How to make street tacos?

In June 2019 we opened our first cookery school, The Outreach Kitchen for vulnerable people. A place to give individuals a sense of belonging, a place to learn new skills and gain qualifications. Supported by practical learning and hands on experience which would and has supported an application for employment on numerous occasions.

Minimalism and organization expert, Marie Kondo usually tells her clients to choose to keep items that "spark joy," upon further investigation she says what she actually means is to keep things that conjure deep emotion. When I share recipes and the stories that surround them, that is what I aim to do—share recipes that conjure emotions.

The flavours of Indonesia and Malaysia are something that I can’t get enough of. The spicy and tropical aromas are perfectly combined for enjoying on the balcony on a summer’s evening. It is a style I continuously return to and have developed some recipes for those times that I can’t afford a plane ticket.

If you’re anything like me, hot sauce is a staple in the pantry. My love for that spicy kick has had me chasing all the various flavours, styles and tastes out there, and I just can’t get enough.

So, my search began, new ways to fuel the burning addiction while lightening the load on the ol’ wallet.

I was first introduced to the world of Upside Down cakes when I was 7 years old. To me, the idea of any sort of upside down dessert was amusing, and reminded my childhood self of all things related to Lewis Carroll's Alice In Wonderland.

There's something about a homemade drop biscuit, fresh from the oven that just makes my day complete. Biscuits are delicious and extremely easy to make. The ingredients are staples that I always seem to have lying around in my pantry, which makes this recipe all the more perfect. Whenever I'm not sure what to make for supper, you can bet that these delicious biscuits come to mind. Maybe paired with some delicious soup. You can't go wrong with having these biscuits as part of your meal.

The holidays don’t have to be difficult when you are on a restricted diet. In fact, there are many foods that are naturally gluten free, dairy free, soy free, and nightshade free that you and your family are already familiar with or you just need to make one small, unnoticeable ingredient change.

Would you believe that I have never cooked until really recently? Recently meaning like literally last month. And I mean I have never boiled water on the stove or even cooked rice in the rice cooker. Apart from not doing it, I actually didn’t know how! I’m honestly not proud but that’s how it had been.
