Padron Peppers are one of my favourite snacks to eat with a beer. These salty, sometimes fiery peppers are ready in minutes and transport me back to the first time I ate them in Barcelona.

Feta, Fig and Cannellini Beans
Feta roasted with tomatoes, cannellini beans and figs is a simply beautiful autumn dish. I plonk the whole dish in the middle of the table then spread the soft, sweet and salty flavours onto warm bread and crackers.
Cauliflower Cheese
Cauliflower Cheese is a stalwart of comfort food. You can serve it with Sunday dinner, gammon steaks or salmon fillets and I’ve been known to eat the leftovers cold straight from the fridge.
Potato and Egg Salad
This potato salad is no meagre side dish, it’s the main event. We had a really good potato haul this year so I’ve been able to make this hearty salad a few times.
Tofu and Carrot Noodles
Tofu and Carrot Noodles is such a versatile dish. It’s a great weeknight meal or serve it as a side dish for 4 people. It’s good hot or cold and it’s simply delicious.
Dinosaur Egg Rolls
By telling Henry that I make these Dinosaur Egg Rolls with eggs I buy directly from Jurassic Park he is quite happy to chomp his way through a good chunk of spinach 😉
Caprese Kebabs
The classic Caprese Salad gets a kebab twist which makes it a brilliant side dish for BBQs and serving lots of guests. Everyone gets the perfect portion size of cheese and tomatoes.
Leek Risotto and Summer Veg
You can’t rush risotto but it’s worth the wait. I make this recipe at the weekends when I can take my time and make the best of the early produce from the garden. It’s as tasty as it is beautiful.
Flat Salad
This is my go-to family salad because it’s plentiful and delicious. You can choose your own ingredients as long as everything is sliced and can be layered for this flat salad.
Beetroot “Muffin” Burgers
I have had the most wonderful breakthrough in my search for a plant-based burger. You probably already own the one piece of kit necessary to cook a juicy, plant-based burger… a muffin tray.
