One of my favourite suppers to prepare with fresh crab is these cakes. I like to use about a quarter of dark meat in my crab cakes as it adds sweetness. I use fresh breadcrumbs (not dried!) to bind my crab cakes together. Even though I am from potato land (Ireland) I don’t like potato in my crab cake as the flavour of crab is so delicate that it tends to get lost under the potato. The aioli is gorgeous, as it adds a kick of heat and texture to the overall bite. I serve the whole thing up with a big leafy salad.

This is my favorite way to cook and serve roast chicken during the fall. The tarragon adds a delicious sweet flavor, mixed with the spicy Dijon mustard and aromatic garlic. The risotto is creamy, so there is no need for a sauce. It’s an ideal supper for a cozy evening at home.

I just love a juicy lamb chop! My recipe is a classic, as that’s how I like them best. I always have frozen peas in the freezer and a few potatoes lying around, so it makes this whole dish very easy. If you want to jazz it up a bit, you can add crushed fennel to the lamb chops, or cream up your frozen peas by whizzing them with crème fraîche, lime and coriander. A couple of tips for the lamb chops to keep them juicy – remove them from the fridge 30 minutes before cooking and be careful not to overcook them. They should still be pink on the inside.
