Approximately 1 hr prep & heating time Happy December! ‘Tis really the season and what a perfect idea to spend the first weekend and the first post of this month with some mulled wine! Warm, spiced wine, as it basically is, is very popular and people from different parts of the world have their ownContinue reading “Mulled Wine”

Easy Crepe Recipe (unsweetened)

Yields 6 crepes • 30 mins prep & cooking time Happy Sunday! This post (and most likely many more to come) is especially dedicated to Mahal. I had a different recipe in mind for today’s post but I thought I’d publish this one first so he can just come to this blog whenever he wantsContinue reading “Easy Crepe Recipe (unsweetened)”

Clotted Cream

2 days prep & baking time I love scones and biscuits! And it was when I randomly watched Jamie Oliver’s brief scone recipe video that I first heard of clotted cream. I know for sure that butter goes really well with a freshly baked, warm scone so seeing him spread a generous amount of thatContinue reading “Clotted Cream”

Vodka + Cran

This is a classic college favourite of ours back when I was in school. Now, even after those days, I still love this drink and it is one of my favorites. I get plenty of nostalgia every time I am having this drink. It’s also very easy to make, simple, and the cranberry juice canContinue reading “Vodka + Cran”

Banana Bread Bites

Vegetarian • Peanut free • 1hr prep & baking time We had 2 bananas lying around in the kitchen that were really overripe so I thought I’d make a small batch of banana bread instead. I love storing food in jars so I baked these using a cupcake molder instead of a loaf pan (thus,Continue reading “Banana Bread Bites”

Dark Rum Mojito

There was always whisky, lemon, I have a mint plant and after a quick Google consultation, the verdict was a mojito cocktail. Fast forward to today,Continue reading “Dark Rum Mojito”

Tex Mex Cornmeal Biscuits

Greyhound Fizz

Dayumm, I’m really putting a lot of effort into this recipe blog project that I put very serious work into taking my own and editing my own photos (lol). I even tried adding a watermark on this one specifically just to see how it will look! Might need to work more on blending, but IContinue reading “Greyhound Fizz”

Panko-Coconut Shrimp

2 servings • 1.5 hr prep & cooking time For this one, I used desiccated coconut because it’s what we had handy. Usually, shredded coconut is what’s popularly used. I also experimented with adding panko breadcrumbs (thus Panko-Coconut) to make the coconut flavour less overwhelming while adding a bit more crunchiness to it too. ForContinue reading “Panko-Coconut Shrimp”
