I love tacos and P treated me to some taco holders, which I must say are brilliant. I’ve never made my own tortilla before but they turned out really good and were easier than I thought. At the moment asparagus is bang in season so I’m using them in lots of different ways, this slaw…

Lemon and Pepper Monkfish Medallions with a Hot Lemon Vinaigrette
If you fancy trying a non-fishy fish (I know that sounds crazy) and want to wow guests with something different try this recipe. Monkfish is more meaty and chunky, it is a bit like chicken, it is tasty and sweet but is firm enough to take on spices, you can even use it for a…
Queen Elizabeth’s Coronation Chicken and Jersey Royals
So I couldn’t make anything more apt for Queen Elizabeth’s Jubilee celebration it was first made up for her coronation so I guess it’s truly hers there have been variations going as far back as George V but this version is my favourite . God bless the queen and Britain. Ingredients 2 chicken breasts 300…
Courgette, Pea and Goats Cheese Fritters with a Courgette Zoodle Salad and Avocado and Pistachio Cream
This is truly a courgette and pea celebration using different flavour combinations and textures. The two green goddesses taste so summery, fresh, light and good together. I wasn’t sure about putting the salad and the fritters together buy oh my it worked wonderfully, and to make it even more scrumptious you have the avocado and…
Goat’s Cheese Stuffed Chicken Breast Wrapped in Parma Ham on Courgettes and Tomatoes
This is a brilliant one dish dinner and is easy to prepare. It really makes use of seasonal produce and the juices ooze over the courgettes and tomatoes making them totally delicious. It’s also great for when you have guests over too as it looks after itself and it’s healthy, so you can make a…
Braised Beetroot Lentils with Pan Fried Pheasant Breasts and Goats Cheese
I love the earthy notes of beetroot and lentils. This recipe gives the lentils a lovely colour and the pheasant works beautifully with those earthy notes and the goats cheese adds a lovely creamy element. I’m coming to the end of my game stash in the freezer so I need to get these recipes on…
Florentine Style Baked Cod
This is quite an old school recipe but I had it in Egypt of all places and I forgot how nice it was. I used cod in my recipe but any meaty fish will be fine. I put a spin on it by using parsley sauce, I made a batch as I had a bag…
Bacon, Jersey Royal and Rocket Salad with a Balsamic Dressing
Sometimes it’s nice to have a simple lunch and this salad does just that. It also uses up some leftover potatoes or you can just leave them out. It has a breakfast kinda vibe. I did my bacon and croutons in the air fryer (love my air fryer) but you can use the oven too….
Baked Miso Cabbage on Jerusalem Artichoke Puree with a Tahini Herb Dressing
I get cabbage in my weekly veg box and I fancied doing something different with it this week. I have roasted cauliflower steaks before so I thought I’d give cabbage a go for a vegetarian meal it was delicious, everything went so well together and the layers of flavours were delicious. I hate waste so…
Griddled Chorizo on a Pickled Fennel, Lentil and Tomato Salad
When I was out to lunch recently I had a dish which came with quick pickled cucumber and courgette salad, it was so delicious. I did this version using fennel as it holds up well to flavouring and I knew it wouldn’t get too soft. The pickling liquid isn’t too overpowering at all it actually…
Halloumi on a Green Salad of Shaved Asparagus, Avocado and Watercress topped with Homemade Fridge Pickles
This salad is so summery and seasonal. I normally fry the halloumi in a frying pan but for my photos I thought I would griddle it instead. As soon as I did I realised I would never pan fry it ever again. As the halloumi is slightly raised when cooking it completely removes the ‘squeak’…
Easy All in One Scallop and Asparagus Risotto
I love risotto but I hate the whole process of adding a ladel of stock at a time, this way is just as good as I tested both ways. I actually think this method tastes much better as the risotto has a better texture and it means it can now be a quick mid week…
Pancetta, Asparagus and Olive Tapenade Crispy Pizza Slice
So a certain international supermarket has Greek week and during this week they sell a large jar of olives which are nice and firm I’m not so keen on the jarred olives that have gone soft they also sell a really good quality thin crust ready pizza base that makes 2 decent sized pizzas, though…
Wild Garlic Pesto Tuna and Butter Bean Salad with Purple Sprouting Broccoli
Yep it’s another wild garlic pesto recipe from me. This time it’s a nice simple healthy salad. The butter beans and tuna work so well with the pesto. It’s also purple sprouting broccoli season and it’s so yummy raw and adds a lovely crunch. I think different textures in the salad makes it much more…
Hoisin Tempeh with an Asian Jersey Royal Potato Salad Recipe
