The title says it all, don’t you think? All I can add is this: top each portion with a fried (or poached) egg. It really amps the flavour and protein, especially if you’re full-time keto! This recipe can be gluten-free, grain-free, and egg-free if you must. Serves 3 Preparation time:…
I warn you - this granola is dangerous. Crunchy bites of coconut and mixed nuts, toasted and melded together with a buttery caramel. Oh yeah. This recipe can be gluten-free, grain-free, and egg-free. Makes just over 1 cup Preparation time: 2 minutes (plus chilling) Cooking time: 10 minutes Ingredients: -…
This recipe is dedicated to my sister, Tessa, to whom I’m grateful for the photos. When she walked in on me making this, the low-carber mournfully asked what it was. I was only too happy to tell her that, in fact, the dessert was tailored to her exact diet. Yes,…
Two ingredients. Well, three if you count the basil leaf. This ‘gelato’ - though I’m not sure it’s proper to call it that, as this is really just a cheat’s version - is creamy and utterly gorgeous. With the vivid berries and gentle coconut background, you’d hardly believe how quickly it…
If you’re looking for a low-carb meal that will leave you stunned rather than satisfied, this dish is for you. I’m talking tender chicken and a melting mix of herby cheese, all tied together - quite literally - with the ambrosia of our world. Bacon. (On a side note, I do…
Perhaps the thing I miss most about Southeast Asian food is the mango shake. On a hot day (which is every day there, really!), there’s nothing better than slurping up this icy, fruity bliss. Creamy and thick, the dairy-free version here is sure to have you feeling totally troppo. There…
You may not go for instant coffee. That’s just fine by me - but the beauty of it here is in no waiting for brewing or chilling. Just pour, shake, and drink! If you do want the real deal, replace the 1/3 cup boiling water and coffee powder with a…
After school ended, I was lucky enough to travel to one of my favourite countries: Singapore. With the hot and humid climate, I was in my element. (Left: fried sesame ball with peanut filling!) The main reason of the trip was to take a Singaporean cooking course, but I also…
I bought my first tub of protein powder the other day. Too much protein can be a bad thing on a ketogenic diet, but I decided that investing in a bit of good-quality powder would be great for bulking up some low-carb recipes. Treats just don’t have the right texture…
I want to grab the person who first created flaxmeal bread and kiss them on both cheeks. This stuff is nutty, it’s moist, it’s soft and springy - all without the crumbly weirdness that so often accompanies low-carb baked goods! The flaxseeds are super-packed with fibre and omega-3 fatty acids,…
