Halibut and Jersey Royals with a Lemon and Caper Sauce Recipe
The weather was lovely yesterday, on these warm days we only fancy something light for dinner. We would have this with just vegetables but as it is jersey royal season we are making the most of these lovely earthy new potatoes. Crushing them with a fork in the sauce is delicious and to top it…
Homemade Lemon and Coriander Crab Cakes Recipe

Scallop Queenie’s, Black Pudding, Pea’s and Mint
Last night we had some left over black pudding and had bought a frozen bag of Queen Scallops from Waitrose which were much more reasonably priced than hand dived king scallops from the fishmonger. As we have used Queenie’s in our fish pie previously we thought we would try them in the classic dish…
Spauly’s Spiced Potted Crab Recipe
So as you would know from our previous post of Paulie and I’s date day by the seaside we bought a crab. I usually find the recipes but Paulie was inspired by a recipe he found which had chilli and fennel seeds included, a combination we love. So we loosly based our version on this…
Best Ever Fish Pie With Rosti and Caper Topping
Paulie took out some smoked cod instead of plain cod which was bonus for me, only one thing for dinner, the best fish pie ever! It had been such a cold day with every type of weather possible, we had snow, sleet, rain, sunshine, it looked like all the seasons in one out of the…
