ON THE MENU TONIGHT: Roast Pepper & Goats Cheese Bruscetta; Salmon en Croute with Rocket & Parmesan Pesto; Vanilla Cheesecakes with Berries. COR! Just look at that…what’s not to enjoy? Crisp puff pastry; a tangy pesto made from rocket, Parmesan and toasted pine-nuts; and a deliciously moist salmon fillet. Just lovely. And easy – I…
ON THE MENU TONIGHT: Smoked Salmon tartlets with a Parmesan crust; Pan-fried Pork Chops with Pepper Relish & Celeriac Mash; Baked Figs with Cinnamon & Honey. Now then, this is a good one. By good, I mean cheap, tasty, easy and impressive looking. Good with a capital G. It’s a good old Gordon recipe, taken…
ON THE MENU TONIGHT: Beetroot Tarte Tatin with rocket and goats cheese; Roast hake with winter ratatouille, lemon beurre blanc and fondant potato; Choca-Mocha pots This one was just yum with a capital Y. The flavours were superb together, and it was all relatively simple to do. The only thing I have yet to test…

God bless Gordon. This is my new mantra. Gordon of the Ramsey variety, not the Brown one. Following much angst, persuasion and foot stamping, I am (eventually) the proud owner of Gordon’s Ultimate Cookery Course.

It’s been a while since I did a #FoodyFriday, due to extenuating circumstances.

So, #FoodyFriday rolls around once more. This one was not quite how or what I’d planned, but we got there in the end. Originally it was intended to be smoked salmon mousse, some kind of fish & tarte tatin. However, due to snow, plans were changed. I know what you’re thinking. We didn’t have snow. …
It’s that time again. Our weekly Date Night Dinner, where I impress my long-suffering husband with yet another marvellous meal from my ever-growing repertoire. However, this week was a shared effort. I did the starter and dessert and AlphaMale created his showpiece supper of Moules Marinieres. Genius on my behalf as about 90 percent of…
This is my new regular #FoodyFriday spot, where I shall bore you all to death with our regular Date Night Dinner a Deux feasts. Every week I have been so busy taking photos of the food I have served that we have eaten lukewarm meals, due to my ineptitude with a camera. So I decided…
