This ham gave us 2 lunches, a dinner and pizza topping! When you divide the price by four it works out really reasonable. There is something special about making your own ham and we bought this for Easter and have only just got round to using it. This is based on Gordon Ramsay’s Ham in…
Tuna and Tomato Salad Recipe
This is a very quick recipe and doesn’t require you to make a dressing as the olive oil coats and combines the tuna mixture. I am really enjoying our health kick at the moment and Paulie has lost 1/2 stone already just by cutting right down on carbs, fat and sugar intake! The tomatoes are…

Roasted Eggplant, Feta and Rocket Salad with a Lemon and Basil Vinaigrette Recipe
After a gloriously sunny weekend and a holiday coming up we are on our healthy mid-week kick again. I love feta as it is a low fat cheese but also has loads of flavour. The feta adds lovely creamy and salty notes to a salad. The roasted aubergine or eggplant was a revelation, I was…

Baked Spicy Cauliflower and Pea Samosa’s with a Yoghurt Mint Dip Recipe
I was a little scared about trying to make my own samosa’s as they look so complicated and I still believe there is an art in the folding and how much filling to use. I was really proud of how mine turned out, not perfect but still a triangle shape, nice and crispy on the…
Weald Smokery Venison with a Home Pickled Fennel and Tomato Salad
Sometimes simple is best! If you fancy having a go at pickling vegetables at home this is bar far the best I have tried so far. The fennel releases it’s beautiful aniseed flavour and the orange zest, star anise and pickling liquid really makes it stand out, I could probably eat a of bowl of…
Homemade Lemon and Coriander Crab Cakes Recipe
I have been wanting to try and make these for ages, I keep seeing tinned crab in Waitrose and finally bought a tin and had a go. We were not disappointed, homemade crab cakes are so much lighter and flavoursome as you can add ingredients to your own taste and they were so easy to…
Feta, Avocado and Rocket Salad with Lemon Dressing Recipe
Another tasty salad for lunch today from what we had the fridge. I love the saltiness of the feta, the creaminess of the avocado and the sharp hit of the lemon they all taste good in one bite. This took me 10 minutes to make and feta keeps in the fridge for ages so this…

Halloumi, Rocket and Pesto Butter Bean Salad Recipe
If you have read any of my previous post’s you will know that I made a batch of wild garlic pesto (recipe). Paulie and I have been finding ways to incorporate into our meals such as spreading it on cod with breadcrumbs (recipe), adding it to potato to make pesto gnocchi (recipe) or just having…

Bali and Asia is a special place for Paulie and I. We fell in love with Bali a few years ago and ended up getting married there last year as we loved the country, people, culture and food. I love their fresh salads which are salty, sour , spicy and sweet. Papaya and mango are…

Do you love flavour and fed up of the same old brisket recipe and what to try something new? Try this! We haven’t used a dry rub as a sealant on a brisket before, we usually seal the meat first in a pan before pot roasting so this was new for us. I also haven’t…
