I have to admit that I nearly did not post the recipe for these crab cakes with tartar sauce as I wasn’t that keen on them, it was my own fault, I thought that I loved tarragon, I got a bit heavy handed with it and when it came to eat…
Smoked Haddock Toasties
This week is an odd one, Rosie and Luca are both away on holiday, leaving just Myself, Hubby and Olly at home, I miss them terribly but have to admit that the house staying clean and tidy, plus a nearly empty washing basket every day is a nice bonus! It…
Chorizo Pilaf
I am not going to put this Chorizo Pilaf under the mains category of Indian, Italian or Spanish, but in ‘other’, this is because I feel that this dish falls somewhere between a paella and a risotto, slow-cooked basmati rice with deep paprika flavours and even though I feel more Spanish…
Caramelised Balsamic Onion and Gruyere Pizza

Leek, Potato and Goats Cheese Tarte Tatin

Baked Spaghetti with Chorizo, Mozzarella and Eggs
This very rich, very yummy baked spaghetti with chorizo, pepper, eggs and mozzarella has to be one of the nicest recipes ever, the recipe is for two and we enjoyed it in the garden in glorious sunshine over the weekend, but all I could think of was how much Stephen,…
Sesame Orange Chicken
Well I have to admit it, I am loving the slow cooker !!! There, I said it, its out there. What I really love about it, apart from the fact that it is so easy to use is, you just dump all the ingredients into the pot, leave it to…
Pulled BBQ Chicken with Coleslaw
This is one of those posts where I wish I hadn’t of been so keen to eat the food and had taken more photo’s !!! I will try to be more patient next time but it is very hard when the rest of your family are tucking in and making…
