Sundried tomatoes, red peppers, and coriander quesadilla

Sundried tomatoes, red peppers, and coriander quesadilla

Quesadillas are a satisfyingly simple dish. To simplify down – and REALLY simplify down, what they can be described as; they are a Mexican version of grilled cheese. They are so much more than that, the tortilla crisps up really nicely, and does not require […]

Spiced cranberry sauce and baked apples

Spiced cranberry sauce and baked apples

I am not a fan of cranberry sauce, nor apple sauce. I find the sauces mix weird with gravy for an odd flavour and texture that doesn’t really work. This sauce is more of a side-dish, and won’t need additional gravy. The flavours compliment a […]

8 Vegetarian Alternatives to Stock Cubes

Flavour, flavour makes the world go round and there is absolutely no excuse not to have it.  I have heard numerous arguments from people who are carnivores or omnivores that there is no point going vegetarian, or that they couldn’t go vegetarian, because they couldn’t […]

Spinach and Broccoli Curry Recipe

Spinach and Broccoli Curry Recipe

This recipe came about from basically an experiment of “can I cook a curry?” but it has actually become something that is not technically a curry.  I have also come to realise that the whole country of India has missed a trick not cooking with […]

Tomato soup with toasted garlic recipe

Tomato soup with toasted garlic recipe

I am a fussy eater when it comes to Tomato soup.  For a very long time I hated it.  I hate the smooth texture of it, I felt that it was just warm tomato juice and I didn’t like that either. It was an emotional […]
