Earl Grey Gin Cocktail

May 3, 2015 By All That I'm Eating 12 Comments

I like tea and I like gin. I particularly like earl grey and gin based cocktails so I thought it was about time that I got creative with my cocktail shaker and tried these two tastes together. Not for my own benefit of course, all in the name of experimenting. Whenever I make a cocktail I am always amazed at how the slight slip of a hand can affect the end taste of the drink; too sweet, too acidic, too much alcohol. Then again, you can add a bit more Read more

Basil Lime and Lemonade

August 21, 2014 By All That I'm Eating Leave a Comment

If I had to choose I reckon I would choose a lime over a lemon anytime. They just seem a bit more special somehow. I've seen plenty of recipes for homemade lemonade but not that many for homemade limeade. My basil lemonade with lime is such a refreshing summer drink. I actually ended up using a mixture of lemon and lime juice to make this, mostly because I ran out of limes. If you give your limes a quick blast in the microwave before squeezing them Read more

Elderflower and Blackcurrant Gin and Tonic

August 8, 2014 By All That I'm Eating Leave a Comment

My idea of a perfect evening when it's raining is to eat something filling then settle down to watch a film (preferably a funny one). On a sunny evening however I always try to be outside; we've been spoilt for sunny evenings recently. Sitting in the garden watching the world go by and the sun go down is improved if you accompany it with a refreshing home made drink. My homemade elderflower cordial has made plenty of appearances this year and this Read more

Elderflower and Lemon Ice Lollies

July 9, 2014 By All That I'm Eating 13 Comments

We've been so lucky with the weather recently, fingers crossed it continues! Sat outside in the sun on a lovely day there's nothing quite as refreshing as an ice lolly; especially one you can slurp enthusiastically at being ever so proud that you've made it yourself. My elderflower and lemon ice lollies are subtly flavoured and just the thing to enjoy on a summer day. I find that adding cordial to an ice lolly inevitably results in much stronger concentrations Read more

Homemade Elderflower Cordial

June 25, 2014 By All That I'm Eating 17 Comments

If you've been reading my blog over the years you'll know I love anything elderflower. This year I was invited to go foraging in the grounds at Audley Inglewood, home to restaurant The Walmesley, and to knock up a batch of homemade elderflower cordial with their head chef Gert Pienaar. It was great to go out to the fields, pick the elderflowers and have a good old chat about food at the same time. I've not made elderflower cordial before; syrup and Read more

Spring Carrots with Crème Fraîche and Herbs

June 8, 2014 By All That I'm Eating 12 Comments

Carrots seem to be in my fridge no matter what time of year it is. Earlier in the year and around this time they are skinny spring carrots bought or delivered with their huge green fronds still attached. In the autumn and winter months they are the sturdier, larger carrots which are essential for roasting, stewing and making into a hot soup. I do sometimes find myself at a loss for what to do with spring carrots; other than nibbling on them as they Read more

Blackcurrant and Liquorice Lemonade

April 13, 2013 By All That I'm Eating 12 Comments

The next beverage in my adventures with Mr Fitzpatricks cordials is Blackcurrant and Liquorice Lemonade. The smell of this cordial makes me think of old sweet shops. I love blackcurrant; it's my flavour of choice for the last sweet in the bag. Liquorice I'm pretty unfussy about as I don't mind if it's there and I don't mind if it's not. The cordial smells rich, dark and mysterious so I thought it would be an idea to mix it with something sharp and Read more

Lemon and Thyme Roast Chicken and the leftovers

May 15, 2012 By All That I'm Eating 19 Comments

A beautifully roasted chicken is hard to beat; with crispy skin and succulent meat there's nothing quite like it. Having a whole roast chicken is a rare thing for me, indeed this is the first chicken I have roasted in a very long time and I wasn't about to waste a scrap of it. The chicken that was to fulfil my roast chicken dreams was a local, free range, corn fed bird. This post is about my perfect Sunday lunch and making the most of the leftovers.   Lemon Read more

Three ways with Asparagus 1 of 3: with Orange, Lemon Zest and Black Pepper Butter

April 19, 2012 By All That I'm Eating 19 Comments

This weekend I am doing my first proper cookery demo at The Greener Living Show in the New Forest. To make things as easy as possible I am keeping it simple and seasonal. I will be cooking asparagus three different ways to show how one vegetable, if prepared differently, can taste completely different. First and foremost; boiled asparagus. A great way of cooking asparagus but it’s hampered with the lingering fear of over cooking it and ending Read more

Lemon Drizzle Cake

September 9, 2011 By All That I'm Eating 19 Comments

There have been cakes in my past which I tried either when I was too young to appreciate them or they were a mass produced poor version of what is actually a beautiful cake. An example of this is carrot cake. What I thought carrot cake tasted like was nothing compared to when I made one for myself; it wasn't dry it was moist, it wasn't boring it was luscious and the icing is by far my favourite of all icing.  Another cake I had always ignored Read more

  • I ‘made’ this wreath a few years ago now. I say made, I mean I glued some @innocent smoothie hats to a willow wreath. I like that it’s colourful and uses the hats that I otherwise didn’t know what to do with. Apart from keeping dippy eggs warm. #christmaswreath #innocentsmoothiehat #homemadewreath #upcycled #minibobblehats #feelingfestive🎄 #colourfulwreath
  • Little bites of Christmas. Rolling these chocolate truffles in crushed pistachios makes them almost look like sprouts! Dark chocolate mixed with cranberries for a festive treat. Recipe is over on the blog, just search 'truffle'! #truffles #foodgifts #chocolatetruffles #homemadegifts #cranberrychocolate #allthatimeating #decembereats #christmasrecipes #pistachio

  • Isn’t this a fabulous contraption? It’s a little table that would attach to the back of a car seat (before headrests) so one could picnic at will! The cars, garages and everything else at @lakelandmotor was brilliant. Really enjoyed our morning there, cracking café too. #lakelandmotormuseum #newbybridge #lakedistrict #museum #motormuseum #uktravel #incarpicnic #vintagecars #allthatimeating
