lil lemon messy pud



There are a few staple ingredients that are forever lounging about in my fridge or cupboard, and lemons are one of them. Ever so adaptable the sour and feisty lemon lends itself to sweet and savoury dishes. Grated and stirred through a risotto or beef stew, or made into a delicate lemon curd for a tart as seen here!

Fresh lemon curd is delicious served on morning brioche for breakfast, or spooned into a baked tart and sprinkled with fresh raspberries for an effortless dessert.

love lemons...

chocolate animal brownies



Call it a train wreck if you will, but these cute little chocolate fudge brownies will assist in feeding and helping animals for the RSPCA. I am donating the money raised from these ultra sweet and decadent delights to a passionate and devoted RSPCA fundraiser - Cassie's Cupcake day for RSPCA.

If you want to donate to the cause, then click on the link and help an animal!

We have raised $25 for her cause so far...

a little bowl of comfort, called Dahl

Those who know me, will be familiar with this recipe.
A dear friend Brooke, gave an emergency dahl recipe call whilst rummaging through the supermarket and it re-ignited my dahl obsession once again.
A healthy soul warming meal, filled with freshly roasted spices and served with natural yogurt, chopped herbs and a generous squeeze of lemon or lime (Vitamin C) to help your body absorb the non-haem iron in the lentils! Fantastic for vegetarians :-)
