Savoury, umami, tangy, sweet and spicy - this is THE BEST DUMPLING SAUCE and it is lip-smacking good! I’ve dialled the flavour just right to make this the only recipe you need.

Bright, grassy matcha meets the natural sweetness of bananas in this delicious twist on classic banana bread. Dedicated to all my fellow matcha lovers. If you love matcha, you will love this!

Basil (and parsley) crepes rolled around creamy, herby Boursin with pops of briny ikura on top, these are beautiful savoury bites to serve for an elevated brunch or party appetizer, just in time to celebrate the warmer season ahead.

Tender and moist banana bread with rich nutty notes from brown butter, brown sugar and cinnamon. Add chocolate chips and/or nuts if you want or keep it unadorned. The crunchy course sugar on top is a non-negotiable!

This Confit Garlic and Scallion Dip is a creamy, savoury dip that combines the rich, mellow sweetness of confit garlic with the bright punchiness of scallions. It’s the kind of thing that has everyone digging in and then asking you for the recipe.

These Breakfast Cookies with Dark Chocolate and Cherries are nutrient-dense and taste like a treat but are made with only wholesome ingredients. They’re naturally sweetened, rich in protein and healthy fats, and made in one bowl. Basically, they taste like a hearty, chewy oatmeal cookie studded with dried cherries and dark chocolate chips - so good for for breakfast or post workout snack.

These Wontons with Yuzu Mayo Shrimp are crunchy, savoury, creamy, spicy and tangy all in one incredible bite. The filling features succulent shrimp, creamy mayonnaise, spicy chili garlic sauce, tangy rice vinegar and aromatic brightness of yuzu juice. I serve these with an easy and delicious dipping sauce — just 4 ingredients of mayo, honey, soy sauce and yuzu juice. Sooo good.

When the crunchy panko topping on a pan of mac and cheese is sooo good, you put it on 6 sides instead of one 😉 Super cheesy on the inside and super crunchy on the outside, the format of these Crunchy Mac and Cheese Bites is so great as a party appetizer or as an element on a charcuterie board. Both adults and kids devour these!

These Sweet Potato Stacks have all the vibes of a classic sweet potato casserole presented in irresistible mini stacks with a crumby streusel topping and deeply caramelized edges aka the best part of roasted sweet potatoes imo!

These Crispy Fried Shrimp Nests are made by wrapping seasoned whole shrimp inside a tangle of shredded spring roll wrapper and deep fried until golden. Lemme tell you, they take crunch to the next level!

This CRISPY RICE SALAD WITH HALLOUMI ticks all the boxes with hella textures and flavours — refreshing crunch of cabbage slaw and cucumber slices, viral crispy rice, buttery-toasted almonds and springy, salty halloumi cheese, all tossed in a sweet spicy tahini dressing. See what mean about it being a salad that delivers it all?

Pommes Anna (or Potato Anna) is a classic French dish of buttery sliced potatoes stacked into a cake-like form that is baked until tender on the inside and crisp on the edges. The signature presentation of a Pommes Anna is flipped over onto a serving dish where the golden brown bottom becomes the top. You must have a really good non-stick pan or a really well-seasoned cast iron pan to pull it off. Do practice this dish before serving it to guests at a dinner party. Once you can comfortably pull this off, it is a rather satisfying culinary triumph!

This BROWN BUTTER APPLE STREUSEL CAKE is tender, brown buttery, and apple-forward thanks to the generous chunks of apples in the batter. It is essentially a classic French Apple Cake where melted butter is replaced with nutty brown butter, and topped with a chunky almond streusel topping. Because if there are two truths I believe in, is that brown butter and streusel are always good ideas!

These Crispy Potato Stacks with Garlic Herb Butter come out of the oven with ruffle-y, crispy edges around a tender and creamy centre. They are the perfect side dish for the holidays or for hosting dinner guests you really want to impress.

Tis the season for cozy meals! And of course, family-friend and easy to make are always in season. This CHICKEN MEATBALLS WITH ROASTED TOMATO AND PEPPER ORZO checks all of those boxes.

This quick-cooking TOMATO PRAWN WAFU PASTA is a Japanese-style pasta recipe that marries a simple Italian fresh tomato sauce and elements of distinctly Japanese flavours in the use of soy sauce, dashi powder (optional but easy to use — read recipe note), fresh shiso leaves and shredded nori for garnish. The best of both worlds!

I have officially dubbed this TOMATO SALAD WITH TOASTED ALMONDS AND DATES the salad of the summer! My summer, at least. And maybe yours too, once you try it. This salad centers thickly sliced, juicy tomatoes, a big handful of baby arugula and an incredible toasted almonds and dates topping. It’s so good there is always inventory shrinkage before it gets to the salad.

This PEACH PISTACHIO FRANGIPANE TART is a summertime spin-off of another beloved tart on the blog, this Apple and Tahini Frangipane Tart. Stone fruits and pistachio are flavour besties!
