Nectarine and pickled cucumber rice paper rolls {vegan + gluten-free} #immigrantfoodstories

In all the years I’ve shared my stories in this space, something has always stopped me from sharing any of the most harrowing story I know. It’s never felt like my story to tell and even today, I feel a little nervous because it’s not my story. It never will be. But in light of […]
Apricot, pistachio + passionfruit ice cream bars {vegan + gluten-free}

Summer arrived right on cue this year. Just when we were all getting well and truly over the wet and cold of the last 6 months (oh who am I kidding, the last 9 months!)- boom, warm weather arrived. December 1st the sun was out, the birds were chirping and the cicadas singing. As all […]
Chipotle, bean + lime stuffed sweet potatoes with herb salsa (gluten-free + vegan) + win a copy of my new cookbook and more!

Those of you who have been stopping by here awhile, or have either of my cookbooks will know that I encourage cooking real food from scratch as much as humanly possible. It’s kinda my thing.

While the addiction is somewhat under control at the moment (ahem, cough, cough), I have totally lost count of how many I own. […]

Beetroot curry + seeni sambol and photos from my Sri Lanka trip: Part two

Sri Lankan inspired asparagus curry + pics from my trip: Part one

It now feels like a dream. In the midst of the daily grind of motherhood, some days it actually feels like it happened in another lifetime altogether. I’ve long wanted to travel to Sri lanka, I just never would’ve guessed that I’d get there in the way that I did. In June this year and after […]
