Asparagus Mimosa with Crispy Pancetta

This zingy asparagus dish is the roast of the town! I tend to find that asparagus works best when the dishes are straightforward and uncomplicated. Here, I simply bake it, then give it a little something extra with a dressing of lemon, shallots and Dijon mustard.

Happy Hot Dogs with Oh Yeah Yum Slaw

Don’t they make you a squidge more happy just looking at them! They are so fun to serve up for a relaxed supper. Grill them up on the bbq if it’s sunny outside. It’s definitely worth going to the extra mile and buying brioche buns (they freeze really well do) for the soft buttery bun. The Oh Yeah Yum Slaw is fantastic with tonnes of things too! –

Steak Au Poivre

Tender, marbled sirloin in a creamy, spicy sauce. This is a classic grilled steak with a peppered sauce and sea salt roasties. Steak can seem simple, but it’s all in the shopping.

Tofu Pad Thai

Pad Thai is definitely become a food cult at the street food market scene, and there are so many reasons why. It’s utterly delicious and satisfying in both flavour and comfort hitting. It’s both fresh and vibrant as well as hearty and warming. Which makesit a brilliant mid-week fast track to supper. I am using a vegan option Tofu, which absorbs all the delicious flavours of spices, herbs and tangy soya and fish sauces, but you can use prawns, chicken or beef too.

Nutty Chicken

Delicious chargrilled pieces of chicken, coated in an addictive peanut sauce that takes just five minutes to make in a frying pan! I love serving this with coconut rice as it partners so well with the peanut flavours. Lots of alternatives to the chicken too.

Easy Fast Chicken Curry

This is a super-fast and simple way to make a delicious curry. I am using leftover roast chicken, but of course you can use raw chicken (just cook it off first), beef, pork, prawns or make it vegetarian by using chickpeas or a mix of pulses. You could also add in a handful of frozen peas, that will add a lovely sweetness to it.

My Favourite Way to Roast Chicken

We all have our own favourite ways to roast chicken and are always so curious to see if there are any tips to make it that bit better. My top tip in this recipe is to spoon the flavoured butter up underneath the skin of the chicken breast – it transforms the flavour and moistness of the chicken. Serve with honey-roasted carrots and parsnips, mashed potato, gravy and mustard for a traditional chicken feast.
