I call this recipe pumpkin “bread” in the same way that I call my banana bread, “bread”. As in it’s more of a sweet loaf to enjoy with a hot cuppa as opposed to a loaf of bread that you use to make a sandwich. Made using freshly steamed and mashed pumpkin I know a […]
Every recipe that I post on here, we eat. What I mean by this is that most food blogs and food writers cook for “shoots” where their sole purpose is to make the food look good for the camera, using plenty of clever food photography tricks up their sleeves to do so. Think things like […]
I wouldn’t call this a recipe as such, more like just a suggestion of what to do with a sweet potato you may happen to find floating around in your fridge. Simply peel it, chopping it into thin slices before frying it in olive oil with some chilli powder, dried oregano and salt and pepper. […]
I can’t get enough of these fully loaded salad plates that I’ve been making for Corks and me lately. Making, more like totally devouring, I should say.

One can only cook spaghetti bolognese so many times. So here’s another way with mince. My girls love these easy and delicious beef kofta’s for something a little different. Anything on a stick seems to be a hit in our house at the moment (thinking back to our honey soy chicken kebabs and Teriyaki salmon […]
I’ve been making this simple chicken dish for my girls for years but have never thought about sharing the recipe – it’s so simple that it doesn’t really need one. You’ll notice that I don’t put exact amounts of ingredients for the sauce – it’s “a bit of this”, “bit of that” kind of number. […]
