I love my air fryer, I chuck most things in it. It saves electricity and needs minimal oil if any so it keeps it skinny too. I really love the even crisp and browning you get from kale crisps to skewers like this. These are classic Mediterranean flavours they remind me of holidays in the…

Roasted Summer Vegetable and Chorizo Couscous with Cumin and Honey
I love roasted vegetables particularly in the summer when things like tomatoes, courgettes and peppers are at their best. I used baby courgettes in this recipe as they were reduced in the supermarket, they were delicious! Tomatoes pair so well together and of course they are in season together. This was simple but totally delicious!…
Air fryer Roasted Vegetable and Chorizo Moroccan Couscous
I love my air fryer, it is so versatile. It is also so healthy and I just chucked in the courgettes and peppers left them alone and they came out lovely and charred. Fruit with savoury food can sometimes be a bit like marmite, you either like it or hate it. This would make a…
Moroccan Ras El Hanout Chorizo and Chickpea Salad
I had some ras el hanout in the back of the cupboard and thought I better use it for something. As it’s Middle Eastern chickpeas came to mind and I thought I’d do a tasty salad. This salad was amazing! The spicy chorizo, warming spices and zingy preserved lemon. I am also addicted to semi…
Chorizo on Middle Eastern Pomegranate Molasses Haricot Beans
I love Middle Eastern flavours. I was tidying up my store cupboard and at the back was half a bottle of pomegranate molasses, I was determined to use it in something so this salad was born. My friend is Israeli and she brought me back some Zaatar that her family had made. It’s delicious and…
Chorizo and Chickpea Salad with a Lemon and Dill Dressing
This is such a versatile salad and the bonus is its healthy, colourful and very tasty. The dill and lemon together are so fresh, it works so well with the chickpeas and chorizo. I have learnt a tip with chickpeas, once drained I gave the a good rub and then pick off as many skins…
Griddled Chorizo on a Pickled Fennel, Lentil and Tomato Salad
When I was out to lunch recently I had a dish which came with quick pickled cucumber and courgette salad, it was so delicious. I did this version using fennel as it holds up well to flavouring and I knew it wouldn’t get too soft. The pickling liquid isn’t too overpowering at all it actually…
Roasted Cauliflower, Chorizo and Currant Salad with an Orange and Za’atar Dressing and Cobnuts
The roasted cauliflower, spicy chorizo and sweet orange flavours work so well in this salad. Cauliflower is so versatile and there are lots of different ways of using it. Roasting it is very comforting and adds a whole new flavour and texture. Soaking the currants in orange juice adds a really nice flavour. The cobnuts…
Pot Roast Pheasant with Butter Beans and Chorizo
I love summer and I’m sad to see it go but on the other hand the produce this time of year is amazing. This one pot is so comforting and healthy. I find roasted pheasant a bit dry so pot roasting it keeps it really moist. The butter beans are so tasty and the chorizo…
End of Summer Chicken, Chorizo, Courgette and Tomato One Pot
We have been so lucky with our late summer vegetables this year. The tomatoes aren’t as sweet as the height of summer so they work really well being cooked. This is a light tasty one pot dinner using up the last bits of summer vegetables. The chorizo adds a really nice smokiness and meaty flavour….
Sweet Potato, Chorizo and Feta Frittata
I love frittata as you can really chuck anything into it and it doesn’t need many ingredients. It’s a bit more substantial and fluffier than an omelette. I decided to go for Mediterranean flavours that work really well together. You get sweetness from the potato, saltiness from the feta and a spicy kick from the…
Cooked Chorizo on a Bulgar Wheat Salad Loaded with Roasted Courgettes and Tomatoes
So we are well into spring (sort of) so all the British tomatoes and courgettes are starting to appear. I love casseroles and roasted root vegetables salads but I am ready for some lighter lunches and dinners. I really like bulgar wheat but unless you pack it with flavours it can be a bit bland….
Prawn, Chorizo and Avocado Salad with Crispy Capers and Eggless Lime and Chilli Mayo
Oh my this salad was so yummy. I enjoyed every mouthful the sweet prawns with the spicy chorizo and cooling avocado, then you get the peppery watercress and crispy salty capers, all finished off with a zingy mayo. I used delicious prawns from greenland, they have so much flavour and sweetness. I also used a…

So my hubby isn’t keen on radish but I really like them so to tempt him into eating them I decided to roast them as he loves roasted vegetables. The result was so yummy it made them really sweet and that went so well with smoky chorizo. The chickpeas added great texture and the dressing…
Amazing Octopus with Chorizo, Potatoes, Lemon and Capers Recipe
Oh my where do I begin with this amazing recipe. We often eat and really enjoy octopus out in tapas restaurants and abroad. So I was at the fishmongers and there were these 2 octopus and I couldn’t resist. I read if you freeze them it helps with the tenderising process so that’s what I…
