Making time for home school, cooking meals and running a business during lockdown is extremely tough. Especially as a single parent. These last 11 months have been incredibly difficult and I've found myself taking solace in comfort food and in the joy and cooking. It's been so nice to be able to whip something up that is filling, easy to make and takes really yummy. 

During lockdown, Hello Fresh reached out to me to try one of the recipes on their site. I browsed through dozens of easy-to-cook options before I decided to go with their Yoghurt Spiced Chicken. It sounded like a good base recipe and would be easy to adapt if I wanted to.

I've made this recipe twice since getting into contact with Hello Fresh. The first time, I made it just as the recipe stated and it was delicious and intriguing but I kept thinking about all the variations I could make. So the second time, I deviated from the recipe a bit. I swapped the chicken for salmon and it was incredible. I swapped the kale for spinach, too. Instead of thinning the curry paste with Greek yoghurt, I decided to use cashew milk and OMG, it was incredible! I have to admit, this was my favourite substitution. If I make this recipe again, I'll keep the cashew milk in place of the Greek yoghurt but I'll swap the salmon and chicken with roasted cauliflower instead and make the entire dish vegan and gluten-free. 

This dish is so easy to make - you'll see that the instructions are easy to follow and the method is familiar if you know your way around the kitchen. The only thing you might have difficulty with is finding rogan josh curry paste but just shop around. It's readily available on the high street. 

Ingredients:

For the spiced yoghurt chicken
1 butternut squash

1 pot ground coriander

1 bunch fresh coriander

1 sachet rogan josh curry paste

1 bag kale

1 head broccoli

2 cloves of garlic

75 grams Greek yoghurt

280 grams diced chicken thighs

Instructions:

1. Preheat your oven to 200°C. Trim the butternut squash then halve lengthways and scoop out the seeds. Chop it widthways into 2cm slices, then chop into 2cm chunks (no need to peel!). Pop the squash on a large baking tray and drizzle with oil. Season with salt and pepper and sprinkle over the ground coriander. Toss to coat and spread out in a single layer. Roast on the top shelf of your oven until golden and tender, 30-35 mins.
2. Roughly chop the coriander (stalks and all!). Separate the broccoli into florets. Line a large baking tray with foil. Reserve 1 teaspoon of curry paste, and pop the rest in a bowl and add a third of the yoghurt. Season with salt and pepper and stir together. Add the chicken, stir to coat, then pop onto 1 side of a baking tray in a single layer. Pop the broccoli on the other side of the baking tray. Drizzle with oil and season with salt and pepper.
   
   
   
   
   
3. Peel the garlic clove(s) and pop into a square of foil with a drizzle of oil and scrunch to enclose it. Pop on the tray with the chicken and broccoli. When the squash has been in the oven for 20 mins, remove from your oven and turn. Pop it back on the top shelf to finish cooking. At the same time, roast the chicken and broccoli on the middle shelf of your oven until the chicken is cooked through and the broccoli is tender, 12-15 mins. IMPORTANT: The chicken is cooked when no longer pink in the middle.
4. Pop the remaining yoghurt in a bowl with the reserved curry paste, season with salt and pepper and mix together. Get your washing up done!
   
   
   
   
5. When the butternut is cooked, pop the kale on top and drizzle with oil. Season with salt and pepper and pop back into your oven until the kale is tender and slightly crispy, 3-4 mins. When the garlic is cooked, carefully remove it from your baking tray and remove from the tin foil. Mash on your board with a fork and stir it into the yoghurt.
6. Once everything is cooked, add the broccoli and chicken to the tray with the squash and kale and mix to combine. Add in a splash of the water to the curried garlic yogurt to thin out, and mix. Serve in bowls and drizzle over the spiced yoghurt. Sprinkle over the coriander and enjoy!

I love a good chowder so much that this is my second seafood chowder recipe, and like that one, this one is so easy to make. It's absolutely perfect for those snowy winter evenings.

Oh man, is there anything better than a chocolate chip cookie? You know the kind, the slightly chewy, not-too-sweet, soft and gooey cookies. It took me a long time, a lot of trial and error to perfect this chocolate chip cookie recipe. You'll notice that it's missing some staples of normal cookies - there's no baking soda and there's no milk.

Gluten-Free Cinnamon Sugar Palmiers

These flaky French puff pastry cookies have been given a gluten-free makeover and are jam-packed with sweet sugar and cinnamon!

Yield: 2 dozen
Prep time: 10 minutes
Cook time: 6 minutes
Diet: Gluten-Free

Palmiers sort of have an identity crisis--they are known by so many different names: pig's ear, elephant ear, palm leaves, coeur de France, French hearts, shoe-soles and even glasses. It doesn't matter what you call them, you'll be too busy devouring them to say much of anything apart from "Yum!" and "OMG!".

Beyond not knowing what name they want to be called, they also don't know what they want to even be. Are they a cookie? Are they a pastry? What are they?! I think these gluten-free cinnamon sugar palmiers are delicious; especially when dunked into a cup of milky tea or a frothy latte. These are total "Yassssssss" cookies. 

There are two names any foodie Francophile knows: Julia Childs and Larousse. According to the Larousse Gastronomique (an entire food encyclopedia, y'all) a palmier is:

A small pastry made of a sugared and double-rolled sheet of puff pastry cut into slices, the distinctive shape of which resembles the foliage of a palm tree, first made at the beginning of the 20th century.

Celebrate Veganuary with this quick and filling gluten-free stir fried peas and peppers lunch option!

Gluten-Free Vegan Stir Fried Peas & Peppers

January is a month-long celebration of the vegan diet. Veganuary seeks to raise awareness of the vegan diet and what it means to not eat any animals or animal products. I don't often eat vegan food, but it's nice to shake things up every now and then. I love these sweet peas and peppers and the smoked paprika adds an extra depth and gives this dish a Spanish feel.

This stir-fried pea dish makes a great vegan lunch option or you could increase the portions and serve it as a side dish or even a main course. If vegan food isn't your forte, try topping it with a runny fried egg or folding through some sliced chorizo or bacon, too with feta crumbled over top.

3 Simple Gluten-Free Veganuary Dishes to Try

Try something different this January by incorporating more vegan meals into your meal plan!

This time of year, many of us tally up all the ways we'd like to improve ourselves over the course of the next 12 months. We set aside lofty aspirations of self-improvement touching on everything from eating better to getting fit. Whether you are of the inclination to make resolutions or not, science consistently tells us that reducing the amount of animal products and meat we consume (especially red meats) is one of the best things we can do for our bodies. 

In light of this, and in an effort to spread more about the benefits of veganism, January has been dubbed Veganuary--a time for encouraging others to break with the traditions of meat at every meal and to embrace, even if for a limited time, a plant-based diet.  Here are 3 simple and delicious dishes you can try to introduce yourself to the vegan diet. As always, all three of these recipes are gluten-free, too!

Best Ever Gluten-Free Deep Dish White Pizza - #GBBOGlutenFree

Make the best from scratch gluten free deep dish pizza, so easy to whip up and ready in minutes!

Gluten-Free Deep Dish Chicken Pizza

On last week's episode of the Great British Bake Off, the contestants tackled hand-tossed pizza. Admittedly, with gluten free pizza, it'd be pretty difficult to hand toss it since there's no gluten in it to give it the stretchyness it needs. So instead, this is a tried and true recipe for deep dish gluten free pizza. You'll absolutely love it! The recipe is for a chicken-based white pizza but you should use the toppings you like best--anything and I mean anything will taste delicious on this base and you won't even believe it's gluten free.

5 Bonfire Night Gluten-Free Dinners

These five gluten-free meals are perfect for serving on Bonfire Night while you watch the fireworks!

Bonfire Night, the 5th of November, Guy Fawke's Night -- no matter what you call it, it's the perfect time for getting together with friends and family under a blanket of stars on a chilly autumn night and watching the fireworks overhead. Add in a warming bowl of something hearty and delicious and you're all set for celebrating in style! 

 

Bonfire Night is one of my favourite nights of the year--we love to drive around, seeing all the glowing bonfires and watching the fireworks over the city from the comfort and warmth of our car. We usually pick the highest spot that overlooks the city, park our car and watch the fireworks explode, filling our tummies with snacks and hot drinks. The night usually begins with a hearty meal at home beforehand and we're suckers for something warming and filling and inherently autumnal.

 

Below you'll find 5 of the best gluten free comforting meals to enjoy on Bonfire Night. I've also included my favourite indulgent gluten free sticky toffee pudding brownies and a super easy recipe for lactose free pumpkin spice lattes you can make at home and fill a flask with before you head out! Remember, remember, the 5th of November!

Gluten-Free Portuguese Custard Tarts - #GBBOGlutenFree

These mini gluten-free Portuguese tarts are the perfect flaky treat, filled with rich custard and a hint of cinnamon and vanilla!

Yield: 16 mini tarts
Prep time: 10 minutes
Cook time: 17 minutes

Gluten-Free Portuguese Custard Tarts

For years I've seen Portuguese custard tarts in shops and restaurants and could never bring myself to try them. It was something about the perceived texture of them that put me off. It's such a shame because these little treats are absolutely incredible! They're easy to whip up but look as if they take an absolute age. 

A note on the texture: they've got the feel of crème brûlée! Infact, that's essentially what these tarts are: mini crème brûlée in a flaky pastry crust. There's nothing to worry about, just whip up a custard base like for homemade ice cream and you're all set to go! I've stuck with the traditional approach and added in a pinch of cinnamon and made mine out of puff pastry as they'd do in Portugal. But you could use shortcrust pastry if you can't find ready made gluten free puff. 

Now, the contestants on Great British Bake Off made their own puff pastry from scratch, which you can certainly do yourself, but be warned, making gluten-free puff is crazy enough to drive you insane. Even the shop bought gluten-free puff pastry can be difficult to handle!

Gluten-Free Millionaire's Shortbread #GBBOGlutenFree

Cater to your sweet tooth with this super easy recipe for Gluten Free Millionaire's Shortbread in this week's #GBBOGlutenFree bake along!

 

Yield: 1 dozen biscuits
Prep time: 30 minutes
Cook time: 12 minutes

Gluten-Free Millionaire's Shortbread

So this week, I'm cheating. Last week's technical challenge was stroopwafel--super thin Dutch pancakes that require a special waffle press that I could have bagged from Amazon for £25 but didn't think I'd be likely to use it again, so I decided to skip the stroopwafels and opted instead for last week's signature: Millionaire's Shortbread!

Millionaire's Shortbread is a classic British treat -- chunky pieces of shortbread biscuits/cookies slathered with caramel and topped with a thin slab of chocolate. They're kind of like Twix candy bars, actually, except the chocolate is tempered and finishes with a crisp snap instead of a soft bite like on a Twix. They're surprisingly easy to make and they make for a great impressive dessert!

This hearty, slow cooked stew is gluten free and full of flavour and whips up effortlessly!

Yield: 6 to 8
Prep time: 10 minutes
Cook time: 4 to 8 hours

Gluten-Free Slow Cooker Chicken Cacciatore

As soon as the weather turns chilly, the slow cooker resumes its autumn and winter home atop my kitchen counter. Last week, we had this decadent chicken cacciatore stew bubbling away for 8 hours one day and it was absolutely delicious! Like any good slow cooker recipe, it's filled with everything you need to keep you full!

Now ordinarily chicken cacciatore has olives in it, but this one doesn't because I don't like olives, but if you like them, add them in! And while we're on the subject, if there are things you don't like, feel free to leave them out or swap them--the choice is yours. You've gotta eat it; you should be in control of what goes in it.

Whip up your own gluten-free and lactose-free pumpkin spiced latte, topped with lactose-free whipped cream just in time for the arrival of autumn!

Lactose-Free Pumpkin Spice Latte

This time of year all I need is my favourite autumn accessory: a pumpkin spice latte. I hear you laughing, "A drink as an accessory?!" Believe me; with as often as I've got a homemade latte clutched in my hands, it certainly is an accessory! This pumpkin spice latte is different, though, it's completely lactose free--from the frothy milk inside to the crown of whipped cream on top. And I'm warning you: it's pretty much life.

Oh and one more thing before we get to the ingredients list, don't be tied down by my measurements. Everybody likes their coffee differently. Use as much sugar as you like or no sugar. Make it a triple espresso if want it stronger or even opt for decaf coffee instead. Your brew; your rules!
