Recipe by: Sara Blanchard

A gorgeously rich and creamy dish with chicken breast fillets, fresh mushrooms and bacon. Though the chicken cooks in the oven for up to an hour, the dish requires little preparation and the pan sauce is quick to make.

Banana fritters in coconut batter

Recipe by: Sarah

Be the first to review it!

Try this Asian twist on regular banana fritters with sesame seeds and coconut. These are best served hot, but chances are they'll be gone before they have a moment to cool down. My kids request these all the time and I've started buying glutinous rice flour regularly just for this recipe!

Charlie's Moussaka

Recipe by: CharlieB

Be the first to review it!

My version of this classic Greek dish. My family love it and its great for a dinner party too. Make it the previous day for the best flavour and add/make the topping on the day of eating! Serve with crusty bread and a Greek or mixed salad. Tip - You can make this without pre-frying the aubergine, just layer the raw slices (no thicker than .5cm) as described and add 10 mins to final cooking time.

Another great week-night curry. Apricots, cumin, turmeric, cardamom, ginger, and chillies almost overpower the chicken. It's sure to become a family favourite.

Chicken fajitas with tomato salsa

Recipe by: Azmina Govindji

Be the first to review it!

Although in northern Mexico ‘fajitas’ refers to a specific cut of beef, elsewhere in the world the term has come to describe a combination of sizzling pan-grilled chicken strips with peppers and onions, wrapped in a flour tortilla. The dish has very little fat, but lots and lots of fresh flavours.
