Cirque Beserk … I did not expect this in a tiny makeshift theatre in a fringe festival. A great night out with the family. The motorbikes were incredible! I couldn’t believe 5 bikes did stunts in that tiny circle. (at Edinburgh Fringe) https://www.instagram.com/p/ChAud__IaRAMYcyWxwFB8vmnKNAW-ZB_T8QDcw0/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

What an incredible show! We bought tickets in Oct 2019 and finally got to see the Edinburgh Military Tattoo! @edinburghtattoo was worth the wait and more! I’m still in awe (at The Royal Edinburgh Military Tattoo) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cg9IoT4I5fGiHXtQRRL4p6W3qufRdhTjSswp7o0/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

When I’m sick, I want curry. Maybe it’s because my mom made the best curry ever and I always used to ask her for lamb curry when I was sick. For my kids, it’s chicken soup. In this past pic, I made lamb and potato curry with veg couscous and roasted cauliflower. Today, I want this curry old school style with sambals (tamatie en uie (tomato and onion) or carrot, date and apple) and a pile of buttery roti. Let’s not forget the blatjang (chutney) or Mrs Ball’s chutney. And delivery just isn’t the same. For comfort to me, nothing beats a pot of slow-cooked, homemade curry. What’s your comfort food? #foodblogger #ukfoodie #ukfoodblogger #southafricanink #edinburghfoodie #curry #lambcurry #comfortfoods (at Edinburgh, United Kingdom) https://www.instagram.com/p/CbFRWFXIPAz/?utm_medium=tumblr

I can’t believe my baby girl is 18 today. It’s more emo than I expected. Gosh, what a wonderful young woman she’s turned out to be. @aaliyahhprice you bring so much love and joy to the world. Your cute laugh and goofiness, your strong, sharp mind, sense of right and wrong and ambition. Most of all, your love and loyalty. We are so lucky to have you to share our adventures with. It’s nearly time for you to go off to university (I’m already emo) and while I don’t want to let you go, I know that the world needs to see and experience your light. Go forth and live, love, laugh and find your joy my baby girl. I wish you only the best in love, health, happiness and the success you dream of. Happy 18th birthday my Aaliyah ❤️ (at Edinburgh, United Kingdom) https://www.instagram.com/p/Ca1zZDpIp28CfkuBbC_HagQN23UxBZVYtuyPzI0/?utm_medium=tumblr

Salted caramel and bourbon tart in a sablée crust, served with banana and passion fruit sorbet. Gosh, this came out so much better than I expected. So good. I’ve been trying to up my tart game. I’m just steadily working on getting that pastry exactly how I want it to be. As with everything, I make it and I take away learnings from it. The sablée pastry is from Michel Roux’s desserts book and is my fave sablée recipe thus far. I used a technique for creating the case so it doesn’t need blind-baking, which I saw @nicolaalamb @thedessertlab.co and @spatuladesserts use. Then, the filling is an adaptation of a recipe by Colin McGurran on @gbchefs and so is the banana and passion fruit sorbet. Of course shout out to @lyresspiritco for their family / teetotal friendly non-alcoholic American Malt bourbon. #carameltart #saltedcaramel #bananaicecream #passionfruit #plateddesserts #plateddessert #patesablee #dessertpic #sugarlove #ukfood #gbchefsrecipes #ukfoodblogger #edinburghfoodie #foodblogfeed #pastrylover #pastrylove #pastrychefs #pastrychef #instapastry (at Edinburgh, United Kingdom) https://www.instagram.com/p/Car0rVwoUK-/?utm_medium=tumblr

My favourite South African pudding - malva pudding. It’s a lush sponge drenched in butter sauce with hints of caramel. It’s SA’s answer to sticky toffee pudding. I’ve paired it with blood orange confit and home made vanilla ice cream. A deliciously rich hot / cold pudding combo.

I adore blood oranges. It’s great how easy it is to get them when in season in the UK too! So, of course, I had to make desserts with it. Here’s blood orange terrine with blood orange sorbet and blood orange sherbet. It’s a slight variation of the @raymondblanc orange carpaccio recipe on @gbchefs #edinburghfoodbloggers #edinburghfood #ukfoodie #eattheseasons #bloodorange #bloodoranges #sorbet #terrine #sherbet #ukfoodies #ukfoodblog #dessertgram #sweetgram #raymondblanc (at Edinburgh, United Kingdom) https://www.instagram.com/p/CamoZGxI7ZU/?utm_medium=tumblr

**Recipe Alert** my grandfather’s 60 year old pannekoek recipe. Happy pancake day! I made American style pancakes with Nutella and raspberries and South African pannekoek (pancakes) with cinnamon sugar. Check the post caption for the recipe. I grew up on pannekoek - a fluffy, spongey and slightly thicker version of a crepe. It’s served at fairs, markets, made at home when baby first cuts its teeth (for everyone else but baby to eat it 😜) and is made anytime of the day to serve with tea or coffee. Traditionally, they’re served with cinnamon sugar rolled inside and a squeeze of a lemon or orange wedge for that acidity but you can fill them with sweet or savory fillings of your choice (Cape Malay curry veg or chicken, mushroom and spinach, spiced apples, caramel and banana, etc). Like with most things, I like it the old school way. Here’s a 60 year old recipe for PANNEKOEK that my grandfather shared with my mom and then with me. In a blender, add: 1 egg 2 Tbl spoon melted butter 2 cups milk Pinch salt 1 cup all purpose flour 1 1/2 tsp baking powder Leave for 30 minutes before frying. Place pan on medium to high heat. Add a tsp butter to a non stick pan. Add a ladle of mixture to the pan and swirl to coat the bottom. When bubbles appear on top of the pancake, flip it over in the pan with a spatula. Let it cook for 2 minutes or r until lightly browned. Sprinkle pancakes with a mixture of 1 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon with 1/2 cup caster sugar, then roll up. Serve with a squeeze of fresh lemon or orange.

It’s pancake day next week… I’m sharing my family’s pannekoek recipe with you. Panne = pan + koek = cake. The Dutch brought it to South Africa centuries ago when the colonised us. (I like to think that we perfected the recipe. 😉) It’s like a crepe but slightly thicker and spongier. It’s something you can find at every market where the stall is run by a group of women, standing at gas stoves and wielding pans like experts as they flip one pannekoek after the next. They’re traditionally served with cinnamon sugar and a good squeeze of lemon (yeah - I hear yah “salt, fat, acid, heat @ciaosamin ) It’s a simple recipe but in my humble opinion, sometimes simple things give the greatest pleasure. Here’s the recipe to try out: In a blender, add: 1 egg 2 Tbl spoon melted butter 2 cups milk Pinch salt 1 cup flour 1 1/2 tsp baking powder Leave for 30 minutes before frying. Place pan on medium to high heat. Add a tsp butter to a non stick pan. Add a ladle of mixture to the pan and swirl to coat the bottom. When bubbles appear on top of the pancake, flip it over in the pan with a spatula. Let it cook for 2 minutes or until lightly browned. Sprinkle pancakes with a mixture of ground cinnamon with sugar, then roll up.Serve with a squeeze of fresh lemon or orange. Or fill it with whatever sweet or savoury filling you wish for. Geniet!

Rhubarb consommé, poached rhubarb, blood orange 🍊 confit, rhubarb crisp, rhubarb ice cream 🍨 and a set cream. 🍧 I was intrigued by the pretty dessert and the idea of a rhubarb consommé. The forced rhubarb season is perfect for this dessert. #rhubarb #plateddesserts #plateddessert #dessertsofinstagram #dessertshots #foodieblogger #foodieheaven #instafoodblogger #ukfoodie #edinburghfoodbloggers #ukfoodblog #foodiefeature #edinburghfood #foodbloggersofinstagram #platingdessert #platingfood #seasonalfood #foodielover #foodshare #springmenu #icecreamlove #pink #homemadedessert #edinburghfood #edinburghchef #pastrychefs (at Edinburgh, United Kingdom) https://www.instagram.com/p/CaAeBnNovQW/?utm_medium=tumblr

Fancy plated churros… churros, miso chocolate ganache, chocolate crumb and burnt sugar ice cream. Omg people - that ice cream 🔥 is it! I’ve been offline the past few weeks because our little pom had an op, I’ve been doing some stuff around the house and also figuring out where I want to go with my career change now that I’ve graduated from culinary school. It’s a super exciting new chapter but I want to get it right. Apply the same drive I had in corporate with my passion for food and newly acquired skills from the past two years. Today, my Valentine’s act of self-love / self-care was to spend a few hours in the kitchen playing with toys and machines and making my slight adaptation of this dessert by @thedessertlab.co using @callebautchocolate It’s a fancy churro and so so so darn good. My favorite component is without doubt the burnt sugar ice cream. I’ve finished it just in time to treat my kids and their friends before I go off on a date with my hot husband. Have a fantastically awesome V Day. ❤️ I’ll catch up on all of your posts tomorrow. #dessertlab #dessert #plateddesserts #plateddessert #platedpics #churrosgourmet #churros #miso #ganache #ganachedechocolate #chocolatedessert #edinburghchef #edinburghpastrychef #pastryporn #pastrypassion #ukfoodie #ukfoodblogger #edinburghfood #edinburghfoodie #ukfoodblog #dessertporn #dessertpic #valentinesdessert (at Edinburgh, United Kingdom) https://www.instagram.com/p/CZ92jlaICAS/?utm_medium=tumblr

Savoury Crowdie Panna Cotta. With Burns Night around the corner, I’m seeing a lot more local produce in stores and that’s pretty awesome. I’m in love with this Scottish cheese - crowdie.

** recipe ** Cardamom Burnt Cheesecake with saffron roasted rhubarb, orange confit, almond crumbs and orange and saffron sauce. 🍊 Swipe for recipe. I love the silky smooth texture of a basque cheesecake. The tartness of the rhubarb, acid from the oranges, sweetness from the sauce and bitterness from the confit rind all melded beautifully. The saffron and cardamom take it to another level. #cardamom #basquecheesecake #burntcheesecake #rhubarb #rhubarbcake #forcedrhubarb #rhubarbseason #bloodoranges #bloodorange #plateddesserts #plateddessert #ukfood #edinburghfoodbloggers #ukfoodblogger (at Edinburgh, United Kingdom) https://www.instagram.com/p/CYygT97omEK/?utm_medium=tumblr
