It’s blackberry season! I love these little berries and if you have time on your hands to wander among some hedgerows, they are available for free all over the country. I got a lovely gift of delicious homemade blackberry jam and decided I had to make a Blackberry Sponge Cake with it.
Those of you who follow my Facebook or Instagram pages will already be well aware (read – bored of me prattling on about the fact) that I was in London for a month. Hence the lack of blog posts.
Black Pudding, eh? You either love it or hate it. I adore it! There is just something really moreish about it. I have made many versions of black pudding salad but this Warm Black Pudding and Apple Salad is without a doubt my favourite.
Cherry Clafoutis is a dish I’ve been meaning to blog with some time. However, as was said to me on Instagram last night, it’s hard to resist eating the fresh cherries before they get added to the batter!
…take 2! Once again in my over enthusiasm I hit publish instead of save when starting to type up this post. So last night some of you got an email with some lovely pics of my Chocolate Pots, but no text. I clearly can’t contain my excitement when it comes to chocolate recipes!
… with Orange Hollandaise. Asparagus, egg and hollandaise – a classic combination. And it is a classic for a reason, it is such a delicious dish. Add in some bacon or smoked salmon and you have a very impressive starter, light lunch or brunch dish.
I will be forever grateful to Deb Perelman of Smitten Kitchen for coining the phrase ‘everyday cake’. This Rhubarb and Strawberry Cake is for when you just want cake. No fuss, you don’t want to impress anyone, just cake to have with a cuppa.
