Smokey Roasted Aubergine Dip Recipe
If you saw my previous post I had made the middle eastern bread. All it needed now was some dips to go with it. I love the flavour of roasted aubergine, I have tried baba ganoush before, this dip is a bit more simple in flavour but it goes so well with freshly baked light…
Middle Eastern Maneesh Bread Recipe
So I can make basic bread recipes but I am no expert. My husband bought me Paul Hollywood’s bread book on kindle and I thought I would have a go at different one and try to challenge myself. This turned out so well, it was well risen, airy inside and soft in the middle. The…
Sweet and Spicy Homemade Chicken Katsu Curry Recipe
In a well-known chain of asian restaurants I always order the vegetable version of this and wanted to try it home. OMG this was so much better. I combined 3 recipes I found online taking all the best bits to create this beautiful version. It is sweet from the carrots and onion, tangy from the…

I was in the supermarket and the fish counter had this lovely piece of tuna reduced to £3! When I eat sushi I love the sesame encrusted tuna so thought I would have a go at it myself. It was so delicious and the dipping sauce had all the flavours I love sweet, salty, zingy…

Baked Stuffed Tomatoes with a Parmesan Crumb Recipe
I have wanted to try baked tomatoes for ages. I did stuffed peppers a while back and they turned out good. As the summer is starting to wind down I really wanted to have a go. In my local grocers they had some large tomatoes in stock, perfect I thought. The chorizo works so well…
Sticky Miso and Lime Butter Cod Fillets Recipe
So for fish Friday this week I am posting this amazing cod recipe. Miso has been a newish ingredient to me that I absolutely love. It is sweet and salty and has a great paste texture. It worked so well with the juicy cod. The butter mixture was that good that I had a dollop…

Grilled Sausage and Baked Fig Salad with a Pomegranate and Cumin Dressing Recipe
I am really into sausage’s in our salad’s at the moment. They are cheap, full of flavour and easy to cook. We had sausage and mash for dinner and cooked the whole pack of 6 giving me 2 leftover for this. The fig and sausage work so well together, you also get a nice sweet…

Roasted Butternut Squash, Spinach, Goats Cheese and Red Onion Pie Recipe
I saw this recipe on BBC good food and really wanted to have a go. I didn’t have a raised pie dish so only did one layer but it is still really impressive when you cut into it. I also didn’t make my own pastry either. Cumin is one of my favourite spices and I…
Red Mullet on a Red Pepper, Tomato, Olive and Basil Stew Recipe
This dinner is healthy, simple but really tasty. I think red mullet is an under rated fish, it’s funny because I don’t like the grey variety as they taste a bit muddy. To keep it on our 5:2 diet we served the fish with a stew and alongside whole wheat couscous. The flavours are really…
Hot Smoked Salmon with a Mango and Avocado Salsa and a Tamarind and Mango Dressing Recipe
I always think fruit and fish do work well together and mangoes can really take on flavour. I do have to share a kitchen gadget I have a mango de stoner and it was of the best things I have ever bought. The dressing was an accident as I bought a 2 pack of mangoes…
Crispy Duck Breast with a Cider, Mustard and Orange Sauce Recipe
Nothing beats a crispy skin duck breast. We usually have five spice duck breast and fancied something different. The classic combination or duck and orange works well in this dish with added flavour of mustard and cider.
