Love roast potatoes, the best comfort food around !!
Roast potatoes give me one of the best food memories around. They take me right back to my childhood. For me they are one of the best comfort foods around. They contain so much flavour buts down to you to add the flavour!!! Here is my simple yet rewarding method to maximising flavours. Firstly, as…
A very simple roast chicken hack from the legend MPW!
This is such a simple yet obvious way of taking a humble chicken to another level! Everyone loves a Sunday roast. I 100% agree with the food critic Jay Rayner that you can never eat a wonderful Sunday roast out in a restaurant simple due to the practicality of it. The Sunday roast is a…
Sautéed sea bream with parsley, garlic & spaghetti 👌🏻
My old MD before I left called me a ‘one trick pony’! I’m sure you’ll agree, excellent man management skills! I’ve never forgotten those words and I’m very conscious of those words in work, life & with my cooking. Whilst my ‘go to’ is Indian food as I’m sure those that have read any of…
A Diwali celebration – Mowgli paneer ❤️
Now, I love paneer. It’s such an amazing comfort food. The paneer whatever dish you are cooking absorbs the flavours like a sponge. Also paneer offers a great cost effective dish as a single pack from the supermarket usually costs around or below the £2 mark and feeds two people comfortably. So to celebrate Diwali…
Homemade pizza’s….I’m addicted ❤️

I’ve already cooked…
Salsiccia de maiale e mele con rigatoni – my first created & written pasta recipe ❤️
This….is my first written and created pasta recipe. Using flavours & ingredients which are cupboard essentials in my house. Quite proud of this and the fact it tasted really good shows my I’m on the right path. Any dish written in Italian sounds better, even if it is just pork and apple sausage meat with…
My beautiful cottage pie !
I’ve recently started to challenge myself to put my spin on classic dishes. Understand the basics better then recreate with my twist. Could be anything from baking, to roasting or beautiful home cooking like this dish. Again, this dish was made from scratch after walking in from work. I’m making this point as I often…
Almond tart….so good I made it twice in two days 👍🏻
Baking frustrates me, always has done. However, this was for MacMillan coffee morning so I had to out my own frustrations aside, and I’m so glad I did. I’ve now got a new outlook on baking ❤️ What better than choose a Mary Berry recipe to get me going?? This was the first of two…
British Beef Raj Curry 🍜
I love cooking this dish from Rick Stein’s ‘India’ cook book. It’s a great dish due to the simplicity & the flavours. I have to be honest, it’s my go to comfort food, perfect to put on and leave to cook whilst pottering about. The flavours are insane considering you are only using 3 ground…
