Water Cress and Edamame Cream Soup With Crispy Bacon

Water Cress and Edamame Cream Soup With Crispy Bacon I was having lunch recently with my great mates, Spencer and Tobias. Whilst we were eating they started talking about this amazing soup they had eaten recently. Tobias had stolen the recipe from the restaurant and had also recreated it already for personal consumption. So now as a third hand-me-down, I also stole it, but made a few of my own twists and turns. So from a water cress and pea soup I created my own version, here is Water Cress ...

Cajun salmon

Cajun Salmon I have stolen this from my mate, and ex Chef, Rich. Well actually he did share it with me. I was at a loose end tonight re what to do for dinner, and add to that, that the Kennett's are disappearing to Cambodia tomorrow. Luckily the little light bulb popped up and I remember Rich's recipe for Cajun Salmon. The wife would love it I thought. It turned out to be an absolute belter. Surprising myself, as always, when cooking fish as I cannot taste it. I think it looks bloody amazing ...

The American Club

The American Club It's the last Friday of the month, and that means it is BeefSteak & Burgundy lunchtime. A gathering of fine fellows who all have a liking of fine dining and drinking. We laugh. We chat. No work talk. No mobile phones. It is an institution that truly is wonderful. Today we dined for lunch at The American Club. So there you go folks, my first experience of The American Club fare. It was OK. It was not a meal that I would say would drag me back to ...

Chicken & Bacon Pot Pie

Chicken & Bacon Pot Pie Whilst reading my mate Anthony Bourdain's new book, Appetites a Cookbook, I saw this recipe for Chicken Pot Pie. It immediately threw me back to the one I had recently in New York. So, thought I, for Sunday dinner my mission is to create my very own from these two experiences. As you will see, I did, but of course changed it so it became mine, ha ha. It is now Chicken & Bacon Pot Pie. The Americans tend to have this is a bottomless pie, only with the ...

Beef with baby kai lan, ginger, garlic, soy and oyster sauce

Beef with baby kai lan, ginger, garlic, soy and oyster sauce Beef with baby kai lan, ginger, garlic, soy and oyster sauce, was a new recipe I created this day. A three-in-one if you will. This was supposed to be a quick lunch for the family before Jude's 1st birthday party. I grabbed a couple of bits from the fridge and few more from the supermarket and I was set. This is all vibrant in colour, as you'll see, and very complementary to each other in the taste department. It looks good, but it ...

Roasted bone marrow and peaches

Roasted bone marrow and peaches I bet you are thinking; "What is he on today? He's cooking roasted bone marrow and peaches." I appreciate that this could sound rather a tad strange as a combination, but believe me these are perfect bed fellows. Read on my friends. This is actually quite an easy dish to make, and is seriously, seriously amazing on flavour. You simply have to try my roasted bone marrow and peaches. However bone marrow can challenge certain pallets, as it is a tad ...

Deconstructed and reconstructed avocados

Deconstructed and reconstructed avocados I saw some pictures somewhere of a really interesting concept for an avocado type dish and thought I'll have a go at something similar, and in turn created my deconstructed and reconstructed avocados. This is a superb side dish or starter. It's quite acidic so it would be great with beef, or something with a strong sauce to cut through that. Plus I think my deconstructed and reconstructed avocados looks really nice back in the skin/shell. OK ...
