Chicken 65

Chicken 65 is a popular South Indian chicken appetizer that originated at the iconic Buhari Hotel in Chennai, Tamil Nadu, in 1965. It was named after the year of its invention, 1965. Chicken 65 is flavour-packed, incredibly delicious and has just the right amount of heat. You can also serve it as the main with rice or naan.
If you can’t find fresh curry leaves, dried one would work too. Soak them for 10 minutes in water before using. Don’t feel like frying, then airfry them at 200C/400F for 6-8 minutes until cooked through.

These Middle Eastern inspired lamb burgers are juicy, delicious and full of complex flavours. If you don’t have baharat or za'atar, then use a teaspoon of cumin, ½ teaspoon of each cardamon and cinnamon instead. Cook lamb patties to the rare or medium-rare so they will remain moist. Burger patties, pickled onions, pesto and mayo can be made the day before and kept covered in the fridge.

Low in calories, gluten-free and full of flavour - this easy recipe is ideal for anyone who wants to eat light and healthily without sacrificing taste. When it’s hot outside and you find yourself craving lighter meals, zucchini spaghetti with pesto is the perfect choice. This dish looks just like pasta, tastes wonderfully fresh, just like a salad, and at the same time, is low in carbohydrates, gluten free and quick to prepare.
Zoodles also taste brilliant raw – especially in summer as a cold dish with cold pesto. So you can simply mix them with the pesto straight after cutting. Instead of mozzarella minis, you can also use pan fried haloumi, tofu or boiled eggs.

Pesto Zucchini Roses

These zucchini roses are as easy to make as they are tasty! The puff pastry is cut into strips, layered with a homemade basil pesto, mozzarella cheese and zucchini slices, and rolled into a flower-like spirals. They are great as an appetizer or an afternoon tea snack. To prevent zucchini from making the pastry soggy, you need to draw out its excess moisture before baking. Line a large baking sheet with paper towels, arrange the zucchini slices on top in a single layer, sprinkle with salt, and let them sit for 15 minutes. The salt draws the moisture out of the zucchini, concentrating its flavour as well as preseasoning it. Dry them thoroughly before layering them with the pesto and the puff pastry. If you want to use frozen puff pastry from the store, thaw the puff pastry overnight in the refrigerator. These zucchini roses are best enjoyed fresh and warm. Store any leftover in the fridge for a couple of days.

An easy recipe for Provence-inspired apricot and lavender jam packed with flavour perfect for toast, pastries and desserts. A knob of butter is added to the jam to reduce foaming and to prevent from burning as the fruit and sugar boil.
If you prefer your apricot jam on the chunky side, leave the pitted apricots as halves. I added some honey instead of sugar and 2/3 teaspoon of dried lavender to increase flavour complexity. Apricots, lavender and honey are a match made in culinary heaven.

Ranch Dressing Chicken

These tender yet crispy ranch roast chicken drumsticks are tangy, perfectly herby, delicious and so flavorful, and ready in under an hour with less than 10 minutes of prep. Usually ranch dressing is used to toss salads or as a dip, but it also works great as a flavorful marinade for chicken thanks to the acid in buttermilk. Homemade ranch dressing with fresh herbs offers vibrant, bright flavour and freshness that store-bought alternatives can’t match. If you want to use store-bought one, then try adding some fresh herbs for a pop of green colour and aromatic depth.

This tasty Asian inspired marinade is quick to prepare and works beautifully with any cut of steak and will result in steaks that are savoury, sweet, and loaded with flavour. This is another wonderful option to add to your rotation of Thai food to make at home. Serve it with a fresh seasonal salad of your choice. The bird's eye chillies are significantly hotter than common red chillies, deseed them if you prefer a milder sauce.

Crustless Cherry Radish Quiche

A crustless quiche is quite simply baked eggs (just like Italian frittata) and literally anything else you want to throw in, but no fussy pastry to chill or roll. It’s easy, delicious, naturally gluten free and perfect for breakfast, brunch or picnic. Don’t toss those peppery radish greens which are great in salads, blended into pesto or saute them just like you sauteed spinach. I have turned the radish tops into a pesto and served with quiche. A zero waste meal!

Airfryer Chinese 5-Spiced Pork Belly

Tuesday, April 28, 2026

Moisture is the enemy of crispy pork belly skin, so the trick to super crispy pork crackling is placing the pork belly in the fridge overnight or up to 3 days to help to dry out the skin and maximise the crackle. Make the most of your air fryer and enjoy pork belly in minutes of cooking rather than hours in the oven. This pork belly is meltingly tender and crispy all at the same time. It is seasoned with Chinese five spice for extra flavour. But if you don’t have the spice blend, just use salt and pepper.

Persimmon and Frisée Salad with Goat Cheese

Are you looking for a quick salad that is fresh, delicious and full of flavour? Then this frisée salad with persimmon and goat cheese is just right for you. This salad not only tastes great, it also looks pretty. Frisée lettuce can be stacked attractively on a plate thanks to its curly, frizzy texture. The tangy, earthy flavour of goat cheese provides a delightful contrast to the sweet and crunchy texture of ripe persimmons while the apple cider vinegar dressing emphasises the fruity sweetness. I prefer the goat cheese as it is, but you can try brushing the goat cheese rounds with 1-2 teaspoons of honey and roast at 200C/400F for 8-10 minutes.
