So I had some potatoes I didn’t use on Sunday and I fancied something light for dinner. These fishcakes worked a treat. I love smoked haddock and thought I would use it in these fishcakes. Making your own tartar sauce is great as you can adjust it to your own taste. I love capers and…

Marinated Seared Steak on a Pea, Sweetcorn and Herb Buckwheat Noodle Salad with a Black Bean Dressing
I love Asian salads and recently discovered fermented chilli black beans. They are so yummy, when I went to the Chinese supermarket I noticed them amongst all the other jars of sauces and Asian ingredients. When I go next time I am going to spend more time looking at all the jars to see if…
Gammon Steaks with Leek and Celeriac Mash and Apple Sauce
When we had a buy up from the Devon butcher he had some delicious gammon steaks that I couldn’t resist. I forgot how much I like gammon steaks and haven’t had them for years. They are such a pub classic that I didn’t want to go down the egg and chip route so I searched…
Zaalouk with Crispy Halloumi and Olives
I wanted to try a different recipe other than baba ganoush with charred aubergine. I found this recipe on the olive magazine website. It has all those middle eastern flavours I love, smokiness from the spices and aubergine, sweetness from the tomatoes and freshness from the coriander and lemon. I used a spoon to pile…
Leftover Sausage and Sun Dried Tomato Salad with Parmesan Croutons and a Brown Sauce Dressing
So we had a couple of sausages leftover from dinner one night and a stub of sourdough so I thought I would make a salad. It worked really well and had a really comforting flavour. The crunch from the croutons really finish off. It kind of tastes like a deconstructed breakfast. I really loved the…
Saganaki and Tomato Salad with Pickled Courgette’s and Oregano
I came across saganaki when buying halloumi in the supermarket. I bought a pack and looked up how to cook it, I was not disappointed. If I had to describe it I would say it is a cross between mozzarella and halloumi. Whereas halloumi goes slightly soft in the center saganaki actually goes gooey and…
Wild Duck Breast with Orange Braised Chicory and a Spiced Sauce
I am so into the wild duck at the moment, it is full of flavour and so tender. I love five spice duck so thought I would make a spiced sauce to go with it, my gosh it was tasty. It went so well with the orangey soft braised chicory. Each flavour works in harmony…
Roasted Squash and Fennel Salad with Blue Cheese and an Almond and Lemon Dressing
I love roasting squash and fennel as it really brings out their sweet notes. I leave the skin on my butternut squash to add in extra fibre and nutrients. The blue cheese adds a nice acidity and goes well with the sweet squash flesh. The dressing is nice and creamy, the preserved lemon really packs…
Quick and Healthy Asian Baked Gurnard with Steamed Baby Pak Choi
After a long weekend in Devon where we ate lots of cream and carbs we are back on the health kick. I love gurnard as it is a cheap fish and can be really meaty which makes it more filling. Baking fish en papillote works so well with asian flavours and the flavour of the…
Roasted Carrot, Feta and Orange Salad with a Tahini Dressing
I adore carrots this time of year and roasting them is one of my favourite things. Something magical happens when carrots and cumin combine their flavours. The fresh citrus flavour from the orange and coolness from the tahini makes this salad really special. The textures are really nice too and the caramelisation on the carrots…
Aromatic, Fresh and Tasty Chicken Pho Broth
This dish is so comforting, it is full of flavour and the fresh lime, herbs and chilli really pack a punch. You can add any greens to this I just happened to have spinach in the fridge, it is the same with the herbs you could use mint or even parsley. I tend to make…
Corned Beef, Griddled Chicory and Walnut Salad with a Pommegranate Molasses Dressing
I love proper corned beef, the spices really penetrate the meat and it also just melts in your mouth. The Chicory or endives do need a sprinkle a sugar and caramelisation as the leaves are so bitter. The walnuts add a nice crunch and you get a citrusy sweet flavour from the pomegranate molasses. Ingredients…
Fragrantly Spiced Lamb and Sweet Potato Curry
This curry is full of flavour and is really comforting, the smells you get from the kitchen are so yummy and make it really satisfying to eat. It has a lovely spice flavour and a hint of heat but it doesn’t blow your head off. Lamb takes on spices really well and the potato makes…
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…
