MY DARLING LEMON THYME

Gluten + dairy-free Apple, Almond + Rosemary Syrup Cake

This cake straddles the seasons, somewhere between autumn (fall) and winter. While our apple trees were finished up by mid-autumn we all know that apples are one of those fruits that store well, so it’s during winter when not much else in the way of fruit is around -bar the beginning hints of citrus- that […]

Roasted Brussels Sprout Rice Noodle Salad with Soy Ginger Dressing

In a few months time it will have been THIRTEEN years since I started sharing recipes online. So much has changed in the online world over that time (hello Instagram, Tik Tok) and I’ve really struggled at times to feel like my voice matters and/or is still relevant in this fast paced online world where […]

Za’atar-Roasted Eggplant Salad with Lentils, Halloumi + Roasted Cherry Tomatoes

One more autumnal recipe before the sun-kissed produce disappears for another year. Here I’ve stuck with Middle Eastern inspired flavours that are always guaranteed to work together, thick slabs of creamy za’atar roasted eggplant (aka aubergine for you Aussies reading), sweet roasted cherry tomatoes, earthy lentils and salty halloumi all brought together with a lemon […]

Chilli + soy eggplant with tofu (vegan + gluten-free)

Firstly I said ‘you’ve asked the right lady!’ before proceeding to […]

Pumpkin + Kimchi Fried Rice (Vegan)

Kimchi fried rice is one of my favourite quick and easy flavour-bomb meals as the kimchi does all the heavy lifting on the flavour front, so much so that you hardly have to add anything else to the rice. But here, the addition of teeny tiny little nuggets of tender diced pumpkin adds a lovely […]

Pumpkin + Jackfruit Curry (Vegan)

Nothing symbolises autumn (fall) more for me than pumpkins. Harvested in autumn, they are cheap and plentiful right about now. They’re also good keepers, if stored somewhere cool and with good airflow, meaning they’re one of my favourite vegetables to grow and eat throughout the cooler months. That said, it’s only May and we’re nearly […]

Quinoa Carrot Bowls with Lemon Sesame Dressing (gluten-free + vegan)

It’s at this time of year when I start to crave something a little warmer for dinner, but I’m not quite ready to go into full winter comfort food mode, just yet. That’s when lightly cooked salad bowls come into their own. Just enough freshness, but still nourishing and warming too. This bowl couldn’t get […]
