Recipe from Nigella Express. I love a Nigella ice cream because it’s always so simple, it’s whisking and freezing and enjoying. When it’s a flavour of one of your favourite cocktails too then it’s even better. The fact this has tequila and Triple Sec in it means it doesn’t freeze solid so it’s easier to…

Recipe from Nigellissima. Pasta and Potatoes together in one dish? Yes please! I’ll start with the outcome… Devine! I did as advised and ate this the day after making having been blitzed in a hot oven, and it was wonderful. The pasta crisp at the edges with the cooked potato and creamy-cheesy sauce within is…

Recipe from Simply Nigella. This came at a great time as I had a freezer drawer full of frozen peas due to everyone in the family seeing the same shopping list and buying a kilogram bag each. I love making a soup as the process is so simple, I love using my hand blender and…

Recipe from Simply Nigella. I’m always pleased when I’m able to try new things and this week I was able to use my mandoline for the first time (yes Mum, I was very careful). It allowed for incredibly thin radish and fennel slices, they were almost transparent. Yes I was pleased to try the machinery…

Recipe from Simply Nigella. I know in the photo here these look like creamless profiteroles, they are in fact little cheesy balls of heaven. The cooked texture of these cheese breads reminds me of the dough balls I’ve often enjoyed at Pizza Express. They’re chewy, cheesy and incredibly moreish. This is the kind of recipe…

Recipe from How to be a Domestic Goddess. Once again I have underestimated how much food the recipe actually calls for and how small my pans are in comparison to what’s needed. I had to split the ingredients for this plum sauce in half so I could cook in two pans. Aside from all the…

Recipe from KITCHEN. The second drink in as many weeks, and this one was a delight to create and consume. I always have Prosecco in the house, for you never know when you might have emergency celebrations, and ordered a bottle of Campari to enjoy when a friend was visiting from Spain. Adding a dash…

Recipe from Forever Summer. The timing of this salad so soon after the last one was pretty decent as it allowed me to use up the parsley and lemon I had used in the quinoa salad previously. I also had one chicken breast leftover from another meal in the week so I think this was…

Recipe from At My Table. I like a salad recipe because it shows me there’s more to a salad than throwing leaves, tomatoes, cucumber and whatever colour pepper is going soft in the fridge into a bowl and covering with salad cream. This one took longer than a usual salad would to make as the…

Recipe from Nigella Express. This is another of the Express-and-I-mean-it recipes. Mixing all the ingredients into a dressing and filling the stone-hole of an avocado leads to a tangy, healthy lunch that I’d happily make again and again. This was my first time eating crayfish tails. Bought ready cooked and peeled, ready to eat, these…
