King Prawn Pad Thai

I really like Asian food, but I’ll admit – its definitely not my strong point in the kitchen! One thing I have learned is that; in order to get those fragrant and fresh Asian flavours, you need a lot of ingredients and many of them HAVE to be fresh! Dried versions (unless specified) just won’t…

Freezing Fresh Herbs

I love fresh herbs, nothing beats how they look and smell in a dish and I always try to have some on standby. I’ve never had that much luck with growing them myself mind; rosemary, thyme, parsley and coriander seem to survive but my favourite – basil never quite works out. I often buy those…

Griddled Pork Steaks & Herby Crushed Potatoes

Pork used to be at the bottom of my favourite meats list, but recently I’ve grown to to love it… especially its price tag! Pork offers a variety of cuts and I wouldn’t hesitate to say its just as versatile as chicken ! If you can make it with chicken…I bet you can make it…

Dad’s Hearty Scrambled Eggs

As the title suggests this dish is my late Dad’s. I’m not sure how it came about exactly but I’m sure it has something to do with my dad not wanting to do a load of dishes after making breakfast for a family of five! This ‘one pan’ mini full English dish makes a fantastic…

Tuna Pasta Bake for Grown Ups

OK so I know what you’re thinking…tuna pasta bake? Admittedly in my younger years as a student I loved this stuff! In a sachet or in a jar, I didn’t care I just fancied it! This dish is super satisfying and sometimes you know only a pasta bake is going to hit the spot! As…

Loaded Potato Skins

The name says it all! Loaded with cheese these beauties taste as naughty as they look! Not recommended for anyone watching the calories! These are ideal as a snack or a side to BBQ or grilled meats and fish – just as easy to make in large quantities as they are for two! And if…

Roast Lamb Shoulder Au Jus

Lamb – a symbol of spring! As I write this its the first day of Spring in the UK and its a Sunday so despite having lots of ‘real’ work to do all I can think about is preparing Easter crafts, planning an Easter cake and of course a traditional lamb roast! So I don’t…

Full English on Toast

This breakfast should hit all the right spots but with less mess and less calories! And doesn’t it look great? Ideal for breakfast at the weekend (when you have a little more time). Ingredients (Serves 1) 2 slices of smoked streaky bacon – You want the streaky kind so that you can get the bacon super crispy…

Smoked Salmon and Poached Egg on Toast

OK so this one is seriously simple and seriously delish! One of my favourite weekend breakfasts and always goes down well with guests – better still hardly any pots to clean up afterwards! Ingredients (serves 1) 1 chunky slice of gluten free bread (It’s got to be a homemade loaf for me!) 1 large free…
