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!

Chinese beef one-pot with pak choi

I can also highly recommend this recipe... http://www.bbcgoodfood.com/recipes/9646/chinesestyle-braised-beef-onepot a friend sent me the link on Facebook ages ago and Nick made it for dinner last night.

After 2 hours of cooking the beef is really tender and melt in your mouth, and the whole house takes on that wonderful aromatic five-spice fug that you get in Chinese restaurants- a winter warmer if ever i had one.
