I am a big fan of homemade tomato soup. Its full of tangy, sweet, salty goodness. Not to mention the loads of vitamins and anti oxidants. Using cherry tomatoes have 2 main advantages – It tastes more crisp (you’ll know what I mean when you try it!) and its alot more convenient. No slicing and dicing. Its a pretty fast recipe to whip up when you need that soup fix!

Creamy Roasted Cauliflower Soup
I’ve been wanting to try this recipe again for sometime. I tried it years ago after seeing it on TV but added my own mix of spices and it turned out pretty darn good, which is a miracle of sorts since I don’t like cauliflower! As an additional bonus, the soup is amazingly creamy without actually needing to add cream or milk. Easy and quick recipe that is healthy and fuss free.
Nespresso French Sticks

3-2-1 Noodle Soup
3 types of Japanese soya based sauces, 2 cuts of pork (shoulder and mined) and 1 type of noodles. This is my recipe for Japanese noodles, transforming the cheap, oft over looked cuts of pork into delightful mouthfuls with lots of love and patience. The combination of the 3 sauces gives the soup a rich, complex taste that’s simply satisfying.
Croquettes of the World: Australia
Sweet potato, squash,ginger, cinnamon, nutmeg and maple syrup? Somehow, this mish mash and melting pot of flavors remind me of Australia, one of my favorite countries in the world.
Croquettes of the World: Ireland
My wife loves Shepard’s pie and this seemed perfect to transform into a croquette. To make it unmistakably Irish, I’ve used draught Gunniess brewed in Ireland as part of the beef stew. You can also use the leftover ingredients to whip up a Shepard’s pie.
