    The Foodbod Pod: Season 2 Episode 14 - It's All About Flavour

    Elaine “Foodbod” Boddy welcomes back home cook and social media food influencer, Sophie Rushton-Smith whose Instagram and TikTok pages provide countless ideas and inspiration for quick, one-pan meals that are flavourful and delicious. Sophie’s inspiration comes from whatever she finds in her cupboards and the fridge coupled with several key ingredients she always has at hand to create fast, easy meals. A scientist in her professional life, Sophie has an encyclopaedic knowledge of ingredients and understands how to put them together to create deliciously easy meals that are different every time rather than sticking to rigid recipes. Elaine hosts Sophie in her home kitchen to prepare three easy vegetable dishes. There’s a plateful of carrot, broccoli, red onion and baby King Oyster mushrooms cooked in a honey and Ve-du-ya sauce and topped with a creamy fried egg. Then comes ramen noodles with the rest of the vegetables prepared in a ginger miso broth with crispy chilly oil to add a touch of crunch and spice. And finally, a simple fruit & burrata salad with an orange kefir dressing. It's an explosion of flavours!

But she does so much more, as she tells Elaine while preparing and baking two delicious recipes – the French delicacy chouquettes and an upside down salted honey pecan cake.
