Level up your cornbread game with this tender, airy yeast-leavened honey cornbread, a great twist on the classic Southern staple. The bread has a light, airy texture with just right amount of chewiness. Serve it warm with a dollop of ricotta and a drizzle of honey for a simple treat. The bread makes wonderful toast in the morning and great sandwiches too.

These unique cookies are soft, chewy in the middle with crunchy edges and a hint of savory flavour from miso paste. The recipe yields 12 large cookies, adjust the baking time to 10-12 minutes if you want to make 16 smaller cookies. Umami-rich miso works incredibly well with peanut butter, adding a depth of flavour. Creamy peanut butter can be substituted with crunchy if you want a little extra texture. Store the cookies in an airtight container on the counter for 3-4 days.

These kofte served with a light slaw and creamy labneh over warm flatbread are incredibly delicious, flavourful and ridiculously simple to make. A mediterranean-inspired meal perfect for summer evenings. Make them with beef or/and lamb mince. I have threaded kofte with rosemary stems, but you can use metal or bamboo skewers. I prefer to make kofte without any filler, but you certainly can add a slice of finely chopped toasted bread or even plain breadcrumb to the mixture.
Greek Yoghurt Flatbread with Herb Oil

Flatbreads are considered to be the original form of all breads. They are typically made from simple ingredients like flour, water, and salt. It can be leavened or unleavened and vary in texture. Today I am sharing a particularly easy variation using Greek yoghurt and cooked in a skillet instead of oven. Roll them out into any shape you prefer: oblong, oval, or rectangular shape. They go well with soups and kofte, shakshuka, and curry. Or even just with hummus, or tzatziki. But it also tastes delicious on its own with a little herb oil.
Chicken Bhuna

Chicken bhuna is a thick Indian curry cooked in it's own juices. The name Bhuna means ‘fried’ and describes the technique used to prepare the Bhuna chicken. The first step is to heat up the garlic, chillies and spices in ghee. This allows them to develop a slightly smoky, particularly strong flavour. Once they are fragrant, add the onions and tomatoes and braise until they formed a thick, aromatic base. The chicken is then cooked directly in the sauce to soak up the spices. And if that doesn't sound delicious, I don't know what will. This easy, healthy chicken bhuna recipe is great for a weekend treat and is a guaranteed crowd-pleaser.
For ease and quick cooking time I have opted for boneless, skinless chicken thighs, but you can definitely use bone in skin on thighs.

This hearty flaxseed bread is one of easiest sourdough bread that is perfect for beginner bakers. It has a golden crispy crust and a moist, chewy, very flavourful crumb with a noticeable amount of omega-3 fatty acids rich flaxseeds. It makes great sandwiches or morning toast. The bread stays fresh even on the 3rd day.
Thai Salmon Green Curry

Try this creamy, warming one pan salmon for your next curry night! Either use store-bought green curry paste or make your own, you'll be tucking into this delicious, flavoursome dish in no time at all. I used pak choi, but sugar peas, asparagus, broccolini, or zucchini ribbons would all work great. Sweet coconut cream tempers the fiery pungency of green chillies, but feel free to deseed the green chillies if you prefer less heat.
