Now it's the start of a new season, Summer, a salad seemed a fitting start.

Pork mince fried with garlic, ginger and spring onion, with added beansprouts and a hoisin laced sauce including rice wine, soy, a splash of chicken stock and sugar.

Served on a bed of shredded lettuce and savoy cabbage, grated carrot and sliced sugar snap peas, Drizzled with a lime and peanut dressing. Topped with chopped coriander and peanuts.

I'll definitely be making this again.

A perfect salad for a hot spring day.

Full of different flavours, textures and colour.

Peppery rocket, creamy avocado, salty serrano ham, sweet and crunchy pomegranate seeds, tangy sundried tomatoes, warm juicy chicken. Drizzled with a sweet and sharp balsamic glaze and served with chunks of rosemary and salt focaccia.

Washed down with a Sauvignon Blanc, full of peach and tropical fruit and a zip of acidity.

I can not tell you how good this meat is.

This was an easy and damn tasty meal, that the family loved.

Sliced onions slowly fried for at least 20 minutes until sweet and caramelised.
Chopped green peppers fried quickly in the same pan with the heat whacked up.

Griddle the steak, I cooked mine to medium. Let it rest and thinly slice. Add to the onions and peppers.

Turn off the heat, add shredded mozzarella, put a lid on and let the residual heat melt the cheese.

Cook some skinny chips and load with the philly cheese steak.

I do like making a risotto. It's an easy dish to make but just needs that bit of patience and time. It's a bit of a stress relief. The constant stirring while you add a ladle of stock. Waiting for it to be absorbed until the next one goes in.

It gives you time to think about your day, have those arguments in your head and then think of the witty and clever retort you wished you had said at the time. Or if you're like me, over think things that happened 30 years ago.

This was a chorizo, courgette and pea risotto. Drizzled with some balsamic glaze and some chilli oil from

Bacon wrapped Oreos anyone?

Cooked over hot coals on the bbq and then served with vanilla ice cream.

I've been meaning to do these for ages, ever since I saw them in a book.

They did not disappoint. Salty, sweet, crunchy, soft, hot, cold. Had it all. Delicious.

This wasn't half bad for May day.

Pork tenderloin with a Tuscan bean sauce, buttered salad potatoes and broccoli.

Tender, juicy pork tenderloin. Soft butter beans in a creamy, paremsan sauce with the tang of sundried tomatoes and earthy spinach flecked through providing an irony contrast. Based on a recipe from

Really enjoyed this washed down with a crisp fruity Muscadelle
