Tikka Masala is an Indian-inspired dish featuring yogurt-marinated chicken in a creamy and spicy sauce. Indian cuisine is often strong and rich in deep flavors, but here the yogurt helps to mellow the strong taste, making it more suitable for us Northerners. Tikka Masala contains a wide range of different ingredients, but don’t be intimidated … Read more
The most juicy and delicious beef pie I have ever tried. I can in no way see myself as the mastermind behind this recipe; I got it from an old “How to cook like Heston” program and have shared the video below. The English love steak and kidney pies, and I have used most of … Read more
My take on a classic version of English Muffins, which, despite the name, is an English type of bread. The rolls are especially popular for dishes such as Eggs Benedict or Eggs Florentine, which I personally enjoy making quite often.
My first attempt at Yorkshire Puddings – the delightful English puff pastries. To not “just” always serve the same kind of bread with my family’s meals, I love trying new types of bread. This is definitely not the last time I make them. We had them as a side dish to this delightful cheese soup.

When my husband was in London a few years ago and excitedly told me about it, I have wanted to try making them myself ever since. And today is the day! Traditionally, they are only eaten with … Read more
My take on delicious hash brown inspired waffles that can be used for either breakfast or a good brunch. One of the coziest things about being in England or staying at a hotel abroad is European/Continental/English breakfast in my world. The combination of hash browns, eggs, bacon, and either baked beans/avocado is a sure hit … Read more
Scones are an integral part of the classic English afternoon tea. Our scone recipe is packed with butter and is served with lightly whipped cream and homemade lemon curd. The great thing about making scones is that they do not need to rise, so they are quick to make – whether for breakfast, brunch, or … Read more
The classic English afternoon tea has a certain charm. The traditional scones don’t stand a chance in front of me before they’re gone. That’s why I’ve been experimenting with how much butter I can add to these beauties before it becomes too much. So far, I’m quite pleased with this mixture for my scones.
