Chilli Lime Salmon Tacos with Roasted Mango Habanero Salsa
T-11 days to Cinco de Mayo! Unbeknownst to a seemingly large population of Americans that celebrate the holiday, the 5th of May commemorates victory of a small Mexican town in a battle against the French in which they were both outnumbered and inferiorly armed. I dive a little into the history of how Ethiopia pulled off a similar defeat of the Italian army in their bid to expand their empire.
As an African, I’m choosing to celebrate unlikely victors in battles against European colonisers. Grab a margarita with me and cheers to unlikely victors with this recipe!
Broccoli & Lentil Curry
I honestly cannot understand people who hate broccoli. Now hold on- give the poor vegetable a chance!

Being the only vegetarian in my household, cooking plant based meals that people actually enjoy has proven to be my toughest challenge. I’m perfectly happy eating a couscous salad but that wouldn’t please my rugby playing brother. My health conscious mother isn’t very comfortable…
Red & Green Thai Curry Pastes
As you all know by now, I have a thing for spicy food. I’ve been effortlessly eating whole chillies and immediately chugging gallons of water for the better part of my life. I always find myself mindless reaching for the chilli powder whenever I’m cooking- never salt, never pepper, always chilli. I made my first…
Bangin’ Cheesy Chicken Nachos
Happy New Year! Whilst I’m sure most of you are breaking out your gym shoes and stocking up on healthy foods to start the New Year Detox, I’m piling on the chicken and cheese because #newyearnewme is a lie and we know it. January 1st approaches and we all feel the need to make instant…
BBQ Hawaiian Pizza with Cheesy Bites
Aloha friends! Fun fact: Hawaiian pizza does not actually come from Hawaii. It’s from Canada. Reason Number 2837 why everybody loves Canada. Remember how I talked in my last post about how pizza dough is superior to pizza? I may have lied. Don’t get me wrong, pizza dough is great, but it’s not pizza great….
