Fruity Caribbean Jerk Chicken and Bean Salad Bowl with a Ginger, Honey and Lime Dressing

Wow these were delicious. I have always been a little scared of fiddly recipes but this wasn’t as bad as I thought it would be. I adapted Donna Hays recipe as I know she likes to keep things as simple as she can. My crimping wasn’t perfect but that didn’t matter at all, as long…

Happy new year everyone, I hope you had a great festive season. So I’m at that stage where I fancy food that isn’t too rich. Couscous is always a nice light lunch and saganaki isn’t a rich cheese either it’s the greek version of halloumi. I like to roast vegetables like peppers and the sweet…

Venison Shank on a Cannellini Bean and Fennel Stew Recipe
So this must be the biggest shank I have ever seen it was whopping 775g it was more like a shoulder joint! I like lamb shanks but venison shanks are something else they have amazing flavour and are so lean so you get much more meat and no fat. This means it stops the stew…

Herb Roasted Rib of Veal with Red Wine Gravy Recipe
I love veal, the ethos of eating it really pulls at my heart strings as I hate animals dying for no reason. Veal is a by-product of dairy farms. Instead of the bulls being shot at birth and having no use they get to live for 6 months and can be used to feed your…
