Plates by Purnell’s Review
Plates by Purnell’s review, gorgeous dining room, good service and plates that look the part but were pricey, underwhelming and forgettable.
Leek and Gruyere Pasta Bake. Thrifty yet Generous.
Creamy leek and gruyere pasta bake with mascarpone, double cream and a golden, nubbly top. Cosy, weeknight-easy, perfect with crisp salad.
Pork and Stuffing Roast Bombs with Garlic Jam.
All the roast vibes, none of the timetable. Crispy pork & stuffing roast bombs hiding a molten garlic-jam centre. Save for Sunday and thank me later.
Ultimate Macadamia Brownie Bites
There’s something almost indecent about the texture of these — crisp-edged, fudgy-centred, warm from the oven or cool and dense from the fridge, they offer everything I want from a brownie… only in one-bite portions, which somehow makes them feel all the more dangerous.
Piccalilli Nottingham Review. Candlelit Comfort in a Hidden Courtyard
This Piccalilli Nottingham review covers a softly lit dining room tucked off the city centre, plates of treacle-baked ham, bright, sharp fish and a chocolate, coffee and whisky sponge that almost finished me off. Warm service, understated elegance and food I’d happily eat again.
Celeriac and Bramley Apple Soup
When I crave quiet something comforting to eat, celeriac and Bramley apple soup answers, nutty, earthy and tart, all at the same time. Roast it with Bramley apples and you get something totally unexpected, creamy, sharp, earthy and bright.
Pigs in Blankets Yorkshire Puddings with Brie & Caramelised Onion
Pigs in Blankets Yorkshire puddings belong to the season of fizz and second helpings.
Pistachio Caramel Chocolate Chip Cookies (No Butter Recipe)
Oil-based, bakery-style no-butter pistachio caramel cookies with chocolate chips. Best devoured on bake day.
Cowboy Taco Soup. Throw it in a Pot and Call it Dinner. Yeehaw.
Smoky Cowboy Taco Soup packed with beans, corn and peppers. Finish with lime, avocado and chips. Meaty or veggie, on the table in 35 minutes.
Pumpkin, Maple & Pecan Muffins. Soft, Spiced and Slightly Sticky.
Soft pumpkin muffins with maple and pecans, topped with burnt-butter caramel cream cheese frosting, PB cups and chocolate-covered pretzels.
