I came across this video earlier and thought it too important not to post. If you have small children, grand children or know anyone with children, let them watch this and then do it at home. This really is the best I have seen for kids.
Chicken, leek and mushroom pie
I made this chicken pie the other night and it is becoming a favourite. It really is very simple, takes about 20-30 mins of preperation and 30 mins in the oven. Don't be tempted to leave out the cream or ask what to substitute it with, it makes a huge difference and...

Since discovering the joys of a slow cooker I have made a few things but none are as easy and delicious as this fall off the bone slow cooker leg of lamb recipe. It is moist, comes off the bone with tongs and tastes incredible. We are huge potato eaters in our house...

This is the easiest way to cook eisbein. It removes some of the fat, cooks it through and you have control over the crackling and the crackling is what it is all about after all 🙂 Ever since I had eisbein at a restaurant near the Randburg magistrates court, I have...
Chicken Chorizo (2017 update)
I had some left over penne from the night before and found a chorizo and some other goodies which I needed to use. I really love digging out what I have not used every few days and seeing what I can come up with, it doesn't always work out as I expect but this one was...
