Turkish Delight Panna Cotta

Growing up in Australia Turkish delights were common place in our household. I remember us always having a box of them in the pantry. For some reason I’ve always had a love/hate relationship when it comes to Turkish delight, I remember going to birthday parties as a kid in Australia and often being offered a specific brand of Turkish delight covered in milk chocolate, wrapped in pink foil… if you’re an Aussie reading this you will most likely know the chocolate Turkish delight bar I’m referring to! I don’t know why but I never really enjoyed eating that chocolate covered delight, luckily though my mum would often buy traditionally made ones from Persian/Turkish supermarkets and those were the ones I enjoyed best.

Yaaaayyy for Fridays! I hope your week has gone well! I’ve been busy planning and creating new content for the blog. If you follow me on Facebook, you might have seen me mention something about a newsletter, or maybe you didn’t because I never know who of you, if any Facebook shows my posts to! Anyway, the newsletter is one of the things I’m in the process of creating, this will be sent out on a weekly basis (haven’t decided what day yet) and will cover my posts for the week plus some extra bits and pieces. I can’t wait to have it all ready to share with you! [Read more…]

Review & Giveaway: The Paleo Slow Cooker

The Paleo Slow Cooker Book

Pumpkins, apples, leaves changing colour and making crunching noises as you step on them… warmth and the smell of pumpkin pie spice are all things I associate with this time of year, Autumn/Fall.

There’s something else that’s synonymous with this time of year and that’s the slow cooker. There’s nothing like adding ingredients to a slow cooker, letting it do all the work then coming back a few hours later and opening it up to find a magical smell inside and some delicious food! Slow cooker meals are some of the tastiest! They’re also great because you can use cheap cuts of meat and the low slow cooking process will result in soft, tender meat in the end. Plus, there’s always the time aspect of it… with slow cooker meals you just set and forget AND you can make recipes in bulk so you have leftovers to freeze or enjoy for a few days after.

I use my slow cooker on a fairly regular basis. If I’m not using it to make recipes then I’m usually using it to make bone broth. If you haven’t got one then I HIGHLY recommend you go out and get yourself one, they are not very expensive and are a BIG help in the kitchen!

Speaking of slow cookers, I recently received a copy of ‘The Paleo Slow Cooker’ by Arsy Vartanian of Rubies and Radishes. Arsy was kind enough to send me a copy of her lovely book… actually it was there waiting for me at our new place on the day we moved in! What an amazing welcome home present that was :).
