Sausage and Egg Rice Parcels

Sausage and Egg Rice Parcels are a deeply delicious breakfast dish. Inspired by my love of lo mai gai this is the closest I can get using regular UK supermarket ingredients.

Pork and Apple Cabbage Parcels

Pork, apple and cabbage combine to make these perfect parcels. It’s impossible to eat just one.

Lentil and Cavolo Nero Stew

Lentil and Cavolo Nero Stew is a deep, tomato broth filled with fantastically comforting textures. Add a protein, like Italian Sausage Meatballs, for a heartier dish.

Slow Baked Fish and Olives

Slow baked fish and olives is a delicious combination of sweet and salty ingredients all served up with fluffy rice. It’s a great way to use frozen fish.

Italian Sausage Meatballs

I love meatballs because it’s a tasty way to bulk out a dish and the kids will devour them. These Italian Sausage Meatballs are tasty and quick to make.

Artichoke, Spinach and Cannellini Bake

Artichoke, Spinach and Cannellini Bake has a great dose of iron, protein and calcium covered in a delicious cheese sauce. My perfect kind of dish.

Crispy Chicken Burger

Crispy Chicken Burgers are a fan favourite in our house. This is my fastest version that has a tasty crunch and tender chicken.

Chicken Seasoning

I regularly make this chicken seasoning because it’s quick, delicious and great for roasted chicken and chicken burgers.

Roasted Apple Sauce

Rather than peeling and coring lots of apples to make apple sauce I will roast a big batch of whole apples then pass them through a clean cloth to make perfectly smooth apple sauce.

Homemade Sushi

Homemade sushi is easier to make than you might expect. I make it about once a month and everyone helps out. Give it a go and you might surprise yourself.
