I saw a programme a few years a go which showed you how to flavour pasta. One of the recipe’s was for window pane pasta. You basically make you pasta as normal then once you have rolled out the strips you place herbs on them cover with more pasta and then put it through the…

Easy White Bloomer Bread Recipe
This was my first bloomer attempt and it worked really well. Paulie has to have an op this week and isn’t allowed to eat any fiber so I needed to make a white loaf. This is from Paul Hollywood’s Bread book, it tastes delicious and I was suprised how easy it was. If your new…
Ultimate Whole Wheat Lasagna Recipe
I love ragu and particularly love it being used in a lasagna. This is such a comforting dish and we tend to have t for dinner for 2 nights running as it so nice. I also find making my own pasta really satisfying and it isn’t hard to make either, it tastes so much better…
Halloumi Salad with Walnut Pesto Soya Beans and Tomatoes Recipe
Even though pesto salad is usually associated with summer I think it can be comforting in the winter too as it has big bold flavour’s. I prefer using walnuts as sometimes pine nuts give a metallic taste in your mouth and you have to toast them first, walnuts can be just chucked in the food…
Panko Crab Cakes, Rocket Salad and an Anchovy and Caper Dressing Recipe
This is a great store cupboard lunch or light dinner. I have been wanting to make an anchovy dressing for ages, the salad tasted like a lighter more flavoursome Caesar salad. Tinned crab is a really easy and cost effective way of having crab cakes I think it is probably cheaper than tuna now. I…
Sticky and Sweet Glazed Baked Ham with Pineapple Salsa Recipe
This is everything a ham should be, sticky, sweet, juicy and tender. The freshness from the salsa cuts through the sweetness and keeps the pineapple theme running throughout the whole dish. We are lucky as we have an excellent butcher and we ordered 2 smoked gammons and were not disappointed. Sometimes old school joints taste…
Christmas Prep – Spiced Pickled Pears for Cheese and Cold Meats Recipe
So we are getting to that time of year, Christmas. I love Christmas food hot and cold. I think the cold meats and cheeses are probably my favourite part though. There is nothing better than a platter of homemade ham, cold turkey, local cheese and lots of tasty accompaniments, like these pickled pears. They are…
Healthy Whole Wheat Rolls Recipe
I love the rolls and butter you get in restaurants when you first sit down. There is something special about a warm roll and cold real butter, it is so simple yet so satisfying. These rolls taste just like the restaurant rolls but they have a massive bonus they are made with whole wheat flour….
Homemade Sun Dried Tomato Whole Wheat Gnocchi, Broccoli and Cheese Skinny Bake Recipe
As I’m still trying to move away from white processed flour I thought I would have a go at whole wheat gnocchi particularly as the pasta turned out so well. As the whole wheat does have a flavour I needed something strong to go with it, I love sun dried tomato’s so I made a…
West Country Chicken Casserole Recipe
This is a perfect autumn dish as it is a light casserole. As I’m Devonian I love cider and it is great in one pot’s to create a light sauce, in the winter we tend to use red wine and beef for a more heartier option. I always think one pot dinner’s are really comforting…
Skinny Whole Wheat Carrot Cake Traybake Recipe
We had some carrots left over so I thought I would make a carrot cake. As it is mid-week I didn’t want a fattening version so I tweaked a recipe to my preferred ingredients and the result was a delicious moist and creamy carrot cake you wouldn’t know there was no butter or full fat…
Raspberry and White Chocolate Loaf Recipe
With Raspberry and blackberry season finishing why not have one last treat. This cake is easy to make but has loads of flavour. We bought some yellow and red raspberries from our local farm shop and I wanted to do them justice. Raspberries can be quite tart sometimes so the white chocolate add a lovely…
Foraged Blackberry Vinegar Recipe
Last weekend we picked a load of blackberries on our walk back from the beach. My flavoured oils have been so good (recipe’s here) that I thought I would have a go at my own vinegar’s as I like them in salad’s. After doing some research I now realise this can be used in sweet…
Spauly’s Ultimate Sausage Roll Recipe
This recipe was made up by myself and Paulie. We have an amazing butcher called Roger from Busters Butchers, he supplied us with some amazing sausage meat and we were going out for the day so I thought I would make some ‘posh’ sausage rolls using parma ham. For lunch the day before we were…

As I’m from Torquay in Devon fudge is very close to my heart along with cream teas! I know everyone who enjoys cooking and baking will have recipes they make and you ask yourself why on earth haven’t I made this before. This is one of those recipes and this fudge is stunning, me and…
