Over the holidays I ordered some apple trees; some for home and a couple for the allotment. As they could turn up any day, I took advantage of the ok weather and headed off to our plot first thing and began to clear the wasteland at the back of the beds where they will be [...]

I have been watching Hugh’s Fish Fight this week.

Some of our more interesting suppers from March included: Conghiglie with Smoked Haddock, Bacon & Broccoli – (March Scans p7). A little indulgent as this uses crème fraiche, but can ease your conscience by using half fat! Really nice flavours – the addition of lemon zest lifts the flavour and stops it being [...]
