Ricotta Doughnuts Recipe I bloody love a doughnut. This could stem from a childhood spent eating the hot ones, freshly fried, from the end of Eastbourne Pier, or could just be because I’m a bit of a pig. What’s not to like about hot, fried dough, sprinkled in sugar? Well, the what’s not to like…
Crispy Cauliflower with Lemon Sauce Recipe As I write, the Christmas tree’s down, presents have been put away and there’s only two tubs of Celebrations left to be eaten. I am clutching a glass of wine with the prospect of not having another until, at best, Thursday and feeling, frankly, deflated. I know I’m not…
Meatloaf with Bacon and Rosemary Recipe With just over a week to go until Christmas, activity in the kitchen is ramping up. Well, apart from the fact I have a hideous cold and hacking cough, and can think of nothing I want to do less than cook. But the show and Lucy Loves and everyday…
Baked Brie with Cranberry Jam recipe Ok, so you have my permission to start panicking a little about Christmas now. We’re on a 2 week countdown and, as is the same every year, I promise I won’t fill my diary, then every year I fill it right up. That and the endless lists; lists of…

Marzipan Cookie Bar Recipe Cookie bars are my kryptonite. I love making them, I love eating them and I love finding new ones to make and eat. They rock in so many ways and here comes a list a) they are usually one bowl affairs, although for this recipe you’ll have to wash it up…
Simple Pork Dumplings Recipe I love a dumpling. I have spent years ordering them from takeaways or buying them frozen from the oriental supermarket, safe in the knowledge they were far too much of a kerfuffle to make myself. Well I wished I hadn’t waited 49 bloody years to try. These Simple Pork Dumplings are,…
Does the top shelf of your fridge look like mine? Picture this if you will; row upon row of jars in various shapes and sizes. I have every condiment you can imagine up there: mint sauce, mint jelly, horseradish, sambal oelek, lazy garlic and ginger and jam in every flavour you could possibly imagine. And…
This Cod with Chorizo and Chimichurri is the sort of dish I dream about. When I get recipe ideas in my head I get slightly obsessed and start to bore myself thinking about how it will work. I knew what I wanted to be included in this delicious one pot dish, but felt it was…
Challah Bread Recipe I’ve always loved Challah bread never really knowing it was a such an iconic Jewish loaf.
