Za’atar Pitta Chips & Baba Ganoush

If you've followed me for a while you'll know that I grew up in the Middle East and so the cuisine and the flavours associated with it hold a special place in my heart. There are so many amazing ingredients and tastes that can help brin healthy meals to life without having to use too much of the other ingredients that make food taste good, namely oil, salt and sugar! Za'atar is one ingredient I can't get enough of. It's typically used as a flatbread/Arabic pizza topping, but it's also amazing as a convenient and yummy seasoning for vegetables, meats and dips. The easiest way to enjoy za'atar (a herb mix which you can now find in most major supermarkets!) [...]

HelloFresh Review – Creamy Lentils and Plant Based Chicken

*This post is sponsored by HelloFresh* Today I’m reviewing the UK’s leading recipe box company, HelloFresh, who deliver recipe cards and ingredients straight to your doorstep taking away the hassle from dinner time. You’ve probably already heard of it and may be curious to find out how it works and what to expect from the service. It goes without saying that I love cooking. I’m definitely in my element when I’m in the kitchen whipping up a delicious meal or a tasty treat, but it can get a little too much sometimes. I spend my days either experimenting with recipes, filming recipes, editing food content or thinking about the next recipes to try. It’s my dream job and I absolutely love [...]

California Walnut Keema

*This post is sponsored by California Walnuts* Keema is a minced meat dish usually made with minced beef or lamb. It’s an Indian dish, but variations of it are enjoyed in other counties like Pakistan, Bangladesh and even in Middle Eastern countries. I grew up in Iraq and we make it minus the chilli, so basically a milder version of it, but equally as delicious! It’s such a comforting meal, especially served with rice in a bowl during the cold winter months! I’m creating a vegan version using California Walnuts by blending the walnuts into a ‘mince’ then soaking it in water to make it lovely and soft to mimic real minced meat. This way it will absorb all the [...]

California Walnut Za’atar Flat Breads

*This post is sponsored by California Walnuts* This right here is one of my childhood favourites! If you’ve never tried (or even heard of) za’atar you’re missing out big time! It’s basically a blend of herbs (mainly thyme and oregano) with sesame seeds. It’s usually mixed with olive oil and lemon juice then spread on bread/dough to create the most drool worthy flavour combination! It’s definitely a comfort meal for me - a Middle Eastern pizza if you like. I’m adding California Walnut ‘mince’ to my version to add some healthy fats and protein. Did you know that walnuts are the only tree nut to contain a rich source of the plant-based omega-3, alpha-linolenic acid (ALA) 2.7g/ 30g*? Each 30g [...]

Korean California Walnut Bowl

*This post is sponsored by California Walnuts* I absolutely LOVE Korean food. It is usually quite heavy on the meat, but it’s so easy to make your own vegen/vegetarian Korean dishes at home, like this Korean California Walnut bowl I’ll be showing you how to make in this post! I’m using a combination of California Walnuts and tofu as the plant based meat substitute. The walnuts are an amazing source of essential fatty acids in the form of omega-3, alpha-linolenic acid (ALA) 2.7g/ 30g* as well as protein. The tofu is another great source of protein and together they make such an amazing minced meat substitute that’s delicious and balanced. The mild and creamy flavour of California walnuts make them [...]

Pan-fried Maple Soy Tofu

A delicious Asian inspired meal that's vegan and packed with protein - this pan-fried maple soy tofu dish is also easy to make and bursting with flavour! It's safe to say that my sweet recipes are a lot more popular on here and on Instagram compared to my savoury recipes, which means I gravitate towards making more sweet treats because I know that's what you all enjoy the most. I do however want to start making more savoury dishes as I also love cooking main meals and experimenting with savoury ingredients and flavours. One of my favourite ingredients to include in my meals is tofu, especially when it's served in a delicious sauce packed with flavour like this pan-fried maple [...]

Cornish New Potato and Chickpea Curry

*This post is sponsored by Seasonal Spuds* A super warming curry that’s completely plant based and packed with flavour. This Cornish new potato and chickpea curry is a definite crowd pleaser! Packed with fragrant spices like cinnamon, cardamom and turmeric with a generous helping of chilli to add a real kick. The chilli part can easily be adjusted to meet your heat threshold, of course ;) I can handle some heat, but not too much or I feel it overpowers all the other flavours. But then I have been told that I don’t add enough when I’m making a curry for others, so it really does depend on each individual’s preference. I chucked in some chickpeas for a source of [...]

Za’atar Cornish New Potato & Sausage Bake

*This post is sponsored by Seasonal Spuds* A wholesome meal with in season Cornish New Potatoes and added protein in the form of vegan sausages making this bake a well-rounded, filling and satisfying meal! Packed with flavour from the za’atar mix – a popular Middle Eastern herb mix mainly made up of finely crushed dried thyme, sumac and sesame seeds. I grew up in the Middle East and so this spice mixture is really close to my heart. It’s still not very well known in the UK, but is now stocked in most major supermarkets either in the spice isle or a the world food isle. Za’atar goes well with many types of dishes – mainly used on bread with [...]
