Pulled pork bao buns

Pulled pork bao buns

Bao buns are a delicacy throughout many parts of Asia. I think of them as an Asian-type burger, just healthier than the versions we are used to! When filled with slow-cooked and pulled pork shoulders complimented by barbeque sauce, spring onions, coriander, onions, sesame seeds and the compulsory chilli, the result is a sticky mess to devour with your hands. Definitely not first date food! Or maybe it should be?!

We live in KZN and every family has their version of the best bunny. I’ve added my twist to the faithful Durban bunny by making lamb tikka masala instead. this curry has a ton of ingredients, but the end result is so well worth it, that I am sure this will become your new go-to curry! Do yourself a favour and go to the trouble of baking your own bread. These little loaves are so soft and fluffy, you will thank me later!

Lekker seafood paella

A festive occasion calls for a big statement, and this paella is just that: a colorful rice dish bursting with clams, mussels and shrimp along with smoky chorizo and saffron for tons of flavor. You don’t need much else to serve alongside it, but you could make a green salad if you feel inspired.
