This Udon Stir Fry is all about the textures for me. It checks all the boxes. Sweet… salty… a little chew from the noods… very very yummy. Everyone around here loves this dish and I love making it. I mean, who doesn’t love a one pan meal? My secret weapon […]

Welcome to my site! I'm a self-taught, home cook who pretty much lives in the kitchen. Or with my nose in a cookbook. Cooking is my passion, my obsession, my very favourite thing. I make a lot of really good comfort food with creative twists and bolder flavours. My food is slightly elevated but isn't too fussy. I'm not here to teach you how to cook, I'm here to inspire you, to show you something new and really, really good. And to make you hungry. In my home, in The Pypers Kitchen, this is what we eat.
