Welcome to my recipes
There are getting on for 1000 in this collection. They’re all simple, seasonal and very achievable, whether you’re cooking something quick and light or settling in for something slow and comforting. The recipes here reflect the way I cook at home and the way I like to eat; they are very much shaped by the seasons and by the ingredients themselves.
To help you find your way around my recipes, use the search bar below, it allows you to explore the recipes in whatever way suits you. You can choose a season, select a course, or search by recipe type. With so many here, it's a good way to make browsing easier and more intuitive. Many of the following recipes are accompanied by video, so you can cook along or just get a sense of the dish before you begin.
Roast purple sprouting broccoli with anchovy, cream, chilli & parmesan
This dish combines a handful of big flavours that all complement the broccoli beautifully. Everyone who’s tasted this dish has gone back for more
Roast bream with artichokes, onions, smoked bacon & thyme
Last night I cooked this dish using black bream. It was probably one of the most delicious ‘all-in-one’ recipes I’ve made for years
Whole beef shin with red wine, carrots & little onions
This recipe is gentle and warming and perfect for those slower, darker nights at home
Roast turbot & chicken wings
For me, it made complete sense to pair up these two wonderful ingredients. It is simply a case of equality.
Slow-roast goat with honey, saffron, prunes & preserved lemon
If you like the depth of flavour in lamb and mutton, then goat will definitely be your jam
My favourite pizza
There is usually a time and a place for good pizza. But, I’d take this one, happily, any day of the week
An apple tart
It’s the combination of the crisp, flaky pastry alongside the sweet, moist compôte that makes this simple tart so heavenly
Plum & almond tart with star anise & vanilla
Here, I’m baking plums in a rather sticky, greedy, almond tart, flavoured with star anise, a spice that has cool, sweet, aromatic undertones and complements the plum beautifully
Baked apples with vanilla, butter, lemon & brown sugar
Baking apples takes cooking away from what it means today
Mussel croquettes
It’s impossible to refuse a well-made croquette, irrefutably one of the tastiest canapés of all
Fire planked fish
I love this recipe because it challenges the norm; it puts us outside the area we feel comfortable in, and makes us think about food and cooking in another way
