Cheesy Sausage and Runny Egg Muffins

These aren’t your average breakfast muffins. These cheesy sausage muffins have a beautiful runny egg inside a savory, tender, fluffy sausage and cheese muffin. They are ready in 30 minutes and perfect for breakfast, brunches, or snacks! For boiled eggs, use older eggs as they are easier to peel. Use smoked salmon instead of sausage if you prefer and smoked tofu if you are a vegetarian. The boiled eggs can be done a day before. Next day, freeze the unpeeled eggs in the freezer for not more than 30 minutes while you prepare the batter. This way, the eggs are cold and will stay runny after baking.
Everyday Spiced Chicken and Radishes
Friday, March 27, 2026| |

This easy chicken recipe is especially delicious and vibrant, with peppery radishes absorbing the savoury drippings of the chicken. It's a budget and healthy dinner that's easy to make for the family yet impressive enough for company. I like to toss the greens of the radishes with the pan juices until just wilted because they take on tons of flavour and provide the perfect bitter contrast. If the radish leaves ain’t fresh enough, you can use spinach or other greens. Or simply use arugula as the orginal recipe suggested.
If you’ve never roasted a radish, you’re seriously missing out. Eaten raw, radishes are crunchy in texture with a distinctively peppery bite, but once roasted and absorbed the luxurious chicken schmaltz, they are sweet, earthy and mellow...just like low-carb potatoes.

A refreshing and vibrant salad combining crunchy carrots, peppery arugula, and juicy oranges is so versatile and can be enjoyed all year round. Use young and organic carrots if possible.
The savory granola with walnuts, seeds, and ras el hanout is full of wonderful flavours and add a delicious crunch to this Moroccan carrot salad. I strongly recommend you to double the granola and save some for roasted vegetables, cheese, soups or simply as a snack. Store in an air-tight jar in room temperature for up to a month.

Thai Massaman Beef Curry
Saturday, March 21, 2026| |

Massaman curry is a classic Thai curry of Muslim origin and traditionally it’s loaded with potatoes. I have simply skipped them and used 2 onions, but you can use radishes, kohlraib or even cucumber instead. If you are short in time, use a ready-made massaman curry paste. This recipe calls for braising beef, however, you can make this with beef ribs, lamb shanks, chicken, pork or even tofu too. Just be sure to adjust the cooking time accordingly. If you are sensitive to peanuts, simply omit them or use cashew nuts instead.
Massaman means "Muslim" and is derived from a now-archaic English term "Mussulman," highlighting its origins as a fusion dish brought by Persian or Malay traders.
Spelt Bread with Walnuts and Raisins

Crispy and fresh from the oven – that's how we like our bread best. This delicious homemade spelt bread with walnuts and raisins relies on long, slow fermentation with just a little yeast to develop gluten and flavour, rather than manual kneading. A 24-hour fermentation help develop a deeper, more complex, sourdough-like flavour and makes the bread more digestible. If you bake this bread in summer or your kitchen is very warm, or simply because you want to delay baking even longer, you can leave the dough rise in the refrigerator. I left mine in the refrigerator for the last 4 hours and the sticky dough was actually much easier to work with when it’s cold.

This easy, rustic galette features a flaky homemade spelt-rye crust filled with herby goat cheese and ras el hanout carrots. The crispy texture and slight sweetness of shaved carrots complement the earthy and woody flavours of ras el hanout. The free-form galette is so easy to make and requires no special tart pan as it’s baked directly on a baking sheet, and the charm lies in their imperfection. It’s less fancy, but delicious and beautiful enough makes a perfect centerpiece for a spring table!

Pakistani Prawn Karahi Masala

A prawn karahi curry is a seafood alternative on the more traditional and popular chicken or lamb Karahi. A quick and deliciously moreish curry with a thick, rich, flavoursome masala sauce that will have you going back for more. Karahi masala is named after the steep-sided, wok-like pot in which this dish would traditionally be cooked. Though the word karahi refers to the cooking vessel, it is also a synonym for a thick tomato-ginger masala sauce. The karahi curries are very popular in the Indian subcontinent, specifically Pakistan and North India. Prawn Karahi is traditionally served hot, garnished with fresh coriander and ginger juliennes, often accompanied by rice or naan.
