New Ventures
Over the past few days I have really been focusing on my business and what I want to give back to the world. I no longer wish for my kitchen to be solely based on myself or those closest to me. I want to reach out further, I want to reach out to the community and provide a sincere network dedicated to helping those in need of a support group. We all have a relationship with food whether good or bad, each dish tells a story and artificial or natural all food is nourishment. Through my food journey I have realised that food is love and I have realised that Kamaria’s Kitchen can potentially bring hope into other people’s lives. This meal that I cooked for myself on a solo night of thinking is not just a dinner, it’s a dinner where I decided to develop my already great ambitions and turn my passions into another super power. Also, pine nuts does wonders to the texture of soft pasta dishes. This meal also tastes great as a salad with the addition of mayonnaise and salmon.
This recipe was taken from Nigella Lawson’s Nigella Kitchen ( Chatto & Windus, 2014).
