I have been asked to write an article on how I go about my business using up all of my ingredients. In todays world, waste is a real crime and we all do it from time to time, but with a little forethought we can all help use up even […]

Lomo Saltado
Lomo saltado, if you didn’t already know, is a Peruvian dish. It is generally served as a beef stir fry with onions, peppers etc. To change it around, I basically put all of the stir fry ingredients into a marinade. Marinaded the beef for a few hours and served it […]
Plaice with a Lemon Sabayon and Brown Shrimp Sauce
Firstly, apologies for the delay in putting up a new post. Work has been manic( I almost wasn’t going to be here today either, a transatlantic rescue mission didn’t come about at the last minute.) including having to do homework three nights on the bounce last week. I think […]

Sumac Crusted Cod, Imam Bayildi and a Raisin Puree.

Spice Crusted Lamb Loin, Indian Potatoes and a Moilee-Tomato Sauce.
I was just discussing with my wife that you never find beef dishes with Indian Spices. I know because of religious origins, the cow being a sacred animal and all, but I still eat it so why not use it with some Indian spicing. It’s an earthy enough meat that […]
