Astonishingly, I managed to find time for experimental baking last week, despite it being the final slog of the summer hols.

I firmly have one foot in the realm of old-fashioned, Victorian and wartime recipes, and the other in modern reinterpretations of those things, all the while trying to stay local and seasonal. I love researching the recipes as much as the baking (and eating!) itself.

As well as a good few yeasted buns, I made a sticky toffee flapjack, which was rather delicious, and these, Sussex sausage rolls- essentially sausage and caramelised onion baked into a bread roll. Don’t they look fab!

Some things I’ve been baking over the last few weeks-

•Cherry Frangipane Cake.
•Medieval Mushroom Hand Pies. I love reading historic recipes. Sometimes, if I have all the ingredients I might even bake them. Mushrooms with ginger, nutmeg and honey? Surprisingly delicious.
•Bacon Badgers. I won’t lie, I just love the name. Ordinarily, one big badger serves the whole family, but with future markets in mind I attempted to make some small badgers. They’re rather good.
•I’ve secretly been trying to master bread-baking.
•Eton Mess Cake for a golden wedding anniversary party.
•We have courgettes coming out of our ears at the moment! We’ve had courgetti, a Spring Onion, Courgette & Goat’s Cheese Galette and…
•A Chocolate Courgette Cake. I’ve also given several away. Currently staring at a 1.8kg beast wondering what to stuff it with! 🙈

Courgette, Carlin Pea & Feta Veggie Sausage Rolls.

Thank God I was closed last week and not labouring in a 38 degree kitchen; puff pastry would have been disastrous!

I expected to return to my garden and find it completely bereft of life, yet by some miracle, everything was fine (other than the rocket which had bolted)… And much to my delight, the courgette plants have sprung into action. Cue the courgette recipes!

I thought I’d give the veggie sausage rolls a bit of a summer glow up, trading carrot and chickpea for courgette and carlin pea (British-grown and far superior to chickpeas btw). I’ve also added red onion, feta, oregano and za’atar for a Middle Eastern vibe. Available from French & Day Delicatessen this week.
