‘Treat Yourself’ Thai Curry Paste

Curry. It’s a winner in my book. There’s nothing quite like coming in from the cold in the autumn and knowing that a steaming bowl of something spicy is waiting for you to warm your cockles. Or if you’re a student like me and the thermal, two jumpers, dressing gown, hot water bottle and four…

Satay Style Aubergine

When I was living in Spain, I went through a phase of roasting everything in sight. I think it was probably the excitement of having an oven after 6 months in France sharing 4 hob tops between 30 people.

CocoNUTS for Muesli
