Mushroom Medley Topped Dal Curry

A version of this recipe was done by Nigel Slater and appeared in a Saturday Guardian. It’s worth a look at, as are all his recipes, the link is here. I had to switch it round a little to reduce the quantity of butter used. Check out his Kitchen Diaries too, I have the third one and… Read More Mushroom Medley Topped Dal Curry

Jamie O’s Smoky Feijoada

It had to happen at some point, I expose my love for Jamie Oliver’s recipes! He’s got a healthy cooking series and books out at the moment and has loads on his website all for free. The one I did is here. It’s got a lovely filling feeling. I’ve never heard let alone had Feijoada so… Read More Jamie O’s Smoky Feijoada

Miso, Watercress & Cucumber Soup

Don’t panic this is not as mad as it sounds. I have combined miso stock (you know that stuff you often see being sold off in the specialist aisle at the supermarket), watercress topped up with spinach and finished off with some diced cucumber and horseradish sauce. It all gives a sushi style of flavours… Read More Miso, Watercress & Cucumber Soup

Cod with a Parmesan Crust

I posted a picture of this dish on Instagram a couple of weeks ago and didn’t intend to do it as a recipe but then a friend asked me how to make it. I actually thought it was too simple for a recipe (sorry to him!) so here are some tips/pointers. The Crust I use… Read More Cod with a Parmesan Crust

Griddled Baby Gem Wedge Salad

There used to be a restaurant near my apartment that did griddled wedges of lettuce served with a lovely blue cheese dressing. Sadly it closed but my memory of the dish lingers on. Blue cheese is a no-no so I have done a cottage cheese based dressing and served it with a beetroot and radish… Read More Griddled Baby Gem Wedge Salad

Souvlaki, Kale Salad & Salsa Verde

This is a nice combo inspired by a range of countries and recipes. Instead of a writing it out in full  I’ve done some descriptions to follow along with any references and inspirations. Souvlaki – this is a greek classic often served by street vendors or in cafes. Keep it simple by marinading the meat… Read More Souvlaki, Kale Salad & Salsa Verde

Paper Bag Lemon & Chilli Salmon

Salmon cooked in a bag isn’t new but my lemony, chilli, vegetable combo was tasty. Try using some parchment / grease proof paper instead of foil for a less intense radiated heat. Serves one, 400 calories. Ingredients 150g skinless, boneless salmon steak 1 medium carrot, peeled and then peeled in to long ribbons 2 spring… Read More Paper Bag Lemon & Chilli Salmon

I’m Will

Welcome to my site. My aim is to find ways to use my love for food and drink to make me thinner NOT fatter. As a 50 something bloke my view of how to achieve this, I think, is more realistic than many food bloggers.
