Just as the heatwave disappears, this week, ironically my recipe requires no oven time and is light and refreshing. Summer Ceviche Recipe Well, this recipe has slightly fallen flat because, as I write, it’s raining and the temperature has dropped 20 degrees from this time last week. When I originally photographed my Summer Ceviche, I…
Back from my travels, it’s time for a quick and easy sweet treat to keep hungry mouths happy during the summer break. I have never been a huge fan of a hot milky drink. I drink black coffee or strong tea so the thought of a sweet, malty milky mug of something has never been…
It’s nearly time to go off on our holidays. Take a batch of these simple scones with you for picnic perfection. We are off on our travels in the next couple of weeks and even though we are staying in the UK, I am most excited to be a) not at work b) cooking in…
This week, what with all this warm weather, why not try this recipe and enjoy eating it in the garden. I have always been a bit phobic of barbecues. Not because I fear under cooked meats and the potential consequences involved. What I fear is Clyde cremating expensive meat beautifully marinated by me and us…
Use any glut of summer fruits you may have to fashion these tasty baked treats. At this time of the year, as a child, we would always be dragged off to some rogue field for a Pick Your Own Strawberries day out. I never particularly looked forward to it, but looking back, it was great…
This week, with so much football on, let’s console ourselves with a delicious TV dinner. I seem to have a pizza recipe for all occasions. I love my White No Knead Pizza when time is tight and sometimes only an over stuffed Stromboli will do. So when I found this Deep Pan Pepperoni Pizza recipe, I almost didn’t…
If you would like to bake this coming Father’s Day, then this weeks recipe for you. This year, I am giving you plenty of warning to be ready for Father’s Day on Sunday. I am not going to go to the shop to buy your card for you, but I am going to share a…
This week, I would have much rather been sitting in the sunshine than cooking, but this delicious pud lured my back inside. I love this warm spell, it feels like summer is really here and has done for the last couple of weeks. This will, of course, curse the rest of the season, so apologies…
This week, it’s simple, quick noodle supper time, courtesy of Lucy via Nigel Slater. I am slightly in love with Nigel Slater. A random choice I know, but his calm nature and ability to put together a dish without drama and in such an unpretentious way draws me to him. That and the fact he…
The Royal Wedding is nearly here, thanks to Lucy Loves and East Sheen Village you too can enjoy the happy couples wedding cakes in your own home. I completely love a royal wedding. I shouldn’t be such an old romantic, but Prince Harry and Meghan Markle do seem to be genuinely in love and on a…
