Bread Pudding with Strawberry & Mulberry Sauce

If you love bread pudding, then this recipe is perfect for you. Its a super simple recipe to follow and comes out amazing with some fresh brioche bread, creamy egg custard and sweet-tangy strawberry-mulberry sauce. This pudding works really well as both dessert and breakfast any time of the year. 

To be honest preparing this recipe from scratch is a bit of effort but with fresh ingredients, it's worth it. For this recipe you mostly need a soft & moist sweet bread like challah or croissants. I have used a brioche loaf in my recipe and based on what is available to you, feel free to swap it for any sweet bread of your choice. So, if you are looking for a simple recipe to satisfy your sweet tooth on a cheat day breakfast or you are in the mood for a special dessert, then this is the recipe for you! I know I loved it, let me know how it came out for you.

Pitaya Smoothie Bowl

A smoothie bowl is a quick, easy to make, one bowl meal packed with a lot of nutrition and flavour. It is the perfect start to your day with an energy packed breakfast. I strongly believe that your meal needs to look as beautiful as it tastes and the bright colour of pitaya or dragon fruit is perfect for this. Pitaya is an excellent source of antioxidants, low in calories and a nutrient dense fruit. It doesn't have much of a natural flavour to it, which is why it is perfect when mixed with a variety of frozen fruits like banana, mango and berries. This makes an excellent and delicious bowl for your breakfast or snack. Frozen banana creates a creamy sweet base, while mango gives a classic tropical fruity flavour. If you prefer your smoothie to be more creamy like me, freeze all the fruits and add little ice. You can also add some protein powder if you want to add a bit more nutrition to your smoothie 👌.  ...

Glühwein / Mulled wine

Glühwein or mulled wine is a German/Austrian holiday drink that most people have during the winter season. This   alcoholic beverage is a must-have during the festive season here. Interestingly, this wine is also known as glow wine as it is warm and when you drink it, it makes you glow from the inside. It's a warm & cozy wine infused with spices and citrusy flavours which is perfect for the cold and freezing winter weather. I stumbled upon this wine during my first Christmas in the Netherlands last year (2019). They were lighting the Christmas tree at the city center and the streets were crowded and lined by food carts selling delicious Christmas treats, desserts and warm  Glühwein. This year however, we are under a strict lockdown due to the ongoing pandemic and with everything shutdown we couldn't experience the beautiful Christmassy vibe outdoors. So, I decided to bring the Christmas vibe indoors and made my own batch of this cozy, warm drink. So, here you ...

Roasted Chicken & Sweet Potato in Coconut Curry

Sweet potatoes are my one of my favorites. It brings me joy very much like candy for children 😁😁😁 and I had some leftover from a previous recipe on this particular day.

Falafal Flatbread with Classic Hummus & Veggie Topping

These are perfect as a snack or a party platter. I love falafal and falafal in the form of a flatbread is just wow.  There is no actual falafal in this recipe but the ingredients used to make falfal like chickpea, cumin, garlic, parsley, coriander, olive oil are used to make this flat bread.  I used hummus and some salad veggies as topping and just fell in love with it. You can also use yogurt or muhammara dip. I actually used two kinds of dip here, on one of the flat breads I added some pizza sauce to the base with salad vegges as topping and for the second one I used hummus. I honestly loved both of them. You can pick your favorite 😊😊.  It was a complete hit with my family and friends and we enjoyed it thoroughly. Hope you all enjoy this recipe as mush as we did. Do let me know in the comments below how you like this recipe 😊😊😊. https://www.instagram.com/p/CC0xKvRjzmt/ ...
