WELL. What a flipping week! A four day block booking for a luxury expedition company touring Wales with their American clients.

Travelling along the Mon Brecon canal on narrowboats I cooked breakfast, lunch and dinner at different locations as I followed them on their journey. 🗺️

Months of logistical planning, precise specs and high expectations led to 18 hour days, intense pressure and a pop up breakfast station at 7am on the towpath in the rain. 😅

It was a pleasure working alongside for this unique event, which neither of us will forget in a hurry.

Special thanks to Tirion for her incredible hard work and support. And a shoutout to my local suppliers

Enjoyed my demo yesterday at in Cardiff. Samples didn’t last long! 😆 Thank you for having me folks.

I also want to thank for being such a great host. And for the support, as always. The Fusion 5 range did me proud. 👨🏻‍🍳

Yesterday’s wedding for 75 near Manchester. ✅

In 2023 I catered Beth and Adam’s wedding in South Wales, where yesterday’s bride and groom were guests. Three years later they asked me to travel to Stockport to cook for their own special day. So that’s two sets of lovely, happy couples sorted.

Cooking for big numbers from a standard home kitchen is a challenge. Challenge accepted. 🫡

It’s been so nice to cook outside recently, after a Winter that felt like it would never end! I got my hands on some Tubby Tom’s at The Garden Kitchen by Pugh's the other day and I was (quite literally) fired up to get this chunk of ribeye on the grill. These seasonings are ideal for the Summer season. Recipe below. 🤘🏻

Feeds 2
Tubby Tom’s Wake The Dead seasoning
Tubby Toms’s Smoked Chilli Oil
Your steak cut of choice
250ml crème fraiche (or sour cream)
200g salted butter
Juice of 1 lime
Handful fresh coriander
Tortillas/tacos
Baby gem lettuce
Sunflower oil
Salt & pepper

Bring the steak to room temperature and coat it in sunflower oil to help the seasoning stick.

Seasoning generously with salt and Tubby Tom’s Wake The Dead. The quantity is up to you but you really can’t have too much of this stuff.

Melt the butter in a saucepan with 2 tablespoons of Wake The Dead. Set aside and keep warm.

Sear the steak on both sides over a high heat. Now drop the heat to low, baste generously with the seasoned butter and cook to your preferred temperature. Remove from heat, rest and continue to baste periodically.

Combine the crème fraiche in a bowl with the lime juice, coriander, salt, pepper and a good squeeze of the smoked chilli oil.

Brush the tortillas with the seasoned butter and lightly toast. Top with the crème fraiche, lettuce, slices of the steak and finish with a touch more smoked chilli oil.

Last night was a vibe! ☀️ Loved cooking my Asian tapas menu for and her family and friends. Honestly, we could’ve been in Spain. A sun trap garden, music on, food flowing. Thanks for having me Dani, and congratulations on your incredible London Marathon finish last weekend! 👨🏻‍🍳

My 2016 (or thereabouts!) It was a good year for me. Crazy to look back on some of these. 🤯
