Sponge cake is always a winner. Despite its humble flavour and basic nature, it always sounds comforting and inviting. Although generally, a sponge cake gets its lightness from egg whites we found a way around the slightly laborious process when we discovered this recipe.

Steamed Mango Pudding
This week I’m sharing the recipe for this humble Steamed Mango pudding. Nothing fancy, no rare or expensive ingredients, hell, it doesn’t even need an oven.

Sausage Pie
I’ve got the easiest recipe for the best pie ever made in history. This Sausage pie is a class apart and yet, it isn’t demanding, of your time or effort. Okay, I’ll be clear from the start, I used ready-made puff pastry and why not? I found a great option and it saved me tonnes […]
Zucchini Bread
I haven’t posted here in a while. I’ve been trying to find a balance between my love for baking and keep my weight off. If the calories didn’t count, I’d gladly bake 24/7 and eat it all up too. But sigh… This zucchini bread seemed to be a good reminder of the basic changes I […]
