My Burnt Orange

My Burnt Orange Rediscover the Pan African Palate with us. African food has long had a bad reputation when it comes to eating healthy. That could not be further from the truth.

In fact, many emerging "trendy" health foods are of African origin such as teff and millet amongst others. We also create seasonal inspirations to suit the occasional sweet indulgence. Stay up to date with our page and our blog for our latest recipes.

Survival cooking mode: ON! 🍝✨ When you need a quick meal, pasta is always the ultimate go-to. I raided the fridge and brought together leftover bolognese, Parma ham, garlic, freshly cooked spaghetti, and a generous sprinkle of cheddar cheese. Quick, easy, and completely delicious, don’t forget to stir! 😋

A rainy, overcast day wasn’t stopping this adventure! 🌧️✨
Took a day trip to Imire Wildlife Conservancy—just about 1.5 hours out of Harare toward Marondera—and it was such a special experience. Imire is home to both black and white rhinos, doing critical work to protect these endangered species 🦏💛 Getting to hand-feed them, hang out near the giraffes (seriously, how do they sleep with those long necks?! 🦒), and meet iconic long-term residents like Mac the elephant 🐘 made it completely unforgettable.
If you’re ever in Zimbabwe, this day trip needs to be on your list! 🇿🇼

Ever cracked an egg into a bowl, only to realize too late that it’s bad? 🤢🍳
Before you ruin your whole dish, there’s a quick test every cook needs in their back pocket. No cracking required—just a bowl of cold water and 5 seconds.
Here’s how to read the test:
🥚 Sinks & Lays Flat: Super fresh.
🥚 Stands Upright at the Bottom: Older, but totally safe (actually perfect for hard-boiling!).
🥚 Floats to the Top: Air has built up inside toss it out!
Swipe through to see why this works and never waste an egg again! ➡️

10 years ago, I used to say I couldn’t bake to save my life… how things change! 💫

There is so much joy in getting completely carried away while making pretty, delicious things by hand. From making our own applesauce for carrot cakes to crafting almond cream from scratch we do everything the long way because we believe in real ingredients and pure passion.

Sometimes the extra effort is just pure love for the craft. ✨🌿🍰

The ultimate comfort meal: Tasty Sadza, Muriwo & Nyama. From browning the beef stew to finely slicing the sukuma wiki and building that thick, steaming sadza, this is pure soul food on a plate.
Which part of this plate are you reaching for first? 👇✨

Ever noticed a weird, bitter taste in your sauce and couldn’t figure out why? 🧄🔥
Here’s the truth: Your garlic is burning.
Minced garlic is super delicate. Throwing it into screaming-hot oil right alongside your onions burns it in under 30 seconds. Once it turns dark brown, that acrid flavor soaks into your entire dish—and no amount of heavy cream or salt can fix it!
Swipe through to grab my golden rules for perfectly sweet, aromatic garlic every single time.
Save this for your next dinner, and tell me in the comments—are you team minced, team sliced, or team smashed? 👇
