Apparently, making food look effortless requires a Apparently, making food look effortless requires a rather extraordinary amount of effort. 🎬

A 5am start, a kitchen temporarily converted into a film studio, three cameras, enough crockery to open a small restaurant and more footage than any sensible person could possibly need. 🙃

And that’s before the editing begins.

All in the name of a good dinner.

A little glimpse behind the scenes at Hey Lolly. There’s the planning, the recipe development, the endless camera angles, the frankly ridiculous number of photographs taken to find the one and, of course, a mountain of washing-up.

And yet, I absolutely love it. 🫶

Taking a recipe from a scribbled idea to something worth sharing. The beautiful seasonal ingredients, the little details, the satisfaction of seeing it all come together and the considerable advantage of getting to eat the evidence afterwards.

I’ve even made a rare appearance on the other side of the camera. 🙈 The sous chef, meanwhile, continues to contribute very little beyond moral support and operating as a four-legged Hoover. 🤣🐾

Plenty of lovely new recipes coming your way. In the meantime, what would you like to see more of behind the scenes?

Time for a little dish & tell. 🍷🥧🐷 Pig’s head, b Time for a little dish & tell. 🍷🥧🐷 

Pig’s head, braised ox cheek… buttery greens. Tell me November’s arrived without telling me November’s arrived.

There’s a lot to love about Winsome. A kitchen in full flight, a dining room with an electric buzz and staff who seem genuinely delighted to have you there.

It’s a rather cool setting for a menu that makes absolutely no concessions. Rich, gutsy British cooking, it will positively encourage you to take a second glass of red and makes the onset of November seem considerably more appealing.

The terrine? Excellent.

The ox cheek pie? Everything you’d hope for beneath that golden crust.

And the madeleines? Well they have been occupying an unreasonable amount of my thoughts ever since… 

A very good reason to be in Manchester. As if one needed another.

I have 47 ideas for dinner until somebody actually I have 47 ideas for dinner until somebody actually asks me what I fancy. Then suddenly I’ve never eaten a meal in my life. 🤷‍♀️

Fortunately, past me was considerably more organised and actually wrote a few things down.

So here’s a little inspiration from the Hey Lolly recipe archives. All tried, tested and absolutely worth making again.

Recipes over on heylolly.co.uk 🍋

I’ll still spend twenty minutes deciding, obviously...

Another day, another unnecessary amount of burrata Another day, another unnecessary amount of burrata. 💁🏼‍♀️

This time, with cheat’s sun-dried tomatoes (an hour in the oven, considerably less Mediterranean sunshine required), homemade pistachio pesto and a golden, lemony basil crumb.

A little taste of Puglia, courtesy of a British postcode and a fairly enthusiastic approach to olive oil.

Glug generously 😏

🍂 1 November. We have a peculiar habit of keeping 🍂 1 November.

We have a peculiar habit of keeping things ‘for best’. The beautiful ceramics stay in a cupboard, the linen is saved for guests, and the candlesticks only seem to clock in when December arrives.

I’ve never quite seen the sense in it. An ordinary lunch is as good an occasion as any. And that, broadly speaking, is the spirit of November on Hey Lolly.

There’s going to be a bit more Mediterranean cooking for colder days, quite a lot of butter beans, roasted vegetables and, inevitably, more burrata... 

There will be a few more reviews, alongside some new places and discoveries worth sharing. And since November apparently makes discussing Christmas socially acceptable, I’m turning my attention to the festive table. Think beautiful ceramics, thoughtful little finds and food made for lunches that have absolutely no intention of ending on time.

My Mediterranean Christmas table edit will be published shortly, with plenty more seasonal inspiration to come.

Delicious and easy food to make at home, interesting places to visit and a reminder to stop saving the nice things for special occasions.

The good plates are coming out. 🤎
