Since I started a granola company in 2018, I’ve experimented with a lot of different recipes, ingredients and methods to make granola. It can be very simple and rewarding. So I decided to share the easiest, most versatile and delicious recipe here. Easy and versatile granola ingredients for home-baking Granola is basically baked and slightly sweetened oats. I like to add an abundance and variety of nuts, seeds and dried fruits to my granolas. This makes the granola more filling and flavourful. My favourite nuts to include are: pecan nuts, cashews, walnuts and almonds. I also like to add sunflo ..read more

Recipe: Cantonese Pan-Fried Salmon with Soy Sauce

This pan-fried salmon recipe was inspired by the classic Cantonese steamed fish. Although this is not exactly an ‘authentic’ dish, this fusion approach is more straight forward than the traditional recipe. It also retains the best part: the soy sauce, ginger, spring onions and coriander mix of flavours. The entire process probably takes about 15 minutes. That is conveniently about the same time the rice takes to cook. What is the Classic Cantonese Steamed-Fish? Steamed fish is very common in Asian cuisine. Back home, we’re lucky we get to have it almost daily. However, to steam cook a fish, th ..read more

Yardbird is probably the one restaurant my friends and I visit the most together in Hong Kong. We love it for so many reasons, including their furikake rice cakes, which I’m pretty sure we have never not-ordered. This was the inspiration for this recipe. Inspired by Yardbird – A favourite restaurant in Hong Kong This restaurant in Sheung Wan sports an effortlessly cool, relaxed vibe, and serves delicious yakitori skewers. They also have a surprisingly extensive vegetarian-friendly menu. For example, my other favourite dishes are their KFC – Korean Fried Cauliflower and mushroom rice. So if you ..read more

As we spend all our time at home over the next couple of weeks, staying safe from coronavirus, it’s the best opportunity to experiment a little with cooking – like this variation of asparagus and spinach risotto. I love seeing my friends’ home-cooked meals because they’re so diverse. It’s the best source of inspiration. At the same time, we’re avoiding supermarket trips as much as possible. So whenever our fridge starts to get bare, we get a bit more creative thinking about what we could make with what we have left.

Making handmade pasta at home from scratch may seem like a daunting task. It does require time and effort to prepare, but the ingredients can be very simple. If it’s your first time making pasta from scratch, this pici recipe is a perfect one to start with. You don’t need any fancy equipment – i.e. no pasta roller machine! In fact, I didn’t even use a rolling pin. Jump to Recipe What is Pici? Pici is a hand-rolled pasta, which is much thicker than spaghetti. It’s actually only made from flour, water, olive oil and salt. That means it would be vegan-friendly too. The secret to al dente I like ..read more

Lurra (London): Best Basque Spanish Restaurant in Marylebone

Lurra has become one of my go-to restaurants in London to take guests. Whenever people visit, I want to show off the best restaurants in the city, the ones which do the London food scene justice. There’s another important element to the struggle – a lot of restaurants don’t take reservations. For example, Barrafina is another great Spanish restaurant, but they only do walk-ins, and their bar counter seating is only really ideal for a party of two. Lurra is one of the best spots for this, and for nice occasions. They serve consistently impressive Basque country style Spanish food, with a f ..read more

Recipe: Healthier Low Sugar Banana Bread

Banana bread is the answer to my Sunday afternoons at home. Baking is one of my favourite therapeutic activities, especially when I want to distract myself from all things work-related. But a lot of baking recipes are loaded with butter and sugar, which is delicious (and fun) to make sometimes, but other times, I end up eating too much of what I make and feel a bit gross afterwards. So I’ve been working on making healthy versions of baked goods. They don’t always work because sometimes you just need the butter or sugar for the form, or for the classic taste you expect. But this healthy version ..read more

Recounting the best restaurants I ate at has been one way I reflect on the past years. In 2018, I travelled to a number of different countries and came up with a list of great restaurants from almost all corners of the world (see 10 Favourite Restaurants from Around the World in 2018). In 2019, my travels became less food-driven and more activity-driven. As such, I wrote about my travel adventures, such as our 5-Day Trekking the W-Circuit in Torres del Paine, Patagonia. I also curated content for travellers, such as the guest post: 5 Historic Sites in London Overlooked by Tourists. Best restau ..read more

Trekking the W-Circuit in Torres del Paine (Patagonia) has “always been on my bucket list”. That was most people’s reaction when I told them about our recent hiking adventure in Patagonia. To be honest, it wasn’t initially on mine. When Dario suggested travelling to South America, I actually hesitated. I had recently visited Peru, Bolivia and Chile, where l covered the iconic spots of Machu Picchu, Salt Flats and Atacama desert.
