Brown Cinnamon Chapatis
I try to cook chapatis often mainly because hubby loves them. When it comes to chapatis, I’m never a fan of brown ones, I always find the taste a bit off. That changed when my friend Yvie invited us for lunch and she’d made them. Needless to say, hubby and I ate those chapatis like […]

Butter Beans Curry
Butter beans are white or cream coloured flat beans. They are rich in vitamin C, vitamin A and thiamin. They are a good source of protein plus they are very low in calories and fat. I have come to love these beans not only because of their nutritional benefits but also for their rich taste. […]
Coconut Rice
Rice is one of those go to dishes whenever one is in a hurry to prepare a meal. I think it is a staple in most households. The thing I like most about rice is that it’s very versatile and you can cook it in almost any way imaginable. To avoid cooking it in the […]
