Being british I love a good ploughman’s with a dollop of piccalilli or pickle. To cut down the calories I thought I would try it as a salad oh my word it is delicious I love the added crunch from the lettuce and cucumbers and the sweetness from the peas. The cheese added a welcome…

Simple Smoked Trout and Gherkin Salad with a Honey Mustard Dressing
I love this time of year as all the cured fish and meats are available and there are usually offers too. I love smoked trout as it is more delicate than salmon. Gherkins and smoked fish go so well together and you get a lovely sweetness from the honey mustard. Ingredients (serves 2) 100g pack…
Horseradish Jersey Royal Potato Salad with Roast Beef and Chive’s
I love jersey royal season, they are so creamy compared to the usual new potatoes, though I don’t mind them ever. I love a potato salad and it seems to be popular in the US I think we probably stole the idea from them. I bought some roast beef slices but I don’t think they…
Black Bean Salsa with Ham and Parmesan Corn on the Cob
I love Mexican bean salads, it’s a good way to use up spring onion tops and any herbs you have. I have tried to just grill corn on cob but it’s never tender enough so I use chef mic to tenderise them first. I recently watched a food myth programme and they tested steaming veg,…
Teriyaki Tempeh on an Asian Salad with Miso Aubergine
I thought this was mine and P’s first time trying tempeh but he reminded me we had it Bali. I remembered it straight away, we had hired a car and we were exploring the island. It was lunchtime so we looked out for a restaurant. Nestled amongst the rice paddy fields was a restaurant that…
Hot Smoked Salmon and Avocado with Parsley and Mint Pesto Jersey Royal Potato Salad
This is such a good time of year for produce some of my favourites are asparagus, wild garlic and of course the first harvest of jersey royals. Jersey royals are creamy, buttery but still nice and firm so what better way to eat them other than warm (these were my leftovers from another dinner) in…
Ham and Pasta Salad with an Olive and Sun dried Tomato Tapenade Dressing
Sometimes it’s lunchtime and I realise I haven’t got any fresh ingredients apart from a bit of salad and a slice of ham. Paulie is working from home so I need to knock something together, solution, jars in the cupboard. I love Mediterranean flavours and small pasta in a salad. This is quick and an…
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…
Asian Stir Fried Hoisin Tofu and Prawn with a Herb Salad and Lemongrass Dressing
What isn’t to like about sticky prawns and tofu smothered in hoisin sauce served alongside simple sweet carrots, beans and a fresh and vibrant herb salad all finished off with a zesty dressing. This is a simple but delicious Asian salad bowl. Ingredients (serves 2) For the salad bowl 1 baby gem or and salad,…
Leftover Sausage and Sun Dried Tomato Salad with Parmesan Croutons and a Brown Sauce Dressing
So we had a couple of sausages leftover from dinner one night and a stub of sourdough so I thought I would make a salad. It worked really well and had a really comforting flavour. The crunch from the croutons really finish off. It kind of tastes like a deconstructed breakfast. I really loved the…
Luxurious Brixham Crab and Truffle Mac and Cheese
so on our trip to my hometown Torquay we stopped off at Brixham to go to the fishmongers. Brixham fish is famous particularly the plaice and crab. The day we went it was freezing cold and windy as we made our way along the harbour to the fish market, I was so happy to see…
Corned Beef, Griddled Chicory and Walnut Salad with a Pommegranate Molasses Dressing
I love proper corned beef, the spices really penetrate the meat and it also just melts in your mouth. The Chicory or endives do need a sprinkle a sugar and caramelisation as the leaves are so bitter. The walnuts add a nice crunch and you get a citrusy sweet flavour from the pomegranate molasses. Ingredients…
Prawn, Chorizo and Avocado Salad with Crispy Capers and Eggless Lime and Chilli Mayo
Oh my this salad was so yummy. I enjoyed every mouthful the sweet prawns with the spicy chorizo and cooling avocado, then you get the peppery watercress and crispy salty capers, all finished off with a zingy mayo. I used delicious prawns from greenland, they have so much flavour and sweetness. I also used a…
Fruity Caribbean Jerk Chicken and Bean Salad Bowl with a Ginger, Honey and Lime Dressing
This salad was so tasty. I have a slight obsession with jerk chicken. We went on a cruise in the Caribbean just before Christmas and I didn’t have any jerk chicken (and was getting worried) just lots of bar b que fish, rice and plantain. The day before the cruise ended we went to the…
Partridge, Pear, Pomegranate and Pecan Salad Recipe
So the Autumn is upon us and that means game season is here. I always think partridge are a little small as a main meal so I decided to use it in a salad instead. I have seen partridge and pear together before on restaurant menu’s but thought why stop at 2 p’s so I…
