The Stillness Between The Seasons 🎃 🍂✨ St The Stillness Between The Seasons 🎃 🍂✨ Step into the misty calm at Clumber Park's walled kitchen garden, where autumn lingers in dahlias, pumpkins, and crates of apples. Keats’ Ode to Autumn whispers through the fading fog beyond the garden gate—an ode to quiet abundance and timeless beauty.

Sea You In Sicily 🎣🇮🇹 There’s somethin Sea You In Sicily 🎣🇮🇹 There’s something undeniably seductive about this kind of dinner.

Not because it tries too hard — in fact, it barely tries at all And I won’t pretend it always turns out quite the same way. But that’s the joy of it, the caponata is forgiving. The fish is fast. The oven does most of the heavy lifting while you pour something cold and sit down to wait for the scent of garlic and tomatoes to fill the room.

Serve it straight from the tray, not much more is needed.

Baked, Flaked…. GONE 🐟🐟 Flaky cod, smoky Baked, Flaked…. GONE 🐟🐟 Flaky cod, smoky chorizo, and soft roasted tomatoes — this recipe looks after itself in the oven but tastes like you’ve gone to real effort. I love the way the chorizo oil seeps into everything — the potatoes, the fish, even the edges of the tray. Bold, rustic, and a little bit indulgent. You’ll need extra crusty bread for mopping up 🫠 Full recipe 👉 https://tinyurl.com/2v6nmj43 #BakedCod #CodAndChorizo #EasyMeals #DinnerInspo #EasyDinnerRecipes #WeeknightDinner #SeafoodRecipe #FlavourFirst #ComfortFood #HomeCooking #FoodBlogUK #FlexitarianRecipes #EatMoreFish #HeyLolly

There’s a kind of culinary mischief in this chic There’s a kind of culinary mischief in this chicken and tofu, in a creamy tikka sauce that really shouldn’t work — but here it does, beautifully. I started with a vegan tikka masala, but that chicken breast in the fridge wouldn’t leave me alone. So I let it in. The tofu gets crisp, the sauce turns velvety, and the onion bhajis add that satisfyingly crunchy contrast. It’s not about rules. It’s about what’s in your kitchen, what you crave, and what surprises you.
