Last year we had had every intention of highlighting recipes from Genevieve Taylor’s book – “Charred”. I really think that this is a great book for those of us wanting to try more vegetarian cooking. Especially those of us wanting to explore it when cooking […]
The question in the title is a little facetious but potato skins cooked on the Big Green Egg are something of a revelation! Just before the Covid Pandemic lockdown we were lucky enough to get a 12.5Kg box of Linda (1951) potatoes from Carroll’s Heritage […]
Sometimes it is the simplest of dishes that give the most satisfaction. This is very much one of those dishes! It is hard to better simple roast potatoes – but this is a dish that does that!. Indeed it would be a lovely simple supper […]
We have returned to this dish so often – in so many ways it has been the ‘go to’ dish of the summer! It has also been popular with friends who have adopted the dish and have added it to their own regular cooking repertoire. […]
When we were in Italy we were very fortunate to be given some Mazze di Tamburo (Parasol mushrooms). These were found in the local chestnut groves and although we had seen them growing, our knowledge of wild mushrooms is such that unless we are with […]

My friend Nicola has been playing with last month’s pumpkin recipe a little but to great success as you can see in the pictures. She made a couple of small modifications from the one we published a couple of weeks ago and I thought they […]
Autumn is a time of year when the shops seem to be full of pumpkins – but sadly most are destined to make ‘pumpkin lanterns’ for Halloween rather than be eaten. Well here is a really simple autumn alternative and would be perfect for any […]
This is a very simple dish that we have done a few time now as a way to use the remaining heat in the Big Green Egg once it has been shut down. This is one of the endearing qualities of the EGG and we […]
