A slowcooker delight - Beef Bourguignon
Been batch cooking loads lately, it's definitely the way to go when you have a baby. You can spend 30 mins prepping then leave it all day and you end up with amazing food that will do usually 4 to 6 meals for 2 people. Then you've got super quick and easy tasty meals for during the week.
Beef (chopped)
Pack of chopped pancetta
1 bottle of red w**e
Jar of pickled silverskins onions
As many baby mushrooms as you want
Finely chopped carrot, onion and celery (optional)
500ml beef stock
Cornflour (to thicken at the end)
Brown the beef and pancetta then remove. Soften your finely chopped veg if using. B**g everything together in your slowcooker (excluding cornflour) and mix it up. Cook onnlow for 8-10 hours or high for 4-5 hours.
Last 60 - 30 mins, combine 3 teaspoons of cornflour with around 25ml of cold water and mix till smooth. Add to the slowcooker and mix. Make sure you allow enough time to thicken and for the flour taste to cook our before you serve.
Bone app the teeth!

Steak with celeriac chips, celeriac puree, sunblushed tomatoes and dressed watercress... simple and delicious!
I ❤️ celeriac and its definitely underused and underrated! IMO it goes brilliantly with steak for a slight twist or elevated version of classic steak and chips.

Recently took a trip to Sindhu by Atul Kochhar in Marlow and we were blown away by the Valentine's tasting menu!

When you go to a restaurant of a top chef, you have certain expectation for sure but this exceed all expectations. The started off simple and just got better with each course. Every course we tried became our favourite, until the next one came out and blew out tastebuds away all over again!

We were genuinely surprised by the fact we were stuffed when we left! While losts of dishes are small the main was very substantial, plus because we got the poppadums!

The main was the undoubted star of the show buy honourable mentions for the onion bhaji, prawns and dessert. The most remarkable things about every dish but it was particularly noticeable on the dessert was the balance of flavours.

Big shout out for the service too, it was faultless. Attentive but personable. Our water glass was never empty and someone was always there when we wanted more w**e.

Sindhu is a must visit restaurant in my opinion, particularly if you love Indian food!
