Follow me… Chicken Tikka The heart and soul of this recipe is of course the chicken....
OK, so I still don’t totally understand choosing, let’s be honest, any side dish over mashed potatoes and gravy, but my understanding of coleslaw has blossomed, as I’ve discovered how balancing the dish can be when it’s done well. Crunchy and a bit sweet, creamy and a little tangy, it’s the perfect foil to a rich barbecue sauce or crispy fried chicken. But I still thought we could do better....
I think it’s safe to say that I generally eat pretty healthy. However, when I’ve got that hankering, I have an uncanny ability to produce something sweet out of thin air. My husband was amazed by this when we first got together. When you need something sweet… (and by “you” I mean “me”) …pretty much anything can happen. Chocolate chip topped peanut butter by the spoonful. Grilled almond butter and mango sandwiches....
Enter.. cilantro lime brown rice. First made for a Cinco de Mayo potluck, this simple, yet extremely flavorful side dish quickly became a staple in our house. I’d had cilantro lime rice before at various burrito factories, so I was a bit shocked when I tasted my homemade concoction and discovered an explosive flavor, all at once aromatic, tart, and nutty. The brown rice really pulls its weight here, mingling gently with the coconut oil, tangy lime juice, and herbaceous fresh cilantro....
My mother has a huge collection of cookery books so whenever I go to meet her I borrow some. Last time also when I went to India, I bought a few books from her, one of them was on Lebanese cooking. Today’s recipe – Middle Eastern Couscous fritters is one of the recipes from that book. It’s one of the best couscous recipes I have and is also very easy to make....
I’ve always been a big fan of soup during the winter (or really, year round if I’m being honest), but ever since I started baking my own sourdough bread I just can’t get enough of soup. There’s nothing quite like a big bowl of soup and some crusty bread for dinner! So yes, I crafted this one so I’d have something to dip my bread in. I’m happy to say this curried cauliflower soup makes great dipping material!...

I saw a meme the other day which simply said ‘I need less stress and more fries’ and I’ve never related to a meme more in my entire life. Quite frankly that’s all the inspiration I needed for today’s post. Follow me… Greek Fries I’m probably better using the term Greek style fries, as I’m sure there’s someone out there screaming ‘THESE AREN’T GREEK FRIES’ at their screen. To be honest it’s quite tricky to pin point the most authentic way to make Greek fries (aka ‘Patates Tiganites’), so my take here is inspired by my personal experience eating Greek food and my few trips to Greece....
What Makes This Recipe So Good This recipe is seriously weirdly good. The wings are tender and succulent, and the sauce is just perfect. These Crockpot wings are super easy.

You can easily make them paleo and Whole30 by simply using ghee instead of butter and use serve with my Dump Ranch dressing! Chicken wings don’t have to be hard work when you have a crockpot!...
Ingredients & Substitutions Here I explain the best ingredients for my cold cucumber soup recipe, what each one does, and substitution options. For measurements, see the recipe card. Cucumbers – For the best cucumber soup, I recommend English cucumbers, because the seeds are small, the flavor is mild, and they have a thin skin, which means you don’t have to peel them. Persian cucumbers would also work, though. Chop the cucumbers into cubes for easier blending....
I’m really excited to put this simple and delicious pasta on your radar. I’m certain it’s going to make your regular midweek rotations! Follow me… Oven Caramelised Onions Slow-roasting onions is an easy way to caramelise them. It’s a fairly hands-off method in comparison to caramelising them in a pan, meaning you don’t need to watch over them and constantly stir them. How to caramelise onions in the oven Whilst you can caramelise onions without any extra ammo, I love adding in some balsamic glaze so they go nice and sweet/sticky....

All About Spanish Rice Asia was a set destination for the Spaniards as they travelled the world throughout the 15th and 16th centuries. From their travels, they brought back wheat and rice to Mexico. As the Spaniards were the ones to originally introduce rice to the Mexicans, it’s only natural that Mexicans commonly refer to their rice as, ‘Spanish Rice.’ Texture of Spanish Rice So, what exactly is the texture of Spanish rice?...

Today I am sharing the recipe of this vegan Asian sauce which is very flavorful and delicious. Though it’s also easily available in the market, once you learn how to make Thai peanut sauce from scratch at home in just 5 minutes, you will never use the store bought sauce again....
Every now and then I have to post a vegetarian version of a meat-based dish that I’ve never actually tasted. It’s a bit of a conundrum. See, part of why I know what I’m doing when it comes to vegetarian cooking is because I’ve been cooking vegetarian meals for a long time. But the reason I’ve been doing it so long is because I gave up meat at a pretty young age....
Ingredients & Substitutions Here I explain the best ingredients for my eggplant rollatini recipe, what each one does, and substitution options. For measurements, see the recipe card below.
