This easy one pan dish is a dream to throw together and you end up with crispy skinned, juicy chicken pieces, melt in your mouth fennel, flavoursome potatoes and a yummy pan sauce.
Baked Salmon with an Almond and Curry Crust
Maple Mustard Chicken Skewers with Avocado and Mint Sauce
Last lockdown I was really into cooking complicated stuff from scratch just to keep myself entertained. This lockdown feels different. I just want simple and delicious things to eat for dinner that are quick to make. These skewers fit that description to a tee. The flavour is so addictive, the perfect balance of sweet, salty, sour, and a little hit of bitter from the mustard powder.
Roast Carrot and Honey Glazed Haloumi Salad
Oh this salad. This salad is just such a delightful time. The textures and flavours basically sing and I just can’t stop eating it.
Oven Baked Spiced Rainbow Trout With Loaded Yoghurt
The spices on this side of rainbow trout are so delicious and warming. The perfect flavours to accompany the yoghurt sauce that’s basically a salad. You could use any small – medium sized fish filleted in this style, or a tail of salmon would be ideal too.
Katsu Prawn Rice Bowls
These are so so easy to make! The prawns are ready in less than 10 minutes and all the other steps are super simple and minimal. The perfect thing to whip up for a week day dinner.
Mushroom and Kale Tortellini Soup
This is sort of like a tuscan tortellini soup but there’s no meat! The depth of flavour comes from the mushrooms being browned and the parmesan -both umami rich ingredients that make for the most delightful and comforting pasta filled soup. It also comes together in less than an hour which is always a win when it comes to comfort food.
Ponzu Pork Tenderloin with Sesame Noodles
This is one of those things that you eat and immediately start thinking about when you could eat it next. The marinade is so flavoursome with this lean cut of pork, and sealing it with the crispy crust keeps everything super juicy. Noodles + greens on the side and you have an incredibly tasty and easy meal.
Chicken, Cauliflower and Parmesan Pie
This is one of my favourite pies, rich in flavour and full of veg. The homemade pastry is totally optional as it’s delicious if you just use store bought pastry.
Coconut Curry Chicken Wings – Baked not Fried!
Look at that golden crunch! Can you believe these chicken wings are baked rather than fried? They have the most magical crunch and the best flavour thanks to a very simple 5 ingredient marinade.
