charred eggplant dip with olive oil quinoa crackers

charred eggplant dip with olive oil quinoa crackers

You can go ahead and use this recipe for the olive oil crackers if you like. I put them in my boy's lunchbox and serve them with soup. BUT the charred eggplant dip is gorgeous, more simple to make than you know, and I regularly call this little pairing dinner.

espresso martini bubble tea

espresso martini bubble tea

A bubble-tea-cocktail that’s also a pick-me-up - here’s my modern take on the espresso martini ... maybe not so sophisticated as the original but we all need a bit more fun in our lives right now!

pork ribs with sichuan salt

pork ribs with sichuan salt

Sichuan salt is such a cheery alternative to that cloying and sticky, sweet sauce we often find on pork ribs. Feel free to simplify the marinade with what you have on hand - this version adds to the flavour but what you really need is seasoning, and that spicy salt when you serve it.

chicken salad with spicy sesame dressing

chicken salad with spicy sesame dressing

This is a dish I turn to for a weekly meal plan - it's a recipe the kids love as much as the adults (tweaking the chilli for each of us). I've even done this with leftover roast chicken (thank you Sunday roast), making it an excellent Monday night dinner. It's fresh, light, and a rather excellent start to the week. I tend to use tahini as a dressing for the kids.

Chinese egg custard tarts

Sunday at my place is yum cha day. And when I can’t get to an actual restaurant we turn urgently to this recipe for egg custard tarts.

If you love something savoury for breakfast, then have a go at this light spiced kedgeree. It's rice, salmon, and you know what, add a fried egg if you like.

soft polenta with flathead and pancetta

soft polenta with flathead and pancetta

This soft polenta with flathead and pancetta is the simplest, most comforting weeknight dinner that everyone will love. My kids eat this, and it's one of the meals I put on the weekly rotation often simply because I know it will go down so well.

When preparing the slow-roasted harissa lamb shoulder with sautéed artichokes, I suggest you start a day ahead if you have the time.

pissaladiére

pissaladiére

The pissaladiére is our fail-safe picnic dish, but it’s also a recipe I turn to when a quick but impressive lunch is in order - a classic that you need to try.

raspberry vinegar

raspberry vinegar

Every time I make my own raspberry vinegar I wonder why I've left it so long between batches. I love using it, liberally, and friends and family are always happy to receive a bottle. While we're all isolated, together, it's another way to reach out, to give love somehow.

Spanish chopped salad with tuna and chorizo

For my Spanish chopped salad recipe, all we need is some bright leaves, the chorizo - which adds a gorgeous smoky, salty kick - and a good piece of tuna.
