  • A cheap and cheerful shakshuka for dinner tonight, with chickpeas swirled in a smoky paprika tomato sauce with wilted spinach and feta, topped with a sprinkling of cilantro (coriander). Accompanied, of course, by a lot of hand-wringing, disbelief and wine. So much wine. . . . . . #food #targetstyle #thatsdarling #thehappynow #thekitchn #instayum #instafood #igfoodie #f52grams #chefmode #instapic #droolclub #bhgfood #goodeats #eatfamous #hungry #foodgasm #honestcooking #foodgawker #foodgram #foodstagram #eatstagram #foodshare #dinnerparty #foodie #foodblog #eeeeeats #yum #shakshuka #onedishmeal

  • In the absence of friends, family and parties to celebrate both, I spent this holiday season baking. Really baking. Cookies. Breads. Chelsea buns. Cupcakes. A buche de Noel. This weekend was the finale of a season of sweets, starting with a pistachio and raspberry roulade and then, using the last remaining bits of cream and egg whites I had laying around, a glorious pavlova slathered with leftover lemon curd cream cheese and topped with a cloudy layer of soft whipped cream, berries and toasted almonds.
