I love Lemon Drizzle Cake. I have tried so many different recipes to find one that I love, and I think I finally have it. This recipe makes a beautiful sugary crust on top, while the cake stays moist and yummy. It’s lemony flavour goes throughout the cake, and is, quite frankly, delicious. The benefit …

Asparagus, Prosciutto & Champagne Risotto
Sometimes the most amazing things happen when you least expect it. This was one of them. I was looking round the kitchen thinking how I had no idea what I was going to make for dinner, when I remembered the asparagus in the freezer from a trip to a pick your own asparagus place with …

Simple Easy Stuffed Courgette / Zucchini Flowers
I love Courgette Flowers (Zucchini Flowers). There’s something about them that just makes me think of long summer days in Italy… maybe because the first time we ate them was in Varazze Italy and a few days later on a long lazy afternoon in Rome. Some years ago we were camping in Switzerland but the …

4 Minute No Bake Lemon/Lime Fridge Cake Recipe
Inspired by a recipe in the Thermomix Owners UK group on Facebook, and blending the idea with one of my favourite deserts, South African Peppermint Crisp Pie, I came up with this idea for a citrus-summer desert that can be made ahead of time – the day before is ideal, but you could technically eat …

Ginger, Garlic, Lemongrass and Pecorino Stuffed Mushrooms
I’ve been having major problems with my gall bladder recently, which is why these pages have been a little like tumbleweed, with nothing going on – I haven’t been able to eat much of anything, so I haven’t really been cooking. Now that I’m able to eat again, I’ve been trying to focus a lot …

Squash and Spinach Soup With Goat’s Cheese And Bacon Recipe
Considering how often I make soup these days, you’d be forgiven for thinking that I actually enjoy it! I’m not really a lover of soup, but with two children, a job and a home to run, it’s certainly an easy to prepare food, and easy to eat. In the Thermomix soup is a 15-minute (non)effort, …

Marrow Or Courgette / Zucchini Soup Recipe
I’m quite fond of courgette (zucchini), lightly fried with anchovy and pine nut, or steamed, or frittered, but it took getting a 3.5kg (7lb7oz) courgette from a friend of mine recently to get me to try courgette soup, and it is without doubt my favourite soup ever, hands down. It is so simple to make …

{Book Review} and Grilled Vegetable Quinoa
Apart from my two pregnancies, I’ve always been a meat eater, but after almost ten years of supermarket meat in the UK my husband and I decided that we would rather reduce the number of times a week that we eat meat, and buy organic meat to eat less often. This has worked exceptionally well …

{Festival Of Food} Kale & Parmesan Summer Salad
I’ve put loads of effort into my garden this year, and to be honest, thus far, it hasn’t really paid off! I’m hoping now that summer’s finally arrived, we may have better luck. It certainly can’t get much worse. That said, the one thing in my garden that’s been glorious, and a steady producer, has …

{Guest} Great Summer Chicken Ceasar Salad
A few weeks ago I was at the Britmums conference, where I attended a food blogging session. One of the comments that came up in that session was that new or uncertain cooks like to have a step by step picture guide of how the recipe should look at every step. As an amateur-home-must-feed-the-children cook, …
