A Simple Beetroot Salad with Goat’s Cheese

Beetroot and goat cheese salad

Ever since I can remember my mum would always ensure that, when in season, we have beetroot salad on the table.

Avocado Jelly Salad

A box of Fuerte Avocados

When I grew up, the family would gather on a Sunday for lunch. Everyone will be responsible for bringing one salad and one meat dish so it almost always resulted in someone bringing some form of jelly salad. My most favourite one is the Avocado Jelly Salad.

Moroccan-style Chicken with Bulgar Wheat

I can still remember the first time I had Moroccan food. I was in South Kensington with my cousin. I cannot remember what I had that night, but I do remember coming home and thinking: ‘wow! that was bloody fantastic!’

Pea and Mint Risotto

Pea and Mint risotto with parmesan

Pea and Mint is a wonderful summer combination. Along with a squeeze of lime, it really makes this risotto come alive.

Pasta Salad with Avocado

Bacon and Avocado Pasta

In South Africa we bought avocados by the case. It is for that reason that I love making this recipe.
