    Pearl Barley Salad

    I’m working through my store cupboard ingredients one by one to try and rotate my stock. This pearl barley salad is a different use for a grain I’d normally use for stocks and soups.

    ; Also known as the No Need To Knead Loaf. I’m a sucker for supermarket specials. It’s for that reason I should be banned from the local Lidl, I tend to go down to the shop and stock up on the discount fruit & veg, marvel at the savings I’ve made on those and then spend all I’ve saved on bits & bobs from the baskets on the middle aisle.

    Jubilee Leftover Lunch

    03/06/2012 /6 Comments

    This is a basic coronation chicken recipe which I use for my leftover roast chicken, particularly if I’ve made a roast on a Sunday. You can tweak the fillings to the tastes that your children have and I prefer it on crackers but it’s perfect in wraps, sandwiches, pitta breads and on its own. It seems appropriate to use it today, on the jubilee as it’s based upon the original Coronation Chicken Recipe! However it’s doubly the right time to use it as the Easy Food Home-Cook Hero Awards were launched for 2012 within the past week.  I was one of the finalists in the Lunchbox Challenge section last year…

    Ham Hock Terrine

    26/04/2012 /3 Comments

    Ham hock is one of those little-used cuts in Ireland. Used so seldom that I normally have to request that the butcher keeps some for me and I rarely, if ever, see it on a supermarket shelf.  I don’t know what it is but it seems that any cut of meat that involves a bone or messy work people seem to shy away from cooking.  There really is no need to be so worried about cooking any kind of meat on the bone so long as you have done your research right, anyway cuts of meat on the bone lend themselves to long, slow cooking to make the most of…

    Jar Salad

    13/04/2012 /7 Comments

    In my “celtic tigress” days I would have thought nothing of roasting a chicken, picking what meat I liked and then throwing away the carcass.  It’s far from throwing away the carcass I was reared and my mother still makes her own stock from roast chicken which I now do as well. If I’m careful 1 medium chicken will do us for 3 meals and if I have potatoes left over from dinner it also makes a batch of my potato scones.
