Sri Lankan cashew curry
Three weeks on, I’m still on a curry bender after returning home from Sri Lanka. I can’t get enough of it and miss my daily dose. I find it funny that in the western world curry is mostly associated with and eaten throughout the cooler months, given all the countries where curry and rice are […]
Sri Lankan egg curry
I travelled quite a bit in my early twenties, always to parts of Asia, always wanting to see the world through other peoples eyes and every time in search of amazing food.

Grain-free orange, hazelnut + coconut bircher muesli
For the last 8 years I’ve shared recipes on this site and in my books, in the hopes that it might inspire people to take charge of their own health by cooking healthy simple homemade food from scratch and to make it part of your everyday. Today is no different. Using coconut yoghurt I made […]
