• Honey granola

    A fantastic basic granola that surpasses any store-bought variety.

• Pork fillet with orange and chilli glaze

    Made caramel many times over, but when adding the orange/vinegar to the caramel, it seized. Not once, not twice, but three times attempted to make the marinade, with each a disaster. There may be some operator error, but my favourite soy caramel marinade hasn't let me down before, so I'm wondering where I've gone so wrong with this. Won't be attempting any more repeats.

• Herb and glass noodle salad

    My parents & I quite liked this, though it wasn't to hubby's liking. We all added a swig of chilli sauce (he's chilli-adverse), so I wonder if this dish would've been a bit bland without the hit of heat. I used black vermicelli noodles (weirdly, all I could find in the pantry), though it really muted the colors rather than making them pop. I'm not sure that preparing the dressing a day in advance as per the instructions really added a great deal.
