A week ago in Norfolk, Wells next the sea, a row of brightly coloured beach huts. It was cold but bright. I wanted to forage samphire but the season hadn’t started according to locals. Today I’m in bed after having my second covid jab. So much to do, I need to edit all my photos, transcribe an interview, write my column, take stuff to charity shops now they are open, mow the lawn, write complaint letters to Notting hill genesis & Camden council, find a carpenter, get the roof fixed, but I feel like shit so I’m just gonna rewatch line of duty series 1 so I understand what’s going on now. I went for a drink last week now pubs are open but honestly it was so cold, the drinks cost a lot and the chips were burnt. #comingoutoflockdown #norfolk #covidjab2

Pistachio cream filled mini eggs. I made my own Ea

Pistachio cream filled mini eggs. I made my own Easter eggs this year. You need moulds-a lint free cloth to polish them- some good quality chocolate like @guittardchocolate - a pastry brush. Melt the chocolate drops over a bainmarie or 30 seconds in the microwave. Brush the chocolate into the moulds trying not to go over the edge and put the mould in the fridge. Once hardened and chilled, use a teaspoon to drop in the pistachio cream. Return to fridge. Warm up a baking tray in the oven. Then take the mini eggs put of the fridge and pop them out of the moulds. Place the flat side on the warm baking tray then press the two halves together. #easter #pacques #minieggs #eastereggs #chocolate #chocolaterecipe #easterrecipe #makeyourowneastereggs #supperclub #msmarmitelover #easter2021 #easterbasket #easterchocolateeggs

Ok this is super simple. A tomato & sweetcorn salad. Always have tons of sweet corn in your house because they make an instant salad. You can combine it with cucumber, tomato, halloumi, feta, herbs, peaches, and obviously tuna. I dressed this with lime and olive oil, but you could use a mustard vinaigrette or mayonnaise. #simplefood #saladideas #sweetcorn #tinnedfood #lockdownlarder #covidpantry #summerfood #supperclub #thejoyoftins #Msmarmitelover

Potato and rosemary pizza with tomato & parsley sa

Potato and rosemary pizza with tomato & parsley salad. Potato pizza sounds strange, after all you are double carbing. But it works. Thin soft slices of potato ( cut on a mandolin, soaked in water, then carefully dried on a tea towel) layered over day old pizza dough. ( leaving your dough a day or several just makes it deeper flavoured). A few sprigs of flowering rosemary from the garden too. I used @pomoragoodfood flavoured olive oils: the rosemary on the pizza, and garlic flavour in the salad. I also love the lemon flavour. #sundaylunch #homemadepizza #potatopizza #doublecarb #salad #simplefood #supperclub

My daughters 27th birthday today. Her cake didn’t arrive this morning so quickly knocked up a 3 tier chocolate cake with blueberry buttercream & mint, rose & violet pieces. Also made my first hand tied bouquet from yellow roses, garden daffodils, rosemary in flower & palm fronds. She’s moving flat today so it’s not been too much of a celebration so far 🎉🍾🥂#chocolatecake #birthdaycake #flowers #floristry #bouquet #spring #27 #darlingdaughter #birthday #supperclubchef

Sometimes for dinner or lunch all I do is shove a load of vegetables on a roasting tin, toss them in olive oil, salt, pepper, fresh herbs (woody ones like rosemary) and roast. I cut the potatoes up fairly small so they all take the same amount of time. I cook on an aga which is a weighty cast iron oven where you are supposed to cook 80% of your good in the oven, and 20% on top, so this is an easy option- no preheating necessary because an aga is on all the time. Here I have aubergine, carrots, butternut squash & potatoes 🥔 . I have loads of roast veg ideas in my book V is for vegan. #vegan #vegetarian #roasting #easymeals #supperclub #aga #ovenroasted #visforvegan #msmarmitelover #londonchef

I was sent this incredible box of cheeses from @thecheeseclubuk 7 cheeses including sheep rustler, blue Cheshire, Elric log, rachel, sparkenhoe Red Leicester, keens cheddar, Ayrshire Dunlop, 3 pots of piccalilli, chutney, onion jam. Crackers, biscuits. And a bottle of moscato d’asti. Really impressed. This will be a spring feast. £50 and you get a different seasonal on each month. They say it’s for two people but I’d say 4. A nice birthday gift. #cheese #britishcheese #cheesehamper #cheeseclub #cheesesofinstagram #hamper #gift #springsurprise #mealkits #cheeseandcrackers #wineandcheese

Moqueca stew with butternut squash & jackfruit. Ma

Moqueca stew with butternut squash & jackfruit. Many Brazilian dishes are African influenced & this is no exception, deriving from an Angolan stew. Usually it is with seafood, but this is a vegan version. I used palm oil which is also very Brazilian/Angolan. It’s red because of the high levels of beta-carotene. There are environmental issues around the use of palm oil- rainforest is cut down to access it. Like coconut oil it is solid when cool and liquid when heated. I spent a few months in the sertao region of Brazil & read the magical realism fiction of Jorge Amado . One of his novels: Dona Flor and her two husbands, contains recipes. She bewitched her husbands with her Brazilian cooking. #bubblelunch #brazilianfood #sertão #moqueca #vegan #stew #angolanfood #lockdownlarder #supperclub #covidcuisine #msmarmitelover #food #homecooked

Steamed griddled Savoy cabbage wedges with butter, poppy seed, citrus dressing. I used to hate cruciferous sulphuric vegetables like cabbage & Brussels sprouts but now I’m addicted. In other news after 8 weeks my air boot is off (from my broken ankle) but I seem to have forgotten how to walk. Really bizarre. I’m still shuffling & limping. Will I get better?

Stuffed savoury persimmons. You can pretty much stuff anything: peppers, courgettes, aubergines, squash, potatoes skins, bananas, tomatoes. With enamel spoon and bowl. Cut the little hats off, set aside. Then stuff the veg with cooked rice, or freekeh or couscous or bulghur wheat, mix with finely chopped preserved lemon, some nuts or seeds, a fresh herb of your choice. Add a little olive oil & seasoning. Put the hats back on. Bake for 30 minutes. #supperclub #stuffedvegetables #vegetarian #recipe #motheringsunday2021 #lockdown2021 #covidcuisine #enamelware

Yesterday I made tacos with refried black beans, halloumi, sour cream, Mayo with chipotle, guacamole, cucumbers & lettuce. It was the second half of a @hellofreshuk meal kit and I bumped it up with fridge foraging. You see that b & w round fabric pouch? This is a tortilla warmer. One of my best buys ever. It keeps them soft & warm, using the trapped heat to steam the tortillas. I bought this in New Mexico but I imagine you can get them online here. #mexicanfood #tacos #blackbeans #leftovers #lockdownlarder #bubblelunch #refriedbeans #supperclub #mealkit #fridgeforaging #msmarmitelover #tortillawarmer

Nothing like homemade freshly fried falafel. I’m doing the Syrian version: 50% chickpea and 50% fuul Mesdames( peeled) & plenty of sesame seeds. This makes them soft & fluffy on the inside. Served with made from scratch hummus, cucumber salad & home baked bread. #lunchbubble #falafel #syrianfood #foulmesdames #pulses #fromscratch #fromscratchcooking #supperclub #lockdownlunch #covidcuisine

Been baking up a storm over the last couple of weeks. I did a @learningwithexperts baking course taught by @richardbertinet I now have baskets of focaccia, olive & sundried tomato breadsticks, sesame plaits, poppy seed stars, pizza bases, walnut & sour cherry loaves. I’ve practised my white dough, pain de mine, olive dough & brown dough. Basic courses from £35. It’s a good moment to revise basics & enhance your skills during lockdown. Enjoyable & motivating. #onlineclasses #onlinelearning #onlinebaking #covidlearningexperiences #bakersofinstagram #msmarmitelover #breadmaking #breadbaking #breadlover #breadporn
