This recipe was show stopper, every mouthful was absolutely delicious. The brisket really takes on the spice blend flavours and I don’t think I have ever had brisket so succulent it just melts in your mouth. It was so tasty we simply had some new potatoes and eggless mustard mayo (recipe here )on the side….

Amazing Egg Free Mustard Mayo Recipe
I first saw this being made on an episode of Saturday Kitchen and have wanted to try it for ages. We had a bean salad where I had used a tin of cannellini beans so I reserved the liquid so I could give this a go. I was so impressed and I think it tastes…
Soya and Cannellini Bean Salad with Salami and Mint Recipe
Frozen Soya Beans are so handy to have to add to salads. Unlike broad beans you don’t have to worry about peeling off the shells. We also always keep tinned pulses in the cupboard as well. The mint was from our garden and the salami was left overs too. This salad is crunchy fresh and…
Beef, Broccoli and Spinach Stir Fry with a Honey and Pepper Sauce Recipe
For a fantastic quick, easy and healthy one pan dinner, try this stir fried beef. We love to use sirloin as our stir fry cut of beef and always tenderise in a sauce or cornflour before cooking for at least 20 minutes. The result is beautiful, succulent, juicy meat. The sauce is quite a popular…
Rosemary and Parmesan Croutons on a Coppa Ham, Rocket and Tomato Salad with a Drizzle of Balsamic Vinegar Recipe
Got some leftover stale bread? Make your own crouton’s. The texture of these crunchy little morsels are so much nicer and so much less greasy than the shop kind. It is so good knowing I used all of my wholemeal bread (recipe here) with no wastage. The Coppa Ham melted in my mouth but that…
Puy Lentil, Pickled Carrot and Chorizo Salad with a Wholegrain Mustard Dressing Recipe
Get ready for the week ahead with a nice healthy fibrous salad. I can’t rave about pickled carrots enough, they have lasted weeks and the flavour gets a little more spicy from the ginger and garlic the longer they pickle. I love lentils and the health benefits you get from them, but they do need…
Baked Courgette, Broccoli and Pine Nut Salad with Halloumi and Sultana’s Recipe
Shake up your salad’s with something different. This is the first time I have had roasted broccoli and it was so delicious. This salad has everything you need regarding taste as you get texture and crunch from the pine nut’s, saltiness from the halloumi, earthiness from the broccoli and courgettes, sweetness from the sultana’s all of…
Balinese Marinated Roasted Pork Fillet with a Peanut Butter Gravy and Wild Rice Recipe
Bali holds a very special place in our hearts, it’s so special to us that we got married there last year. I love the food as it is so fresh and has so much flavour. One of our favourite dishes is satay and this dish is along those lines. I found the recipe on Pinterest,…
Rosemary Foccacia Recipe
So my vigininty breaking regarding bread continues. My second attempt after the wholemeal loaf is this simple foccacia (Paul Hollywood Recipe). When I was making the dough I was a ittle scared as the dough was so wet compared to the dry dough I used on my first loaf. I needn’t of worried as this…
Roasted Eggplant/Aubergine and Spinach Salad with a Feta, Olive, Lemon and Herb Dressing
This is so tasty and so healthy. We had forgotten to by some salad leaves and had some spinach, feta and a lemon left over from a previous recipes and we have some staples in the cupboard such as jarred olives, olive oil and balsamic. The herbs were from my windowsill and garden, mix all…
Refreshing Rhubarb, Ginger and Strawberry Sorbet Recipe
We got a bunch of lovely freshly cut rhubarb from a cottage who sells their excess produce in a trust hut. As we thought the mango and honey frozen youghurt was such a success we thought we would give a sorbet a try. This was easy to make and so refreshing perfect for a summery…
Grilled Scottish Langoustines with Lemon and Pepper Butter Recipe
So if you saw my last post you know that we treated ourselves to some scrummy shellfish. So alongside our oysters we also had these langoustines. They were scrummy and didn’t last long but we agreed it might not be worth all the aggravation regards preparing them, it is a lot more time consuming than…
Cornish Rockefeller Style Grilled Oysters Recipe
On fish Friday we went to our fishmongers he usually has a great selection of fish but due to the wonderful British weather ( or not) we have been having they hadn’t brought much in from their boats. We managed to get some seabass and hake and decided as we hadn’t spent as much as…
Cumin, Fennel and Chilli Sundried Tomato Jam Recipe
This recipe is delicious with any cheese, cured meat or on its own with fresh bread (recipe here). The original recipes I found didn’t have any fennel or cumin in them, after tasting we also added chilli flakes to give it a slight kick as we love bold flavours. I would definitely recommend giving this…
Easy Wholemeal Bread Recipe
I have been a bit of a wimp when it comes to making my own bread but Paulie found this artisan Wessex mill flour when he went shopping at the butchers so I thought I would give it a go as I saw on a programme there are up to 14 ingredients in some of…
