This fragrant Lamb Shank Curry w/ Coconut Milk is one to make when you want to take good care of yourself and need some soul satisfying food. I made this for myself and enjoyed it with roti and the next day with rice. It takes a bit of time, but the result is worth the wait and if you make this the day before all the flavours incorporate better. Try it soon!

In my second cooking video, I slightly modified the concept to stay closer to myself and share my favorite Surinamese and Asian dishes. But I will also show you which restaurants or trends I am inspired by, because in this series I want to Cook with LOBI (LOVE)!

This comforting and rich Thai soup is one of my favorite soups out there! I love the Thai flavors, crunchy textures, and creamy broth. It’s a perfect pick me up or light meal on a hot or cold day.

Most of you know that I was born in Surinam and that my roots are in India and Nepal. My mother’s stories about her grandparents who came from India: how they lived, what they cooked and how they ate, captivated me from an early age. But it was only when we lived in the Netherlands, and I started cooking more that we started to enjoy the authentic Indian cuisine and created our favorite dishes, such as Chicken Tandoori, Biryani, Naan, Chutneys and many more. In this recipe, I teamed up with Xenos and created an easy Tandoori Chicken Burger for a midweek meal! Are you ready for this?

This Japanese take on Dan Dan noodles is just as delicious as the Chinese version of it. The Tantamen Ramen Noodles are served in a aromatic and creamy broth and paired with spicy chicken and crunchy veggies! If you are a fan of soups, spicy food and Asian flavours then you don’t want to miss out on this recipe!

This fun and refreshing drink consists of soy milk, blue tea and black tea pearls with caramel syrup. It’s a colourful take on the orginal with black tea but just as amazing! Try out this colourful drink yourself!

Easy Indian Samosa’s anyone? Yes, it is possible! I made these easy peasy Samosa rolls with rice paper and shallow fried them in some oil. You don't have to do that too, but that crispy exterior does it for me! Check out the recipe and make this vegetarian en gluten free snack soon!

One of the most popular foods you can find in Asian cuisine are potstickers. Delicious hearty dumplings filled with meat or veggies, wrapped in dough and then fried and steamed in a pan. I’m taking these potstickers a bit further and adding a Truffle Tapenade to it. Come join me and make this luxurious, aromatic and popular meal at home!
