  • Sichuan Doubanjiang Soybeans with Peppers

    This dish comes together fast and packs serious flavour into a bowl of humble beans. Doubanjiang, the fermented chili bean paste that sits at the heart of Sichuan cooking, brings salt, heat, and a deep savoury punch that no other ingredient quite replicates. Cooked soybeans soak that up beautifully, and the peppers add crunch and a little sweetness to balance things out. A finishing drizzle of chili oil and a scatter of Sichuan peppercorns give you that signature lip-tingling buzz. Good over steamed rice, or just eaten straight from the wok.

  • Classic Glazed Gluten-Free Yeast Donuts

    Pillowy, gluten-free yeast donuts with a glossy sugar glaze. Getting a light, airy donut without wheat flour takes a bit of patience, but the result is genuinely worth the wait. The dough is softer and stickier than regular donut dough, so don't be tempted to add more flour. Trust the process, chill the dough, and you'll have donuts that hold together beautifully once fried.

  • Mayak Eggs — Korean Soy-Marinated Soft-Boiled Eggs

    Mayak eggs (마약 계란) are dangerously addictive Korean marinated eggs — 'mayak' literally means 'drug' in Korean, and once you taste one you'll understand why. Jammy, silky soft-boiled eggs soaked in a punchy, savory-sweet soy marinade with garlic, chilli, and green onion. They're incredible over steamed rice, tucked into ramen, or honestly just eaten straight from the jar at midnight. No judgement here.

  • Asian-Fusion Lentil Salad with Coconut Aminos Dressing

    A vibrant, hearty lentil salad with bold Asian-inspired flavours — tender green lentils tossed with crunchy cucumber, pickled carrots, fresh herbs, and a punchy coconut aminos, rice vinegar, and ginger dressing. Bright, satisfying, and endlessly interesting.

  • Shakshuka with Spiced Tomato Sauce and Poached Eggs

    A bold, smoky North African and Middle Eastern classic — vivid red tomato sauce spiked with cumin, paprika, and coriander, with perfectly poached eggs nestled right in the pan. This version skips the chili and harissa for a beautifully warming, spiced sauce that lets the tomatoes and peppers really shine. Grab some crusty bread and get ready to mop up every last drop.
