Shannon’s Salmon Skewers
I spotted a recipe for salmon skewers and forwarded it to my lovely client Shannon as she loves fish and cooking on the barbecue. She tweaked the original recipe and this is her version. I think it’s really unusual to have pineapple and salmon but the combination...
Lamb and Beef Kebabs
We’ve had the most amazing summer this year, and I’ve made these several times. You can make them with just lamb, or just beef mince but I like the combination. The only way to mix them is to get your hands into the mixture. I challenge you to try these rather than...
Potato Salad
Early season potatoes are the best for this, and it’s a great side for my Lamb and Beef Kebabs. My hubby doesn’t like the mayo loaded potato salads that are commonly available; so I make this version for him, and if I’m honest I prefer it now myself. I often make it...

Carrot and Cumin Bread Rolls
These are lovely soft and moist buns and they have a really interesting taste, so you could just have them on their own. I’ve made them for breakfast as they are much quicker than traditional white rolls. They are brilliant as burger buns as they are slightly dense...
Quinoa Pilaf with Fennel and Chicken
For years I though I didn’t like fennel as I was told it tastes like aniseed, but it’s very subtle, so give this a try you never know you might like it!
