcorn, mushrooms (the list goes on). It’s also a great dish for using up vegetables and salad…
Kedgeree derives from the Indian rice dish Khichri, dating back to 1340. Kedgeree traditionally cosists of cooked, flaked fish, boiled rice, parsley, hard boiled eggs and curry powder. Stew first made this dish a couple of months ago when I was working late. I had some leftovers re-heated, but it didn’t quite taste as good….
Stir fry is my go to meal when I don’t know what to cook. If you’re eating alone, or if you have lots of veg that needs using up, it’s a great quick and easy dish. Prawns are one of my favourite things to eat, and luckily Stew has mastered how to cook them perfectly….
Normally Stew and I cook all our meals together, but this weekend he was busy watching the first Liverpool game of the season (yawn!), so I decided to try my hand at something. I am a huge lover of pies and mash potato, so when these two things come together in the form of a…
This is another easy and quick dinner. I feel like I always say this, but by experimenting (looking on BBC good food/Jamie Oliver), we’ve found that lots of flavoursome recipes don’t take a lot of effort or time. As we used smoked, black pepper, mackerel, it meant we didn’t need to do anything with it….
