This is such a good autumn and winter side dish I use instead of coleslaw this time of year. I had with my venison burgers not that long ago. You can use it as a side with most things and it’s great in tacos. Ingredients Directions
Leftover Chicken and Chickpea Indian Curry
I love getting creative with leftovers. This time I went down the Indian curry route. It was delicious with all the spices. The chicken stayed nice and moist and the chickpeas bulked it out nicely. Ingredients Directions
Venison and Black Pudding Burgers
I love venison and I love black pudding so this burger was born. As venison is so lean it needs some kind of fat added to it so I used the spiced black pudding. Juniper is a match made in heaven for venison it reminds me of a fragrant pepper. I also added extra pepper…
Black Bean Duck, Cabbage and Pepper Stir fry
Stir fry’s are so good for a really quick dinner and using up bits of veg in the fridge. I don’t think the sauce is set in stone either. I think you just need a base then you can taste and adjust to your liking. Ingredients Directions
Hen of the Woods Mushroom Soup
So many variates of mushrooms are now available to everyone, whether you get them from a farm shop or order them online. I was recently back home in Devon and there is a farm shop that specialises in growing mushrooms. It’s great as where they grow them they have windows and information about them so…
Smoked Salmon and Burrata on Toast with Capers
Oh yes creamy burrata indulgent salmon and lots of pepper. This is such a yummy brunch lunch or light dinner. It would also be perfect for Christmas breakfast. The burrata takes it up a notch along with the watercress and salty capers. Ingredients (serves 2) Directions
Pork Chops with a Rosemary, Orange and Mustard Sauce
Pork chops are such a good midweek dinner. The 3 flavours of the sauce work so well together and you can serve it with so many different sides. I chose polenta for this dinner. It was so comforting I really am a Sauce addict I always do the recipe for 4 people even though it’s…
Roasted Squash and Pasta Salad with Sage and Blue Cheese Pesto
This is a great combination of flavours so apt for this time of year. It is also easy to make as I cooked the squash in my air fryer so saved money as it uses so much less electricity than the oven, we all are feeling the pinch at the moment with the recession around…
Chicken Laab Lettuce Wraps
This dish takes me back to Thailand every time I make it. I know exactly where I was, it was in paradise park farm. They had quite birds that you could feed and few other animals.The pool which we ended up using a few times is amazing it’s an infinity pool up in the hills…
Leftover Roast Lamb Stew
I really like leftover lamb as it has loads of flavour and can be turned into anything like a shepherd’s pie right through to a spicy curry. This one was nice and easy and we had a dinner and another one is in the freezer. I really like to add marmite to dark stews in…
Tenderising Pork Brine
This is the equivalent to buttermilk chicken. I always think pork chops can be a little bit stringy and slightly chewy. I don’t like eating pork pink so this is such a good way to keep the pork nice and moist without worrying about cooking it too much. You can put any aromatics in it….
Smoked Salmon Pasta with a Caper, Lemon and Parsley Sauce
This is such a great dinner when your tired and just want something tasty and quick. The sauce is great and skinny as you don’t use milk or cream. The flavours are classic, I am so partial to a bit of 80’s parsley sauce and just spruced it up. Ingredients Directions
Cumin Beetroot and Lentil Salad with a Harissa and Orange Dressing
Lightly spiced beetroot on earthy lentils all topped off with a zingy and spicy fragrant dressing. I love summer but I also love this time of year with comforting food and warming spices. This is a yummy Middle Eastern flavoured salad all the flavours are already married together and are well tested and enjoyed. Ingredients…
Curried Parsnip Soup with Parsnip Crisps
Soup glorious soup. So today it is raining very heavily and I had my flu jab yesterday so I’m feeling a bit achey. To make everything better I made myself a delicious bowl of spicy comforting soup. Parsnips make any soup seem really creamy, silky and smooth. The spices in this are delicious, so warming…
Cottage Pie with a Cauliflower Mash Topping
As a child cottage pie was my favourite dinner apart from roast lamb. I wanted to spruce it up a bit so I added some wild mushrooms, fresh herbs and marmite. As cauliflower is in season now I decided to have a go at making mash, it worked a treat I actually preferred it on…
