This creamy and garlicky gratin is definitely going to be one of our new family favourite recipes! I am still amazed that I managed to make it completely vegan yet it looks and tastes just like a dairy version. There are a couple of different ways to soak the cashews. The fastest way, and the … More Vegan Parsnip, Mushroom and Leek Gratin
I do love a wonderfully spiced traditional sweet pumpkin pie however this savoury version makes a great main meal! It came about as the result of an error in the kitchen.

There are some meals that I make which make me so proud, this is one of them. Not only does it taste amazing but all of the vegetables on top are homegrown.

I am loving beautifully spiced food at the moment. Especially anything that contains ginger, it is my favourite spice at the moment.

This serves about four people, thankfully which means I am having a huge bowl of … More Moroccan Aubergine, Pepper and Chickpea Stew
I am obsessed with turmeric and tahini at the moment. I put tahini on everything, toast, porridge, salads… I could go on. The lovely warming and vibrant qualities of turmeric are also wonderful, especially now that late spring is finally here. I have always the flavour of tahini, as a child I loved it when … More Turmeric and Tahini Sauce
Savoury crumbles remind me of cold winter days. This spring version is lighter and fresher, perfect for cooler spring days when you want something warming yet spring like. I used onions, leeks, courgette and broad beans in this and asparagus would work wonderfully in it too. There is a hint of lemon in the white … More Spring Savoury Crumble
Happy New Year! 2017 was an incredibly busy year for me and my family. We found out I was pregnant, moved house, celebrated our one year wedding anniversary and then had our beautiful baby boy.

This is a beautiful warming soup for these cold winter days. I managed to make this while little R was sleeping happily in the carry cot (this is not a regular occurrence!).
