Chinese Leftover Chicken, Sweetcorn, Egg and Noodle Soup

Very Simple Pea and Mint Dip

What else screams british summer apart from Pimms? Peas and mint! I made some black pudding Bon Bon’s (recipe to follow) and needed a really light dip to go with them. I didn’t have much in the kitchen but I did have peas in the freezer and mint in the garden. This was so easy…

Miso Tan Tan Ramen with Black Bean Pork
