Peppers with Mozzarella and Anchovy Breadcrumbs

I have been making this for years. It is a recipe that brings with it the taste of summer whatever the weather. Anchovy and chilli are an iconic duo in my opinion and add a wonderful hit of umami flavour to the crunchy breadcrumbs.

Spice roast acorn squash with girolles and crispy kale

When it comes to squash there is little I do not love. I’ve a soft spot for all of them; Butternut – especially with sage, Delicata – sweet and delicate as her name suggests, Gem – small and humble, Onion – wonderfully soft and buttery and very very good spread on toast with a little garlic and black pepper. Needless to say my ‘ode to squash’ could go on

Charred aubergine with blood orange, tahini milk and lemon oil

I love the texture of aubergine, slightly meaty and incredibly satisfying it is a great one for when eating vegetarian or vegan.
