AKA summer in a glass, good times guaranteed! You need a blender for this one, and also (the hardest bit for me) remember to chop up the watermelon and pop it in the freezer a good 4 hours or so ahead of when you want the party to start – then it’s easy peasy and… Continue reading Frozen Watermelon Margarita

Quick flatbreads
The clue really is in the name with this recipe – these are quick flatbreads because there’s no need to prove this particular dough. You pretty much just mix it up, knead it briefly, roll them out, fling them in a frying pan, and they’re ready. There’s a trade off however, being that due to… Continue reading Quick flatbreads

On top of that, it’s difficult to make salted caramel in a smaller quantity,… Continue reading Apple pie with salted caramel
Baguettes
Another Paul Hollywood recipe, because he knows everything there is to know about bread, obvs. I tend to hum along to Fou de Fafa by Flight of the Conchords when making baguettes, or listen to my entire La Belle France playlist that I made a couple of years ago which features classics like Chanson d’Amour,… Continue reading Baguettes

Ingredients 500g strong white bread flour 7g fast action dried yeast 10g… Continue reading Bloomer
Margarita
Sometimes only a Margarita will do on a Friday night, and last night was one of those nights. It’s the end of the summer but the sun is still shining into the evening, and starting the weekend sipping one of these was rather wonderful. Alas the cat didn’t seem to think so. Ingredients Per glass:… Continue reading Margarita
