Autumn

Rhubarb Jam...so good with lots of stuff

Rhubarb Jam

I love rhubarb jam, I use it on waffles, on yoghurt, on toast and wherever I can because it is very, very good for you.

Very Icelandic and often made out of leftover porridge and fresh blueberries in

Blueberry Patties

Every mum and granny (and some dads and granddads) know how to make patties made out of leftover porridge or rice pudding. They are called "lummur" in Icelandic.

One of my favourite pies, packed with protein and calcium

Vegetable Pie with Nut and Seeds Crust

This one is perfect if you are gluten intolerant but still want some pie. I love that you can make pies without using pastry (wheat, butter and all that).

I make this dish often in the autumn when root vegetables are at their best

Oven Baked Root Vegetables

There is nothing better than preparing this dish with your own vegetables from the garden.

Every time I visit East Africa I always ask for the local Kitheri

Kitheri - Kenyan Vegetable Stew

Just like the Italians have different Bruschetta for every region in Italy, so do the Kenyans have for Kitheri.

My favourite nut loaf. It is an absolute winner every time

Curry Nut Loaf

This is my favourite nut loaf. It is originally from a book called World Food Cafe in London. The cafe is amazing and so is the book, I definitely recommend both!

A lovely Indian vegetable dish

Sweet Potatoes and Spinach

If your haemoglobin levels are low, this recipe is perfect because you have iron in the spinach and vitamin C in the sweet potatoes.

I often make a large batch of these patties and freeze for later use

Hazelnut and Vegetable Patties with Yoghurt Dressing

These patties are lovely, especially since they contain hazelnuts...and I love hazelnuts. You can however use cashew nuts instead or even almonds if you prefer.

Simple and healthy, always a good combination

Oven Baked Vegetables with Pasta

A very simple and cheap dish, perfect for the mid week headache of "what should I have for dinner?".

A very healthy dish, packed with antioxidants, vitamins, protein and calcium

Kenyan Baked Eggplant and Tomatoes

Eggplants and tomatoes are widely used in Kenya and are actually a good combination as you will find in this hearty dinner perfect for a lazy afternoon.
