I’ll be honest, some nights even I don’t want piles of washing up! 🤣 That’s where my book ‘One Wok, One Pot’ comes in.

It’s full of smart recipes that deliver big flavour with minimal mess. One pan + one pot = one. Getting dinner on the table without sacrificing taste (or your evening!).

Perfect for busy weeks, lazy weekends, or anyone who loves cooking but hates clearing up. Grab a signed copy here 👇

Honey and Lemon Chicken: crispy, tangy, sweet. And no deep fryer needed!

This one is close to my heart because it was a favourite growing up. I’ve been playing with the balance for years to get that sharp citrus hit just right. You want it sweet but not sickly with enough zing to make you go back for another bite.

So if you’re bored of Sweet & Sour and want something a little more grown up but still quick enough for a weeknight, give this one a go!

Two big events, one busy weekend!

📍 Car Fest this Friday
📍 Bolton Food & Drink Festival on Saturday & Sunday

If you’re heading to either, come say hi. I’ll be signing books, chatting with folks, and probably getting distracted by the smell of good food 😂 It's going to be a cracking weekend!

You know that one dish you always order every time you get a Chinese takeaway?
What if you could make it at home and it actually tasted just as good? Maybe even better.

Growing up in our family’s restaurant, I saw these classics fly out the door night after night and now, I’ve brought them to your kitchen.

The Chinese Takeaway Cookbook is packed with recipes that taste just like the real deal because they are the real deal! Passed down, tested, tweaked, and made simple so you can cook them at home. No chef training required! 👩‍🍳
