Meat Free Mondays…
I had so much fun experimenting with the concept of meat free Mondays. The challenge set myself recently is to create a vegetarian and zero-waste dish at least once a week. This came from the realisation that I am daunted by cooking vegetarian dishes.

After a hectic few weeks my wife and I decided it was time to go for a weekend away. With two small children and a third on the way, it needed to be close enough to Cape Town to be able to drive to for a short two-night stay, yet far away to make it feel like the little get-away we needed.

The Early Beginnings of The Roasted Dad
It all started in the middle of the pandemic. During lockdown, I started to experiment with cooking more, trying out new techniques and buying different ingredients to create nice dishes with. To capture that journey, I opened a new Instagram account. It was in our kitchen, while enjoying a glass of red, that we threw a few name ideas around, until The Roasted Dad was born.
