What's it all about?

I love cooking, and more importantly, eating good food and I set up this blog to share my favourite recipes, links and ideas with my friends and family.

I am a home cook. Not a particularly distinguished or accomplished one, but someone who simply enjoys honest, fresh and delicious food. I don’t enjoy pretentious restaurants and 'over done' dishes- the kind that you are afraid touch to with your fork for fear of ruining them! And for this reason, every recipe you find here will be simple and open to interpretation. I also believe it’s important to put your own stamp on the food you make so please feel free to change things and substitute ingredients as you wish. Enjoy!

Colin's pulled pork chilli- part two

Well, i finally did it. Sunday nights pulled pork became chilli on monday and i must say, i was rather pleased with it! The only ingredient that i couldnt get hold of was the tin of salsa de chipotle (apparently Tesco's in Hemel doesnt stock Discovery foods products either) but it was still tasty and has provided me with two lunches worth of yumminess too.

It was warm and spicy, without being mouth burningly hot, smoky and tomatoey but not overwhelmingly so, and there was just the right amount of kidney beans (some chillis are swamped by the damn things) could this be the perfect chilli recipe...?

For those wishing to recreate it see  http://www.shizzling.com/2010/02/shredded-pork-in-chipotle-chile-salsa-recipe.html
