It’s turned slightly wintery again so lets bulk up with a delicious, easy chicken supper. As I write, it appears to be November once more. Depressing, depressing, depressing. The forecast for tomorrow is no better and with a Bank Holiday weekend in the offing the sun they are predicting will have disappeared from your weather…
This week, I have been experimenting with a new, healthy cooking toy to create these tasty little treats. My lovely friends at VonShef are just too lovely. I was super keen to try their 3.5 litre Air Fryer so they kindly sent me one to play with. I had spotted this fryer in one of…
This recipe is a lovely, tasty dish without any of the stirring nonsense. Sausage Risotto has always been the way to my husband’s heart. He loves it, but my version, made since we first moved in together 100 years ago, is just a bit 1994. This recipe, however, is delicious and right up to date….
This week it’s time to turn your thoughts to the long Easter weekend with all those hungry mouths to feed. It’s here at last – Easter Week. I feel I have been waiting for this four day weekend for the last month. It’s been a manic start to the year with our kitchen refurb dragging it’s…
This week, Lucy revisits a super tasty old school takeaway classic which she uses to woo her loved ones. When I first met Clyde, when the world was in black and white, a Chinese Takeaway was quite the pinnacle of a Saturday night treat. We would order all our favourite dishes, nip to pub for…
This week Lucy is sharing a brilliant giant pancake recipe, perfect for breakfast or dessert. Great for sharing, or not. I may have mentioned this before, but I am not a huge fan of food which is thought to be ‘fun’. I love delicious food, I love food with which you get your hands dirty, but…
This week, Lucy has put together a versatile dish to cheer up young and old alike at the start of a new term. Hooray, we are home after a two week holiday. Boo, due to flight issues we were home 12 hours later than expected. Subsequently I have appalling jet lag and keep nodding off. Plus,…
Today, Lucy is sharing a quick soup recipe. Her spiced version of this classic comfort food is savoury and delicious. My youngest son is a huge fan of Singapore noodles, but only the ones from the supermarket chilled cabinet, he thinks the Chinese restaurant version contain too many alarming vegetables. So I decided to create this Singapore…
This week Lucy has fashioned a recipe which a) cuts down on the washing up and b) is so simple you may be able to get the children to cook it for you. This week, Lucy Loves is all about the children. No change there then, as frankly, in our house, it’s always all about…
This week, Lucy has fashioned a weather cursing salad, perfect for picnics, to accompany a barbecue or pack it up as a portable lunch for work. It seems we have had the two good days of summer already and now we are back to grey and drizzle. To raise morale and brighten up lunchtime, I am…
