So I’ve been MIA for a while, those of you that follow me on social media will know why. We started our kitchen extension and it’s just been a never ending job, anyone who has been through a renovation will know exactly what I mean! Anyhow, I’ve been meaning to upload some of the newer […]
Chicken Shawarma is a popular Middle Eastern street food. Similar to what us Brits call Doner Kebabs, the meat for a Shawarma is typically made from either lamb, mutton, beef, veal or chicken. It’s usually cooked on a vertical rotisserie and is shaved off as the meat cooks. My take on Chicken Shawarma may not […]
Hey, how’s it going? Long time no see. Sorry I haven’t been on here recently, it’s been difficult trying to find time to sit down and have a quiet moment to work on recipes since my kitchen renovation started. Every day brings an untold amount of dirt and dust into the house, not to mention […]
Samosas are really delicious and I rarely come across people who don’t enjoy eating them, BUT almost everyone I know who makes them, hates making them. Me included, lol! That said, samosas are definitely worth the time and trouble it takes to make them, especially if you can change up the filling like I’ve done […]
I love a good frozen snack, some of my favourites are samosas, kebabs and savoury pastries. All of these snacks can be made well in advance and stored until they’re needed.

These Sticky Ginger Soy Chicken Niblets are a real crowd pleaser, but best of all they are super easy to make. Toss all of the ingredients together in a bowl, add your chicken (you can use niblets or wings, both work really well) and then fry them off, it’s as easy as 1, 2, 3! […]
Kewra water (also known as Kevda) is a distilled extract derived from the pandanus flower and is better known in South Asian cuisine as Pandan leaf extract. Kewra water is mainly used in North Indian cuisine, being very aromatic it is not commonly associated to savoury dishes and is favoured for desserts or drinks. Using […]
This Chicken with Vegetable Empanadas recipe is something I whipped up one evening for dinner. I had an awful lot of carrots and cabbage in my fridge and wanted to use them up, so added them to the filling of my empanadas. A simple seasoned filling, this makes a great lunch box meal for kids […]
This week has certainly been unpredictable in terms of the weather – we’ve had sun, rain, hail stones with ice cold temperatures and I don’t think it’s about to get better anytime soon. The one thing you CAN be certain of this week is that Afelia’s Chicken Kebabs will delight you, if you do decide […]
