Roasted eggplant + noodles with Chinese black vinegar dressing (gluten-free + vegan)
I’ll admit, I’m a total latecomer to the eggplant party. I wasn’t until I started this blog in actual fact, that I really started to fall in love. For years I turned my nose up at them. It wasn’t until I started cooking them in curries (like here and here) and roasting them (like here) that […]
Vietnam, take me back…
It’s hard to believe it’s been over 6 weeks since we left Vietnam. We seem to have hit the ground running since our arrival home and I’ve hardly had a moment to stop and breath, hence my lack of posts lately… and it taking me a whopping 6 weeks to finally post these! I can’t […]
gluten-free peach + raspberry crostata recipe
I’m a perfectionist in many ways. I like the toilet roll facing out, never in. If I see a mat at a front door that’s slightly off-centre, I find myself straightening it out with my toes without thinking. On a good day my cookbooks are stacked up just so (otherwise they are strewn all over […]

a few of my favourite things {January 2014}
I had great plans to get a post up yesterday, but alas it just didn’t happen. Instead I thought it might be nice to stall things a tad with a favourites post before the month ends, and then work towards getting my recipe up on Monday or Tuesday. How does that sound? It’s just that […]
dairy-free dark chocolate cinnamon ice cream recipe
Chocolate ice cream. There’s not really much that hasn’t already been said about the stuff and really, I’m pretty sure I don’t need to say anything more to convince you of it’s goodness eh? Haha, thought not… When it’s hot outside like it has been (stay safe Victoria and Adelaide, my fellow heat-wave-ers) I like […]
lemongrass tofu with chilli kang kong
Everything about life in Vietnam sits right with me. Family is number one, life is simple and there’s food everywhere, always. (My body got so used to eating over there that I really struggled with my 3 day New Year detox that I’ve just completed! I was starving the entire 3 days.) Of course there’s the usual breakfast, […]
