I love tomatoes this time of year as they are so sweet and juicy. I learnt a tip while watching Raymond blanc that if you keep the tomatoes at room temperature and salt them and herbs and leave them for at least 30 minutes I don’t mind the seeds but you can always drain them…

Healthier Chinese Lemon Chicken
I am trying to keep things healthy as I’m not moving around as much as I’m working from home. I didn’t miss the breadcrumbs at all in this recipe in fact it tasted better. My hubby doesn’t like eggs that much but I can get them down him in egg fried rice, I think it…
Crispy Vine Leaves on Lemon Hummus with Zaatar and Tapenade
Sometimes I find that vine leaves can be a bit soggy and slimy but I just love the flavours so I thought I’d try crisping them up my first attempt was on the BBQ which were yummy but today I put them in the air fryer and they were even better I think the oven…
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…
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…
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…
Prawn Katsu Curry
I have wanted to do this dish for ages and finally got round to it. I love prawn curry and I love katsu curry thanks to that well know restaurant 😜 so I decided to put the 2 together. Gosh it was nice and very moorish. Everything just went together perfectly. There is abit of…
Baked Miso Cabbage on Jerusalem Artichoke Puree and 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…
Pork Chops, Olive Tapenade Butter Bean Mash and a Red Pepper, Saffron and Paprika Gravy
What can I say yum, yum and yum. This was an experiment and it worked perfectly. I have wanted to try butter bean mash for ages and I thought it could be a bit bland so I added a dollop of tapenade it was delicious. Next I had to think about a sauce or gravy…
Fragrant Fridge Pickled Courgettes
All the great spring produce is starting to be available and pickling them is such a nice way to have them to hand. I love the large sliced dill pickles but they are so expensive now. As courgettes are cheap and always in abundance they are a brilliant alternative. I love the subtle flavours from…
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…
Delicious Herb and Mustard Crusted Roast Pork
I got this joint reduced and would normally do a slow pulled pork recipe in the slow cooker but as it was cheap I decided to do a simple roast. It was amazing I was naughty and did Yorkshire pudding with it which made it even more scrumptious. The pork was so juicy but retained…
Hoisin Tempeh with an Asian Jersey Royal Potato Salad Recipe
As you can see from my recent blog posts I’m really throwing myself into spring produce this year and making the most of produce from each season. This one is jersey royals. I cooked the whole pack, had some warm with a simple piece of fish and I had some leftover so fancied doing something…
