Hey, and welcome to the Virtuelicious podcast: food hacks and fun chats :) After years of working long hours and not having time to cook, I felt unhealthy, lethargic and fed up. I needed to make a change. Over the years I learnt how to cut corners without compromising on great taste and healthy options. And now I'm going to share everything I have learnt with YOU. I'll share my quick cook tips so that you can spend more of your time doing what you want. We'll cover meal planning, food prep, time saving gadgets, batch cooking, even dinner parties! Come, join us :) x

22. Following a Recipe vs Cooking without a Recipe

FREEBIE!!! meal planning checklist: https://mailchi.mp/7ba3e8b8584f/fjki0gt351

In this episode of the podcast we are talking about when I thought I recipe compared to when I don't follow a recipe and also when I'll take the middleground and take inspiration from a recipe but go off on my own tangent :-)

I might follow a recipe when I want to learn new techniques, experiment with new cuisines or flavours, or I just want to indulge in the joy of cooking.

But then there are times when I might not want to follow recipe, or I might want to tweak a recipe. I might do that when I am limited by the type of ingredients I have, for example by what's in season or what needs using up in the fridge. I may also tweak a recipe to cater to my own taste, or to make it suitable to a particular diet e.g. vegetarian or to make it healthy.

Here's the recipe for the orange cake we will be discussing in the Clubhouse chat on Tuesday at 6pm (send me a message through any of the Virtuelicious social media channels and I'll send you the link): https://www.theguardian.com/food/2020/sep/28/claudia-rodens-orange-and-almond-cake

I hope you enjoy this episode, I'd love to hear from you.

Happy Eating :) x
