At the beginning of June I went over to Spain and spent a few days in the Galician region. One of the highlights for me was a visit to Mercado de Abastos, the food market in Santiago de Compostela. Being one of the few times I have taken my camera out of the house I know I need more practice atContinue reading “Mercado de Abastos – Santiago de Compostela”

Pork Kebabs
Last week I made these delicious pork kebabs with soy and ginger after stumbling across the recipe on the Asda website as I had some pork fillet to use up. Super easy to make but best marinated overnight if possible to really get the flavour into the meat. I served mine with a green saladContinue reading “Pork Kebabs”
Healthier Lemon Tart
My 2016 entry for the Eurovision party was this lower fat lemon tart on BBC Good Food, or tarte au citron seeing as I was bringing a French themed morsel to the party table. It uses low fat creme fraiche instead of cream but none of the party guests could tell it was a healthier take onContinue reading “Healthier Lemon Tart”
Overnight Oats
In my quest to lose some weight before the wedding at the end of May I turned to Madeline Shaw’s Get The Glow in the library. There she was smiling smugly on the cover with a bowl of something leafy so I guessed this Overnight Oats recipe that immediately caught my eye whilst flicking through wouldContinue reading “Overnight Oats”
Baked Fishcakes
This recipe is based on the Hairy Dieters home made fishcakes but I tinkered with the quantities slightly based on what I had to hand. I also made these gluten free by using gluten free seeded bread whizzed to breadcrumbs. I can never be bothered with shallow frying and baking these fishcakes also means it’sContinue reading “Baked Fishcakes”

Maybe last year wasn’t the fluke I thought it was…… Once again, lots of stunning images and my marmite sausage rolls are amongst them in the Food Blogger category. If you wouldContinue reading “Pink Lady Food Photographer of the Year – Peoples Choice Vote”
Victoria Sandwich
I have a new oven… That cooks things…..in the time it’s supposed to! So to celebrate and test out said new oven I thought I’d christen it with a classic Victoria sponge sandwich. I can report it had a nice even bake and no noticeable hot spots. For the last few weeks I have beenContinue reading “Victoria Sandwich”
Bounty Bar Cake
Last weekend I was feeling a need for dense chocolate cake and an even greater need not to have to get dressed and buy ingredients or spend ages baking so I remembered this super easy Bounty Bar Cake from the River Cottage Handbook No 8 – Cakes by Pam Corbin. Aside from having the patience andContinue reading “Bounty Bar Cake”
Hot Honey, Lemon & Ginger Drink
Happy new year! Hope 2016 has been kind to everyone so far. Last week my friend Michael asked on Facebook what he should do with lemon and ginger to help his man flu so thought this hot honey, lemon and ginger recipe might be useful for others too during the winter months. I store theContinue reading “Hot Honey, Lemon & Ginger Drink”
Rosemary Gimlet
I had plans to reshoot this as a winter cocktail but wanted to wish everyone a happy new year so at the 11th hour I bring you a rosemary gimlet. I saw this recipe on the wonderful David Lebovitz’s blog a month or so ago and knew I had to give it a go. RushingContinue reading “Rosemary Gimlet”
