It’s December! And December is a month where we tend to indulge throughout. Christmas parties, markets and fairs lure us with temptations of sweet and savoury foods. As much as I love all the food in December, I try my best not to over indulge all month, after all I am not getting any younger….

Butternut Squash and Crispy Sage Risotto
It’s the season for warm comforting dishes to get us through these dark cosy months. Butternut squash and pumpkins are a popular choice at this time of year. And this dish can be used with either, because if you’re anything like me you have some pumpkins leftover from Halloween last week. Of course I plan…
Pepperoni and Spicy Honey Pizza
My husband very kindly bought me an Ooni pizza oven for our anniversary this year. He’s very clever as I am not sure who it benefits more. Nevertheless, I was ecstatic. I have seen my friends and family make pizza in their Ooni ovens and I yearned for one ever since. My first pizza story……
Spaghetti Pomodoro
Is there anything more comforting than a bowl of pasta? A bowl of pasta coated in a fragrant tomato sauce topped with parmesan cheese, basil and extra virgin olive oil.

Yes the weather wasn’t great, but we had so much fun catching up with friends and family and attending lots of weddings….
Slow Cooked Lamb Ragu
I’m not sure about you, but I was getting ready for Autumn by getting my cardigans out and secretly thinking about Christmas. And then boom. Summer! Glorious sunshine sent me into a blind panic to find my sunglasses and shorts. It was absolutely beautiful and although brief, I am grateful for the few days of…
Chorizo Arancini
Risotto is one of our common weekday meals, but I always make too much. Always! So instead of just eating it for lunch the next day, I thought I would make arancini. Arancini is risotto shaped into balls, coated in breadcrumbs and then deep fried. But I didn’t want to deep fry mine so I…
