Sometimes its nice to keep some salads simple. This is great salad for that. It makes such a good lunchbox salad too. I cooked my halloumi in the air fryer. Which made this even simpler. I used my own pesto which I freeze in ice cube trays but any jarred pesto would work too. Just…

Lentil, Sweetcorn and Bean Chilli
Ive been wanting to make a bean chilli for ages. I don’t think I would ever go back to a meat again! This was absolutely delicious. The best thing is it is all store cupboard ingredients so you can chuck in what you have. I served mine with soft taco’s, cheese and guacamole. It would…
Smoked Salmon, Preserved Lemon and Caper Salad
This salad is delicious, Smokey buttery salmon, salty capers and zingy preserved lemon. I used my pickled radish for the sweetness but to be fair gherkins or cornichons would work just as well. I love preserved lemons I like to keep a jar on the go as they take 4 weeks to-preserve. It is really…
Caramalised Basil Pork Lettuce Wraps (Laab)
I love this dish and I have very fond memories of eating it in Thailand. I also use chicken mince. The original laab doesn’t caramalise the pork as much as I do but I think it adds depth of flavour and a fantastic texture. The shallots are only slightly cooked so you still get a…
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
Easy Pate Stuffed Mushrooms
Omg I don’t know why I haven’t tried this before it is delicious and so easy to make. I had some mushrooms and some pate going out of date in the fridge. I decided to put the two together. I always have breadcrumbs in the freezer that I make from the ends and stale bits…
Air Fryer Zaatar Courgette and Ham Salad
I love all the produce you get in the summer. I think if you eat something when it is actually in season tastes so much better. I really love courgettes as they are so versatile and take on flavours really well. This zaatar works perfectly and I always use red pepper flakes rather than chilli…
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…
One Pot Chicken, Potato and Spinach in an Indian Tikka Almond Sauce
Wow this was a show stopper! I managed to pick up a reduced small chicken in the supermarket and thought I need to do a one pot so the chicken is moist. I chose to go down the Indian route. I made my own tikka paste and it was a game changer though I think…
Homemade Easy Tikka Paste
Omg I could spread this on toast and eat it! I wish I had made this years ago, it is delicious and has such a different depth of flavour and of course no preservatives like you get in a jar. I learnt a tip from a famous chef regarding ginger, he explained that there is…
Feta Mint and Potato Salad with a Herb Mustard Dressing
As it is only me and paulie in the house (apart from 2 fur babies) if we have new potatoes for dinner we don’t eat a whole bag. I cook all of them and use them in salads. This salad was yummy and really summery. I love feta and mint together, the flavours work so…
Homemade Crispy Chilli Beef
So I love a good Chinese takeaway and I think crispy chillibeef along with char siu pork are my favorites. I decided to make my own and it was so delicious much better than the take away and I knew what exactly was in the sauce. As I served it straight away it was also…
Prawn Cocktail Salad
I don’t think there is anything better than this classic retro dish. It reminds me of my Sunday lunch at my nans. I oddly also had a really good one when I was india. I also think it has to be a crunchy lettuce can of like a Caesar salad. Ingredients (serves 2) Directions
Gammon Steaks with a Warm Potato and Broccoli Salad
I always think gammon is seen as a really old fashioned ingredient. It does remind me of my childhood particularly my nan. This potato salad is going to be such a go to it was so yummy and really simple to make. It has everything, its got a bit of crunch from the gherkins and…
Bacon and Sun Blushed Tomatoes on a Rocket, Parsley and Chive Salad
I am really enjoying chives in everything at the moment but particulary in salads. My other addidction this summer are sun blushed tomatoes, they are so delicious and juicy. A certain 4 lettered blue and yellow german supermarket sell the best ones in my opinion in their deli area. Air fryer bacon is also the…
