This was my veggie dinner this week and it was delicious. I usually make cauliflower cheese but I’m going on holiday in a couple of weeks so needed something skinnier. Dishes like this make you realise that veggie dishes aren’t bland they are yummy and really flavoursome. It was nice and easy to make too…

Marinated Tempeh Balinese Salad Bowl with a Tamarind Dressing
The first time I ever tried tempeh was in a little off road restaurant in Bali while we driving to the other end of the island. I hadn’t even heard of it before but the waitress recommended it to us. I was hooked. It is just a flavour sponge, you can marinade it any of…
Squash Gnocchi with Black Pudding, Mushroom and Kale
Sometimes you just fancy a quick one pan dinner that is still really tasty. This is just that. These were ingredients I had knocking about in the fridge from a fry up and salad. They all worked really well together and it was delicious. Instead of black pudding you could use sausage as black pudding…
Crab and Avocado Toasts
So we took the dogs to the coast for their walkies and every time we go down we treat ourselves to a fresh crab as I love them so much. This was our brunch the next day it was so delicious. I really like a mixture of brown and white meat as I think it…
Cumin, Carrot, Ginger and Cashew Nut Soup
It’s really cold here at the moment so I fancied something warming and comforting. I opted for this soup. I didn’t have a potato or cream and I had read in a food article that you can use cashew nuts as an alternative thickener. I wish I had tried this before the nuts gave it…
Asian Salt and Vinegar Kale Crisps (Miso and Rice Wine Vinegar)
I love Kale chips or crisps. I chuck mine in the air fryer so they are quick and simple. Apart from ready salted, salt and vinegar is my favourite flavour. I was adding these to an Asian salad so decided to do Asian salt and vinegar. I used the miso for my salt and the…
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…
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
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….
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…
Herby Sausage Pizza
So I’m trying to empty the freezer and had some sausage meat and black pudding hanging around. I love black pudding and decided it would be nice on a pizza, you get pepperoni right, this is just our version. It was so yummy I did add some extra oregano as I have recently been to…
Tuna and Sweetcorn Potato Skins
I love jacket potato as you can literally put anything on them. I love a certain brand of baked beans with cheese on top. (If they are good enough for our queen consort Camilla, they are good enough for me 😉) My hubby Paulie doesn’t like beans so I had to try something else. Tuna,…
Smoked Trout on an Edamame Bean Salad topped with a Preserved Lemon and Caper Salsa
I love smoked trout it’s abit more delicate than smoked salmon and most supermarkets stock it. I buy shelled edamame or soya beans already prepared and frozen so you can just grab a handful and rinse them under some warm water to defrost. I could eat capers with anything as the give a punch of…
Chickpeas, Couscous and Spinach
Meatless Monday today. As we are more informed these days about meat I try to have at least one vegetarian and fish meal a week (doesn’t always happen) but I’ve managed it today. Chickpeas are such a good staple and thankfully nice and filling a great alternative to potatoes. They also carry on flavours so…
