Brunch lovers, this one’s for you! With Independence weekend giving us the perfect excuse to slow down and indulge, this recipe is just what you need to elevate your brunch table. If you know me, you’ll know brunch is my love language, and this dish has quickly become our ultimate Sunday brunch favourite at home. It’s comforting, flavour-packed, and brings just the right hint of heat to wake up your taste buds. Honestly, it ticks all the boxes for the perfect brunch recipe.
This stir-fry is incredibly easy to make, with minimal prep and a cook time
of under 20 minutes. It’s perfect served hot straight from the pan, but also
freezer-friendly for meal prep. Just portion into ziplock bags, freeze and
reheat on the stove for 1-2 minutes when ready to enjoy.
While it’s a brunch must-have, it’s just as versatile for lunch or dinner.
Serve it over rice, tucked into wraps, tossed with noodles, layered on a
pizza, or even stuffed into a calzone; the options are endless.
"I feel
flipping fantastic because I turned 28 today!"
Yes, today is my birthday, Alhamdulillah (Praise God), and what
better time to share my go-to pancake recipe.
If you know me, you know I LOVE breakfast!It's my favourite meal of the day and I love mixing sweet and savoury
together for the perfect breakfast. Not only are these pancakes
delicious for Sunday brunch, but you can also whip them up for some
breakfast for supper.
"On Sunday's we brunch, and what better day to make Shakshuka."
I know, I know it's Monday. I forgot to post this recipe yesterday, anyway... so let's get to it. Shakshuka is a popular go-to breakfast and brunch recipe that features poached eggs in a delicious, spiced tomato-based sauce.
The dish originates from around Northern Africa and the Middle East and has become very popular in recent years. The word 'shakshuka' derives from Arabic, literally translating to "all mixed up" and is pronounced as "shack-shoe-kah."
I will be sharing my go-to 3 versions of this meal, from the fastest as traditional as it gets recipe, to a recipe that's a bit of a twist and really having it live up to it's "all mixed up" name.
I love how this meal is so quick to whip up and really makes breakfast extra special. It's best to make this in a nonstick pan, it should be served immediately, and you can be as flexible as you want with the ingredients.
Hey, I’m Zainab — cooking (and eating) is how I embrace my chubby cheeks, and bring a little joy to the kitchen! I love blending flavours, spices, and cultures to create recipes that are as fun to make as they are to eat. Think bold spices, fusion twists, and meals that are fancy enough to impress but easy enough to whip up any day of the week.
Every recipe I share is something we’ve actually eaten at home — no food styling fakery here (well, maybe just a bit of garnish magic). My step-by-step photos and videos walk you through every stage, so whether you're a kitchen newbie or a seasoned pro, you’ll plate up something delicious and beautiful in no time.
