Lamb is the only meat I don’t like cold in a leftover salad and as it isn’t the cheapest meat in the world it is satisfying to get another meal out of it. This recipe is simple but really tasty as I used spices and herbs on the slow roasted lamb. Perfect for Monday or…

Jerusalem Artichoke and Mushroom Soup
When I went to the farm shop at the weekend to get vegetables and salad for the week I was surprised to see that they still had the knobbly but tasty Jerusalem artichokes. I usually have them as a purée but they worked so well in this earthy soup. The apple really lifts the flavour…
Baked Cauliflower and Pea Pakora with a Mint and Yoghurt Dip
Indian food in the UK is really good. I have been watching come dine with me (I can watch endless cooking shows) and saw an Indian guy make pakoras and he fried them. All the diners commented how greasy they were so I thought I would have a go at baking them, they turned out…
Chicken, Pancetta, Mushroom and Kale Topped Jacket Potato
I find jacket potato a nice comforting weekday dinner, I also fancied a nice healthy comforting topping and this ticks all the boxes. Chicken, bacon and mushrooms is one of my favourite combos. it’s jazzed up with the sage and kale to add that final flourish. Ingredients (serves 2) 1 packet of smoked pancetta or…
Thai Prawn, Pea and Coconut Rice Salad
This salad is simple but really delicious. You can use any curry paste that is knocking about in the cupboard. I always seem to have a few spring onions and a piece of ginger in the fridge so this is a great way to use them up. I used frozen peas and prawns which makes…

Baked Honey and Chilli Feta on a Roasted Squash, Fennel, Sage and Garlic Salad
I love feta salads in the summer but I really wanted to use it in a comforting winter salad. I tried feta and honey in a tapas restaurant, they served their feta stuffed in Courgette flowers and then fried it was delicious. This recipe is just as nice. It is so comforting all the flavours…
Lamb Chops with a Zesty Redcurrant Gravy
I love all food but lamb has to be one of my favourites. Rather than waiting for the weekend to have a roast I fancied a mid week fix so opted for chops. It worked a treat. I don’t think I can eat lamb without rosemary and you can probably see from my posts I…
Bacon, Brussel Sprout and Quinoa Salad with a Harissa and Orange Dressing
I am firmly in the sprout camp and eating them raw in a salad is delicious. Luckily this year they are still available in my local farm shop so I am making the most of it. All the flavours in this salad work so well together. You get earthiness from the grains, crunch from the…
Pan Fried Gurnard on a Fennel and Parmesan Gratin
Keeping the healthy new year kick going I’m trying to cut out some of my carb intake. If you like liquorice or better still a shot of Pernod then you’ll love fennel as it have a lovely aniseed flavour. I always think Gurnard are such a pretty fish as they are red with yellow and…
