Rhubarb and blood oranges crumble with barberries

I often face a question – where to find inspiration? I always say that I don’t need to search for it because all the most beautiful had been created by nature. I just need to go to farmer’s market and buy some seasonal goodies. I was wondering for a while what to cook with beautiful […]

Pie with red onions and cranberries

Autumn season is good not the only for it’s seasonal produce but also for holidays! And as Halloween and Bonfire Night are over this means that we can start to think about Christmas entirely. I will not surprise you if I’ll say that winter holidays are my favourite! First of all Christmas means a chance for […]

Pear & Cashew Sweet Scones

Here are some interesting thoughts about food. I am fond of homemade toothsome food, but I don’t like when it takes a lot of time to make it. Especially now, when I have a baby. In the matter of this I have some simple breakfast/lunch ideas which I just change every time by adding some […]

Apple Galettes with Walnut Dough

Few weeks ago I made these amazing autumn plum galettes and this week I decided to make classic ones with apples! I buy apples every Saturday at the local farmers market and then decide what to make with all of them. I use apples in pies, crumbles, salads. Today it is apple galettes. I added chopped walnuts […]

I also will be glad to hear about your favourite food ideas! The fall season also means plenty of vegetables. Very rich, deep tastes of butternut squash, […]

Hand Pies with Eggs & Greens

This is one of my mum’s recipes. I like making recipes which my mum used to make many years ago for my own family. Isn’t it magical? I’ve changed my mum’s recipe a little which I so loved in my childhood and now. Hand pies with the eggs+onions+dill filling. Actually I’ve changed the only dough: my mum used an […]

Yoghurt Whole Wheat Flatbread

Summer is perfect for one-day trips, picnics and just for enjoying a lunch sitting on the grass in the park. London parks are so overcrowded in this period. And it’s amazing! Me, Nick and our beagle Chantal adore to go to the parks on weekends. I like to make lunch, pack it and eat it outdoors. […]

Blueberry Brown Sugar Scones

I don’t want to write a lot about scones. You know how much I like this kind of pastry because of their simplicity as well as their taste. Even if you are afraid to make pastry you might make good scones! Few days ago while deciding which recipe to share I thought that I have a […]
