Pumpkin + ginger chutney
And just like that we’re already halfway through the year, I don’t mean to alarm you but it’s less than 6 months until we reach 2020! How is that even possible? Every year I hope things might slow down long enough for me to catch my breath, create recipes for this site and actually have […]
Buckwheat + roasted pumpkin salad with sumac yoghurt + pickled red onion
If there was one condiment I couldn’t live without, pickled red onions would be fighting it out for top spot (possibly alongside homemade chilli sauce). Over the past few years it’s something I always have in my fridge, I feel anxious when I’m all out. See the thing is, this unassuming and incredibly simple little […]
Sunshine squash masala dosa (gluten-free + vegan) from Dosa Kitchen cookbook
My first taste of masala dosa came at a road-side stall in the middle of the night somewhere on route to Diu Island, on the South-West coast of India nearly 20 years ago. It was love at first taste and one of the strongest food memories I have of that trip. Ever since then I’ve […]
No-bake coffee, cardamom + dark chocolate slice (gluten-free + vegan)

I’m well aware that many people die each and everyday and I don’t write this to make out that his life was more important than any others, it’s […]
Chickpea, tomato + kale stew with herbed yoghurt
I spent the afternoon yesterday, picking all the green tomatoes in our garden which are refusing to ripen in this cooler weather. Today the plants will be ripped out, making way for our winter crops. I’m hoping to get a little time this week (can’t guarantee though, as it’s the school holidays!) to make one […]
Sprouted mung bean curry (vegan)
When the weather cools enough to warrant a jumper and socks in the morning, but not yet a beanie, this is the kind of curry I crave. Light and fragrant enough to be nourishing and warming at this time of year, but not exactly the stick-to-your-ribs type food I crave in the depths of winter. […]
flourless dark chocolate, orange + ginger muffins
It’s the first day of spring today and I couldn’t be happier! After our non-existent (last) summer, this winter has felt incredibly long and incredibly wet. Our new house is amazing and feels like the home we’ve always dreamed of, however it’s not the warmest house so we’ll have to save up over the next […]
