This recipe is amazing. I’ve made my own corned beef before but this is much better not to sound weird but you can taste the beef so much better as it doesn’t cook in the spices it is only brined in them so they are a delicate background flavour. it seems a long recipe but…

Black Bean Salsa with Ham and Parmesan Corn on the Cob
I love Mexican bean salads, it’s a good way to use up spring onion tops and any herbs you have. I have tried to just grill corn on cob but it’s never tender enough so I use chef mic to tenderise them first. I recently watched a food myth programme and they tested steaming veg,…
Prosciutto Wrapped Oozy Saganaki on a Broad Bean and Preserved Lemon Salad
I love saganaki as it is as oozy as mozzarella but has so much more flavour. I thought I’d pimp up by wrapping it in prosciutto. It goes well with the fresh, sweet and zingy salad. If your looking for saganaki I got mine from Waitrose and it was in the halloumi and feta area….

Ham, Black Eyed Bean and Marinated Tomato Salad

Juicy Ginger Beer Glazed Gammon Recipe
This was truly the best ham I ever eaten. It was so moist and the sticky glaze was delicious. I don’t like ingredients in coca cola but understand it’s tenderising quality so I wanted to find a more natural alternative and came across rosalilium’s recipe which used ginger beer. I love Ginger so thought what…
