This creamy, vegan ‘cheese’ sauce is the perfect base for steamed cauliflower and broccoli to reinvent the British classic Cauliflower Cheese. A crispy topping of breadcrumbs makes it even better!! The sauce is based off of one by Kenji at Serious Eats – I…
After having Korean fried chicken in a restaurant a while ago, *that* spicy gochujang sauce stuck in my mind. It’s like a grown up version of the sauce on sweet & sour chicken. I made it at home, using it to coat crispy tofu…
Although sometimes I like a bao filling which takes a bit more time to prep, these asparagus bao are super fast to make. I keep frozen unfilled bao on hand which only take 5 minutes to heat up so this is a good one…
In light of recent racially-targeted attacks and hate crime against Asian people, I will be donating all ad revenue generated from this blog post (any previous ad revenue generated in 2021 as well as revenue from the remainder of 2021) to besea.n, a network…
Broccoli Soup with Coconut, Coriander & Noodles (Vegan)

Roasted Brussels Sprouts with Garlic, Lemon and Parmesan
Brussels sprouts are vegetables I always forget about. Not because I hate them or don’t like cooking with them, but I think in my mind they’re ‘reserved’ for Christmas time. When I discovered roasted Brussels sprouts were a ‘thing’ a few years ago when they…
Charred tomatoes with cold yoghurt (Ottolenghi)
I’m moving out of my parent’s home next Monday!! One step closer to being a real adult, uh oh. As my mum and dad were leaving for a holiday this week, we had a goodbye dinner for me and my boyfriend featuring this charred…
