Spaghetti Vongole
Vongole means “clams” in Italian and Spaghetti Vongole has stayed close to the original recipes from the coastal regions of Italy. Add tomatoes instead of greens if you like, but do go to a trusted fishmonger for the best seafood.

Horseradish Salmon Burgers with Dill Pickle Mayo
Horseradish Salmon Burgers are a pantry ready meal, quick to make with a salad and full of flavour. We love a Fresh Corn Salad alongside, but really anyone will work well. The Dill Pickle Mayo takes it to another level, close to a Tartar Sauce, …
Jalapeño Cream Cheese Dip

Turmeric Chickpeas with Spinach and Shishito Peppers
A hearty vegetarian meal, packed with flavour and topped with Shishito Peppers. Shishito Peppers are small, green peppers from Japan. Similar to a Spanish Padron pepper or a skinny Jalapeño, but nowhere near as spicy, except for the odd one. We like to serve it …
