A Big Fat Focaccia Sandwich
This focaccia recipe is my favourite and it is so easy to make, there’s hardly any hands on time. No kneading required either. It’s a 90% hydration dough which means it’s light and soft. Apart from the delicious focaccia, the other star of the show is the pistachio pesto. It’s punchy, garlicy and so tasty. Any leftover is perfect for pesto pasta too.
Seeded Bagels with Leek, Dill & Crispy Onion Schmear
Fresh, chewy bagels with a generous toasty seeded topping and filled to the brim with a lip-smacking buttery leek schmear, fresh dill and crispy onions. If anyone needs me, I’ll be thinking about these for the next few weeks.
Herby, Roasted Garlic Scones
I dreamt of a savoury scone, packed full of herbs & caramelised roasted garlic with just a touch of sweetness. So I immediately went into my kitchen and conjured these up. Two batches and a couple of tweaks later and they're here.
Super flaky, buttery and full of chives, dill & rosemary. Chuck in a whole bulb of roasted garlic & they're perfect.
Butternut Squash, Mushroom & Gorgonzola Quiche
I grew up eating quiche. It evokes light summer dinners in the garden and a surprise piece nestled in my lunch box. My mum can whip one up in no time; a talent I'm yet to master.
This is my grown-up take, full of fresh rosemary and mushrooms. You can switch out the rosemary to sage for my favourite butternut squash herb pairing. I always hope it will last us a few meals but it seems to be devoured within a day or two!
