It feels a bit off to be posting a recipe for steak salad on a week where we are all being encouraged to cut our meat consumption. Personally I eat red meat at most once a week and have several meat free days each week. My real meat weakness is bacon, I have to stop […]
I adore Mexican food with it’s bright colours and flavours. It is not too spicy and suits most palates which makes it a real crowd pleaser. In fact, it is my favourite food the morning after an indulgent night. A plate of Huevos Rancheros and I am good as new again. Well, a bit better […]
Whenever I make food like this I can’t help but think of Billy Connolly’s bit where he is talking about Mexican Food and says it’s all the same, just folded differently! Funny and all as that is, I imagine he is picturing Tex Mex food and hugely offending the people of Mexico.

This salad is probably more suited to Summer but the brighter evenings have me hankering after lighter food and fresh flavoured dishes. Don’t worry I’ll probably be back to comfort food next week!

I make some form of a stir-fry about once a week such as this Beef and Orange Stir-Fry. I’m always looking for ways to vary them and try new flavours. I had never even heard of Beef Bulgogi until himself came home one day and told me about a Korean food stand near where he […]
