An easy tequila kombucha cocktail recipe with a squeeze of lime and drizzle of honey, perfect for sipping and entertaining. Cheers! #tequila #kombucha #easycocktails

MISO MARINATED STEAK NOODLES: I think my desert island dinner would include noodles (or maybe also pizza as there is no cheese here...) because they are just so versatile! What would you go for? These noods pack a FLAVOUR PUNCH with thin slices of steak marinated in sweet white miso then flash-fried; the noodles got a coating of a grated ginger and garlic a little chicken stock light soy sauce and sesame oil. Everything was finished with fresh coriander spring onion and lip-tingling red…

SATAY STYLE BANG BANG CHICKEN NOODLES: Another day another quick bowl of steaming noodles! This time I've gone for a hot and spicy PEANUT PARTY because it's nearly the weekend! My sauce? A massive dollop of whole earth peanut butter melted down with a load of red chilli and garlic paste thinned with chicken stock then a splash of light SOY sauce a little rice vinegar a few drops of SESAME oil finely chopped coriander stalks and grated GINGER. I used half of the sauce to coat my leftover…

PORK BELLY WITH CELERIAC GNOCCHI: Tonight I'm throwing it back to one of my FAVOURITE dishes of the season; my pseudo-Italian take on a roast. This plate of YUM consists of juicy salt pepper pork belly with crispy cracking sat on a bed of buttery cavolo nero with homemade celeriac gnocchi... I'm going to have to make this again soon because my mouth is already starting to water as I type out this caption! . This is my entry for the 'Only Child' #eatcaptureshare challenge from…

BUTTER ROASTED CHICKEN HERBY ORZO: THIS is what happens when butter roast chicken meets za'atar-infused orzo with lemon and thyme! When I was roasting my buttery chicken off for yesterday's dinner I decided I wanted something a little lighter on the side yet still unbelievably comforting! Heeey there ORZO! I cooked it in the roasting juices from the chicken for extra FLAVOUR DECADENCE added sweet shallots and garlic sea salt and black pepper my favourite za'atar spice blend lemon zest juice

MINI SPELT FRITTERS WITH PARMESAN COURGETTE: Wow it's been windy here today! Me and the pup nearly blew away on our morning walk... so I decided to retreat back into my cosy kitchen to make a few salads and snacks ready for the working week whilst a chicken roasts away for our dinner! These beauties are mini courgette fritters (3 grated made about 25!) flavoured with LEMON black pepper and RAS EL HANOUT then bound together with PARMESAN and a scoop of SPELT flavour. I fried them in a little…

JUICY PORK BELLY WITH CELERIAC MASH: Sunday slow cooking means a delicious twist on the roast; juicy salt and pepper pork belly with lemony charred leeks and an olive oil celeriac mash! I've had a fab day in the kitchen today making a homity pie for our lunches this week (using up the leeks!) AND a blood orange almond cake for our sweet treats. It's so much nicer taking homemade food to work and saves us a load of money! Happy Sunday . . . . . . . #porkbelly #celeriac #roastdinner…

GOLDEN CHICKEN KABOBS: Hey sunshine when I'm a little short on time (AKA starving) cooking chicken under the grill (broiler) is the way to go! I marinated this super quick in natural yogurt turmeric garlic olive oil and black pepper then grilled it until cooked (around 10mins). The yoghurt helps to create a shield so it can get all charred on the outside but stay JUICY on the inside. Simply serve with a quinoa (pasta potato rice whatever you fancy) salad for a meal that's in front of you in…

QUICK CONFIT TOMATOES ON TOAST: How can a handful of slow-cooked cherry tomatoes taste SO GOOD? For a quick confit these were roasted in olive oil and fresh rosemary for around 45mins and then poured all over some unbuttered toast. I added a big pinch of za'atar sea salt and shredded basil to finish... My partner's in Budapest for the weekend (lucky thing!) so today's solo plans include a sunny dog walk a little retail therapy and something yummy for dinner (although I haven't decided what…

CHORIZO CHILE CON QUESO (AKA AMAZING DIP): Who wants to take a dip with me? Well get your tortilla chips at the ready it's FRIDAY! ...This dreamy dish is my take on a DELICIOUS appetiser that I had the pleasure of eating with some BEAUTIFUL people last year (you know who you are!). Mine is loaded with a mix of strong cheddar emmental and mozzarella mixed with spicy chorizo red chilli and sweet shallot; this melting pot is dangerously addictive . . . . . #chileconqueso #queso #tortillachips…

THIN-CRUST SOURDOUGH PIZZA: Guess what...? We made it to the weekend! I for one am SUPER HAPPY because I actually have zero fixed plans so I can just take it as it comes... In the meantime it's Friday night so pizza? Specifically THIS homemade SOURDOUGH pizza! I simply topped mine with creamy mozzarella sweet sun-dried tomatoes smoky chorizo and fragrant rosemary I'm a thin crust kinda girl how about you? . . . . . #sourdough #sourdoughpizza #pizzanight #thincrustpizza #thincrust…

HONEY-GRANOLA COOKIES WITH KOMBUCHA ICING: I've had a quiet weekend enjoying a little time playing in the kitchen seeing friends and catching up with family BUT I thought I'd pop by to share these COOKIES with you! ...Just in time for any homemade Valentine's Day gifts I developed these yummy little bites for the @sainsburys recipe hub (so you can actually get the recipe --> LINK IN BIO!) - they're packed full of GRANOLA raisins nuts oats and sweetened with HONEY. I also created a rather…
