This dish became an over-dinner favourite. Again I ignored the RAF cookbook, which was soup, in favour of this dish which popped on a few websites as 'must try' Serbian favourite. This is essentially skinless sausages, made from mince, seemingly any variation with spices and herbs added, and traditionally cooked on a charcoal barbeque. Due …

Double whammy
Today there are two birds with one stone. This is a dish called Majboos, which is the national dish of Qatar, and Saudi Arabia. Depending on what you google, it might also be the national dish for Kuwait. It's a chicken based dish, served with rice; and it uses a lot of spices to build …
Food with a heavy heart

Hate Following and Social Media
I’m fairly active on my social media, I post less than I used to, but I still like to check in what everyone else doing, send likes, comments, that kind of thing. One thing I am horribly guilty of is ‘hate following’. I follow a couple of people I really don’t like very much and …
