Raspberry Jam Puddle Brownies

What’s better than a regular chocolate brownie?! Raspberry jam puddle brownies. The brownie recipe is good, but the jam makes it! From Nadiya’s Kitchen by Nadiya Hussain. Even served on one of Nadiya’s pretty homeware range plates πŸ’–

Nadiya’s Rhubarb Ripple Ice Cream

Rhubarb ripple ice cream from Nadiya’s British Food Adventure by Nadiya Hussain. Similar to raspberry ripple, but with (oddly enough πŸ˜‚) a rhubarby vibe. I’ve bought extra pink rhubarb to freeze and make this later in the year too. Might even do the custard biscuits to make ice cream sandwiches then too!

Chicken, Red Pepper and Mango Salad with Ghee Roasties

Chicken, red pepper and mango salad with coconut dressing with ghee roasties

This supper is from Nadiya’s Family Favourites by Nadiya Hussain. We all loved this salad, I baked the chicken for ease (instead of frying). The little balls are crispy coated peanuts, Nadiya said she liked the chilli ones best.  I’d never bought them before, but they are a lovely crunchy addition to the salad.  In the background is Nadiya’s ghee roasties (same book), they are so good!

Donal’s Char Sui Sausage Rolls


This is an online recipe from Donal’s Asian Baking TV series (Foodnetwork UK website). Char Sui Sausage Rolls. Such a fab recipe, different enough to be intriguing, but familiar enough to be comfort food. Delicious either way! Some salad and your supper is done.

Nadiya’s Rainbow Fudge

Chocolate Rainbow fudge

This one comes from Nadiya Hussain’s Bake Me a Celebration Story, one of her children’s books that came out last year. I’m such a Nadiya fan I bought it anyway! This is a super sweet treat, I made it a little less so by using two thirds milk choc to one third dark.  πŸ™‚

Supper from Mary Berry Classic

'
Spicy Chorizo Pasta

Mary Berry’s book from last year was called Classic.  I made our supper from it last night. I have a chorizo pasta that I’ve been making for years from Rachel Allen, and if it’s the chunky chorizo I have that is what I make.  This one here is made with the (salami style) sliced chorizo packets. It’s light and quick.

When I was looking through the book I came across the recipe for these chocolate truffle pots, which I can remember making last year, and had to make them again.  They are like a milk chocolate Bailey’s mousse with a digestive / Baileys / chocolate truffle on top. They are fun and good for a little treat on a weeknight. πŸ™‚

Ina’s Foolproof Blondies

 Chocolate Chunk Blondies

I’ve made these quite a few times now, and they are delicious. I half the recipe amount and bake in a 7 inch tin. I’ve made them with choc chunks and choc chips and they have always turned out well.

My daughter decided she wanted hers warm with cream last night, and what a great call that was! A few seconds in the microwave and tah dah - warm cookie puddings! From Barefoot Contessa Foolproof by Ina Garten.
