Easy lamb curry
A good lamb curry recipe is a must have for winter and this one is very easy, tastes amazing and will have you returning to the pot more than once. I am not mad for very hot curries but if you like some heat in yours, just increase the chili powder amount. You can...
Chicken Cashew Nut
Most of us who love Chinese or Asian style food will have ordered chicken cashew nut many times. We really love this chicken cashew nut recipe, it has a great amount of sauce and the chicken is really moist inside from being covered in corn flour (maizena) before...
Spicy one pot eggs and tomato breakfast
We have been eating late breakfasts as part of an intermittent fasting exercise during lockdown, for fear of really packing on the pounds. Brunch is a big meal which means we havn't eaten for about 16 hours. We most often have a traditional style breakfast/brunch...
Roast stuffed butternut
This recipe was an experiment which really turned out incredibly well. I felt like a different type of vegetable dish after a 2 weeks of lockdown. We had been making stir fries, saute veggies and the always present well baked potato, and however delicious those things...
2 very easy Pasta sauces in 10 minutes
I came across a bag of frozen chicken ravioli from Mafiosi in the Bluebird shopping centre (an amazing little family run Italian restaurant and deli) and wanted to make something simple and bit special, so I decided to make 2 quick and easy pasta sauces so that we...
Tashas Hyde Park Creamy bacon and Mushrooms on Toast
Before lockdown we would go to Tasha's in Hyde Park on the weekends to have their creamy mushrooms and bacon on toast, served with poched eggs. It is such an incredibly tasty meal, we just cannot get enough of it. I didn't know until recently that each Tashas has one...
A Brilliant explanation for small children (Corona virus)
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...
Slow cooker fall off the bone leg of lamb
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...
Chicken with Pesto and Mozzarella Cheese
I have become a big fan of flattening chicken breasts before I cook them. They cook in a flash, are never underdone and are as tender as you can imagine. I will be posting a chicken with creamy parmesan sauce soon but this chicken with pesto and cheese was so...
Chicken and Mushroom Pie
We are big fans of home made pies and there are many recipes on this website like the chicken, ham and leek pie recipe. I was watching one of Jamie Olivers 30 minute meals programs and the recipe really looked amazing so gave it a try. Well, it was very delicious and...
