Atchar and Pineapple, Chicken Burger


The Peppadew company of South Africa have upped their game of late, introducing a whole range of new and exciting Peppadew products, including an array of fabulous Atchars. An 'Atchar' is a South African pickle, most often served with curry. 

They contacted me and asked if I wanted to be part of their #AwesomeAtchar campaign, to think out of the box and come up with an interesting South African recipe incorporating one of their atchar products. I had a little think and decided on a seriously decadent, chicken and atchar burger paired with sweet grilled pineapple and cooling mint raita to counter the spicy kick. It’s a great combination and perfect for any braai. You can vote for your favourite recipe from the campaign here.

Easy Chicken and Mushroom Bake


This is the last recipe in my series of #Blendability recipes in conjunction with #MushroomSA and I have to say it's also my favourite. It's such an easy dish to create, and whilst it's comforting and moreish, it's also light and very low in carbs.

#Blendability means blending chopped mushrooms together with meat to up the nutrition and taste and decrease the calories. It's a cool concept that works to lessen cost, calorie intake and your carbon footprint whilst upping the vitamin and mineral content of your food.

And, aside from all of the technical jargon, it simply tastes delicious!
