Recently we went on holiday to Wales for a week by the sea. We managed to get a spider crab from the local fishmonger which had been picked up from the fishing village we were staying in that morning (you don’t get much fresher than that). Neither of us had a clue of what to [...]

At the moment I’m on a bit of a fish-fest and am trying to introduce more fish into my diet. As such we’ve got pretty experimental with some of the recipes we’re trying out at home. This is an alternative take on mackerel. This takes a long time to cook, about three and a half [...]

I stumbled across this recipe whilst having an “I don’t know what cook tonight” panic in the middle of Sainsbury’s. A real gem of a recipe, I can’t wait to cook it again. We ate it with potato rosti however for a lighter dish you could just have more salad and miss the potatoes altogether. [...]

For me, a Jamie Oliver recipe simply isn’t a Jamie Oliver recipe without a few key ingredients – chilli, garlic lemon or lime (or both!) and a bit of coriander – and this is definitely one of those recipes. I cooked it for the first time a couple of weeks ago but will definitely do [...]

I think that you know a good recipe when you cook it time and time again – this is certainly one of those! Originally from Jamie’s 30 minute meals, this dish is meant to be “Tasty Crusted Cod” however in the name of sustainability (and cost) when it comes to buying fish we always use [...]
