Sometimes you just need a dinner that feels special but takes no time at all…

That’s the vibe this week with my Zesty Pork Steaks with Mushrooms. Pork steaks are so underrated—they’re juicy, affordable, and cook super quickly. Add garlicky mushrooms and a fresh, lemony dressing, and you've got a flavour-packed dinner on the table in 20 minutes.

This is one of those meals that feels a bit grown-up but takes less effort than boiling pasta.

A cosy little twist on curry night… and ready in 20 minutes! 🍛

This week I’m sharing something I’ve been loving: Curry-Stuffed Naans. Think soft, golden naan, filled with a warming turkey mince curry, folded over, crisped up in the pan—and totally delicious.

They’re quick, satisfying, and a fun way to switch up your usual dinners (without making a huge mess in the kitchen).

📌 Here’s the recipe:
