… Tomato, Basil & Creamy Curd Salad    I spent all day on Saturday gardening in my house that I rent out which is between tenants at the moment.  I have had help from my brother and Gavin so it only seems right that I cook them dinner again tonight.  After last night’s steak, a … Continue reading »

… Smoky Baked Beans & Collard Greens   It’s felt a bit weird. I haven’t cooked a 15 Minute Meal for two days. This wasn’t really intended. Well it was on Wednesday but not on Thursday.  For no particular reason I had chips and spent my evening doing ironing rather than cooking for people. Which … Continue reading »

… Miso Noodles & Crunchy Veg   It didn’t want to cook this one. There are a small handful of meals I’m not excited about cooking. There is one that I positively don’t want to cook. It is this one. It’s not the ingredients (I like them all … all of them). It’s the photograph. The … Continue reading »

… Charred Avo & Popcorn Beans      I fancied something quick tonight.  Now I know that is a stupid thing to say because all these meals are quick.  Most of the ones I have done have been in or around the fifteen minute mark with only two over twenty minutes.  Even twenty minutes or … Continue reading »

… Stilton, Apple & Walnut Croutes   It’s dark and cold and rainy.  When it’s dark and cold and rainy, soup is always good.  When it’s dark and cold and rainy, cheese on toast is always good.  How about both? I am sill in Bath.  It’s been a nice day of church, and then out for … Continue reading »

… Sweetened Cottage Cheese I remember very clearly the first time Erin cooked dinner for me.  I had met my match … more than met my match.  Erin is a very, very good cook.  Pieter does not cook much.  But he does make a very, very good breakfast.   Having breakfast made by Pieter is … Continue reading »

  … Mushroom Sauce & Spring Greens So this weekend I’m in Bath.  Bath is one of my favourite places in the world and i’m staying with my friends Pieter and Erin.  Saturday morning was spent in the market with Erin buying the ingredients for the three meals i’m going to cook this weekend.  I … Continue reading »

… Focaccia & Emmental Waldorf Salad    I have been determined to get on with the fish dishes and I did another one tonight.  I had my friend Andrew coming round for dinner.  His wife isn’t too keen on fish and so consequently he doesn’t eat much fish, so I said I would cook some … Continue reading »

… Sagey Chestnut Dumplings     I was quite excited about cooking this one.  It looked like a great winter meal.  I have been saving this for a cold grim day.  Today it was cold and dark and rainy and so it seemed appropriate to cook this meal.  Chestnut dumplings with a robust soup sounds … Continue reading »

… Yorkshire Pud, Beets & Asparagus   There are a handful, a very small handful, of meals in the book that I don’t feel particularly inspired to cook.  This was one.  I’m not really sure why but it just isn’t that exciting to me.  This really isn’t that bad when there are 115 meals to … Continue reading »
