Me, on a hot day and after running two nutrition and cooking group programs before heading to a community talk for carers and consumers 🤓☀️ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I work with individuals living with mental illness @onedoormh and through the NDIS 💭 Work depends on the needs of the individual, but mainly involves helping people to grow more confident and empowered with practical skills around shopping, cooking and understanding foods, and lead healthier lives 🙄 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ The people I work with remind me of just how challenging life can be and how everyone is fighting their own unique battle in some way 🔥 Facing today is the sunrise of hope and courage, and you're not alone ☀️ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Walking with others on their recovery path does have its low moments, so self-care is even more important (and something that I'm still working on 😅). Hope this is a small but thoughtful prompt for everyone to fit in some self-care this weekend or even tonight! 😁 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Happy Friday! 🙌

A sweet pre-anniversary evening with layers and layers of heart-warming surprises with my special human ❤️😄 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Dining at @spicealleysydney became a chain of unexpected fun when we ran into a lion dance crew 🤓 → whom later danced into our dinner destination 😅 → to pounce for the lettuce hanging right beside me 😂 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Through dining at @automata_syd I learnt how fermented chilli could taste like "chilli" minus the spicy/hot sensation 🌶️🌶️ and how well umeboshi goes with pork 🐷 Thanks for the mindblowing tastebud experience 🙌 Swipe to see the dishes and the smiles from our evening out 😊 (and my go-to next-day brunch) 🥞 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ What wonders a pair of open minds can find in one evening 😁🐷 It was so freeing to simply offer ourselves to the night and let it unfold the details ❤️ shred them expectations like lettuce leaves and you might just find the good vibes more easily 😉 Ready for the week ahead!

Happy Lunar New Year everyone! 🐷 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ It's this time of year again, with plenty of gatherings, food and festivities for the coming week 🙌 Sharing the love and well wishes of safety, prosperity and progress! ❤️ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Here's my medley of edible festivities so far 😁 Featuring my pork and shiitake dumpling parcels with chilli soy sauce 😄 (the chilli was quite mild, but yes to progress!) Can you guess which of the rest are homemade vs dining out? 🤓 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ 新年快樂，豬豬平安! 🐷

Long weekend leftovers well spent in a homemade okonomiyaki topped with pork belly strips, squiggled and topped with kewpie mayo, @bulldog_sauce and katsuobushi (dried bonito flakes) 😄 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Okonomiyaki are Japanese style savoury pancakes (or large fritters) featuring shredded cabbage and any other veg, then add canned tuna, flour and enough water to make a thick batter 👌 A great way to use up leftover veg 😉 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Katsuobushi or dried bonito fish flakes add an umami hit to the dish. Love how they look like they're dancing on your okonomiyaki as you sprinkle them on 😁❤️ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ In Japan, different prefectures have their own signature style of making okonomiyaki, such as adding a fried egg, noodles, seafood or strips of pork belly 🤓 The word "okonomi" means "your way", so I guess anything goes 😊

Chilled tofu topped with preserved century egg, soy sauce and shallots 👌 Shout out to one of the meals that helped to keep me cool over the long weekend ❄️😄 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Chilled tofu, or hiyayakko, is one of my faves - a refreshing and light source of plant based protein 🤓 Merge it with a century egg (yes, the egg is actually black!) and it becomes a classic taiwanese dish 皮蛋豆腐 ❤️ Alternatively, enjoy it with chilled canned or flaked salmon, or keep it simple with a drizzle of soy sauce and chopped shallots ☺️ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Slightly fancy, but never gets old 😋 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Got any go-to dished to help you keep cool? Happy Monday!

On a hot day like today, you might just need a board of mini mushroom "sausage" rolls, a chilled bowl of guac, easy cooling tuna salad and a dab of caramelised onion relish 😁☀️👌🥑 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ These vegetarian "sausage" rolls are a variation of my mushroom and oats "meatballs" recipe - aka moatballs! 😄🍄 #newrecipe #comingsoon but meanwhile check out my moatball recipe in spag bol, link to my website in my bio 😃 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ High fibre and has that moreish texture of sausages 😆 The meat-loving members of my family gave it an instant thumbs up 🙌 Most definitely worth a go! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Happy Friday, and stay cool! ❄️
