Island girl making the love of food more affordable..
Meals just for two, staying in instead of going out. Set the mood with a special meal that inspires romance, a little wine and great company.
Tell the truth, Curry Fried Wings sounds amazing right? I absolutely love curry. It’s one of my favourite spices and I am sure to love a recipe that has curry in it. As for chicken, the wings are the way to go. It’s my favorite part of the chicken. It only seemed fitting that I […]
Creamy Oxtail Meatballs & Spaghetti is the result of weeks and hours of brainstorming how to transform oxtail. In Jamaica Oxtail is basically a staple yet has the novelty of a specialty dish. The value of oxtail is high, not just on your pocket but also your plate. It’s that dish we go to for […]
It’s been eight years since I’ve cooked with Balsamic vinegar and I have no idea why it’s been so long. It may have taken awhile to get back here but it’s as good as I remember. It wasn’t drastically different in taste which was comforting yet had a unique tanginess that brought some variety to […]
One of my absolute favourite sauce is honey garlic. Any food or recipe with garlic and honey has me hooked. It’s so simple yet really flavourful which is all a girl could ask for. You’ll find a few recipes on my site with honey garlic sauce because it’s so delicious and transformative. The newest addition […]
Chicken Steak Fettuccine was inspired by my love for Chinese and Italian food. I have crazy cravings lately, maybe its from being in lockdown and working from home. This pandemic has taught me to make more of my restaurant favourites at home. It’s still good to eat out occasionally and support local business but cooking […]
Let me tell you a little story about this dish. Something so simple, light, flavourful and fun started out very complicated. In hindsight I think it was still becoming, mentally I was still feeling it out until I embraced what it was going to be. Sounds very philosophical for a popular shrimp recipe but sometimes […]
This recipe was inspired by my need to use up items from my refrigerator that I love but I don’t use often. I am sure you know exactly what I am talking about. You have a jar or bottle of something that you bought for a recipe or maybe you had every intention of using […]
In honour of this Cinco De Mayo I present the Pizza Taco. I played around with a couple names like Pizzaco or Tacizza but settled on keeping it nameless. Like all good things it starts off with an idea that for reasons unbeknownst to us go completely out the window. Sometimes our deviations don’t work […]
Why are wings so special? I think wings are my favorite part of the chicken. Very strange because it’s the smallest part of the chicken and there’s barely any meat there. However, maybe that’s what makes it so yummy and flavorful. I think based on the size and texture it absorbs seasonings and herbs very […]
I love how playful and fun this was to make. Just your unassuming afternoon trying to figure out what to eat. Decided to raid the fridge and found that I had everything I could ever need to make a really yummy dish.I find that’s often some of my best recipes, the unplanned, no rules, no […]
