I posted this video on Youtube months ago and totally forgot to put it up here on the website. Sorry about that! It's the recipe for one of my all-time favourite dishes, Keema Curry. (Keema is just lamb mince, so don't be put off by the unfamiliar.) The best thing...
I must tell you that I get thoroughly confused when it comes to supplements. No longer is a simple multivitamin enough; a new superfood or magical health-improving tablet seems to be added to the long list of nutritional "must-haves" every week. And I used to be...
A quick throw-together recipe for a goat's cheese, cherry tomato and basil penne dish - or, as I like to call it, Fridge Scraps Pasta. The first name is probably more appetising, but it seems only fair to refer to this recipe as to what it really is, which is a...
Not really a recipe, more an idea. A passing thought. Namely: how amazing is a Greek salad when you haven't had one in a while? I get sick of feta cheese very easily, especially when I go to Greece on holiday and have it for virtually every meal, but after a bit of...
Two weeks ago I attempted to start running. I say "attempted" because I did two runs and then realised that I was totally and utterly unequipped to take on the challenge. As a total non-runner, I had thought that just sticking on some trainers and downloading an...
I've been trying to cut down my bread intake. Which isn't too much of a faff, apart from the fact that in the mornings I do tend to rely on being able to pop a couple of slices of wholegrain into the toaster and spread on some butter and honey. I can live without...
A little update: I went for a night out with friends this week, after I had already scheduled my NutriBullet review. Four girls, out together - we went to see The Book of Mormon in the West End, it was great fun, thanks for asking! - and naturally I was quite excited...
Continuing along the whole "health and fitness" vein; some useful beauty products that I take with me to the gym. On video for your entertainment - and boy is it entertaining. Especially if you like the word "moist", or want to have the mental image of me doing naked...
And so, when I had only just got my head around the idea of juicing, something else was thrown into the mix: blending. As in smoothies. (But not the mango and papaya sweet-as-you-like things you can buy with your croissants in the morning; we're talking very green and...
It is the year of the slug. Well it is for me, at any rate. I have never been quite so sedentary; whole days - weeks - sat virtually motionless in front of the computer. If an alien landed and peered in through my office window, it would probably think I was dead, but...
I have to say that, despite Mr AMR's scepticism, Gwyneth Paltrow's recipe book, It's All Good, is rather good. Although some may find the introductory chapter a little off-putting (full of ingredients that might seem unfamiliar or difficult to get hold of), once you...
I know that opinions are very divided on the whole "juicing" business, but I wanted to just recap on a few things that I like about it. Things that have changed my diet a little, for the better, and made me think differently about good old garden variety veg. As you...
