Posted on August 23, 2011 by Louise

Bill Granger again? Halloumi again? Yes, and I’m not going to apologise because it won’t be long, at least in the UK where it already feels like autumn, before tastes like this seem like a distant memory. This is a delicious mini-tweak to … Continue reading →

Posted on June 15, 2011 by Louise

Comfort food isn’t something I often associate with the summer. It’s a description I tend to use for sausages and mash, roast dinners and bowls of soothing Thai chicken soup. But sometimes I crave a particular taste, a particular combination … Continue reading →

Bill Granger’s Honey Lemon Chicken recipe

Posted on May 18, 2011 by Louise
