• Food Guide: Copenhagen

  

  I recently went on an amazing five day trip to the beautiful city of Copenhagen. I had a great time in one of the most relaxed, safe and interesting cities I’ve been to in Europe. Copenhagen is often coined the cool kid on the block when it comes to all things scandi, and my experience…

• Thai Butternut Squash Skewers with Coconut Sauce and Rice

  

  It’s been ages since I’ve eaten or cooked thai food so instead of a typical green or red curry I decided to make these squash kebabs. I added a little bit of peanut butter on the squash as it roasted and a squeeze of lime to add some flavour and tie it in to the…

• Sweet Potato Kofte with Lemon, Basil and Red Pepper Quinoa

  

  I came up with this recipe in a moment of inspiration in bed this morning, I’ve been trying to use up my hoard of sweet potatoes for ages! This is a really delicious way to do that, loosely based on Jamie Oliver’s lamb kofte in flavour. I used honey and crushed sunflower seeds for texture…

• Food Spot: KERB does Alchemy – Southbank Centre

  

  On a quest to use my bank holiday weekend wisely, I decided to give the much praised Southbank centre market a try.  The eastern inspired food market is set out by hungerford bridge next to Royal Festival Hall, only a few minutes walk from my halls so I don’t quite know why I never thought…

• Pea, Feta and Spring Onion Fritters with Fresh Tomato Sauce

  

  I really enjoyed making these fritters, a little different to ones I’ve made before now as they have a slight variation in texture. These have a summer feel to them with the freshness of spring onion and pea but the tomato sauce with thyme also adds a warmth to the dish that makes it really…

• Food Spot: Grain Store

  

  This was a real treat for me, having just finished my exams I wanted to celebrate so decided to pay a trip to the highly praised Grain Store for some lunch. Grain Store lies a rather uninspiring five minute walk fro King’s Cross Station in Granary Square close to industrial looking UAL buildings. The restaurant…

• Superfood Burger and Fries

  

  It’s been quite some time since I’ve written a post due to exam craziness so I thought I’d make something to reward myself and ease myself back into cooking. It’s really easy to get into a funk when you’re doing exams, eating rubbish, getting out of practice with cooking and eating out way too much…

• Piri Piri Butternut Squash and Sweetcorn Quinoa

  

  I’ve been really wanting to try using quinoa in a recipe, however the mess and faff has always put me off cooking it, despite the obvious health benefits. According to BBC Good Food, Quinoa is pretty much the perfect ingredient! It has twice the protein content of other grains such as rice or barley as…

• Food Spot: The Old Butcher’s Cafe

  

  I was recently told that about this restaurant by family, hidden away in small village Shepton Beauchamp, The Old Butcher’s Cafe serves lunches and a Friday night supper club that has proven extremely popular. The venue is small but set out in a lovely way, with the kitchen open for all to see whats going…

• Food Spot: The Trading Post Railway Carriage Cafe

  

  I’ve been back in Somerset for the Easter holidays and one of the things I most wanted to do was eat at the Trading Post’s Railway Carriage Cafe. Situated to the side of the farm shop, this cafe is, as it says, in the carriage of an old fashioned train. There are a few booth-type…
