Meringues are notoriously difficult to master, getting the perfect crispy exterior and a gooey melt in the mouth interior is something of a feat. Remove the eggs from the mix and you really do have a challenge on your hands. With the discovery of aquafaba as an egg substitute, vegan meringues were back on the [...]
This chocolate tart is the perfect indulgent treat to serve at a dinner party, as it is particularly fancy but only takes 25 mins to whip together. Olive oil and chocolate work really well together, especially with a high quality one like Fino. The slight peppery bitterness of the oil balances out the sweet rich [...]
Celeriac is an underrated veg that when cooked develops a soft, creamy texture and soaks up a ton of flavour.

Serves 2 Ingredients: 1/2 Celeriac40g [...]

Soft and squidgy on the inside with chunks of vegan [...]
I am a sucker for a good stew in the Autumn/Winter, especially if it comes with dumplings. They are nostalgic, fluffy, crisp on the top and slightly soggy on the bottom, balls of deliciousness. These dumplings have a shed load of dill added to them to add a little bit of flavour and complement the [...]
Autumn has well and truly set in with rainy days and chilly evenings, however it has bought us squash season! Butternut squash can be found in abundance in the supermarket at the moment, making it the perfect center piece of your meal. Served with a rich garlicky tomato sauce, chilli flakes and a dill and [...]
These burger buns are made using an enriched dough, making them soft, fluffy and delicious. They take a bit of time and an ounce of effort to make but the results are well worth it for a warm bun straight out of the oven in which to put your burger. Although this recipe makes two [...]
Potato wedges, chips, fries...whatever you want to call them they are always a winner. I prefer mine to be crispy on the outside but still soft in the middle for that perfect potato wedge goodness.
