Ah, hello autumn! It is getting dark earlier, there is frost in the morning and it’s cold! I think it is fair to say that summer is officially over. But in a way I kind of like the change in season. It opens up a new opportunity of recipes and latest seasonal goodies. I think of stews, pears, apples, oranges, plums and soups when it comes to Autmn so stay tuned for those recipes!
Autumn is also my busiest time of year with it being a popular time for work events so my schedule is always packed out. Combine that with trips back to the UK for weddings, hen parties, visting friends and family and it is fair to say that I have no spare time. Which is where this recipe comes in handy. It can be put together in no time, its light, healthy and the wasabi gives it that extra kick to keep you warm this autumn!
