Although I often think of salmon as a summer dish, this beautiful baked salmon fillet is great all year round. It’s the perfect dish to serve when entertaining guests, as it makes a pretty spectacular centre piece! Baked in the oven with a delicious medley of Mediterranean ingredients, it’s packed full of colour and flavour….
If you’ve followed my blog for a while, you’ll know there’s nothing I like more than whipping up a curry for dinner. Whilst we’ve made many variations over the years (you can find them all here), we haven’t made too many dahls before. And yet we always love to order a dahl when eating out….
I made this recipe a little while ago, and it was such a hit on Instagram with my followers, and it tasted so good in person, that I’ve since made it again. I originally found a similar recipe whilst browsing Pinterest. Which tends to be where I get most of my recipe inspiration from these…

Spaghetti alla Puttanesca (otherwise known as the dish of Italian prostitutes), is an Italian pasta dish, invented in Naples in the 1960s. It’s thought that prostitutes would make this simple dish because it was quick and cheap! It includes many cupboard ingredients, that most Italians would have at home, and can be rustled up in…
We originally made this recipe after receiving one similar in a Gousto box. We had signed up to their subscription service to try new recipes, as we’d found we were often making the same dishes each week. We were lacking culinary inspiration! We have our beloved go-to curry recipe, that we make large batches of…
I was very kindly gifted this Kitchenaid food processor by the lovely team at AO.com and the first recipe I decided to make with it, was a homemade pesto. I’ve always knew that a basic pesto recipe was very simple to make, but I’ve never actually tried my hand at it. The Kitchenaid food processor…
I made this delicious Moroccan chickpea bowl a little while ago, at the weekend, when I first spotted the recipe on Pinterest. It was super quick and easy to make, and I’ve been promising to share the recipe ever since – better late than never! If you fancy something a little different for lunch, something…
I shared a couple of photos of this recipe on my Instagram Story the other week, but I was so happy with how it turned out, that I wanted to share the full recipe on my blog too. We hadn’t made a Thai Green Curry for ages. I’m not sure where the inspiration came from…
Having shared a brownie recipe before, I wasn’t sure whether I should share another. But these Easter inspired brownies came out so well, that I couldn’t not. I made these this week for a charity bake sale at work. Using my classic basic recipe, that I use to make all of my brownies, I added…
Pasta dishes, and Italian cuisine in general, are one of my favourite foods. I’ve tried my hand at making my own pasta, and cooking up a variety of fresh and packet pasta throughout the seasons. Whether it’s a spicy tomato ragu or a light lemon and olive oil dressing, pasta can be so versatile and…
