The best Sushi Recipes (How to make Sushi)
We love homemade sushi, not only is it delicious, but with a bit of practice it is fairly easy to make. It is also a great way to get the kids involved in the kitchen with the rolling process. I was pleasantly surprised to find a piece of Scottish Salmon in the yellow sticker section of my local supermarket recently.
Easy Chicken Satay with sticky rice and cucumber salad
Sometimes you need something quick and easy for your mid-week meals and this Chicken Satay recipe fits the bill well. Served with sticky rice and a cucumber salad, turns a traditional snack into an evening meal rather nicely.
Being unusually organised, I remembered to get the chicken breast out of the freezer in the morning, allowing them to be thoroughly defrosted by early evening.
It may appear to be a large list of ingredients. However a lot of it you may already have in the cupboard. It came in at just over £5 but did make enough for my lunch the next day.

Another perfect midweek masterpiece type recipe. This Greek feta traybake recipe is quick, easy and delicious. The cost came in at well under £5.00 to serve all four of us and I actually had most of the ingredients in the house already.

Thai Green Curry Recipe. AD
Thai Green Curry Recipe We love Thai food. The aromas, the fresh spices and most of all the flavours. So when
Mae Jum
got in touch asking if we wanted to try some of their spice mixes, I didn't hesitate to say yes! Within a couple of days, a beautifully packed box of six different Thai Curry pastes arrived through my letterbox.Jatuporn or Jum as she is known by friends and family was born in a small market town in the south of Thailand. She moved to the UK to raise her family. As they started to fly the nest, she decided the nicest gift a mum (Mae in Thai) could give, would be to share the secrets to the recipes they grew up enjoying.The Mae Jum journey had started.This is the recipe for a Prawn Green Curry using one of the Mae Jum spice mixes. We have also tried the Massaman Curry, which was equally as delicious, so make sure you head over to my social media to see pictures of that too. Thai green curry is a house favourite and is so easy to make at home. We used prawns this time, however, if you don't fancy prawns, simply substitute them for pork, chicken or bulk it up with seasonal vegetables if you are vegetarian.

Simple summer prawns recipe for one
So, with the kids off to their Mum's for a few days, it was time for this dad to let his hair down. Sadly not this week though. Work, housework and other stuff to catch up on…… I knew before I left for work, that I was going to be late home, so rummaged through the freezer and stumbled on some prawns I brought when on a yellow sticker at the supermarket, so got them out to defrost and trotted off to work. Simple summer prawns it was going to be.
