I make jam (jelly for my friends on the other side of the pond) pretty much every year. I’m lucky enough to have some mature fruit trees on my property and hate the thought of the fruit going to waste. the birds and bugs get some, of course. But the trees produce so much that ..read more

Salads are massively underrated. During the summer I eat salads pretty much every day with different cheeses, fish or roasted vegetables and of course, dressings. I love a shop-bought salad dressing, it’s so easy to put a bottle in your lunch bag to take to work, but if I’m at home, I like to make ..read more

Quiche and salad is a staple summertime lunch for me, and this Spinach and Ricotta Quiche is particularly tasty. It’s light, creamy and really easy to make. As always, you can of course, use ready made pastry, but I do recommend giving my wholemeal shortcrust pastry a go, as it really adds something to the ..read more

I first ate pistachio ice cream on the island of Capri, overlooking the Bay of Naples in Italy. It was absolutely delicious, and has been my favourite flavour of ice cream ever since. Pistachio ice cream is quite difficult to get hold of in the UK. Magnum brought out a limited edition pistachio version a ..read more

Potato Salad is a must at any BBQ, picnic or garden party. It’s so quick and easy to make and is absolutely delicious with quiche, salad, meats and vegetables. You can, of course, use regular potatoes. But I think the tinned new potatoes taste really nice, and as there’s no washing, peeling or chopping, they ..read more

I know for most people Easter is all about chocolate, but the traditional Easter cake is actually Simnel Cake, which is a fruit cake covered in marzipan. I love it, but if I presented a slice of fruit cake to my husband or nieces after Easter dinner, I’d never be allowed to bake another cake ..read more

Valentine’s Day is fast approaching and of course, you could get your partner (or friend if you’re doing Galentine’s) the obvious flowers and chocolates. But why not go for something a little different this year? These homemade bath salts are super easy to make, look really impressive and more importantly, feel luxurious when you’re soaking ..read more

Happy new year! This is the perfect dish for January. White fish baked in a creamy garlic sauce with fresh parsley and a cheesy breadcrumb crust. If you’re anything like me, you’ve been surviving off cheese and wine for a week, and ready to introduce some decent food back into your diet. But going cold ..read more

I know, I know. It’s a weird name, but that’s what I call them. If you have a better suggestion, let me know! They’re yummy little puff pastry parcels with gooey cheese, herbs and chutney inside. Like a posh, mini cheese pasty, if you will. They make brilliant nibbles to have with drinks, or as ..read more
