Roast Apple, Prosciutto and Caramelised Onion Salad

This salad ticks all of the boxes: sweet apples, salty prosciutto and onions and that lovely crunch from the grilled prosciutto. I came up with this salad at the end of last summer, when my usual go-to fruit (figs!) were no longer available, or at least without mortgaging the house.

Gluten-free Broccoli Tabbouleh

More and more people seem to be choosing to follow vegetarian or vegan diets these days. I have several close friends who are always on the lookout for plant-based meals to satisfy their family vegetarian converts while complementing the rest of the family’s more protein-based meals. This gluten-free Broccoli-Tabbouleh is simply delicious. Something different as a mid-week side and because the broccoli is pulsed raw, it’s ‘tough’ enough to withstand the acidity of the dressing, so it can easily survive a day in the fridge once it’s dressed.

Paleo Seed and Nut Bread

Bread is such a staple of life and partner in life’s celebrations. Its differing forms are wonderful expressions of the characters and lifestyles of the people that it feeds, all telling a different story. I hope this recipe helps fill a gap in your family’s diet, if like us, for health reasons, you’ve had to abstain from gluten bread.

Gluten-free Sweet Potato Gnocchi with Garlic & Sage Burnt Butter Sauce

I have always loved pasta. For me it’s the culinary equivalent of a warm, cashmere jumper, woolly pair of socks and a cuddle. Especially when teamed with a glass of red on a chilly evening… the ultimate in comfort food.This gluten-free, paleo version of gnocchi is absolutely amazing and if you keep your hand very light when mixing all of the ingredients, you will find yourself with the most delectable, soft and cushiony gnocchi.

Spicy Mango Fish

I came up with this recipe during those few magical weeks of summer holidays in Australia, where time stands still and the lazy metronome of cicadas and mosquitos plays its languid soundtrack to days spent at the beach, the sting of sea salt, sand and sun, catching up with family and friends over long, leisurely meals and the comforting reburgeoning of life in suburban backyards and gardens. I decided that coming up with something quick and new for dinner with a glass of cold kombucha or rose in hand was easier than rushing off to buy a whole set of fresh ingredients. My spicy mango fish captures the sweetness and easiness of summer. I hope you love this recipe as much as my family does.
