Roasted Tomatoes Stuffed with Feta and Basil
I love stuffing vegetables, whether its peppers, courgettes and such like. When I was shopping there were these beautiful juicy tomatoes and I had some feta knocking around in the fridge so bought them. They were delicious. You get the sweetness from the tomato,saltiness from the feta and bite from the spring onion. Ingredients (serves…
Three Mushroom Soup with Parmesan Crisps
It’s that time of year again when the soups make an appearance. I don’t think there isn’t a soup that I don’t like. I opted for mushroom this time. I didn’t want to use cream so I used 3 different mushrooms instead. The flour worked perfectly as the thickener. I didn’t have any bread so…
Chicken Tagine with Dates and Honey
Chicken thighs work so well in tagines and curries. This was particularly nice as it tasted really opulent. It was lovely and sweet but also savoury from the spices. I enjoyed every mouthful. Ingredients (serves 2) Directions
Rose Harissa and Preserved Lemon Cod Tagine
Gosh this was yummy, but then I again smoked paprika is one of my addictions along with dried oregano! As its summer I thought fish would be a really nice lighter option though chicken would work really too. I make my own preserved lemons (hence the colour) they last for ages and ages. I think…
Homemade Easy Tikka Paste

This is a really nice fresh summery salad. I love frying the courgettes in the air fryer as it is so easy. I hadn’t tried orzo in a salad before and it worked really well. As it is smaller pasta it was really easy to stir through the herbs. This had a really meddetarian vibe…
Crustless Courgette, Cheese and Herb Quiche
I love making crustless quiches (its also a secret way to get eggs in my hubby!). You don’t need pastry and can literally chuck in anything you have knocking about. I used manouri cheese as that’s what I had but any cheese with work, feta, cheddar or even grated halloumi. I think it does need…
Miso and Tamarind Slow Roasted Aubergine
I think slow roasting an aubergine is the best way to cook them as it makes the flesh so juicy and tender. They can also take on flavours really well so and spices really whether it’s Middle Eastern, Indian. Mediterranean etc. I went Asia this time with tangy miso and tamarind all sweetened up with…
Coriander Prawns, Kimchi and Edamame Salad Bowl with Gochujang Dressing
I’m trying to get into eating more fermented foods as they are so good for your gut. I really like the flavours of kimchi. As it’s Korean I wanted to stick to that theme and I love a Buddha bowl. The dressing worked perfectly, the gochujang dressing adds a kick and really uplifts the salad….
Sweet Potato, Chickpea and Spinach Curry
