Salsa Verde
A refreshing sauce that packs a punch, lots of herbs, lemon and garlic make a great dip, or an addition to your cooking to pep it up.

Swimming Rice
My grandmother’s recipe, always packed when we were heading off for a day at the beach. Carnaroli rice is simmered in chicken stock, then mixed with poached chicken, albacore tuna, a little onion, some diced red pepper and sweetcorn. All mixed together with a little mayo, this is a summertime treat.

Tabbouleh
A base of bulgar wheat is loaded with fresh tomatoes, lemon zest & juice and plenty of olive oil. A lovely side dish, or light lunch.

Deep fried and ready to eat, they are served with a small container of our Truckers Sauce.

Grandmothers Broad Beans
This is a Maltese favourite. Baby broad beans are simmered with tomato and onion, scented with a little mint and parsley and finished with a sprinkle of crisp breadcrumbs to soak up the flavours.

Honey & Ginger Aubergine
My honey & ginger aubergine has a kick from the finely sliced ginger & chilli.

Sicilian Style Melanzana Parmigiano
A delicious take on Aubergines, assembled from gently fried aubergines, tomato sauce and mozzarella, combined to make a savoury ‘cake’.
