Green Thai curry is absolutely one of my favourite flavours of all the smorgasbord that is Asian cuisine. I’ve made more green chicken curries than I can remember but I wanted to use salmon this time and I wanted to make it a bit lighter. I’ve made a few Thai curry soup type dishes before…

Batch Cooking: Moroccan Chicken Stew
Recently life seems to be getting increasingly busier. I love to meal plan and I love to cook but sometimes it’s just impossible, impractical or I really don’t have the time. When The Boyfriend and I are on different schedules it can also be really difficult cooking for one without wasting ingredients or cooking too…
Thai Turkey Meatball Soup
Today I’d like to introduce you to my new favourite midweek meal. We all love a curry, but I have to confess Thai green curry is my absolute favourite. The combination of those classic flavours of lemon grass and ginger is just so uplifting and refreshing, I feel like I’m eating a bowl full of…
Roast Sweet Potato with Green Beans & Sesame Seeds
We had a real house full last weekend, my sister came home for a visit, The Boyfriend was staying over and my cousin’s two little boys came for a Saturday night sleepover. My Mum made a big batch of lamb koftas for everyone and left the side dishes up to me. With lots of hungry…

This recipe sort of came about by accident one evening when I didn’t really know what to cook, I’d had a long day at work so I really wanted a nice satisfying dinner but at the same time didn’t really want to spend ages cooking. I had a couple of steaks in the fridge so…
Lorraine Pascale’s White Chocolate & Crème Fraîche Mousse with Stem Ginger
I really struggle when it comes to choosing things to make for dessert. I’m a savoury person and I just don’t find it as interesting as putting together a delicious main course or a tasty starter. This weekend I was put in charge of doing the pud for my Mum’s birthday meal and I was…
Ginger Shortbread
For this week’s Sunday Bake I’ve done a ginger shortbread. I don’t know anyone who doesn’t like shortbread and I find it’s particularly good for dunking in tea! This one’s got a bit of a ginger twist. Ingredients 200g unsalted butter 100g caster sugar 260g plain flour 40g cornflour 1tsp ground ginger pinch of salt…
