Asian Marinated Tempeh on a Fresh Herb, Avocado and Kimchi Salad with a Peanut Dressing
As you can see from previous posts I absolutely love tempeh thanks to a little warung in Bali. You can marinade tempeh in any asian sauces as it just soaks up the flavours. It works perfectly with the fresh salad and pickled kimchi. I can have peanut sauce on anything this one is nice and…
Salt Beef Salad with Crispy Capers and a Three Mustard Dressing
If you look back at my posts you will see I made my own salt beef but you can just buy some. I always have different mustards in my cupboard. Beef and mustard is a classic combo, I couldn’t decide which one to use in the dressing so decided to mix all 3 it tasted…
Simple Tomato Carpaccio with Balsamic Vinegar, Olive Oil and Feta Cheese
Woo hoo sweet tomatoes have arrived. I was inspired by the dish when my hubby came home after being with a client at an Italian bistro. As the first question I ask him (before did you have a good day) is what did you have for lunch or dinner, he has got use to it…
Hot Smoked Salmon on Wild Rice and Peas
This is such a simple salad but delicious I cooked the rice in stock so it didn’t need a dressing I have found such a good technique which is foolproof for cooking the rice which stops it sticking together. Ingredients 1 fillet hot smoked salmon, skin removed 1 cup wild rice 1 1/2 cup chicken…
Burrata and Tomato Salad with Parmesan Croutons and a Tomato Dressing
I love tomatoes this time of year as they are so sweet and juicy. I learnt a tip while watching Raymond blanc that if you keep the tomatoes at room temperature and salt them and herbs and leave them for at least 30 minutes I don’t mind the seeds but you can always drain them…
Queen Elizabeth’s Coronation Chicken and Jersey Royals
So I couldn’t make anything more apt for Queen Elizabeth’s Jubilee celebration it was first made up for her coronation so I guess it’s truly hers there have been variations going as far back as George V but this version is my favourite . God bless the queen and Britain. Ingredients 2 chicken breasts 300…
Bacon, Jersey Royal and Rocket Salad with a Balsamic Dressing
Sometimes it’s nice to have a simple lunch and this salad does just that. It also uses up some leftover potatoes or you can just leave them out. It has a breakfast kinda vibe. I did my bacon and croutons in the air fryer (love my air fryer) but you can use the oven too….
Griddled Chorizo on a Pickled Fennel, Lentil and Tomato Salad
When I was out to lunch recently I had a dish which came with quick pickled cucumber and courgette salad, it was so delicious. I did this version using fennel as it holds up well to flavouring and I knew it wouldn’t get too soft. The pickling liquid isn’t too overpowering at all it actually…
Halloumi on a Green Salad of Shaved Asparagus, Avocado and Watercress topped with Homemade Fridge Pickles
This salad is so summery and seasonal. I normally fry the halloumi in a frying pan but for my photos I thought I would griddle it instead. As soon as I did I realised I would never pan fry it ever again. As the halloumi is slightly raised when cooking it completely removes the ‘squeak’…
Hoisin Tempeh with an Asian Jersey Royal Potato Salad Recipe
As you can see from my recent blog posts I’m really throwing myself into spring produce this year and making the most of produce from each season. This one is jersey royals. I cooked the whole pack, had some warm with a simple piece of fish and I had some leftover so fancied doing something…
Griddled Aubergine with Wild Garlic Pesto and Parmesan Shavings
We are having wild garlic pesto in everything at the moment. I don’t mind though as it’s delicious. I’m trying to be as inventive as I can to make it a bit more exciting. This vegetarian side dish was simple but so yummy all the flavours really stood out and it went perfectly with our…
Hot Smoked Salmon and Bruised Cucumber on a Dill and Parsley Salad with a Mustard Dressing
I’m starting to get so excited with the local produce season that’s on its way. I have missed so many things but sweet tomatoes and baby cucumbers that are in season now taste so fresh and of course asparagus is coming up. I’m also trying to get more herbs in my diet so trying to…
Ploughman’s Salad with Croutons and a Piccalilli Dressing
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…
Soy Sauce Tofu Salad with Satay Rice Noodles and Crispy Kale Chips
On a pretty grim day this is just what I needed. I usually cook my tofu but decided to leave it raw as it is smoked and had a nice firm texture. I got the crispness from the kale chips and spring onion. Satay is one of my favourite things, I made the dressing using…
