Madeleines are one of my all time favourite foods. They always bring back memories of travelling in France with my family. A super-big bag of madeleines from the local supermarket was a cheap and very effective way of keeping me and my sisters quiet in the back seat of the car all afternoon! I’ve wanted…
Falafel is one of my favourites at the moment and I was buying a mix in the supermarket – but then I discovered how easy it is to make! I’ll go through it step by step and you can see. So for ingredients you will need: 1 cooked and cooled sweet potato (you could…
When I was younger I was a bit scared of seafood. I prefer it when food doesn’t look like the animal it came from and the claws/eyes/pincers/legs/tails do freak me out. I know that some people like it because they feel that they feel like it brings them closer to the animal and there’s a…

Ok – so no recipe today but I just wanted to share something that I found! Walking through Bluewater shopping centre, we stopped at Krispie Kreme Donuts. Its so cool as you can see all the donuts being made and decorated through the glass down the side! I got really excited several months ago about…
I first discovered Ranch dressing at Subway. It was an optional sauce you could add to your sandwich at the end of the production line and as soon as I tried it – I loved it’s garlicky goodness! For a really long time it wasn’t available in stores here in the UK – in America…
Risotto has got to be one of the ultimate comfort food. It’s cheesey, creamy, oozy and has a deliciously comforting velvety texture. Risotto alla Milanese translates as risotto with saffron – and ingredient I’ve not had much time to use as a student! But I finally got my hands on some this week and this…
