Hello!
Sorry I've been a bit quiet, just spent a week in NOT so sunny Cornwall, getting stuck in torrential rain but still resolutely eating lots of ice cream!
So not a recipe for now but instead a quick top tip
Mash potato for one
Instant mash potato is one of those things that's not even worth putting the kettle on for, BUT
Instead of peeling, chopping and boiling potatoes in a pan, instead keep the skin on, prick it all over and put in the microwave for at least 5 mins (for a small potato) you can feel when its done if you give it a squeeze and it's very soft, then simply scoop out the insides into a bowl, batter around with a spoon and add whatever bits you like to add (for me it's just a knob of butter and some seasoning when I'm keeping it simple) make it as simple or as complicated as you like!
This also works for sweet potatoes!

Plein Temps Tout?
Roughly translates as 'full time everything!' Leading such a busy life, like so many of us. It's easy to fall into the trap of convenience over quality. But ready meals, sauces in jars and processed food always tasted a bit naff to me. Now cooking from scratch is a big part of my home life and I'm always out to convert people who think they can't, for a number of reasons. I'm always inspired to try new ideas and flavours, and when things work I'll put them on here, alongside some classics of course!
