Ingredients
4 thick pieces of cod fillet , about 120g each, from sustainable sources
8 thin slices of higher-welfare pancetta
2 lemons
500 g potatoes
300 g frozen garden peas
½ a fresh red chilli , (optional)
1 small k**b of butter
1 splash of milk
½ a bunch of fresh mint , (15g)
60 g rocket
extra virgin olive oil

Method
Preheat your oven to 200°C/400°F/gas 6.
Season the cod with sea salt and black pepper, place on an oiled baking tray and lay two slices of pancetta over the top of each fillet.
Halve the lemons and place the four lemon halves, cut side down, on the tray next to the fish. Roast in the preheated oven for 10 to 15 minutes, or until the fish flakes easily.
Peel and quarter the potatoes and cook until soft in boiling salted water. Meanwhile, cook the peas to packet instructions, then drain and blitz the peas in a food processor (or mash up with a fork if you don't have one).
Deseed and finely dice the red chilli, if using.
Drain the potatoes and mash with butter, hot milk, salt and pepper, whizzed-up peas and the red chilli if using.
Put the rocket in a mixing bowl, pick in the mint leaves and toss together and dress with extra virgin olive oil.
Serve each piece of cod on a dollop of pea and potato mash, with a little salad on the side.

02/27/2022

Ingredients
2 cloves of garlic
3 cm piece of ginger
140 g natural yoghurt
60 ml passata
olive oil
1 teaspoon garam masala
½ teaspoon smoked paprika
½ teaspoon ground turmeric
4 free-range skinless chicken breasts
1 large red pepper

Method
Place 12 wooden skewers into a large roasting tray of cold water to soak – this will stop them from burning.
Peel the garlic and ginger, then finely grate and place into a large mixing bowl.
Add the yoghurt, passata, 1 tablespoon of oil and the spices, then mix well.
Slice the chicken into bite-sized chunks and add to the bowl, then season with a tiny pinch of sea salt.
Toss everything together to coat, then cover with clingfilm and place in the fridge to marinate for around 2 hours.
Meanwhile, halve and deseed the pepper, then roughly chop into chunks, roughly the same size as the chicken.
Remove the skewers from the tray, discard the water and wipe the tray dry.
Divide and thread the ingredients between your skewers – don’t push them too close together otherwise they won’t cook properly, then place onto the tray.
Put the griddle pan on a high heat to warm up (or you could cook them under the grill or on the barbecue).
Drizzle the skewers with a little oil, then place onto griddle and cook for 10 to 15 minutes, or until cooked through, turning every 2 minutes to get nice and golden on all sides – you may need to work in batches.
Once cooked, transfer the kebabs to a platter and serve with a fresh zingy salad and some rice or flatbreads

02/08/2022

Ingredients
1 Gressingham duck , giblets removed
Maldon sea salt
2 tablespoons Chinese five-spice
2 tablespoons crème fraîche
1 lemon , juice of
2 teaspoons English mustard
sea salt
freshly ground black pepper
½ celeriac , peeled and chopped into matchsticks
2 red-skinned pears , chopped into matchsticks
1 small bunch fresh flat-leaf parsley , leaves picked and roughly chopped

Method
This French-style salad is a great, easy celeriac recipe and a gorgeous contrast with the rich duck.
Preheat the oven to 180ºC/350ºF/gas 4.
Rub the duck with a generous amount of Maldon sea salt and the five-spice powder. Place it upside down on a roasting tray and roast for one hour. Then turn the duck the right side up, drain off any fat from the tray and roast for another hour.
While you allow the duck to cool, make your remoulade. Put the crème fraîche, lemon juice and mustard into a bowl, season with salt and pepper and mix well. Add the celeriac, pears and most of the parsley, and carefully combine.
Divide your remoulade between six small bowls and scatter with a little more chopped parsley. Shred the cooled duck with a couple of forks or your hands, and serve alongside the remoulade. Fantastic!

02/08/2022

Ingredients
3 sprigs of fresh rosemary
1 nutmeg
freshly ground black pepper
2 oranges or blood oranges
2 x 2 kg whole ducks , necks and giblets reserved and roughly
8 cloves garlic
3 red onions
a few stalks celery
3 carrots
5cm piece fresh ginger
½ stick cinnamon
3 bay leaves
2 kg Maris Piper potatoes
1 litre water or organic chicken stock
2 tablespoons plain flour
200 ml Port

Method
Pick the leaves off one rosemary sprig. Grate half the nutmeg and zest both oranges. Cut the oranges in half and set aside for stuffing the duck.
Put everything on a board with one tablespoon of sea salt and chop it all up. Rub the mixture all over the ducks, inside and out. Cover and leave in the fridge for a few hours or overnight to let the flavours pe*****te.
Preheat the oven to 180°C/350°F/gas 4 and arrange the shelves on the middle and bottom levels. Stuff the ducks with the remaining rosemary sprigs, garlic cloves and reserved orange halves.
Peel and quarter the onions, then trim and roughly chop the celery and carrots. Peel and chop the ginger. Scatter the veg and ginger in the bottom of a large, deep-sided roasting tray with the cinnamon and bay leaves. Roughly chop the reserved duck neck and giblets and add to the mix.
Place the ducks breast-side up, straight on to the bars of the middle shelf, then pop the veg-filled roasting tray on the bottom shelf beneath the ducks ready to catch all the lovely fat that drips out of them.
Meanwhile, peel the potatoes and cut them into chunks. Pop them in a pan and cover with cold, salted water. Bring to a simmer and parboil for 5 to 10 minutes, then tip into a colander and chuff them up a little.
After the duck has roasted for an hour, take the bottom tray out of the oven, replacing it immediately with an empty tray. Spoon the fat from the veggie tray into a bowl. Put all the veg, duck bits and juices into a large saucepan, then add a little boiling water to the tray to get all the sticky brown bits off the bottom – this is what you’re going to make your gravy with. Tip the water and brown bits into the pan with the veg, top up with 1 litre of water or chicken stock and place on a medium heat, skimming off any of the fat that rises to the top.
Put your parboiled potatoes into the empty tray in the oven. Add a few more tablespoons of duck fat from the bowl, season, and place back underneath the ducks to cook for an hour.
Meanwhile, heat a saucepan and add 2 tablespoons of duck fat. When it’s hot and melted, add the flour and stir with a wooden spoon until you have a paste. Stir in the contents of the saucepan and the Port. Bring the gravy to the boil and simmer gently for half an hour, stirring occasionally. By now the ducks will have had 2 hours in the oven and will be done. Lift them on to a plate, cover loosely with tin foil and leave to rest for about 15 minutes.
Pour the gravy through a sieve into a clean saucepan, pressing down on all the veg and other bits to extract as many flavours and juices as you can. Keep the gravy warm in the saucepan, again skimming off any fat on the surface.
When you're ready to dish up – don’t carve the ducks! The best thing to do is to pull the meat away from the bones with a pair of tongs or with your fingers wearing clean kitchen gloves, then let everyone fight over the delicious skin. Serve with your potatoes and gravy

01/20/2022

Ingredients
½ a small red onion
4 large free-range eggs
350 g asparagus
½ a bunch of fresh tarragon , (15g)
2 heaped teaspoons Dijon mustard

Method
Peel and very finely chop the red onion, place in a bowl, cover with 4 tablespoons of red wine vinegar and add a very good pinch of sea salt.
Lower the eggs into a pan of vigorously simmering water and boil for 5½ minutes exactly.
Line up the asparagus, trim off the woody ends, and place in a colander above the eggs, covered, to steam while the eggs cook. Meanwhile, pick the tarragon leaves.
In a bowl, whisk the mustard with 6 tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil, adding it gradually, then pour in the soaking vinegar from the onion through a sieve, whisking constantly. Taste and season to perfection with black pepper.
When the time’s up on the eggs, divide the asparagus between your plates.
Refresh the eggs under cold water until cool enough to handle, then peel, halve and plate up, sprinkled with the tarragon leaves and onion.
Drizzle each plate with 1 tablespoon of dressing (save the rest for another day), season from a height with a pinch of pepper, and dig in.
