I’m a veggie burger snob. There, I said it. Nothing compares to a veggie burger packed with a delicious combo of spices, herbs and quality extras. I have a few dozen personal burger laws.

I have a massive soft spot for hot desserts: Chocolate lava cake, sticky toffee pudding, gulab jamun and ice cream, seeroh and cold cream and of course, churros and chocolate.

Coconut, pistachio, rose, saffron, cardamom and chocolate are firm faves, with chocolate topping the list …

My first memories of cooking with cauliflower began at the supermarket where mum trained me in how to pick the freshest veggies for our homemade vegetarian feasts – all reliant on the senses. Think …
The code has been well and truly cracked. People all over the place are making gorgeous French macarons sans eggs and it’s downright remarkable.
