Three pea salad with fresh mint and roasted hazelnuts

July 12, 2018Leave a comment

I made this the other night to accompany some (home-cured) duck prosciutto. The duck was good but the salad took all the praise, so I thought I’d blog it in its own right. Continue reading →

Whole Sea Bream with Rocket, Rosemary and Garlic Pesto

May 3, 2018April 4, 20191 Comment

I needed an uber-simple but ultra-healthy supper last night. Hubby was going to yoga (very impressive) and I was very tired. Fish and broccoli was the plan, but how to make it delicious as well as speedy?  Here’s what I did: Continue reading →

Cauliflower, lentil and halloumi salad

April 16, 2018June 29, 2018Leave a comment

This was one of those accidental salads that worked so well I felt duty bound to write it down and share it with you. Therefore, apologies for the photo because, as so often happens, it wasn’t until it was half-eaten that I realised how good it was! Continue reading →

Pan-fried skate with capers and cod roe

January 25, 2018June 25, 2018Leave a comment

My fishbox arrived again today with two fresh skate wings inside – and a huge piece of cod roe; I really look forward to the day each month when we will have the freshest fish for supper. This evening’s dish was a tad experimental but it got rave reviews from my husband, who is always a willing guinea pig. Here’s how it all came together. Continue reading →

Celeriac and Apple Remoulade with Smoked Mackerel

December 8, 2017June 25, 2018Leave a comment

This recipe works just as well for a winter starter as it does for a healthy packed lunch; the quantities in the recipe mean there’s plenty for both. Continue reading →

Seasonal spiced apple compote

November 17, 2017September 27, 2020Leave a comment

I’m a great believer that the proverbs and old wives’ tales that we learned from our grandparents were based in ancient wisdom that we ignore at our peril. So I wasn’t surprised to learn, during my functional medicine training earlier this year, that a daily portion of stewed apples can work miracles in just a few days to support and restore a healthy microbial population in the gut.

Halloumi, avocado and strawberry salad

June 13, 2017June 25, 20182 Comments

Inspired by a recent visit to Juliet’s (my favourite Tunbridge Wells café) this salad is the perfect accompaniment to grilled or barbecued meats; tonight it is going to sidle up to a grilled lamb chop from Speaight’s butcher. To me, supper doesn’t get any better than this! However, this salad would also make a delicious and nutritious lunch. Hope you like it as much as we did!

Spicy Summer Slaw

May 29, 2017June 25, 2018Leave a comment

Thanks to the unpredictable contents of my Riverford box, I’m always looking for new ways to combine vegetable in a healthy and delicious way. This was yesterday’s experiment which really tickled my tastebuds in a way that made it an instant share.

Spicy Mexican Bean and Green Salad

May 26, 2017June 25, 2018Leave a comment

Although this recipe is a little higher in carbs than I normally include  (containing roughly 10g carbs per 100g) a  small portion (c.150g) in an otherwise low carb meal should not threaten ketosis once you are keto-adapted.

Goat’s Cheese and Asparagus Crustless Quiche

May 19, 2017April 4, 2019Leave a comment

To me, May is the most beautiful month; the garden is full of colour and life, summer is still waiting to happen. The new season’s asparagus is an added bonus. You can add it to soups and salads, or simply eat on it’s own with a little butter and black pepper, or a poached egg.
