Gluten-free, mostly dairy-free, and wholly vegetarian -- but don’t think for a moment that any recipe in My Darling Lemon Thyme - Recipes from my real food kitchen by Emma Galloway is anything less than mouthwatering. I’ve known Emma online for a while, but last year I had to pleasure to meet her in person and have a lovely chat over lunch. A soft-spoken, New Zealand ex-pat, she is amazingly passionate about food and it comes through in every word, recipe and photo on her blog and in her … [Read more...]
In My Kitchen: July 2014
It’s once again time for In My Kitchen and as per usual this is a collection of things from the past month — as seen over on Instagram — in loosely interpreted categories and no particular order. As always I’m linking up with Celia for IMK. ------ Kitchen shenanigans I styled a photo simply to rant, this should not surprise you too much. If you want the full story it's here on the original IG post, the important take out points are as follows: a cup of f-off weighs about 7 ounces and oh … [Read more...]
Fish Soup with Gruyere Croutons
A return to his roots, Manu Feildel’s third cookbook French for Everyone, is packed with simple, rustic dishes. Honest and easy to prepare, this is food from the kitchen of a French home rather than that of a French restaurant. That's not to say you would turn down any of the dishes if they were served to you by a bistro-aproned waiter, but in juxtaposition to his second book, the techniques and recipes in French for Everyone are approachable enough to prepare at home. With options for … [Read more...]
In My Kitchen: June 2014
It’s once again time for In My Kitchen and as per usual this is a collection of things from the past month -- as seen over on Instagram --- in loosely interpreted categories and no particular order. As always I’m linking up with Celia for IMK, ------ Kitchen shenanigans I'm currently a bit mad about this vegan butter I created on a whim. Three ingredients, so easy and so very good. I promise to share soon! ------ Spoils* from a paella class put on recently by Flavours of Spain. I … [Read more...]
In My Kitchen: May 2014
It's once again time for In My Kitchen and as per usual this is a collection of things from the past month, as seen over on Instagram… Here we go, in loosely interpreted categories and no particular order, and as always I'm linking up with Celia for IMK, The Book Shelf I don't buy too many cookbooks these days (pretty much banned if they aren't gifted or won) but could not pass up this perfect condition used copy of Artisan Bread in Five Minutes a Day when I stumbled across it during my … [Read more...]

Then last year she not only won a host of blogging awards but secured a book deal -- … [Read more...]
Green Herb Pesto & In My Kitchen: April 2014
If you haven't noticed I'm rather prolific over on Instagram... ahem, and therefore each time I pull together a list for In My Kitchen I simply scroll back through photos shared since the last post to work out what's been going on. There is a bit of a method to the madness, even if the resulting collections appear as slightly randomly grouped items all in one place. That said my life is slightly random when put all in one place, so it fits. Anyway, it's once again time to link up with Celia … [Read more...]
