I always order calamari when I’m out as long as it’s fresh. My favourite bits are the tentacles. It has to be a really crispy batter and have a good amount of seasoning. They key is for the oil to be smoking and to literally cook it for a max of 2 minutes. These were…

Leftover Pork Stir Fry with Cauliflower Rice and Char Siu Sauce
If you’ve got some leftover pork or chicken, this is delicious. This recipe has loads of flavour and it’s so quick an easy to make. You can just chuck in any vegetables you have, fresh or frozen. I used a mix of both. I was tired from a long day at work and this was…
Asian Marinated Tempeh on a Fresh Herb, Avocado and Kimchi Salad with a Peanut Dressing

Pan Fried Hake on a Tomato and Chive Beurre Blanc Sauce
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….
Black Pudding Bon Bons
My husband loves black pudding and so do I to be fair. I think the reason I love it so much is because I love spices and black pudding has lovely earthy and warming spices to it. I am quite fussy with it though I’ve had a few bad ones where the iron flavour is…
Chinese Leftover Chicken, Sweetcorn, Egg and Noodle Soup
Chicken roast is so simple but probably my favourite roast of all time, I always have Yorkshire puddings and crispy roast potatoes and no veg 🫣. Chicken gravy is epic too if you use the chicken juices and a good quality stock. So after my roast I had a gorgeous carcass left and I always…
Very Simple Pea and Mint Dip
What else screams british summer apart from Pimms? Peas and mint! I made some black pudding Bon Bon’s (recipe to follow) and needed a really light dip to go with them. I didn’t have much in the kitchen but I did have peas in the freezer and mint in the garden. This was so easy…
Spaghetti Squash Pasta with Pancetta, Tomatoes and Peas with a Light Lemon Creamy Sauce
I think you either love or hate imitation noodles or pasta. I personally love them and don’t miss the carb side at all. I don’t substitute them all the time but when it’s a skinny day I’m quite happy too. I have also got into dairy free products recently, Paul my husband has asthma and…
Salt Beef Salad with Crispy Capers and a Three Mustard Dressing

Miso Tan Tan Ramen with Black Bean Pork
I had never heard of tan tan noodles before until I saw them on a program called great British takeaways. It got really good reviews from the public who ate it so I just had to give it a go. I started some research and came across a really good recipe that used soy milk…
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…
Homemade Salt Beef
This recipe is amazing. I’ve made my own corned beef before but this is much better not to sound weird but you can taste the beef so much better as it doesn’t cook in the spices it is only brined in them so they are a delicate background flavour. it seems a long recipe but…
