This soup is packed full of flavour - it's spicy, coconutty and hearty.

I made it with a combination of butternut squash and sweet potato – but you can make this with your favourite root vegetables, carrots and swede work well. Plus adjust the ingredients to make it as spicy or mild as you like!

I like to put a spoon of soy or coconut yogurt through it just before serving to make it extra creamy.

You do you - it’s all zen!

Happy cooking,

These coffee and salted caramel cupcakes were born because I couldn’t decide between baking salted caramel cupcakes or coffee and walnut cakes. So I decided I didn’t have to choose!
I like the coffee flavour to be strong. Hence the 3 teaspoons! If you prefer a more mellow flavour just add a little less – it’s all zen!
