I’ve been eating more lentils and pulses this year. They are delicious and full of nutrients, a brilliant source of protein, iron and fibre (helping reduce your appetite if you’re watching your weight, which you might be in January!). Serves 2 generously.
A very quick and tasty lentil and leek dish flavoured with fresh thyme and dried fennel seeds. Delicious on it’s own or as a vegetable side dish, and surprisingly good cold too.
Happy New year to you all from our lovely beachhut on the South coast at Cooden Bay. A place very special to me, somewhere I walked our lovely labrador in all weathers, where the weather was always completely different from inland. Once we crossed the marshes, even in the rain, often the weather was sunny and warm on the beach. There is something very special about the sea air, sea scape, open skies and clean air.
Mincepies flavoured with a little amaretto, pastry made with orange zest and almonds. A little festive baking!
It’s beginning to smell a lot like Christmas! This will fill your kitchen with beautiful spicy aromas whilst you wrap your Christmas presents. Naturally sweet and deliciously spicy.
Delectable chocolate and orange brownies, flavoured with a little orange extract, crystalized orange peel and cranberries. Delicious!
Filling the kitchen with wonderful festive scent as I finish writing my Christmas cards, these easy delicious little scones will get you into the spirit of the season. Makes 12.
I have some beautiful rainbow coloured Swiss chard to cook, both the stems and the leaves. A fabulous way to brighten up your supper tonight. Serves 2.
A couple of days in Venice were the tonic we needed in November. Venice is relatively quiet at this time of year, a great time to visit.
