This delicious dish from Hasan Semay’s Big Has Home cookbook makes a wonderful, summery lunch on its own but also works well as part of a more lavish spread. As suggested, we switched out the pastirma for chorizo (as that’s easier to find in our neck of the woods). The combination of flavours and textures ... Read more »
Chorizo, Goats Cheese & Cumin Borek Recipe by Sabrina Ghayour
I love the way that Sabrina Ghayour takes inspiration from the food traditions of the Middle East, and merges them with ideas and ingredients from around the world to create her own modern British, globally-influenced cooking. That’s very much the case for this Chorizo, Goats Cheese & Cumin Borek from Sabrina’s latest cookbook, Simply. As ... Read more »
Kavey’s Chorizo, Cod & Pea Fish Pie Recipe
Wary of degradation from a slightly longer than ideal stint in the freezer, I wondered what to make with our last portion of last year’s skrei (beautiful Norwegian cod from the Barents sea). Fish pie was on my mind, but I didn’t fancy the cod and boiled egg fish pie recipe we have made previously; ... Read more »
Chorizo, Pumpkin & Spinach Giant Couscous Salad
You’d think, wouldn’t you that, for people who’ve grown their own fruit and veg for over 15 years, the thrill of harvesting home grown produce would not quite as shiny as it once was? But you’d be wrong. I still get excited every time Pete brings in a bowl of fresh raspberries or tomatoes from ... Read more »
Recipe Video | Chorizo, Spinach, Onion & Potato Frittata
An affordable recipe perfect for alfresco dining, making use of British ingredients. That’s what I was asked to create when vouchercodes.co.uk invited me to film another recipe video with them. (For my first, I shared the recipe for my mum’s tandoori roast lamb, an alternative suggestion for Christmas dinner.) This time, I made a frittata, ... Read more »
Baked Chorizo, Cod & Potatoes
On a rainy day in February, when it seemed that half the country had turned into an inland sea, we unexpectedly found ourselves with over four kilos of incredibly fresh, top quality Skrei (line-caught Norwegian cod). We’d been expecting a far smaller delivery but a miscommunication somewhere along the line resulted in “individual portions” being ... Read more »
Turning Over A New Leaf In Wine + Recipe: Red Mullet & Moroccan Spiced Couscous With Chorizo
I’m not a huge wine drinker; the only kind of wines I usually drink and enjoy are syrupy sweet dessert wines such as Sauternes, Muscats and the like. Most regular wines I find too dry, even those most wine drinkers describe as medium or even medium sweet. My taste buds pick up the fruit, yes, ... Read more »
Chocolate & Chorizo Chilli Con Carne
We love visiting our friends Mark & Martine, not least because we always eat well and it’s nice to have a late night soak in their outdoor hot tub after a day pottering about. We’ve known them since uni days (longer ago than needs to be mentioned). Back then, I’d never have pegged Mark as ... Read more »
