Baked paneer cheese with prawns on avocado and pea mash
It was my day off and I had no idea what to cook. I tried to flick through some cookbooks, some magazines and some blogs for inspiration. Nothing came up and all I knew was that I wanted to eat prawns. I went to the fishmonger and got the prawns and then I raided the … Continue reading
The Liebster award and cake
I have said it before but it is so true, blogging has enabled me to meet so many other lovely bloggers.
