A home for my personal foodie ramblings, culinary attempts, information on local produce and also for collecting my mum's recipes and culinary teachings, before she leaves this mortal coil!
I make my own beefburgers as most bought ones contain rusk or breadcrumbs, which is fine if you don’t suffer from coeliac disease. Not only can you get your butcher to mince you some good quality free-range beef but you can get more for your (read full article)
This one comes from my Mum… Last year Giles made some blackberry vodka – it is yummy. It set me thinking about what other fruit could be used. I had a lot of cherries given me and although I love them I could only eat so many! I made a ch (read full article)
Coronation chicken is the sort of British dish that makes the French laugh (it is after all, a mixture of meat and fruit, something they find alien). This recipe takes Coronation Chicken to a new level, making it into a respectable salad. The sauc (read full article)
I dont know where I found this recipe but it is a very nice light pudding. The alcohol can be left out to no real detriment to the taste, but you will need 2 lemons if you do not use it. It can be made very quickly if guests turn up unexpectedly. (read full article)
I have always made flapjacks – they have always been a family favourite. Also having Coeliac Disease I can tolerate oats as long as I don’t eat them every day. Usually I make them plain, but whilst sitting in the Dentist’s one d (read full article)
It seems ages since I wrote a blog post, what with the house move to a whole new county, taking over our lives for the last 4 weeks! Broadband has now finally been installed and there are fewer boxes in each room, allowing us to start cooking again (read full article)

As our home looks like a warehouse, with all the boxes about the place ready for the big move, I decided I would make something quick for supper so that it didnt create too much more mess and washing up! And as it was my girlfriends birthday over t (read full article)
The Lamb Pasanda Curry I blogged about at the start of the year, has become a firm family favourite and we have had it a few times since then, loving it every time. Having been given another shoulder of lamb, I decided I would try a new lamb curry f (read full article)
…and over 20,000 visitors later and the enjoyment of writing my food blog has not diminished! Over the last three months I have discovered a lot of things about blogging and about myself, I have made more online friends, read many more blogs, comm (read full article)
Simnel cake is a light fruit cake, similar to a Christmas cake, covered in marzipan, and eaten during Lent or at Easter. They have been around since mediaeval times, and were originally a Mothering Sunday tradition, when daughters would make one to (read full article)
Having bought the sweet potatoes today, to go with some steak from our local farm shop, I decided to do something new with them. A normal family favourite is to cook them in the oven and sprinkle some paprika over them for the last five minutes. T (read full article)
I always enjoy cooking recipes that have great preparations to them, like all the wonderful curries I have cooked recently, with their amazing herbs and spices (I love opening the cumin spice pot every single time just for the smell). But what is a (read full article)
This new post comes from my Mum… Recently was the 78th birthday of a very good friend of mine who originally came from New Zealand’s Coromandel Peninsular in the North Island but has lived in our village for over 25 years. He is also on (read full article)

This is just a different way of cutting up the Seville Oranges that were used in the first recipe. Instead of slicing the orange skins put them through a coarse mincer and then continue to cook in the same way. It just gives a different texture t (read full article)
It’s been a couple of weeks since I cooked up a curry for the blog, and with the inevitable house move on the horizon for my new job, we have started to use up the food in the freezer for our suppers. I found some beef fillet and some venison (read full article)
I’m still relatively new to making a risotto and after it seemingly being national risotto day on the Good Food Channel the other day, I picked up the first cook book to hand, Gordon Ramsay’s World Kitchen and started looking for one to (read full article)
As Nigella mentions at the start of this recipe, scallops have long been paired with other foods like bacon and chilli. It has even been paired with black pudding in a James Martin recipe. Nigella chose to use Chorizo as it is a combination of the (read full article)
As I said in my last post, at the weekend I wanted to cook something other than a usual Sunday roast after seeing James Martin’s recipe. I love spending time preparing all the food for a roast normally but wanted to see if there was something (read full article)
