So here as promised is the amazing but again very simple to make maple-glazed hot dogs with mustardy onions. As you will of seen on my previous post, I served these with spicy potato wedges, but as Bonfire Night will soon be upon us I think these would be…
Spiced Potato Wedges
Not all good food has to be hard work, even the simplest of dishes can be made amazing with a few special ingredients and always try to use the best ingredients you can afford to buy. We cook pretty much every night, always from scratch, home cooked food for…
Boston Baked Beans with Crisp Pork Belly
This has to be one of the yummiest dishes I have eaten in a long time and I am not particularly a big pork lover. I must admit that I have altered the recipe a little, this was originally due to the fact that Hubby got the wrong beans, but…
Apple Crumble – Happy 21st Birthday Stephen

Baked pork chops with pears, potatoes and roquefort butter
Another autumnal one pot wonder was for dinner tonight. I love one pot dishes when I have worked all day, you chuck it all in and wait for it to cook while you get on with all the other millions of jobs that working Mum’s have to do. This one…
