ROSEMARY, OLIVE & MILK BRINE FOCACCIA
Posted on October 2, 2021September 24, 2021

ROSEMARY, OLIVE & MILK BRINE FOCACCIA

There are some breads in life that are designed to fulfil a prophecy bigger than it’s intended bake. A big, pillow rustic loaf of white bread, for example, is a stalwart bread. It’s eager to be toast, it’s ready for sandwiches, it wants to be fried, it’s hoping it’ll be soaked in a boozy custard … Continue reading ROSEMARY, OLIVE & MILK BRINE FOCACCIA

QUICK MEATBALLS & SPICY PEPPER SAUCE
Posted on September 26, 2021September 26, 2021

QUICK MEATBALLS & SPICY PEPPER SAUCE

There is a scenic recipe route for cooking meatballs. Lavish, sepia toned landscape affairs of frying onions, soaking cuts of bread in milk, cracking eggs, grating garlic, combining two bricks of ground beef and sausage and then a laborious amount of dexterity. This isn’t that recipe. If that recipe is hiking the Himalayas to meatballs, … Continue reading QUICK MEATBALLS & SPICY PEPPER SAUCE

SAFFRON & CITRUS BAKED CAULIFLOWER
Posted on August 7, 2021August 3, 2021

SAFFRON & CITRUS BAKED CAULIFLOWER

Saffron is like the culinary equivalent of a lava lamp. Stay with me. Once saffron gets its spindly little Valentine hued frond into a meal, the whole thing is lit up with a warm, golden red aura. That’s why, when I cook with it, I like to get something pale and interesting so that it … Continue reading SAFFRON & CITRUS BAKED CAULIFLOWER

CHOCOLATE BUCKWHEAT PANCAKES WITH ANISE POACHED PEACHES
Posted on July 3, 2021July 3, 2021

CHOCOLATE BUCKWHEAT PANCAKES WITH ANISE POACHED PEACHES

Kitchen folklore will tell you that the first pancake you fry – regardless of your skill level – will always be shit. I can testify that this is often the truth. Frying pancake batter, you need at least one or two crap ones out of the way first so that you can get used to … Continue reading CHOCOLATE BUCKWHEAT PANCAKES WITH ANISE POACHED PEACHES

HARISSA CHICKEN ESCALOPES
Posted on June 5, 2021June 3, 2021

HARISSA CHICKEN ESCALOPES

My Mam once told me that she and I are very similar in many ways, but none more so than our inability to understand why people just don’t think like we do. I don’t understand why somebody would scream that they hate liver but claim to love pate. I don’t understand why people wouldn’t dream … Continue reading HARISSA CHICKEN ESCALOPES

DARK CHERRY & MASCARPONE FREEZER CAKE
Posted on May 22, 2021May 13, 2021

DARK CHERRY & MASCARPONE FREEZER CAKE

Okay. So here we go. There are some recipes I have that I feel are useful to have in the back of your brain for when you want them. This is a recipe I demand you have in the back of your freezer for when you NEED it. Which will be always and forevermore once … Continue reading DARK CHERRY & MASCARPONE FREEZER CAKE

CHOCOLATE, ORANGE & PEANUT GRANOLA
Posted on May 8, 2021May 5, 2021

CHOCOLATE, ORANGE & PEANUT GRANOLA

Both making and eating granola makes me feel like I have my life together. I know there are negative connotations around those who make their own granola – it conjures images of meditation circles, hemp and constantly having a muslin cloth with some dripping homemade labneh hanging over your sink faucet. I promise you can … Continue reading CHOCOLATE, ORANGE & PEANUT GRANOLA

TURKISH DELIGHT ETON MESS
Posted on May 1, 2021April 28, 2021

TURKISH DELIGHT ETON MESS

Okay. So we’re approaching the beginning of the middle of the end of this novel we call Covid-19 and I for one am furiously licking my thumb to turn the page. I don’t care about spoilers. I want this book done. This does mean that eventually we will be released into the wild and we … Continue reading TURKISH DELIGHT ETON MESS

CAPRESE SALAD WITH PROSCIUTTO
Posted on April 24, 2021April 21, 2021

CAPRESE SALAD WITH PROSCIUTTO

Upon hearing that I was a food writer who shares recipes, someone once rolled their eyes and sarcastically asked ‘So what… he writes a recipe for a Caprese Salad and thinks he’s reinvented it?’ One could argue this person has never experienced a real passion (poor cow) but another would argue this person has missed … Continue reading CAPRESE SALAD WITH PROSCIUTTO

PEANUT BUTTER & SALTED CARAMEL MILLIONAIRE SHORTBREAD
Posted on April 10, 2021April 7, 2021

PEANUT BUTTER & SALTED CARAMEL MILLIONAIRE SHORTBREAD

This recipe to me is the epitome of taking something good and making it even better. I remember the first time I made these little millionaire squares. It was an optimistic Spring day and my friends and I decided to have a picnic. I wanted to make something I could box up and pick at … Continue reading PEANUT BUTTER & SALTED CARAMEL MILLIONAIRE SHORTBREAD
