Guests of ours recently spoilt us, with making this most wonderful spice.  They very kindly shared the recipe, which is based on the traditional Egyptian Dukkah Recipe (but better!).  This is the most Fabulous spice is so deliciously yummy, I found myself sprinkling it in on almost everything, even just gobbling straight off my hand.

This is one of those fabulously quick bread that stays fresh and moist for days afterwards - definitely my favourite bread recipe for the moment.

Cauliflower and Broccoli Cheese

I usually do this dish as an accompaniment to a braai (barbecue).  There are more and more vegetarians out there these days, and the old fashioned South African idea of a braai consisting of only pap and vleis (meat) just isn't really an option any more.  It is always extremely popular and very YUM!

Granadilla condensed milk mousse

Perhaps you are more familiar with the name 'Passion Fruit'.  But I'm not... so Granadilla it is.... And my granadilla vine is overflowing with fruit at the moment.  All of which just has to get eaten.  This recipe is so easy and quick it can easily be done whilst cooking a main meal.  You know how good we all are at multi-tasking! Ha-ha!

Anchovy, caper and Olive Bread

The smell of fresh bread baking in an oven is one of those simple irresistible smells.  This is a simple bread recipe which can then have almost anything added to it.  I find that by adding the bicarb of soda the bread seems to be softer and lasts longer.

Creamy Salmon fish pie

I love making pies, such an easy way to make a really fab meal, that the whole family enjoys.  The recipe below is wonderful and an adaption of a few recipes all put into one.  Fish is full of those fabulous brain boosting omegas, and most kids live a pie.
