Amazing I can’t wait to have this again with different types of white fish. I saw this idea on Saturday kitchen. It looked so amazing I just had to try it. I tweaked it a little bit by adding fish stock instead of wine as I thought it would too be acidic, it worked perfectly….

Slow Roasted Lamb Stuffed with Dates, Apricots and Rosemary served with Red Wine Gravy and Couscous
Slow cooked roasts are my favourite way of cooking. There was a boneless rolled joint on offer in the supermarket so I couldn’t resist it. I usually have joints on the bone so this gave me the opportunity to stuff it. It was so yummy and came out perfectly, I didn’t think roast potatoes would…
Lemon and Pepper Monkfish Medallions with a Hot Lemon Vinaigrette
If you fancy trying a non-fishy fish (I know that sounds crazy) and want to wow guests with something different try this recipe. Monkfish is more meaty and chunky, it is a bit like chicken, it is tasty and sweet but is firm enough to take on spices, you can even use it for a…
Fake Away Friday Crispy Sweet and Sour Pork
I love all the crispy Chinese dishes such as crispy chilli beef, crispy duck and pancakes, pancake rolls, sweet and sour king prawn and the list goes on. We have a new butchers that has opened in our town so we went to check it out and I noticed they had some pork stir fry…
Sous Vide Pork Fillet on Garlic and Thyme Borlotti Beans with Salsa Verde
This dinner was delicious. My husband and I treated ourselves to a sous vide machine and it has been a revelation. We first made char Sui pork and the meat was so tender. This time we thought we would keep it simple, the pork flavour is amazing and the meat just melts in the mouth….
Slow Cooked Pulled Lamb with Shallots, Garlic and Balsamic Vinegar
Roast lamb is my favourite roast ever particularly when really slow cooked. We usually make merguez lamb which is so delicious, tasty and juicy but I thought I would mix it up as I saw a similar recipe to this on a cooking show. I was not disappointed it tasted that good that I was…

I had some pork fillet and decided to give this a go as beef fillet is so expensive. I wasn’t disappointed it tasted so yummy and was a fraction of the cost. It was a pork feast with the parma ham too. Who doesn’t like crispy pasty filled with delicious flavours. It would make a…
Tempura Prawn’s and Courgette’s with a Soy Dipping Sauce and Noodle Salad Recipe
I finally treated myself to a deep fat fryer as I have wanted one for a while. Tempura was one f the recipes I really wanted to try. Courgette’s are right in season at the moment so I thought they would work well and believe me they did! Crispy outside and soft in the center….
Fish Friday – Sea Trout Fillets on a Chorizo, Leek and Lentil Ragu Recipe
We were at the fishmongers and spotted the most beautiful sea trout and they kindly gave us some fillets. They were so delicious and worked so well with the chorizo and earthy lentils. I can’t wait to make it again. As you can see from the picture we are very lucky to have such a…
Simple Hummus Recipe to Complete Platter for Dinner
I love bits and pieces, platter or meze for dinner. When Paulie is in London all day he doesn’t fancy cooking so it gives us a chance to eat all of the preserved recipes I have made as well as a big bowl of hummus that I make while he is out. Paulie got the…
Stunning Roast Turbot, Lemon and Fennel with a Tarragon Sauce
What a terrific treat the king of the flatfish, the almighty turbot. This is like lobster a special treat as you pay for the whole fish but a lot of bone is discarded. That’s why I found simple dish Paulie could make so we could really enjoy the true flavour of the meat. Aniseed is…
