Cooking with Lactofree- Broccoli & Cauliflower cheese bake

● Tuesday, June 3, 2014 0 nhận xét

Around 2 weeks back I was invited to an exclusive Lactofree masterclass with Michelin starred chef, Tom Aikens. I had a crazy night the day before and waking up for a breakfast masterclass was a bit of a feat, and for a second (just a second) I wished I didn't have to go, but just snuggle in bed. I'm glad that thought didn't last long because I really did have a fab time. I reached just before the...

Season's Greetings & Christmas Specials

How are last minute preparations for Christmas coming along? Are you frantically baking and cooking or relaxing with your feet up while your parents put together the Christmas feast? Either ways, I'm sure you are all looking forward to Christmas celebs tomorrow.The husband has pushed off to India and I had to stay back because of a hectic work schedule and Id be joining him only in Jan. I was all...

Jamie Oliver 20 minute meals app review and his recipe for chilli corn chowder

● Thursday, October 24, 2013 0 nhận xét

I love Jamie Oliver! Like seriously. I think he's one of those chefs who you develop a liking towards right from the start- so down to earth and simply a sweetheart. I used to watch his 30 minute meals on telly and have even given some of the recipes a shot (obviously I take more than 30 minutes). They are absolutely easy to follow and his photographs (courtesy David Loftus) are to die for. I love...

Macarons {3 ways}

Last week, a couple of us food bloggers went to the Royal Albert Afternoon Tea Tour in association with Breast Cancer Care. It was an afternoon of fun, eating and oohing and aahing the gorgeous, gorgeous vintage style tea sets that were used to serve the cupcakes and tea in. Just a few days before, we were oohing and aahing their collection at one of the department stores and Id seen this one particular...

Mixed fruit salad with rose water and pistachio

● Sunday, September 1, 2013 0 nhận xét

Its over guys, its over. Summer is on its way out and I can already feel the slight chill in the air post 5pm. Although it was a pretty decent summer, I feel it ended too soon and I am not willing to let go as yet. I think the coming week is the last of 20C weather we'd get to enjoy. Sigh!So on a warm-ish Saturday I made this mixed fruit salad to enjoy the best of British bounty. The strawberries...

First of all a huuuuge thanks to all those who left comments on the ad post. I am a wee bit embarrassed and at the same time overwhelmed at the outcome. Its weird watching myself on telly and I hope I get used to it soon :)Those who attended Bloggers' Buzz beginning of this year might remember Devnaa who sponsored a box of sweets for the goody bag? Or let me put it this way, those of you who attended...

Food and wine pairing {Loire blogger competition}

First of all, a huge thanks to all of you who wrote in congratulating me on the ad appearance. I am overwhelmed and loving my lil blog family even more. I will definitely post the ad on the blog and make sure none of you miss it :)I was sent two bottles of Loire wines- the Muscadet and Rose d'Anjou- for a blogger challenge wherein I had to match the wines with food of choice. I only recently started...

Tomato and cucumber salad with Fleur de Sel

● Wednesday, July 3, 2013 0 nhận xét

Its only after I starter food blogging did I come across so many different types of ingredients and methods. Fleur de Sel, meaning flower of salt, was one such ingredient that made me wonder what it tasted like. The numerous recipes that called for Fleur de Sel, like salted caramel and chocolate tarts, I had no choice but to use normal sea salt since I just couldn't get my hands on Fleur de Sel.Eco...

Baba ghanoush (Moutabel)

Let me say this over and over again. The best part about blogging are the friends you make in the process. Friends who have now become such an essential part of your life, that even if you stop blogging, they wont just disappear. I have been lucky enough to meet some of the UK-based food bloggers and most of us try and catch up once in a while.Last week, Suchi of Kitchen Karma invited...

Review: Hotel Chocolat.

● Monday, June 17, 2013 0 nhận xét

Hotel Chocolat sent me a box of chocolates to review and I must say the box didn't last that long. Each time I get a box of chocolates to review, the first thing I do is take a picture because I know it wont last for more than 2 days after the husband gets his hands on them. He is the chocolate fan in the house and so this review is purely based on what he thinks of Hotel Chocolat.I was given the...

Blackberry bramble

● Thursday, June 6, 2013 0 nhận xét

Finally summer is here (to stay I hope). Days are warm with highs of 20C and evenings are cool. Pleasant enough to sit out on the balcony and enjoy a beer. The pub near our house is almost always full and its impossible to get a seat outside. My flip-flops and skirts have come out of hibernation, but I'm not yet brave enough to venture out in shorts as the crazy winds are still around, reminding us...
