I’m a 28 year old girl (I can still say girl, right?) raised in Surrey and based in London. Nothing too exciting there. I’m a bad cook. In fact, I’m a pretty terrible cook, but I put that down to inexperience. I’ve never even cooked a roast. (That, in part, might explain why I’m still unmarried. Well, that and many other things.)

Whilst my time in the kitchen has been of fairly short duration, I’m fairly inventive (it’s very rare that I’ll follow a recipe- I’m not enough of a forward planner to buy specific ingredients) and tend not to slave over much. I’m also a fussy eater. Very fussy.  My idea of hell is having to eat sushi with ginger, with parsley and coriander not far away, or, to a somewhat lesser degree, having tzaziki without dill. I love dill. I shall never understand why some people are obsessed with adding sultanas to coronation chicken or a chicken korma. (Genuinely, why would anybody do that?)

Whilst I admit to being difficult to please on the culinary front, I hope that some of my recipes appeal to similarly likeminded people in addition to people who like everything.

In addition to my recipes, I’m also going to write some reviews of different restaurants. They’re going to be places I visit in a personal capacity, often with friends or my long suffering boyfriend. You’ll be glad to know that he eats most things, even my mum’s cooking, so I’ll be including his opinions too (essentially, anything about fish and he’ll be the one who ate it).

I have no idea if anyone is going to read this, but I hope you like it if you do. Please feel free to contact me with any comments, good or bad.
