I continue to find ways to avoid whole almonds, but eat them in all sorts of other ways. A nut butter had to therefore make an appearance at some point. And guys, it’s gooooood. Like Joey levels of gooooood. Please make way for all natural, all virtuous, all adulting almond butter. Mixed up with a…

Vegan Chocolate Ice Cream
Permanent brain freeze season is here. So while you’re losing all of the electrolytes in your body in this terribly gross weather, the only way to combat it, is it to devour bowlfuls of cold, creamy, lightened-up, vegan chocolate ice cream. It’s rich, without actually being rich, super chocolatey, sort of coconut-y and completely amazing.
Caramelised Onion and Olive Focaccia (Vegan)
I wouldn’t normally challenge myself to work with yeast doughs in the summer because it’s hard enough keeping myself sane. Managing dough tantrums in sweltering heat is therefore absolutely not a character-building exercise I’d usually get into but, but, but, but.

Crispy Baked Garlic Fries
I’m always up for fries. Always always. Baked, fried, wedges, skinny, browned, burnt, whatever. I’ll take them. The only thing they need to be is crispy. That one’s a deal-breaker. And because a pot full of hot oil makes me nervous, I’ve been wanting to perfect baked fries for a while. Except they just never…

I have more strawberries coming to you next week, and I thought you might need a change from cutesy pink fruit. So we’re going the citrus route today, all mellow yellow. Fresh orange juice and creamy ricotta is the only thing your basic muffin needs to make the batter better. These muffins are rich, fluffy and…
Udaipur’s Old City
I’ve been to Udaipur many, many times in the four years that I’ve been married to a guy who grew up there, so you’d think a food-sightseeing-shopping post about it would have been up here a long time ago. Some of you have written to me for recommendations on where to go and what to do,…
Mini Strawberry Bundts with Strawberry Compote
So excited to share this cake with you guys today! There is something seriously great about being in a new place with a billion new things to figure out. I had no idea our move would make me this happy, but having all the light and space in the world has suddenly opened my mind…
