…standout dish that I shall always associate with that suspended table under the pine trees; atún encebollado.

Panettone Bread and Butter Pudding
not many people are keen on panettone – is it bread or cake? It’s too dry to be cake but not doughy enough to be bread. What do you have it with? How do you slice it? How do you serve it? Are those raisins and bits of candied peel?
Taco Tuesday
…spice them up with jalapeños, cool them down with sour cream…
Mum’s Coconut Prawns
These are the sort of thing that you snack on quite easily without realising how many tails you are unashamedly stacking on the side of your plate!
French Toast
Cinnamon & Vanilla flavoured French Toast is great as it is but I always like mine topped with some fruit compote or even a drizzle of maple syrup or if I’m being particularly greedy, both.
Shepherd’s Pie
my favourite way of eating this was with a squeeze of ketchup over the mash and then mixing everything together into a plateful of dark, pink-brown gloop studded with baked beans.
Pea Soup
I remember we’d dry our rain-wet hair and crowd around the dining table. Snuggled round a small, circular table, elbows touching, necks down plunging spoons into the golden, lava-hot, gloopy, yellow split pea soup we’d share our morning’s routines.
Margarita Sweet Potato Wedges
Grill some chicken breasts and corn on the cob to make this a great mid-week family supper. But I warn you, the first time I made this I ate the entire tray of sweet potato wedges and left everything else!
Pumpkin
“The perfect pumpkin recipe to celebrate this fantastic gourd and welcome in those longer autumnal evenings.”
