This is a cookbook exclusive recipe! This recipe is exclusive to my debut cookbook Dinner which includes a how-to video for every recipe. Just scan the QR code! Just to explain…. I know, it’s confusing! You’re so used to getting recipes on my website – there’s over 1,200 of them, after all. And here you are looking at a tasty recipe video and I haven’t provided the recipe. 🙀 I’m not just doing this to torture you, I promise....
It’s a one-layer cake that you bake in a square baking dish and it’s very easy to make! When I was a kid, my favorite dessert was the simplest chocolate sheet cake with chocolate frosting. Preferably with rainbow sprinkles on top. 😍 This delicious cake reminds me of that favorite childhood treat. Making it is very easy. It’s a simple one-layer cake that you mix in one bowl. And if you don’t use any frosting, it’s quite appropriate as a snack or even for breakfast....
There’s no need to marinate the beef! Simply stir-fry, add the tasty sauce and serve. I love the flavors of Korean cooking and make this recipe quite often, but not just because it’s so tasty. It’s also a truly easy recipe, one of the easiest and quickest in my repertoire. (Another good one, and a variation on this recipe, is Korean ground beef). I have several stir-fry recipes on this website (this steak stir fry is excellent), but most require prepping vegetables, which is fairly time-consuming....

This is a chicken thigh recipe and it MUST be made with thighs – no substituting with chicken breast! Filipino Chicken Adobo Filipino Chicken Adobo is one of the first chicken thigh recipes I shared way back in 2015 when I started this website. Back then, I boldly stated that this was my new favourite Asian chicken recipe even it was thoroughly disloyal of me to say that, being of Japanese background and all (Teriyaki, Karaage and Yakitori…....
STRAWBERRY BARS Is it just me who has a serious lack of fresh strawberry recipes in my arsenal? I certainly have plenty of ways to use them fresh on and in desserts. Garnishing stacks of pancakes and french toast dripping with maple syrup. Or stuffed inside. Tried these Strawberry Nutella French Toast roll ups yet?? However, when it comes to using them in cooked form, I have a pretty limited selection....
Try serving them warm on top of Greek yogurt. The combination is amazing! This simple dessert is sweet, creamy, and decadent. The combination of bananas, coconut oil, and cinnamon is delightful. In my opinion, there’s absolutely no need for added sugar or honey in this recipe. Each of the ingredients is naturally sweet, and the result is creamy and wonderful. Ingredients You’ll only need three simple ingredients to make fried bananas....
Spicy, garlicky, salty and crunchy - these fries are doing a flippin good job of comforting me whilst Chris is working in Vegas. Did that sound like a spiteful ‘working’? I didn’t mean it to. He is actually working very hard. Today he’s speaking at a conference with so many audience members that I’d want to curl up in a ball behind the lectern and whimper. But apart from the horrors of public speaking, I am insanely jealous....
My homemade creamy gnocchi gorgonzola with spinach will take your taste buds on a blissful journey. Today’s recipe post is making my mouth water. I’ve never been as excited to share a dish as I am now, nothing beats the mouthful experience of the pillowy potato dumpling nicely coated with gorgonzola creamy sauce. It is that good! For a start, you will never catch me dead eating gorgonzola cheese on its own and I am sure I am not alone on this....
Making it is a matter of minutes, but you’ll need to strain the yogurt for two hours before you can use it in this recipe. I love my keto cream cheese frosting and use it often. But I also love Greek yogurt and I was curious to know if I could maybe use it as icing. It took some trial and error, but the answer is a resounding YES! Thick, creamy and delicious, Greek yogurt frosting is a great alternative to recipes made with butter or cream cheese....
Although you’ll need to stir the mixture a few times while freezing it, this is a truly easy recipe, and the yogurt comes out creamy and delicious. In summer, there’s nothing quite like a sweet frozen treat. I used to own an ice cream maker, but it took up too much countertop space. So I gave it away, and now I make frozen treats without an ice cream maker. This homemade frozen yogurt recipe is truly easy to make and it’s so delicious....

It’s the fat used in many traditional Indian curries for intense buttery richness, to make pan fried things like Potato Rosti super crispy, and a restaurant secret for extra lush Hollandaise Sauce (in 90 seconds!). I’ve used clarified butter and ghee in a handful of recipes and in each of those I keep repeating the same directions for how to make it at home if you can’t find it, plus it’s about half the price to make at home....

With a good sharp knife or kitchen shear. This process can be achieved in about 20 mins The urge of having a whole chicken or even turkey on your dinner or thanksgiving table can be appealing but think about the time it takes to roast them....
Like Shredded Beef Ragu, cooking this sausage pasta sauce long and slow gives it time to develop deep, complex flavours. Indulge in a full Italian banquet by adding a side of Garlic Bread and a garden salad with Italian Dressing! Italian Sausage Ragu Sauce I know I shared a Salmon Alfredo Pasta last week, but patience has never been my strongest virtue. Last week I went to an incredible Italian butcher/deli/bistro called Pinos Dolce Vita Fine Foods in Kogarah (Sydney, Australia)....
Made with just five ingredients, this recipe takes about one hour and is surprisingly easy to make! My husband always loved Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups. It’s his favorite chocolate candy. When we transitioned to a low-carb diet, I promised him that I would find a way to make a keto alternative. And I did! These delicious cups are one of my favorite keto desserts. They are amazing! Intensely chocolatey, smooth and creamy, they are also surprisingly easy to make....

Cooked up in a creamy, spiced masala sauce, it’s an indulgent dinner. Great for curling up on the sofa with, to watch those boxing day movies....
This recipe is brought to you in collaboration with Num Noms. Although Chris is normally the burger maker in our house, I managed to take over the griddle once again! I love experimenting with different burger flavours and toppings. I’ve made teeny tiny mini burgers, veggie burgers, fish burgers, and lots more. But this time the hero topping is in the burger. Tangy mature cheddar and creamy, stretchy mozzarella makes the perfect cheesy filling....
When I think of Christmas leftovers, the first thing that comes to mind is ham. Do you find that you always have more leftover ham than anything else? Year after year, my mother packs up Christmas leftovers for us to take home and it always includes a big chunk of ham. I try to snaffle extra turkey, gravy and potato which, to be honest, I prefer because I have so many more ideas for ways to use those leftovers than ham....
