First of all I have to apologise for not writing a recipe post for a while. In all honesty, I mainly tend to bake in the Autumn/Winter as it's the time of year when all I want is comfort food. There's something really relaxing about getting out the mixing bowl and having something beautifully aromatic … Continue reading GF Roasted Plum Cake
Warning: these gorgeous choc-chip, flapjack-like cookies won't last long (not in my or my children's presence anyway!). I can't take credit for the recipe as it's my gluten-free adaptation of Annabel Karmel's 'Coconut Kisses'. Do use the GF brands that suit you, as I'm aware everyone has different sensitivities. (If you're not gluten-free just substitute … Continue reading GF Coconut Oat Cookies
6 years ago, a couple of weeks before Christmas I went gluten-free.It was a real life-changer as I had been in pain for 4 years. I know now that after having my second child (having children is often a trigger) I can't eat gluten or quinoa. It had been a long old road and was … Continue reading Gluten-free mince pies
Well, it's been a while since I did a food post so I thought it should be a good one! I don't think it's much of a secret that Heston Blumenthal's "Dinner" at the Mandarin Oriental near Hyde Park is pretty good but I thought I'd share my experience anyway. This was the third time I've … Continue reading Heston Blumenthal’s Dinner, London
Making Rocky Road is hardly rocket science but I thought I'd share my gluten-free recipe as I found it tricky getting the right biscuits and the right balance of ingredients. Children and adults love Rocky Road so I wanted to make a version that we could all eat. Even though it's gluten-free, my Rocky Road aficionado/ eldest son … Continue reading Gluten-Free Rocky Road
Helene Darroze's 2 Michelin Star restaurant at The Connaught Hotel in Mayfair has been on my 'to eat at' list for quite some time.So when I just happened to be in the area the other week I thought I'd try my luck at dropping in & seeing if they had a table. (As a side note … Continue reading Helene Darroze at The Connaught
Ok, so I know this sounds weird to some people but you know how great salted caramel and salted chocolate tastes, then you have to try this?! For those who don't like salt & sweet, this is still really good without the salt (similar in a way to treacle tart). For this reason, I actually serve … Continue reading Gluten-Free Salted Honey Pie
This is a really quick and easy recipe, which tastes great no matter whether you are gluten-intolerant or not. No funny grainy textures or anything, just beautifully soft, moist bananery yumminess! I find it's better if cooked the day before you eat it for some reason. I love having a few recipes like this up … Continue reading Gluten-free Banana Cake
Whenever I visit a city, town or village, I always like to go to the local food market. It is here you usually find all the locals and can get a real feel of what it's like to live in such a place. I love the buzz, colours and smells and it's surprising what produce … Continue reading Snapshots of Venice
