My Favourite Recipes To Use Up Leftovers

December 31, 2020 By All That I'm Eating 8 Comments

At the end of the year and the beginning of the next I like to have a big clear out of my fridge, freezer and cupboards. For two reasons. First, and I think this is true for many people in December, there's plenty of leftovers. Second, I like to take stock of what I have ready for the next year. These are the dishes I cook which I come back to again and again: my favourite recipes for using up leftovers. Dried Fruit and Nuts There always seems Read more

Mince Pie Crumble Bars

December 12, 2019 By All That I'm Eating 20 Comments

In my perfect world, a mince pie would be 70% pastry, 30% mincemeat. It's not that I don't like mincemeat I just don't like too much of it. That's where my mince pie crumble bars come in. A thick layer of buttery shortbread, a spiced mincemeat middle and further crumbly shortbread on the top. Let's be honest, it's mostly biscuit with a hint of Christmas. Perfect. Ingredients You will need (for 12 mince pie crumble bars): 300g softened Read more

Christmas Meal Plan

December 2, 2019 By All That I'm Eating 12 Comments

At Christmas there are four things that I like to do: eat, go for walks, play games and watch festive television shows. I do like to plan ahead and this year is no different with my Christmas meal plan. With a plan in place there's no last minute rush to the shops for those forgotten ingredients and no blank looks when someone says "What's for dinner?". With a little bit of careful planning, some batch cooking and a few shortcuts I am looking forward Read more

Mince Pie Fruit Loaf

December 13, 2017 By All That I'm Eating 18 Comments

I love a mince pie, but they have to be just right. I want the pastry to mince filling ratio to be almost 50:50; too much filling and you can forget it. Preferably my mince pies will be warm and covered in (clotted, ideally) cream. However, I can't possibly eat that every single day and I still need my mince pie fix. This is how my Mince Pie Fruit Loaf came about; designed to have all the fruity spiciness from a mince pie but without the pastry and Read more

No Alcohol Pomegranate Mojito

November 30, 2017 By All That I'm Eating 11 Comments

When it comes to adult soft drinks there are some good options but I don't like any that are overly sickly and sweet. Fruit juices can be good but they are a little dull; I'm after something which is a bit snazzy. A drink where there has been a little effort put in. My no alcohol pomegranate mojito is so easy to make and packed full of flavour, the pinks and greens are so lovely together and using tonic rather than lemonade gives this mojito a nice Read more

Marshmallow Rice Krispie Yule Log

December 11, 2016 By All That I'm Eating 17 Comments

I tried making a traditional Yule Log a few years ago. It was somewhat stressful. Apart from the fact that my butter is never warm enough and I always lose patience and mix it up anyway and deal with the consequential sponge that turns up the whole process is fraught with danger. The rolling up, unrolling, spreading of cream, re-rolling and hoping for no cracking then furiously patching it up with ganache, chocolate flying all over the place. It's Read more

Ultimate Hot Chocolate Gifts

December 18, 2015 By All That I'm Eating 11 Comments

I love a good hot chocolate; not too sweet, not too bitter but full of chocolate flavour and I have been working on perfecting my recipe for the ultimate hot chocolate. This recipe is too good not to share, and what nicer way to share it than making some (ever so pretty) make-your-own hot chocolate gifts. You need only four ingredients, a few empty jars, some string, paper and your very neatest handwriting. A word of warning: make sure you make enough Read more

Cranberry and Pistachio Chocolate Truffles

December 16, 2014 By All That I'm Eating 5 Comments

I can find it hard to know what to give people for gifts. When I’m not sure I normally cook or make something for them instead; it’s personal and I quite enjoy doing it. This is the other recipe that I developed for Kenwood (see crumble here) and I think they look a bit like Brussels sprouts if you stand far enough away (and squint). My recipe for Cranberry and Pistachio Chocolate Truffles is really simple and I find I usually have these ingredients Read more

Cranberry and Clementine Crumble

December 12, 2014 By All That I'm Eating 9 Comments

I love cranberries and really try to make the most of them when they are around; they are almost fool proof when it comes to making jams and jellies as they are so full of pectin. This Cranberry and Clementine Crumble is a great way to use cranberries in a different way over the festive period and the addition of Cointreau adds a little something extra. I was asked to come up with a couple of wintry recipes as part of a project with Kenwood. I used Read more

Boozy Hot Chocolate with Nutmeg Marshmallows

December 23, 2013 By All That I'm Eating 12 Comments

Marshmallows have always scared me a little; I thought they were terribly complicated to make and completely not worth the time. As it turns out they take nowhere near as much time or effort as I anticipated and they are so much better than any marshmallow I have had before. So to end my series of festive posts this makes a great winter evening drink. Add a little rum for the adults and a little extra milk for the children, a marshmallow in the mug Read more
