Now this cake is a beauty. Because not only does it smell incredible and perhaps will have any stray children or pets coming out of their respective hiding places for a slice, but it also tastes divine. This is one of the harder cakes I've made. The recipe originally came to me from the gorgeous Chanel from CatsLoveCooking . She instagrammed a picture of a Czech honey cake that she was eating and I was instantly smitten by the toasted nut coating and the multiple layers sandwiched with cream. Her colleague had brought it into work and had bought it from a bakery in Manly.

A new Ottolenghi book is always reason for a little celebration and this definitely goes for his just published cookbook Sweet. A book about celebrating the sweet things in life – from perfectly light sponge cakes to crumbly sugar-dusted cookies that come straight out of the oven – because they raise the spirits and create pure joy. In Sweet, Yotam shows once again how he truly inspires and isn’t interested in food hypes. While pretty much half the world has a sugar phobia, Ottolenghi doesn’t hold the sugar back. According to Yotam, it’s all about ‘what you see is what you get’: people will make responsible choices about what and how much to eat as long as they are not consuming things without realizing it (i.e. hidden sugars). And that there is certainly nothing wrong with treats, as long as we know what they are and enjoy them as such. I personally couldn’t agree more. For Sweet, Yotam joined forces with pastry chef Helen Goh, who is just as precise and as much an perfectionist as Ottolenghi himself. According to the both of them, there is no upper limit when it comes to the number of times you can […]

Vegan Gluten-free French Fancies First of all I would like to wish my mum and all the amazing mothers out there a ?HAPPY MOTHER’S DAY? If you live in the UK you will be very familiar with french fancies. They’re these cute mini sponge cakes, similar to petit four, with a jam centre and covered in different coloured icing – pink (strawberry), yellow (lemon) and brown (chocolate). I used to find the sponge in french fancies a little dry, which wasn’t too bad since the jam and icing added a bit of moisture and complemented the whole thing, but I still prefer my cakes a little more moist, so I wanted to make mine a little denser and not as spongy. […]

G and I were watching Mauritian Food Safari (click for video) on TV one day when, all of a sudden, he pointed out "Hey, that looks like the Indian snack that they sell in Malaysia!". True enough, after taking a closer look, I was amused to see the familiar deep-fried lentil snack (which we call "Magelek", although that does not translate to "chilli cakes") on Australian television. And no wonder, these chilli cakes were apparently introduced by the Mauritian Indians. The only noticeable difference was that the Mauritian version was round like golf balls, whereas Magelek is shaped like a flying saucer (or something like that). These are one of my favourite snacks that I can eat for breakfast, tea or any time of the day. In Malaysia, you can get them at the Pasar Malam (night markets) or even buy frozen ones that you can deep-fry yourself. They are made from yellow split peas or dhall, and are mixed through with curry leaves, cumin and chillies. If you don't have curry leaves, you can just use coriander leaves, which is the Mauritian version. Magalek / Gateaux Piments (Chilli Cakes) Ingredients 250g yellow split peas 1 sprig curry leaves 2 tbsp coriander leaves, chopped 1/2 onion, chopped (optional) 2-3 red chillies, chopped 1 tsp cumin seeds (or substitute with ground cumin) 1 tsp salt (or to taste) Dash of pepper Vegetable oil for frying Method Soak the split peas overnight. Transfer to a colander and leave to drain well for an hour, shaking the water off occasionally. Place in a blender or food processor, and process until most of it is finely chopped. Pour out into a large bowl and add the rest of the ingredients. Mix well. Heat up sufficient vegetable oil in a wok/pan for deep-frying. Using a large spoon, scoop the mixture into the palm of your hand to form mounds the size of golf balls. Compress them between both palms of your hand, then gently drop the patties/balls into the hot oil. Repeat with the rest of the mixture. Deep-fry them until golden brown and crisp. Drain on absorbent kitchen paper. Serve hot or warm as a snack or for parties and picnics.
