Who else has been Christmas cooking? There’s been a lot of fudge in my life lately. For someone who had never made fudge before, the whizzy machine has made it a little too easy. I’m having to get it into cellophane bags as quickly as possible to minimise fudge ‘sampling’. I’ve been using Thermoblitz recipe for […]
Zucchini/Courgette. I’m getting so muddled up about what names I am meant to use since moving to the UK. Peppers seems to be sticking but I can’t seem to bring myself to say Courgette or Mange Tout (what’s that all about?). And don’t get me started on onions; I still can’t work out what’s what […]
Have you tried Pumpkin Pie? I remember the first time I tried it, the idea of pumpkin in a pie as a dessert just didn’t sound right but I soon swallowed my words. It’s smooth and creamy with a delicate balance of sweetness and spice, not overly rich and a little too easy to eat. Those […]
Let’s face it, being gluten free can be the pits, especially when it comes to bread. I confess that we often fall back on store bought GF bread, which is choc-full of sugar, but I have the best of intentions at being more organised and making it regularly. Problem is I’ve yet to find a […]
Hummus, Houmous, Hommus, hummous, hommos, humos, or hoummos, however you spell it, is delicious and really quite good for you. It’s cheap to make, keeps for quite a while in the fridge and is so versatile. Use as a dip with crackers or carrot sticks, spread on a wrap, use instead of butter on your sandwich, spread some on your […]
I know this week has been a bit of a dessert bonanza so please forgive me for adding to your calorie count again so soon. But, this could be it, the one you’ve been waiting for. It’s one of my all-time favourites and I finally got around to Thermomix’n it. You can thank me later after you […]
Got a pesky over-ripe banana hanging about taking up valuable fruit-bowl real estate? Use it to whiz up a batch of these divine Banoffee Puddings. From idea to bowl in less than 30 mins. That’s just long enough to get your PJ’s on and make a cup of tea to go with it. It’s banana, […]
It’s Friday which in some places always equals fish for dinner. This reminded me to hurry up and post my new fish recipe! I did promise a delicious new recipe after my less delightful mince post, so here it is. I’m very keen on Asian flavours, particularly Vietnamese as they use a wealth of fresh herbs […]
Vegetarians avert your eyes, look away now, this is all about meat. Well, meat and “collagen”, a polite term for some other bits people prefer not to think about. I know that this post is a bit different to my usual recipe trials, so I promise that it will be followed very soon by a […]
There’s not a whole lot I can say about this dish but I wanted to share it as it has become a family regular. It’s quite simple but very tasty, fresh and healthy. I love Vietnamese food. It’s an ‘all-in-one’ meal, one pot wonder. It uses all the different parts of your whizzy machine but […]
