Notes about Recipes in this book

• Lamb shakshouka

  • tui on June 13, 2013

    I think this version of shakshouka is absolutely delicious and it has been a hit with friends and family. The meat is an optional ingredient (and I have used beef mince when I didn't have lamb) but I think it adds an extra dimension, especially if you are serving this as the main meal of the day. It only needs some bread to eat with it, and perhaps a salad.

    This is absolutely delicious and makes a perfectly sufficient dinner main course. I added half a red jalapeño for a bit of almost undetectable heat.

• Pumpkin, ginger, chickpea and cheese soup

  • ttfoodie on January 05, 2014

    Beautiful, interesting soup. I left out the sour cream and chives garnish. Warning - if following the online recipe the amount of cheese should read 60 g not 600 g! Best if cheese added just before serving.

    7.13 Forgot ginger & thinned with 1 cup stock. Alright - v robust and filling.

• Creamy mushroom and hazelnut soup

  • ithyt on September 27, 2015

    5.13 Scrummy - present. Made up to Step 3 and then froze - great. Can also substitute crème fraiche for sour cream and walnuts for hazelnuts.

  • MichelleWoods on February 15, 2017

    This was sooo good, I used 60g of walnuts instead of 100g of hazelnuts as that's all I had. For such an easy recipe the depth of flavour was really satisfying - a lovely bowl of umami-deliciousnous...

  • ithyt on September 27, 2015

    6.15 Scrummy - didn't use all the stock.

    This recipe is amazing made it last week for friends they got very excited about it . Was absolutely delicious and so easy.

• Beef and baked bean meatloaf

  • ithyt on September 27, 2015

    8.15 Put into two loaf tins - a bit crumbly - not a 'standard' meatloaf.

  • ithyt on September 27, 2015

    4.15 This makes a huge salad.

  • ithyt on September 15, 2015

    9.15 Scrummy tasty salad - didn't have radishes or courgettes which didn't matter.

• Warm salad of roast squash and garlic with peanuts and lime chilli dressing

  • ithyt on September 27, 2015

    9.13 Double pumpkin next time - quite different - maybe try w 1/2 soy and 1/2 fish sauce - I found the fish sauce quite strong.

• Tandoori-style chicken with saffron lemon rice

  • ithyt on September 27, 2015

    3.14 Chicken took much longer to cook (one hour-ish) Scrummy - enough marinade for 6 thighs.

  • ithyt on September 27, 2015

    11.15 Made for a quiche - great. Not ideal for meat pies use flaky.

• Grilled beef fillet with wasabi crumbs

  • ithyt on September 27, 2015

    9.13 Scrummy - serv. Needs a light salad. Could try w steak other than fillet.

• Chillied beef and cashew stew with coriander salsa

  • ithyt on September 27, 2015

    10.13 H liked but not the salsa - I liked the salsa. Beef v tender.

  • ithyt on September 27, 2015

    5.13 Didn't have pecans or walnuts - worth perfecting. Extremely rich - needs icecream.

    11.13 Very crumbly - ok - like the idea but just too crumbly.

• Flourless lemon, coconut and walnut cake

  • debkellie on June 10, 2013

    I tried this one.. maybe my lemons were too sour, but maybe there's a reason why so few "cake" recipes in this book :-)
