25.01.2022 Homemade frozen veges thanks to Frankly Nourished

24.01.2022 If you’re finding yourself relishing more time in the kitchen, now is your moment to sourdough. It’s easier than you probably think, the main thing it needs is time. Quick and fast has its place but there’s nothing like the luxury of food prepared with plenty of time to develop in taste and nourishment. Today I made 3 loaves - plain white, fruit and a seeded sourdough. Beg or barter some starter and you’re on your way.

21.01.2022 After a Covid18 Zoom party, pies are the go for dinner. Filling - freezer stash of lamb stew Pastry - made with lard makes it so delicious and flaky For 7 individual pies whiz up... 110g butter 110g lard ( or can use all butter if no pig fat to hand) 500g plain flour 1/2 tsp salt Add 1 cup water, or enough to make mixture come together Form into rough brick shape, cover and put in fridge 1/2 hour before rolling out into tasty pie coverings. Make the pies - I use a pie maker. Wake up the snoring newly minted 18yo

20.01.2022 We’re attempting to make ravioli. The filling is leftover roast lamb (found in the freezer) whizzed up with onion, mint and rosemary. The roast tomato sauce was made a couple of weeks ago when I had oodles of saucing tomatoes. Slow roast in oven with garlic onion and olive oil then blitz to preferred smoothness, or chunkiness! I’ll post a photo of the finished product.

14.01.2022 For some reason Greek Easter bread has become our biggest Easter tradition. Even more memorable than hot cross buns or Easter eggs - which usually are still kicking around in September. Usually we dye and decorate the hard boiled eggs on Easter Saturday. Yesterday it didn't happen. You'd think we would have all the time in the world but the kids are using it to have all night movie marathons. I'll dye the eggs while the bread is rising and the kids on the couch are definitely... not. If you don't have mahlepi in your lockdown pantry or like me have to google every year to see what it is (!) substitute with combination of star anise, cardamom, fennel seeds.

13.01.2022 Chicken meets dog And all is well! #stayathome #easywithanimals #dogsdayout #toomanybroodychooks

10.01.2022 Usually the autumn vege planting is rushed. Rushed into one afternoon between school and work and hockey and netball and all the normal things. Not this year. This year there’s been time to prepare the beds, to update the retic, to let the chooks have a few glorious days scratching out slaters. Time. Isn’t it glorious? I don’t know what the world will be like when these veges are ready to eat but I do know this vege patch will be a reminder. A reminder to me to slow down, to take time, to make time to do the things I love. To do more of what makes me happy.

09.01.2022 And voila Or whatever the Italian is Lamb &rosemary ravioli

09.01.2022 If you can’t visit a Moroccan spice market you can certainly make your own at home. Freshly ground spices add a burst of flavour unlike anything you’ll buy. Use a Thermomix, food processor or keep the kids occupied with a mortar and pestle.

08.01.2022 Who's for scones and a cuppa? Thanks Muriel x

03.01.2022 This one waits for breakfast in bed every morning before starting her day. How’s your iso feeding regime going?
