Leftover Roast Lamb Stew

Homemade Tomato Salsa
I didn’t realise how making my own salsa would taste so much better than the shop bought varieties and of course there isn’t any nasty preservatives or funky named substitutes in a homemade salsa. It is also so versatile you can add anything you want regarding the herbs and spices. This is perfect as a…

Delicious Herb and Mustard Crusted Roast Pork

Slow Cooked Pulled Lamb with Shallots, Garlic and Balsamic Vinegar
Roast lamb is my favourite roast ever particularly when really slow cooked. We usually make merguez lamb which is so delicious, tasty and juicy but I thought I would mix it up as I saw a similar recipe to this on a cooking show. I was not disappointed it tasted that good that I was…

Crayfish, Avocado and Pickled Cucumber Salad Recipe
You could use prawns for this recipe but I really like crayfish. This salad was really summery and refreshing with the mint mixed with the avocado and the lightly pickled cucumbers.
