Twinkle, twinkle! My mascarpone tart is all dolled up and ready to make an entrance. Can you guess which four fruits I used to decorate it? I’ll give you a clue: they’re all from my weekly shop @ziggysfresh [surprise] ⭐️ The tart itself couldn’t be easier. Whether you buy or make your shortcrust pastry shell, the filling only takes about fifteen minutes and the fruit does all the hard work. I’ll put the video in my stories tonight but here’s the recipe. ⭐️ Mix two 250g tubs of mascarpone with 3 tablespoons of icing sugar and a teaspoon of rosewater. Set aside. In a small saucepan warm 3 tablespoons of sour cream and one tablespoon of milk - don’t let them boil. In another bowl filled with cold water add one leaf of gelatin and allow to soften for about ten minutes. Once it’s done, drain, squeeze and stir into the the sour cream mix. Pour this into the rest of the filling and fill your pie case. Top with fruit and you’re good to go! #tart #pie #pieart #instabakes #baking #fruit #fresh

How did it take MISO long to try this delicious glazed eggplant?! 😜 I had tasted it but never made it... and now that I know how easy it is, I might just make it all the time. Umami central! And don’t be nervous: mirin and miso are available at the supermarket if you don’t have any. Here is where I would put the eggplant emoji if it didn’t feel largely inappropriate so we will go with this ➡️ 🥚 🌱 Combine 1tbsp of white and 1 tbsp of red miso paste with a tablespoon of mirin, a tablespoon of soy, a teaspoon of caster sugar, a little oil and some grated ginger. Score the eggplant and fry cut-side-down until charred a little. Brush with glaze and bake in the oven covered in foil then, finally, uncovered until burnished and gooey 🤤 PS: mirin autocorrects to ‘moron’ and I was tempted to leave it just to see if anyone noticed 🤣 Eggplant from @ziggysfresh #ad #miso #eggplant #umami #mirin #japanesefood #japanese #japaneserecipes #easyrecipes #vegetables

Who likes cream and cheese? Bacon too? I usually joke about how low fat my dishes are but it would be criminal to do that with my potato bake! 🤣 This thing must be enjoyed in full appreciation of the sheer amount of dairy one tray can hold... and potatoes! Did I mention bacon? 🥔 Start by mandolining a bunch of potatoes about 3mm thick. A Dutch Cream is perfection (@ziggysfresh obvs) or any potato that isn’t too waxy. Chat potatoes are a no-go. 🥔 In a jug infuse 600ml of cream with 3 crushed garlic cloves and a teaspoon of dried thyme. Layer the bake in a tray as follows: potatoes, grated cheese (choose whatever melty cheese your family likes - Swiss, mozzarella and tasty worked here), cream mixture and top every second layer with fried @pialligoestate_smokehouse bacon. Top the final layer with cheese, bread crumbs and... more bacon. Cover with foil and bake for an hour on 180 covered then uncover until golden on top. Best served after allowing to cool slightly. #potatobake #potatoes #simplesides #recipeideas #cheese #carboverload #cheeseporn

Let me start by saying that I love cauliflower. So when the folks @ziggysfresh gave me an enormous one and challenged me to make something different, I was delighted to help out. Seems like everyone has been roasting them whole lately so I mish-mashed a few recipes and came up with this vibrant dinner party centrepiece. It’s a little kitsch, I’ll concede, but with a combo of harissa hummus and a verdant green coriander pesto, it’s tasty too. I don’t think it will replace cauliflower cheese for my Sunday roast but next time I might chunk the cauliflower and turn it into a salad, with some halloumi for good measure to make it easier to serve. Any thoughts? Recipe below for all those eager to give it a whirl. 😊 METHOD: First I seasoned it with cumin, coriander, olive oil and honey then roasted in the oven covered with foil, adding a cup of water to stop it drying out. When it was done I placed it on a bed of homemade hummus mixed with harissa paste and topped with a dollop of Greek yoghurt, a drizzle of coriander pesto, some chopped pistachios and pomegranate seeds. #cauliflower #vegetarian #trysomethingnew

Normally I like my cake with a side of gluten but there’s no denying that the GF versions are incredibly... soft? Squishy? Not dry? Liquidy? Oh, geez, don’t make me use the ‘m’ word 🤣 But it is. That. 🍊 This Persian orange and almond cake is from @taste_team and involves simmering oranges then puréeing them whole. Beaten eggs give it incredible lift for something with no flour at all. Lastly a syrup is poured on top and left to soak in. Now that navel oranges are coming into season there’s no excuse not to give it a go! I got mine as part of my weekly shop @ziggysfresh (duh!) 🍊 #cake #glutenfree #instabakes #foodphotography #foodies #cakestagram

Who loves CUSTARD? I say, what’s not to love about this magical, non-Newtonian fluid?! 🤓 “Whoa, poindexter, slow down” they say. But for real, did you know that custard in the right proportions defies physics by being a liquid and a solid at the same time. Apparently you can walk on it as the pressure transforms it into a hard... have I lost you? Ok - back to food! These are Croatian Čajni Kolutići biscuits that are filled with creamy Creme Patissiere and rolled in coconut. Honestly, they’re among the BEST things I make and are SO easy.
