How to avoid cross contamination in your kitchen
We have all been there. That voice inside our head that screams ”it’s contaminated!” when your not so helpful friend accidentally puts your bread in the toaster without the toastie bags! Or your boyfriend uses the same knife to dunk into your favourite jam, and then spreads it on his (gasp) non gluten free bread. So many gluten lurking opportunities, it’s an absolute nightmare trying to keep on top of the cross contamination!
Healthy Greek Pitta’s
Greek Pitta breads are not only easy peasy to make, but they can be a great on the go snack, or for lunch or dinner! They are filling too, and you can have lots of fun creating new and exciting fillings! I used the Genius pitta bread with chicken, peppers, greek yoghurt, fried halloumi and salad!
Greek Walnut Cake Karithopita
Greek walnut cake or Καρυδόπιτa is a Greek dessert made mainly from walnuts and covered in a sweet syrup. Its name comes from the Greek name “karýdia” (walnuts) and “pita” (pie). There are several variations of the dish, with unique ingredients used in both the syrup and cake.
Chocolate christmas cake featuring Betty Crocker
Chocolate Christmas cake featuring Betty Crocker cake mix to make a christmas chocolate cake! This chocolate cake is so easy, you can make it in a jiffy! This is perfect when you don’t have time to get all the bits and bobs for a cake, but it will still be delicious! I have used Betty Crockers gluten free cake mix a number of times, so can happily say that this mix is a good one!
Christmas lunch at The Folly
For the third time this year, I visited The Folly restaurant in London for brunch. This time, I was meeting my friend Philippa for a much needed Christmas catch up. I had planned this way back in October, and was intrigued to find out what the Christmas menu had to offer. I picked the Folly mainly because of its location as it is near Monument station and in the dark of the night I can easily get back to Fenchurch street in a jiffy!
Giant marshmallow pistachio chocolate cookies
There’s nothing more christmasy then making giant marshmallow pistachio chocolate cookies! The smell of cookies wafting around the kitchen is so comforting! When I first made some cookies back in 2012, I was disappointed that the cookies were not ‘glued together’ like a non gluten free cookie.
Christmas Pudding Chocolate Cake
Did someone say Christmas cake? Yes Christmas Pudding Chocolate Cake that is super yummy, moist, chocolatey, gooey and free from gluten! This is a super easy recipe that I saw in LIDL and transformed it into my own gluten free creation! This is a great recipe that you can use year round. Instead of Christmas puddings, you could create something for birthdays or other occasions!
Greek yoghurt and lychee cake
Greek yoghurt and lychee cake to add some exotic-ness into your life! Yoghurt cake or Yiaourtopita is a traditional cake made with yoghurt instead of milk. There are variations of the recipe, but I kept it simple. I decided to add some tinned lychees to this recipe, but you could use other tinned fruit like mandarins or peaches.
Brunch at The Folly London
Oh I do love finding new and exciting restaurants in London, and the Folly is my latest find. Set in the heart of the city, situated on Gracechurch street, near to monument station and within walking distance from London Fenchurch street, this is a vibrant and trendy place to be! With plenty of vegan and gluten free options on the menu, I met up for a Sunday brunch with my gorgeous fellow blogging friend Rosanna from roses rooftop, to sample the delightful menu!
