MY DARLING LEMON THYME

homemade sriracha sauce recipe (raw + fermented)

There’s no denying I like things hot when it comes to food. I’ve long been a fan of chillies, but sadly back in my younger years it was only ever in the form of sweet chilli sauce or as Si’s always liked to call it ‘that chilli crap’. (Charming, I know. Obviously he’s never been a fan!). […]

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.
