Welcome to Djinhspired

I felt like cooking something using beef, but didn’t just want a steak. I thought it could be an idea to use the ingredients you may see with a steak but in a different format.

I love roasted peppers as they are incredibly easy to make and you can customise them to your own taste by adding whatever spices, vegetables, rice, quinoa and colours you happen to enjoy – go crazy!

I love egg-fried rice. You can mix it up and really make it your own style…here’s one of mine.

My love for beetroot this year has definitely blossomed. Here is a simple salad made for a charity lunch at the office.

I was graciously given some sous vide salmon the other day and this was a great opportunity to use it.

A great meal enjoyed any time of year. In Japan, in the summer I always remember the adverts that said a beer and curry makes for a good time.

A great tasting vegan dish that is so filling and incredibly easy to make as you can customise it to your own taste by adding whatever spices, vegetables and colours you happen to enjoy – go crazy!

Ratatouille originates from southern France and is a rustic stew created by simmering the ingredients for hours until tender. In this recipe I decided to “deconstruct” the dish by piling the veggies on rice.

I’d cooked a leg of Turkey the day before and so this was a meal made from scraps in my fridge. I can’t remember the exact method I used but feel free to read.
