Instructions
- 1
Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F). Prepare the pastry crust by combining the flour, salt, and butter in a bowl. Mix until the dough comes together, then wrap it in plastic wrap and refrigerate for 10 minutes.
Tip: Use a light touch to prevent the butter from becoming too cold.
- 2
Roll out the pastry dough to a thickness of 3mm. Place it in a 20cm square baking dish and trim the edges.
Tip: Make sure the dough is evenly spread and the edges are smooth.
- 3
In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, cream, sugar, eggs, vanilla extract, and praline syrup until well combined.
Tip: Be patient and whisk until the sugar is fully dissolved.
- 4
Pour the milk mixture over the pastry crust and smooth the top.
Tip: Use a spatula to remove any air pockets that may have formed.
- 5
Arrange the almonds in a single layer over the custard.
Tip: Make sure the almonds are evenly spaced and not overlapping.
- 6
Bake the tiffin for 30-35 minutes, or until the pastry is golden brown and the custard is set.
Tip: Check the tiffin after 25 minutes and cover the edges with foil if they are browning too quickly.

Bacon & hot honey pancakes
You've got to try these bacon and hot honey pancakes because they're an absolute game changer for brunch. The beauty of this recipe is how quick it comes together, ready in less than 45 minutes from start to finish. I love the contrast of sweet and savoury with crispy bacon, melted cheese, and that gorgeous drizzle of hot honey that brings everything together. The jalapeños add a nice kick without overwhelming your taste buds, and red onions bring some real nutritional punch with their quercetin content, which actually supports heart health. This is simple comfort food that feels fancy but honestly requires minimal fuss in the kitchen.
Peach melba tatin
This is my favorite way to reinvent a classic dessert. By combining the elegance of Peach Melba with a show stopping tatin, you get a dessert that looks fancy but comes together in just over an hour. Peaches are wonderfully low in calories and packed with vitamin C, so you can feel good about indulging. The beauty of this recipe is that most home cooks already have puff pastry in the freezer, making it incredibly practical for unexpected guests. Caramelized peaches paired with tart raspberries and creamy vanilla ice cream create pure magic on the plate.
Tomato salad with chilli oil, Thai basil & burrata
This is one of my favorite summer dishes to throw together when tomatoes are at their peak. The combination of creamy burrata with juicy tomatoes and a punchy chilli oil dressing feels like a restaurant quality meal, but honestly, it comes together in under 40 minutes with minimal effort. The beauty of this salad is that it's genuinely good for you too, especially with the lycopene in the tomatoes which is brilliant for heart health. Plus, if you've got fresh Thai basil on hand, you're basically done. It's elegant enough for guests but simple enough for a solo lunch.
