Chicken Rezala – the perfect Sunday afternoon chill out dish 👍
After attending our first wedding for I can’t remember how long, taking advantage of the free drinks plus our first night without children for four years I couldn’t think of anything better to do on a Sunday afternoon than chill out in the kitchen whipping up food, making marinades, base sauce for the week and…

Cooking for others ❤️
Having planned a BBQ for friends who sadly we’ve not seen in a while our plans were ruined by the British summertime weather! Plan B. Indoor BBQ with the standard food.

Love trying alternatives to meat. Having been a pescatarian for almost 5 years this is a dish I’d never even thought of doing. So simple but amazing!!!! It’s a simple and placing all the ingredients in a bowl, mincing well and frying in rapeseed oil!! That’s it. The hard work is in the prep! Ingredients…
