EASY ROASTED TOMATO SOUP RECIPE

September 24, 2021 No Comments

There is just something about warm, comforting soups that does it for me, especially in the chilly evenings. One of my favourites and most loved soups would have to be my easy roasted tomato soup recipe. Roasting them instead of boiling them just makes a great difference and you retain most of the flavour. If you haven’t tried this version before, then no worries because I am going to share with you my recipe and I know if you’re a soup lover, then ready up the garlic bread because this one is for you. Unlike my butternut squash soup, this one tends to be a lot simpler but very delicious at the same time. Lightly spiced, and all you need is your oven and an immersion blender to do all the work for you. For this recipe, you will need;

ONE POT SAUSAGE AND PASTA RECIPE

September 23, 2021 No Comments

Busy evenings, who doesn’t love them, right? Anyway just joking. If you’re like me and tend to end up rustling up dinner while still thinking of how many million things you still have to do before the day ends, then this one-pot sausage and pasta recipe is one to have on hand. All in one pot, no need of cooking the pasta beforehand and packs a punch when it comes to great flavour. Depending on what kind of sausage you like using, you can pick your favourite but if you can find kielbasa, then I suggest you use that. The last addition of cheese brings this dish altogether and adds a creamy texture that will not disappoint. For this recipe, you will need;

HOW TO MAKE COCONUT MANGO PANNA COTTA

September 20, 2021 No Comments

Hello Friends,

I hope you’re all having a great day today. I am back with a recipe for you on how to make coconut mango panna cotta. This one right here is one pretty dessert and perfect for entertaining too. Since the warmer weather is starting to leave us, one last summery dessert won’t hurt. Both flavours complement each other really well and just makes it look and taste incredibly tropical, making you want a vacation real bad. This is a recipe you would need to start a day to two ahead since you would need to let the first layer set first before adding the second layer, but don’t worry because it’s totally worth it. I also served them in wine glasses but if you have clear ramekins, that would be great too to be able to appreciate the layers. Okay, onto the recipe now. You will need;

MY EASY HOMEMADE CHAPATI RECIPE

May 3, 2021 36 Comments

Hello Everyone,

This past weekend, I decided to relive one of my childhood memories once again when it comes to food and make some chapatis for my family. There are different ways to make them but this is the way I learnt when I was young and I never changed it since they always turn out perfect every time. Back home in Kenya, chapati can be found anywhere and in any restaurant, on most occasions, parties you name it. It’s one of those meals that just has to be there whenever there’s a celebration or most Sundays like in our household. I like pairing mine with some chicken stew, chicken tikka masala, kachumbari and even have one with a nice cup of tea for breakfast. So today I will be sharing with you my easy homemade chapati recipe with some updated pictures. You will need;

SWEET FLUFFY HOMEMADE DINNER ROLLS

February 10, 2021 18 Comments

Hey there,

Gosh, this week seems to be flying pretty quick. I hope you’re all having a good one and managing to accomplish all you wanted to do. Since It’s Wednesday, I always publish a recipe post and today, these sweet fluffy homemade dinner rolls are definitely the ones to try. Honestly, these are my favourite dinner rolls I have ever made and never fail me, and so long as you use the same cup to measure everything, then you will have no failures. Plus they are very good to freeze for up to a month and you just thaw and heat in the microwave or oven. This recipe is one I got from my sister and I think it’s the only one I wrote down because I didn’t want to forget any detail. They smell amazing while baking and even better when eaten warm or room temperature. For the recipe you will need:

How are you all doing today? I hope your week is getting on just fine and staying safe as always. Today I have for you one of my favourite childhood recipes and brings back great memories. Not only did I have this when younger but even now I would still have them anytime when the craving decides to check-in. Now I do know there are different versions of this recipe and other names like “viazi karai” but I am sharing what I know and how I remember them. My Kenyan potato bhajia recipe is what I am talking about, flavourful, spicy and so delicious if I say so myself. You can easily order bhajia in many restaurants in Kenya and they will either come with some ketchup or my other favourite, a tamarind dip which just takes them to another level. For my Kenyan potato bhajia recipe you will need;

Recipe week 3 (Day 5)

Finally we have come to the end, I would have continued up to day 7 but l decided to stop on day 5 and give it a rest since I still have other posts scheduled unrelated to food and are long overdue. I have really enjoyed posting everyday this week and as much as it wasn’t easy with kids and life in general, I managed. Also I call them recipe weeks for a reason which pushes me to be able to do them. So today I am going to share with you my love for chicken wings, like I really LOVE chicken wings and if I had to choose to have them every time I had any chicken dish then I definitely would. My oven baked honey sriracha chicken wings recipe is what I have for you today, sticky, spicy and just finger licking good. You will need;

Recipe week 3 (Day 4)

Guess who? Yes, it’s me again and the week is almost over. We are on day 4 and I am super proud to have been able to do this. Anyway how are you all doing today? I hope all is ok and you’re all getting on just fine. The heat is apparently starting to check in and today was not that comfortable, I mean I do like warmth but not scorching if you know what I mean. I thought tomorrow would be better but apparently it’s going to be even higher than today, I guess outdoor cooling activities are in order. If you remember a while ago, banana bread was everywhere and I don’t know why but I also jumped on that wagon and made this simple perfect moist banana bread. Hence the recipe for today, you will need;

CHEESEBURGER QUESADILLAS

Recipe week 3 (Day 3)

So as promised I am back with another one, I hope you’ve been enjoying my previous ones so far and just in case you’re new here then stop by day 1 and 2 and check out how this recipe week began. Now I don’t know about you but I was never one to be adventurous with coming up with new meals or trying to change out one to be something totally different, but guess what? I totally have it in me and I am liking it. “What do you do when you have left over burger patties?” Cook up some burgers or change it all up and use the meat to make some delicious cheeseburger quesadillas. I mean the obvious thing would be to just whip up the same thing you had the night before, but giving it a new twist makes it much more satisfying. These cheeseburger quesadillas require;
