Breakfast

Two poached eggs over a bed of creamy garlic and herb yogurt topped with Aleppo pepper butter and a garlic and herb infusion and served with half a roasted aubergine, smokey aubergine puree, and arugula dressed with a simple lemon tahini dressing. This is Çilbir or Turkish poached eggs and I guarantee the combination of flavours will be the most exciting thing you’ve had for breakfast in a long time – maybe ever.

Some of my favourites

Homemade Jamaican beef patties with rice and peas in the background.
These fish tacos with mango salsa and creamy white lightning sauce are full of vibrant flavours layered together to create a perfect bite. Made with baked fish and lots of fresh ingredients, they’re healthy but they taste like pure indulgence. All for only 400 calories and 10 grams of fat per serving of 3. The best part is that they’re quick and easy to make. Fish tacos are the answer to boring weeknight meals.
Caramelized Roasted Cabbage Stuffed Phyllo Spirals
Homemade potato gnocchi with lamb ragu made from leftover roast lamb and mashed potatoes.
