I’ve been intrigued by Greek Spanakopita for a long time. Well, any excuse to eat more cheese! I’ve never loved any of the versions that I’ve tried though. I then saw Georgina Hayden make this Cheese Courgette and Honey Pie on Saturday Kitchen and I thought it looked delicious. I’ve been playing around with variations since […]
It has been a while since I posted a sweet recipe. I wouldn’t want to give a false impression here, I don’t have a particularly sweet tooth but still find myself making desserts regularly. My oven is a bit temperamental so I try to not use it too much, even though I am making this […]
I saw a lot of talk online earlier this year about the Roasting Tin series of cookbooks by Rukmini Iyer. After lifting my self-imposed ban on buying cookbooks I eventually ordered The Quick Roasting Tin. My only regret was that I didn’t order it sooner! It is a fab book and I can’t wait for […]

I know it’s unusual to post a salad recipe at this time of year. Normally I’m sharing recipes for comfort dinners or cake but for some reason I’ve been eating a lot of fresh light meals lately. That’s not a bad thing, there has been plenty of indulgent food on my table too!
The first time I heard of Chicken Piccata was a few years ago watching Ina Garten on Barefoot Contessa. She makes everything look so simple and delicious. I have been playing around with recipes for it ever since. It is one of those dishes that can be on the table in under 30 minutes, […]
