Cheese Stuffed Tex-Mex Chicken Meatballs -Slow Cooker
This is a real child friendly dish so much so I bet this very quickly becomes a firm family favorite for many households around Ireland. You can choose to leave the chills out if you prefer. This dish can be done in the oven or your slow cooker, I include methods for both in the […]
Smoked Haddock/Coley with a Mustard and Onion Cream
Smoked haddock brings back many happy childhood memories. I remember mum cooking it for us when I was a kid, she poached it in milk laced with sliced onions and chopped parsley both fresh from the garden. She would make a sauce from the milk when the fish was cooked then serve these with a […]
Thai Chicken Croquettes
These little croquettes are such a simple treat to make. They work as a dinner, with your favourite curry sauce, with a salad or even as a snack with a dip. They are a little time consuming to make but this doesn’t mean they are difficult to make at all, the total opposite in fact. […]
Crispy Sweet Potato Wedges
How do you get sweet potato fries or wedges crispy? This is a question I get asked a lot, I learnt to do it in work so had no idea so many struggled to make them crispy. The secret is to add the salt and hour before so it helps drain moisture from the sweet […]

Whole Roast Thai Chicken
Most of us are familiar with the traditional roast chicken in some form or other. This is a simple twist on this. It makes a great family meal or is even better portioned before cooking then cooking on the BBQ. The longer you can leave it marinade the better so try to give it 2 […]
Sweet Vegetable Soup
As always, I generally don’t bother making soup unless I think there’s a chance the kids will eat it. That, unfortunately, means nothing like lentils or barley and not a lump or bump in sight. So I always try to come up with a combo of flavours they’ll enjoy while at the same time […]
