CHICKPEA & LENTIL BALLS WITH LIME PADRON SAUCE
Posted on July 27, 2019July 24, 2019

CHICKPEA & LENTIL BALLS WITH LIME PADRON SAUCE

One of the hardest things for any recipe writer, or any home cook for that matter, is deciding whether or not to be guided by some kind of formula prior to cooking. The decision whether or not to be guided by instinct or instruction is one that splits many cook. Some like to follow a … Continue reading CHICKPEA & LENTIL BALLS WITH LIME PADRON SAUCE

TOMATO, COURGETTE & BAKED FETA SANDWICH WITH MISO MAYO
Posted on May 27, 2019May 11, 2019

TOMATO, COURGETTE & BAKED FETA SANDWICH WITH MISO MAYO

I’d go to war for a good sandwich. Remember that episode of Friends? When Joey threw himself on his sandwich to save it from what he thought was gunshot? That’s a real instinct. It’s a thing. And I’d absolutely throw my body on his sandwich. And then do a snow angel in it. This sandwich … Continue reading TOMATO, COURGETTE & BAKED FETA SANDWICH WITH MISO MAYO

GLOBE ARTICHOKE WITH GARLIC DIP
Posted on May 15, 2019

GLOBE ARTICHOKE WITH GARLIC DIP

Ever since I landed from a two week food and cooking trip in Florence last October, I’ve had my nose to the ground trying to sniff out artichokes. I fell in love with the peculiar, alien like flower-looking things when I was cooking in Florence and knew I would be greeted with frustration in my … Continue reading GLOBE ARTICHOKE WITH GARLIC DIP

ROAST BABY GEMS WITH BLACK RICE & LIME COCONUT YOGURT
Posted on April 22, 2019April 22, 2019

ROAST BABY GEMS WITH BLACK RICE & LIME COCONUT YOGURT

I had a thought. It was after I coated my halved baby gem lettuces in oil and then slipped them into the oven to be slathered in black rice and a coconut yogurt. Pulling up from the oven with a smile on my face, I had a thought. ‘When did I become a food wanker?’ … Continue reading ROAST BABY GEMS WITH BLACK RICE & LIME COCONUT YOGURT

ROAST RED PEPPER SAUCE
Posted on April 7, 2019March 24, 2019

ROAST RED PEPPER SAUCE

I want to introduce you to the most versatile sauce you will ever have in your fridge. The other week I made Sausage & Lentils which made use of those slippery, oily roast red peppers that come in a big, obtuse green jar (if you shop in LIDL, you know the kind). Now I wouldn’t … Continue reading ROAST RED PEPPER SAUCE

CARROT & HAZELNUT PESTO
Posted on April 4, 2019

CARROT & HAZELNUT PESTO

When I make pasta, I cannot stop myself from making enough to feed an army. There’s nothing like the buttery taste of pasta and I am very proud of myself in the quantity of pasta I can eat in one sitting. As I told you before, I impressed an Italian chef who has been working … Continue reading CARROT & HAZELNUT PESTO

CARROT & GINGER MARMALADE
Posted on March 13, 2019March 12, 2019

CARROT & GINGER MARMALADE

Often times, marmalade straddles the thin line of retro cool and old lady cringe. It’s a line I straddle like a rodeo clown. I straddle it with a smile. A good marmalade is like a man with good money, good manners and good sense. So difficult to come by. In fact, the only good marmalade … Continue reading CARROT & GINGER MARMALADE

BEER & CARAWAY GLAZED CHICKEN WITH MINI JACKETS & BLUE CHEESE SAUCE
Posted on February 23, 2019February 23, 2019

BEER & CARAWAY GLAZED CHICKEN WITH MINI JACKETS & BLUE CHEESE SAUCE

A good 90% of this website is chicken based. I could be a colonel. But every time you see a recipe for chicken here, you can normally count on it being roasted. You could bet good money on it. And if you want to make even MORE money, you can bet that it was also … Continue reading BEER & CARAWAY GLAZED CHICKEN WITH MINI JACKETS & BLUE CHEESE SAUCE

MUSHROOM & CHESTNUT SLIDERS WITH QUICK APRICOT MUSTARD CHUTNEY
Posted on January 17, 2019January 16, 2019

MUSHROOM & CHESTNUT SLIDERS WITH QUICK APRICOT MUSTARD CHUTNEY

I got bored of food. Yes. You read correctly. About a year or so ago I was bored of food. As somebody that writes about food (or more specifically, the cooking of it), finding yourself in a stale creative space is not ideal. Not at all. But I found that my entire approach to food … Continue reading MUSHROOM & CHESTNUT SLIDERS WITH QUICK APRICOT MUSTARD CHUTNEY

BURNT GARLIC HUMMUS
Posted on January 14, 2019January 13, 2019

BURNT GARLIC HUMMUS

Having something with ‘burnt garlic’ in it doesn’t sound particularly sexy, does it? Conjures up images of charcoal. But what I mean by burnt garlic here is a whole cloves of garlic cooked in a low oven so that’s is caramelises into a velvet smooth golden purée. And it tastes every bit as amazing as … Continue reading BURNT GARLIC HUMMUS
