Cinnamon Popovers
Sundays are ideal to induldge yourself in breakfast. But Sundays are usually also lazy…sleeping in, recovering from a litte bit too much partying on Saturdays. Although Sundays are usually the days where I spend a bit more time on breakfast, equally, the recipes should be lazy and not cost me too much time. Pancakes are…
Prawns, Carrot Puree, Black Garlic Sauce, Cape Gooseberries & Red Quinoa
This recipe is a real health booster, but it is equally delicious. We all know the health benefits of carrots, which are full of beta-carotene (antioxidant) and fiber. But this recipe combines a few other super foods that result in a delicious umami explosion that will surprise you: Black garlic: all the benefits of normal…
The Ultimate Veggie Burger: Vada Pav
It’s not hard to be a vegetarian in India. Anthony Bourdain, who was a notorious meat lover, once said that he could consider going vegetarian in just on place on earth: India, “where being a vegetarian is not a burden”. Indian cuisine uses a mix of assertive spice blends (massala’s) and different textures to create…

The flavors melt together in an Indian…

It is rare that a restaurant keeps the quality of food and the overall experience high consistently, and Niven is a restaurant that never disappoints. I also love the concept of…
Miso Aubergines with Fried Rice
Another super easy recipe for the weekdays. It’s delicious, vegetarian and gets you your daily intake of veggies. Aubergines are the star of this recipe. They are glazed with miso and baked in the oven until they are very tender. I have combined this with a simple and easy to make fried rice recipe, which…
Asian Iberico Secreto Sous Vide with Bok Choy & Shiitake Mushrooms
I am quite hesitant to cook with pork. Done well, pork can be a delicious type of meat. BBQ pork belly buns are my special guilty pleasure. I never quite figured out how they can keep the pork belly so succulent whilst creating that heavenly outer layer of caramelized, crispy and sweet goodness. More often…
