In the loving and ever living memory of my father, I present to you his favourite dish- Grilled buffalo Chicken with stewed Brocolli and lemon Butter sweetcorn served with a side of mash & gravy.

I never got around to making this dish, in over 3 years, ever since he passed away. But today, I thought I would celebrate him & his fuss-free, easy going pallette for all things delicious!

Papa, as you used to say, "best Meal Mehru!", that's exactly what everyone else said too.

I love you, your mehru rani.

Waffles🧇 & eggs 🍳
Is one of the most underrated breakfast combos!

The subtle sweetness of the waffles and the runny eggs on top make this the most comforting combo ever!

My preferred South asian pallette is always up for a side of roasted peppers, spring onions and splash of microgreens 🍀 However you can also add your favourite coldcuts 🥓 🥩 or 🥑 and lettuce with a dash of hollandaise sauce to make this the perfect brunch sandwich!

Waffles from are the best thing to have popped in and out of our toasters!!!!!

My weekend (preferably) is always a "night in" with my girls.

Its my time to unwind, chill, have comfort food with even more comforting conversations.

We did all this over a mezze box by this weekend & It was worth every nibble!

The labneh was thick and creamy, with the right amount of tanginess

The hummus was also authentic and delicious.

However, the 🌟 of this box are the nutty, crunchy falafels and the buttery, soft bread sticks!!

Both healthy dips go well with toast as spreads too♡

Perfect for 3 to 4 people to sit down & enjoy over as a snack!
