Peri Peri Coconut & Tofu Curry

Family dinners are something of an anomaly these days. Screens are here, there and everywhere with the lure of social sites tempting us to us to snap, post, like and comment.

The number of hours we spend scrolling has become so significant that it’s been factored into our lives as ‘screen time’ in an effort to make people a little more conscious of how much of their day they’re spending online.

Whenever we find ourselves static, it’s easy to pick up a phone, tablet or laptop for a welcome distraction. With that in mind, it may come as no surprise that meal time is one of the biggest victims in the era of tech-centric living. It’s a rare site that you find yourself sitting through a family dinner uninterrupted by the presence of some sort of gizmo or gadget.

It’s not like the good ole’ days, where family dinner was as routine as your morning commute to work, but that’s something we’re here to change! We have a challenge for you! Cancel your Friday night plans, gather the fam, ditch your phones and prepare to cook up a storm followed by an evening of good food and great conversation! Our delicious Peri Peri coconut curry recipe is the perfect dish to dig into & will have everyone coming back for seconds.
