Turkish Chicken Salad

I’ll give you two guesses where we were on holidays this month! I’d never been to Turkey before and spent a week there with friends in a gorgeous town where there were very few tourists. This meant plenty of beautiful local restaurants serving the most amazing traditional food. Heaven. 

Harissa Couscous

Couscous is a wonderfully convenient store cupboard ingredient. In a matter of minutes you can have a delicious accompaniment for a tasty tagine or other meat dish.

Grapefruit Avocado and Feta Salad

I know this recipe is something you’d expect to see during the Summer months. However there are days when it doesn’t matter how cold it is outside, you just want something light and fresh to eat. This normally happens to me after I’ve eaten all the butter and cream that I can get my hands […]

Brussels Sprouts, Beetroot and Pomegranate Salad

If you indulged in last weeks chocolate trifle and feel a little guilty, this salad is the perfect way to ease your mind! It is seasonal, fresh, light but also very tasty!

Cauliflower Chickpea and Pomegranate Salad

Last week I read two recipes that caught my eye and I decided to experiment with them. One was the BBQ Aubergine with Jewelled Rice Salad from Sarit Packer and Itamar Srulovich of Honey and Co on the Financial Times – recipe here (paywall). The other was Cauliflower and Chickpea Salad  from Nigella’s new book […]

Crab and Apple Salad

I was in London recently and as a result of having over indulged a little (a lot!) you got no blog post last week while I was in recovery mode. So this week you get two to make up for it. Lucky you!

Butternut Squash and Chorizo Salad with Harissa and Feta

This salad was born out of left over chorizo after I made a batch of chilli and a sad looking butternut squash that I had bought for a curry I never made!

Grilled Watermelon and Sesame Feta Salad

This is one of my favourite salads. And everytime I make it I wonder why I don’t make it more often! Watermelon and Feta salads are not an original idea. If you’ve never had one I urge you to try it, the combination of sweet melon and salty feta cheese is so refreshing.
