It’s National Curry Week so I thought I’d share this photo of a container full of colourful curry spices.

One of the best smells in the world is a blend of cumin, coriander and turmeric being fried off in ghee (you can keep your chilli powder – it makes me cough uncontrollably!). A couple of cardamom pods popped into the saucepan while boiling basmati rice gives it a lovely flavour.

If I could only eat one kind of food for the rest of my life, curry would definitely be my favoured option!

Tuesday Huesday: National Cupcake Week

It’s National Cupcake Week this week so I may just have to oblige and make a batch.

Justin’s very particular about his ‘buns’ (as he refers to them). He likes his cupcakes without the tooth-aching icing on top. To me, that makes it just a muffin! What do you think? What’s the difference between a cupcake, bun and a muffin? Are you a fan of the current cupcake fad sweeping the world?
