Pork braised in soy with roasted garlic honey
What is growing in your garden? I love edible plants in mine but I also love when my neighbours have edible plants in their gardens and it is even better when we can share and exchange. One of my neighbours has a glut of basil and offered me some. I have a basil plant but … Continue reading
Cherry Salsa
I was reading Chef Mimi’s blog and saw an interesting recipe for cherry salsa. I have never thought of using cherries for a salsa and was intrigued. It seems that every time I bought cherries they never made it home as I couldn’t resist eating them straight away, or they found their way into a … Continue reading
Lunch at The Dog
The thing about karma is that you never know when it will intervene with your life. Last week arrived with challenges, nothing major but it was just niggling little things that went wrong and at the end of the week I felt a bit down. I like to keep a positive mind so I thought … Continue reading
A day out at Dungeness
The summer was elusive for a long time, it seemed all of Europe and most of the UK had a heatwave whilst we had cold, northerly winds sweeping over us. Then one morning we woke up and it was hot, summer arrived just like that! The weather has been so lovely ever since and I … Continue reading
Pasta in minutes!
Do you have a favorite pasta shape? I know different shapes are great for different sauces but I have to admit I love capellini, angel hair pasta. It is deliciously thin and it cooks in four minutes! I have used it in many recipes but this is my favorite and I wanted to share it … Continue reading

Halibut and delicious culatello ham

This salumi comes from the Parma region and it is only made in Lombardy and Emilia Romagna, Italy. The flavor is delicate yet distinct. My first instinct was to boil some angel hair pasta and … Continue reading
Are you game? Pigeon & Cauliflower
I can’t believe how fast time flies. A friend asked me the other day how long I have had my market stall and I said three years. She gave me a look of doubt and thinking about it it must have been 5+ years now! Oops, how did that happen? I am still so happy … Continue reading
Sometimes it has to be cake!
Sometimes when I read a recipe I can almost taste it and I know I have to try it. What was remarkable this time is that it was a cake. I almost never bake but as soon as I read the recpie I knew I just had to make it! I think it makes a … Continue reading
Pancetta & nasturtium wrapped hake
Each week I do a menu for home delivery or you can pick it up at the market. I do a different menu every week and this week I did fishcakes. I spoke to my friend Darren who is a fishmonger and he suggested that I use hake. Normally I would go to cod but … Continue reading
