Welcome to Off The Kerb! I’m Jo, a passionate home cook with over 40 years of experience, turning my love for food into a thriving street food business from my very own food truck. Now, I’m embarking on a new adventure—sharing my knowledge to show you just how easy and affordable it is to create delicious, home-cooked meals using quality ingredients. Join me on this journey, and let’s make cooking simple, tasty, and cost-effective together!
Welcome to my website! My passion for cooking began at an early age, sparked by the need to prepare meals when my mum started working shifts. This hands-on introduction to the kitchen quickly grew into a lifelong love for food. My best friend Julia and I spent countless hours after school concocting recipes—some delightful, others less so, but all part of our culinary adventure.
Growing up, takeaways were rare, limited to the occasional fish and chips, and food deliveries were unheard of. Meals were made from scratch with ingredients sourced from local butchers, greengrocers, and shops. This foundation shaped my belief in supporting local businesses, helping our economy, and fostering sustainability over reliance on large supermarkets.
I dream of seeing vibrant local markets, traditional butchers, and fresh produce shops thrive again—places where fresh, affordable food isn’t a luxury but a norm, much like in many parts of Europe. Unfortunately, policies often overlook these essential community hubs.
Here, I share how air fryer cooking can revolutionise your meals—bringing bold flavours while promoting a healthier lifestyle. What began as an experiment with an air fryer has turned into a passion for creating nutritious, exciting, and accessible homestyle dishes. I’m thrilled to share my culinary discoveries with you, making good nutrition simple, enjoyable, and full of flavour.
