Brown Butter and Hazelnut Blondies

April 21

An ideal tray bake which feels fancy. Brown butter is the not so secret ingredient in most of my favourite bakes. Delicious in chewy chocolate chip cookies or banana bread and equally irresistible in these brownies.

Spiced Rack of Lamb Dinner with Sticky Roast Beets, Salsa Verde & Roast Potatoes

April 20

Though a rack of lamb might look a little tricky to tackle, with the right timing it can be made very simply. It’s best served medium rare and blushing in the centre. I highly encourage you to serve it with the punchy salsa verde here- the sharp zingy salsa cuts through the sweetness and fattiness of the lamb and alongside beets and roast potatoes – this makes for a real treat for 2-4 people.

Classic Chicken Caesar Salad

Often the test of a good cook, the humble caesar salad, done well, remains one my favourite things to make in the summer months. If I’m going to put in the effort, the dressing must be the classic and include anchovies for their salty bite, from there it is open to interpretation. Purists may balk at the idea of soft boiled eggs and charred chicken but for me they make it a generous summer meal and are essential.

Raspberry & White Chocolate Ricotta Pound Cake

A no fuss basic baking recipe to easily master which can be adapted with any fruit you might like to substitute. I particularly like the combination of raspberries and white chocolate here though, a combination I often add to muffins for sweet summery vibes.
