Find out the story behind Delica Recipes – how it started, why it matters, and what I hope it brings to you. A simple part of my everyday life has grown into a journey that means a lot to me, and I’m happy to share it with you.
I grew up in a family where cooking wasn’t just a daily chore, but something we shared. My granny and mum taught me their ways around the kitchen. Though they’re no longer here, their lessons still are. From a young age, I learned that food isn’t just about eating – it’s about bringing people together, sharing stories, and creating memories around the table. Those moments shaped how I cook today – with an understanding that food can be one of the simplest yet most powerful ways to care for others.


Over the years, I’ve been fortunate to visit a few places, and Europe holds a special place in my heart. Food there feels like history – passed down, celebrated, and deeply personal. Every meal carries a story, connecting people across time and tradition. After each trip, I’d come home inspired to recreate the flavors I’d discovered, adapting them in my own way. What started as curiosity slowly became a part of me – a way to stay connected to the world through the food I make.
A few years ago, I moved to Sydney, Australia. Starting fresh in a new country made me realize it was time to follow my heart instead of my job. Over the past 20 years, I’ve collected recipes that aren’t just tasty but actually doable when time is short. I never planned to start a food blog, but this new chapter inspired me to share the meals I cook every day. My hope is to bring a little warmth, ease, and joy to your kitchen, no matter how busy life gets.

Cooking here isn’t just about feeding yourself – it’s about enjoying the process, exploring new flavors, and creating moments to share with loved ones.
