FRENCH YOGURT CAKE

Now here is a perfect snacking cake that you can have for breakfast, lunch or dinner. I found this French yogurt cake by Bon Appetit when I was bounded with some extra yogurt a week passed its expiry date. I was able to save it and put it to good use in the form of a cake! Pleased with myself.

SPICY TUNA POTATO SALAD

Summer is officially here in Vancouver! And with summer comes BBQs, tailgates, and more. My spicy tuna potato salad is a definite crowd pleaser. Creamy, spicy, herby - yum!

SOM TAM

One of my favourite salads to make in the summertime: som tam! Crunchy, salty, spicy, sweet, sour, umami - all of those things are absolutely present in this dish. It’s a total crowd pleaser and it’s guaranteed there won’t be any leftovers surviving after trying this.

BEEF CALDERETA

I’m still in disbelief that I made beef caldereta! My dad used to always make this dish for me as a kid it was definitely #1 for Filipino dishes. It’s rich, it’s savoury, it’s totally comforting…it’s my own version. So excited to share this with you all!

AMARANTH COOKIES

I’ve finally found a recipe that uses the bag of amaranth that’s been sitting in my pantry - hooray! I made a simple amaranth cookie that I didn’t even have to leave my house for. Nutty, earthy, crunchy and slightly sweet. Perfect with a cup of tea!

SPANISH-INSPIRED PAN ROASTED CHICKEN

It all started with an Instagram story. Okay, no. It started with boredom during the COVID-19 quarantine. Basically, I saw a dish my friend made and I decided at that moment I had to make it. That dish was Spanish-inspired pan roasted chicken thighs.

MANGO PUDDING

A childhood classic for me: mango pudding. It’s been years since I’ve made a mango pudding and this time I made it with a little bit of a twist: coconut milk. Besides, coconuts and mangoes are practically a match made in heaven.
