This is a recipe I made way back in August after being given a big bunch of broad bean leaves – I didn’t even know they were edible. It’s a nice, simple, wholesome dinner recipe, good for Boxing Day, when…

Recipe: Cauliflower, Carrot, Crouton and Beetroot Thing of Great Yumminess (Vegan!!)
As you might have discerned, I have no idea what to call this recipe. It’s sort of technically a main course salad, though a salad with absolutely nothing green in it doesn’t seem quite salad-y to me. I know that…
Recipe: Lamb and Chickpea Stew with Tomato, Lemon, Chilli and Oregano
I keep popping my head up for air and then making big promises of a return to regular blogging. And then I get swallowed up by work again, or come down with the plague, or both, and I disappear underwater…
Recipe: Arden Forest Salad

Recipe: Quick Cauliflower Soup with Chipotle Chilli and Roast Garlic
This was one of those recipes that could have gone either way. Basically, I just chucked some stuff in a pot, and then later in a blender, and called it soup. But there was no way of knowing whether it…
Living Below the Line: Penne with Spicy Tomato, Cauliflower and Chickpea Sauce
Look! I actually managed to create something that tasted good! It’s amazing how much better food tastes when you manage to avoid the ubiquitous frozen vegetables (note to self: cheap frozen vegetables have absolutely no taste and should be used…
