Mother’s Day has a way of bringing a lot to the surface — joy, tenderness, reflection, and love. However this day finds you, I hope there’s a moment in it that feels gentle. A moment to pause, to eat or cook something nourishing, or to sit at a table with someone who matters.
This collection of Recipes for Mothers Day is something I’ve put together to share just that — food that feels generous, comforting and just a little bit special.
This is a small, thoughtful collection — the kind of recipes you return to. Some are long-time favourites from my own kitchen, others are newer, but all are dishes I cook for the people I love.
You’ll find recipes that work just as beautifully for a slow breakfast as they do for a shared lunch or dinner. Dishes that can be prepared ahead, brought to the table with ease, and enjoyed without spending hours in the kitchen.
There’s a simplicity to these recipes, but also depth — from smoky paprika eggs with harissa toasts, to a beautifully roasted chook with chermoula, a vibrant green salad, and a couple of sweet dishes to finish.
Since 2009, I’ve been bringing people together around real food, recipes made to cook, share, and enjoy.
