Tuscan Sausage Ragu

May 30, 2018 By All That I'm Eating 8 Comments

The food in Italy was everything I wanted it to be and Tuscany in particular was filled with incredible locations to eat amazing food. We went to a restaurant in Montepulciano on our first night in Tuscany; it was in an old wine cellar and the food was sensational. I ordered the Tuscan Sausage Ragu and along with a glass of local red wine and Italian hospitality it was such a memorable meal. I wanted to try and recreate the flavours, if not the ambiance, at home and my version of this sausage ragu has been through a few different variations until I’ve reached the recipe below. It’s not exactly the same but it’s wonderfully delicious in its own right. read more

Miso Glazed Aubergine with Pickled Cucumber Salad

May 23, 2018 By All That I'm Eating 10 Comments

I’m not ashamed. I will admit it. I am an aubergine-aholic. Babaganoush, parmigiana, in a curry, moussaka, stirred through pasta there isn’t any meal I don’t love which has aubergines in. This recipe may sound familiar, as I have made something similar before, but this miso glazed aubergine when combined with a quick pickled cucumber salad really is a match made in heaven. Depending on the size of your aubergines this takes around half an hour to make, a little longer if they are large and need more time in the oven. read more

My Top 7 Easy Weeknight Dinners

May 17, 2018 By All That I'm Eating 10 Comments

So I don’t know about you but when it comes to weeknight cooking I am looking for something tasty, easy and quick to cook. I simply don’t have the time or energy to cook something which takes hours, so I don’t. Just because something is quick to cook, doesn’t mean it can’t be balanced or delicious. Below are my top 7 easy weeknight dinners; recipes that I turn to again and again, maybe with a little variation in the ingredients here and there. I class something as ‘quick’ if it takes 30 minutes or less from start to finish; something is ‘easy’ if there’s less than two cooking pans on the go and ‘tasty’, well, you’ll have to be the judge of that. read more

Sticky Chilli Chicken with Avocado Rice Salad

May 11, 2018 By All That I'm Eating 11 Comments

sticky chilli chicken with avocado grapefruit rice salad

I have to admit that I turn to a chicken dinner in some form or other most weeks. Especially as the evenings get lighter and warmer as it’s an easy meal to pull together and so flexible on the ingredients used too. My latest offering, this sticky chilli chicken with avocado rice salad, is full of colour and vibrant flavour and ready in 30 minutes. Trust me on the grapefruit. If you don’t fancy using chicken in this then I think tofu, halloumi or aubergine would be great alternatives.

Chipotle Sweetcorn Hash

April 30, 2018 By All That I'm Eating 10 Comments

sweetcorn and potato has with chipotle and paprika chicken

I love looking in my fridge and cupboards and finding ingredients and flavours to try together. Recently I wanted to try adding chipotle chillies to more than just chilli con carne and I thought it would be worth trying a pinch with sweetcorn. This chipotle sweetcorn hash came out of a mish mash of ingredients I happened to have to hand and the end result was delicious. Sticky, sweet, spicy and moreish I’ll be making this one again soon!

Ingredients

You will need (for two):

  • Knob of butter
  • Rapeseed oil (for cooking)
  • 1 small onion, finely sliced
  • 2 garlic cloves, crushed
  • 1 tsp dried oregano
  • ½ tsp chipotle chilli flakes
  • 1 tsp ground cumin
  • 1 mug frozen sweetcorn
  • 300g potatoes, scrubbed and diced into 1cm cubes
  • Juice ½ lemon
  • 2 chicken breasts
  • 2 tsp paprika
  • Salt and pepper
  • Plain yoghurt
  • Small handful fresh coriander, roughly chopped

Method

Heat the butter and a glug of oil together in a frying pan and add the onions. Fry for around 10 minutes on a medium heat before adding the garlic and all the spices and oregano. Continue to fry for a few more minutes. read more

Pea, Bacon and Sundried Tomato Risotto

April 15, 2018 By All That I'm Eating 11 Comments

forkful of pea and bacon risotto

I love how a recipe evolves over time. Many risottos have been made in my kitchen over the years and I have to say a pea risotto has got to be one of my favourites. This recipe for pea, bacon and sundried tomato risotto is, in my opinion, the very best it can be. Other variations have included chorizo, fried speck, mint, goat’s cheese or spinach but this combination of ingredients gives such a variety and depth of flavour that is hard to beat.

ingredients

You will need (for two people):

  • 1 small onion, finely diced (preferably not a red onion)
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 small garlic clove, crushed
  • 4 sundried tomatoes, finely chopped or sliced
  • 175g risotto rice
  • 500-600ml hot vegetable or chicken stock
  • 1 mug full frozen peas
  • Small knob of butter
  • 4 rashers smoked bacon, chopped
  • Salt and pepper
  • 25g Parmesan cheese, grated

method

Start by adding the oil and onion to a saucepan and frying gently for at least 15 minutes until the onion is softened and not coloured. Add the garlic and sundried tomatoes and continue frying for a few more minutes. read more

Artichoke and Red Pepper Gratin

April 8, 2018 By All That I'm Eating 11 Comments

artichoke and red pepper gratin

It was one of those days where I wanted something simple but interesting. A dish which would take a few minutes to make and take plenty of time to enjoy eating it. I tried something similar to this artichoke and red pepper gratin when in France last year and have wanted to have a go at making it myself for ages. It’s a perfect recipe for a rainy Sunday afternoon and although made from a few simple ingredients is so much more than the sum of its parts.

Ingredients

You will need (for two greedy people or four less-so-greedy people): read more

Cauliflower and Sundried Tomato Pasta

January 31, 2018 By All That I'm Eating 15 Comments

ingredients for cauliflower pasta

I always think cauliflower is at its very best when served with cheese. As much as I think this is still true I have been really enjoying roasting and frying it lately and this cauliflower and sundried tomato pasta is my current favourite way to eat cauliflower. Cheap to make, vegan, delicious and so fast to cook; we’re talking 15 minutes from fridge to table. If only all weeknight cooking could be like this!

Ingredients

You will need (for four servings):

  • 300g pasta £0.30
  • 1 small romanesco (or other) cauliflower, chopped into small florets £1.50
  • 6 sundried tomatoes, finely chopped £0.30
  • 2 small garlic cloves, crushed £0.10
  • 3 tbsp extra virgin olive oil £0.15
  • Pinch saffron £0.50
  • Salt and pepper £0.02

Total £2.87

Method

You’ll need a pan full of boiling water with a steamer to go on top. It’s no problem if you don’t have a steamer; you’ll just need an extra pan of boiling water for the cauliflower. read more

Five Things to Batch Cook

January 7, 2018 By All That I'm Eating 9 Comments

Each week I try to include something on my meal plans that I can make extra portions of to keep in the freezer. Sometimes they are complete meals, like a cottage pie or soup; and sometimes they are parts of meals, like a curry sauce or pizza base. If it takes a bit of effort or time to make or lends itself easily to be scaled up then I am all for it. This year I am trying to batch cook wherever I can and pile the freezer up with proper homecooked food; meals or sauces that I can grab quickly to make my weeknight cooking even easier. These are the dishes that I find work really well when cooked in a big batch; I usually have at least two of these in the freezer at any one time! read more

Harissa Roasted Squash and Red Rice

November 7, 2017 By All That I'm Eating 7 Comments

Sometimes things look tastier than they are and I often find that the reverse is also true. This harissa roasted squash and red rice looks ok, if slightly on the orange side, but trust me when I say it is delicious. Full of colour and flavour, the slight spiciness from the harissa works wonders with the sweet butternut squash. Red rice does take longer to cook than white rice but its nutty wholesomeness is well worth the wait. Bung this oven, sit back and get ready for a taste of autumn; it’s ready faster than you’d think. read more
