Any fruit will do – the point really is the crumble topping. We really missed crumble at the beginning of being gluten free and now we don’t. (I am making it sound as if we eat this all the time – it is an occasional treat!) Only Olivia and I are gluten free and the …
I don’t know about you, but I find that sometimes I think we will have this or that for lunch and then something else is eaten and I end up with unintentional leftovers. Well here I had cold baked potatoes looking wrinkled and lonely and perhaps not fit for much … until … I …
This is so similar to the Rhubarb pie that it is hardly worth posting, but the reason I am is that it is a pastry-less version which my daughter prefers. She is strictly gluten free so all of these are with her in mind, and me as I think I am where she gets it …
We had this in North Carolina for the wedding brunch of a cousin. This is not exactly it, but my take on what we had. It is comforting, filling and delicious.
Ingredients
1 cup grits
1 clove garlic, minced
1 tsp salt
4 cups boiling or very hot water
2 cups grated cheddar cheese
100g butter
200ml milk
Olive oil
1 large bag raw …
When I wrote Afternoon Tea I included a recipe for Spiced Tea Syrup on page 54 (just in case you have a copy!), fashionable in the Edwardian Era to both sweeten and flavour. Being out of the habit, despite writing this book, a jar has been sitting by the kettle for quite some time and …
My iphone has died and so I have lost the picture of the squid alongside the soup and aioli. This is my last post until the end of the month when we get back from Canada. Have a good rest of August!
This is a traditional recipe, the origins of which are claimed by both the …
We are going on holiday in August and I am determined to use up all we have in the fridge and larder. For some reason I had an awful lot of yoghurt, courtesy of my son who pops all sort into the shopping trolley and by the time we have made it to check-out, I …
or Chudleighs, the derivation of which is unknown. There are also Cornish splits which are larger. I made these for book no.2’s photoshoot which was not done brilliantly, but not bad for an amateur. My brother came in and immediately ate about 3 of these! They are extremely rich, very delicious and a little like …
A couple of weeks ago when lurgy were flying around the school and almost half of the children were off, I proudly said that we had not been ill for at least a year. And then ….. So with my husband and son at home today (it was my turn yesterday), I made soup. I …
Inspired by Camilla A-D, a friend from school, we have had dhal a couple of times in the last two weeks. The first time I used curry powder and the second, spices given to me by Sapna who I met in Borneo a couple of years ago. That was a once in a lifetime holiday …
