  • Sweet and sour pork

    • KarinaFrancis on October 18, 2022

      I can’t believe I actually made sweet and sour pork! It’s long been a takeaway favourite and now (perhaps dangerously) I can make it at home. The sauce thickened almost instantly when it hit the pan so I added a bit more water to thin it out. I’m definitely making this again!

  • Whisky oranges with Atholl brose cream

    • Foodycat on July 21, 2014

      All-time family favourite dessert. And so adaptable! I've done it with mixed citrus, I've done it as a parfait with fresh orange jelly, I've set the cream as a pannacotta. But the combination of orange, cream, whisky and honey is superb.
