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…

Tasty Left Over Roast Lamb Hotpot Recipe

Roasted Squash and Swede Soup with Bacon Bit’s and Parmesan Crouton’s Recipe
This time of year is great for soups and I love roasting off vegetables to make them sweeter and deepen their flavour. Roasting the squash and swede together adds a really nice sweetness to the soup.

Left Over Chicken, Slaw and Coriander Rice Paper Rolls with a Duo of Dipping Sauces Recipe
