Fried Steak
Fried steak is exactly what it is: fried pieces of steak! It’s one of the recipes that remind me of Ramadan at home when I was young one and although it may seem basic, it delivers the most delicious outcome in the shortest time. Mind you, this isn’t using sirloin, rib eye or any of […]
Air Fryer Garlic Parmesan Chicken Wings
Garlic. Parmesan. Chicken. Wings. You can’t get a better chicken wing than that. It’s creamy, garlicky, spicy and of course, crispy. And the best part, these are air fried so it avoids any of the unhealthy connotations with frying! Air fryers are all the craze right now and we’ve seen all sorts of creations from […]
Chicken Potstickers / Chinese Dumplings
I have always been intimidated by the thought of making dumplings as even though they do look ridiculously tasty, they just seemed tedious and difficult to grasp. Well, how wrong was I. After a few days of recipe researching, dumpling folding studying and mixture tasting, I managed to nail a great recipe for these easy […]

Chocolate and Hazelnut Rolls
Last year, we may have gotten a bit excited with making rolls – the classic cinnamon rolls and delicious cheesy garlic rolls – but we can’t help it! Once you get the hang on the recipe and technique, you’ll be making rolls upon rolls upon rolls. The beauty of making rolls is that you can […]
BBQ Lamb Chops
Seeing as the weather has gone from forecasts of snow to sunshine – sorry, we shouldn’t jinx it – it’s time to get the bbq fired up! Whilst we featured malai chicken tikka last year, we’ve got a vibrant green marinade that you can put on absolutely anything you like and stick on the barbeque […]
Roasted Aubergine Dip
Growing up, I was never a fan of aubergine. Perhaps it was the texture or even just a bad experience at a restaurant that made me really not care much for the purple fruit – yes, it’s a fruit! I didn’t hate it but it definitely had a solid spot at the bottom of my […]
Halal General Tso Chicken Recipe
So we may have a certain thing for American Chinese dishes as seen on our website with dishes like Mongolian Beef or Orange Chicken and now this halal General Tso chicken recipe. But we can’t help it, they’re just so easy to make and really hit the spot when it comes to iftar time! When […]
