Kasbah Grill – Cotham Hill

Twitter followers of mine will regularly see me bemoan the lack of good takeaway lunch options on my part of Whiteladies Road. Sure, i could have a burger or a steak or even something from the vegan food truck but it all seems a bit too much faff and i, for one am not a fan of …

Ooodles of noodles – Peanut and lime noodles!

To continue my peanutty theme of late and to stretch the noodle madness out a bit further from my previous review i bashed out a really simple recipe for homemade peanut and lime noodles last night for lunches.

Chicken Katsu – Storecupboard edition.

I adore chicken katsu, not the curry, i have never liked the chip shop style curry sauce that you often find served under the guise of katsu curry but love the sweet, tangy oil slick like sauce soaked up by crispy crumb, succulent meat and well cooked rice that you get with a good, plain …

Here is a place i find myself a lot. I am invited to BBQ after BBQ and am asked to bring some food and something to drink...the panic sets in. I check the bank balance, not much there, check the fridge, freezer, store cupboard and desperately rack my brains for something i can take that …

Jamie Olivers fresh and punchy peri peri chicken

I LOVE this recipe. It's my fail safe "I want to impress you but i don't have the time to make an effort" dish and almost tastes better than Nandos (I only say nearly because A) I don't want to be lynched and B) Nandos will bring food to my table i didn't have to …
