Baked Salmon, Baby Potatoes & Peas Recipe 🐟🥔🫛

Ingredients (Serves 2):
* 2 salmon fillets
* 400 g baby potatoes
* 150 g frozen peas
* 1 tsp all-purpose seasoning or mixed herbs
* ½ lemon
* 1 tbsp oil
* Salt and pepper
Method:
1. Heat the oven to 200°C (180 fan).
2. Toss the baby potatoes in the oil with salt and pepper and roast for 15 to 18 minutes.
3. Season the salmon and add it to the tray for the last 12 to 15 minutes.
4. Cook the peas for 3 to 4 minutes.
5. Squeeze the lemon over the salmon and serve.

Tip: Squeeze the lemon after the salmon comes out of the oven, not before it goes in. Lemon juice cooks off under heat, so all the fresh part of it is lost by the time it reaches the plate.

save this so you do not lose it.

Caribbean Garden Salad Recipe 🥗🥑🌶️

Ingredients:
1 lettuce, chopped
1 cucumber, sliced
2 tomatoes, chopped
1/2 red onion, sliced
1/2 avocado, sliced
Juice of 1 lime
2 tbsp olive oil
Salt and black pepper

Method:
Place all the vegetables into a large bowl.
Mix the lime juice, olive oil, salt and pepper together.
Pour over the salad and toss gently before serving.

Tip: Put the lime juice on the avocado slices before anything else goes in the bowl. It stops them browning, so the salad still looks fresh an hour later.

Easy Rice Pudding Recipe 🍚🥛🌰

Ingredients (Serves 2):
* 100 g pudding rice
* 600 ml milk
* 2 tbsp sugar
* ½ tsp vanilla
* Pinch of nutmeg or cinnamon
* Raisins (optional)
Method:
1. Put the rice, milk and sugar in a pot.
2. Simmer on a low heat for 30 to 35 minutes, stirring regularly.
3. Stir in the vanilla and the nutmeg or cinnamon.
4. Add raisins if you want them.
5. Serve warm.
Tip: Take it off while it still looks slightly loose. Rice pudding keeps thickening in the hot pot after the heat is off, so the one that looks perfect in the pan is stiff by the time it reaches the bowl.

Easy Apple Crumble Recipe 🍏🥧🍨

Ingredients (Serves 2):
* 3 apples, peeled and sliced
* 1 tbsp sugar
* ½ tsp cinnamon
* 100 g plain flour
* 60 g butter
* 50 g sugar
* Custard or ice cream to serve (optional)
Method:
1. Heat the oven to 190°C (170 fan).
2. Toss the apples with the tablespoon of sugar and the cinnamon and put them in a dish.
3. Rub the flour and butter together with your fingers until it looks like breadcrumbs, then stir in the 50 g of sugar.
4. Scatter the crumble over the apples.
5. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes until golden.
6. Serve with custard or ice cream.
Tip: Use the butter straight from the fridge and stop rubbing the moment it looks like breadcrumbs. Warm butter turns to paste, and paste bakes into a lid instead of a crumble.

Baked Chicken, Rice & Steamed Cabbage Recipe 🍗🍚🥬

Ingredients (Serves 2):
* 4 small chicken thighs or 2 chicken breasts
* 1 tsp all-purpose seasoning
* 1 tsp paprika
* ½ tsp dried thyme
* 1 tbsp oil
* 150 g long-grain rice
* ½ small cabbage, sliced
* 1 small carrot, sliced (optional)
* Salt and pepper
Method:
1. Heat the oven to 200°C (180 fan).
2. Season the chicken with the all-purpose seasoning, paprika, thyme, oil, salt and pepper.
3. Bake for 30 to 35 minutes until cooked through.
4. Rinse the rice and cook in about 300 ml water for 12 to 15 minutes.
5. Steam the cabbage and carrot for 6 to 8 minutes.
6. Plate the chicken with the rice and the cabbage.
Tip: Start the rice when the chicken has about fifteen minutes left, not when the tray goes in. Rice that sits done with the lid off goes dry, and this way the chicken, the rice and the cabbage all land hot at the same time.

Sausages and Mashed Potato Recipe 🌭🥔🥬

Ingredients (Serves 2):
* 4 to 6 sausages
* 500 g potatoes, peeled and chopped
* 25 g butter
* Splash of milk
* ½ tsp dried thyme or all-purpose seasoning
* Salt and pepper
* Gravy (optional)
Method:
1. Heat the oven to 200°C (180 fan) and bake the sausages for 25 to 30 minutes, turning once.
2. Boil the potatoes for 15 to 20 minutes until soft.
3. Mash the potatoes with the butter, a splash of milk, salt and pepper.
4. Serve with gravy if you want it.

Tip: Butter into the potatoes before the milk, always. The butter coats the starch first, and that is what stops the mash going gluey when the milk goes in.

Chocolate Mug Cake Recipe 🍫☕🥄

Ingredients (Makes 1 mug cake):
* 4 tbsp all-purpose flour
* 2 tbsp sugar
* 2 tbsp cocoa powder
* ¼ tsp baking powder
* Pinch of salt
* 3 tbsp milk
* 2 tbsp vegetable oil
* ¼ tsp vanilla extract
Method:
1. Mix all dry ingredients in a microwave-safe mug.
2. Add milk, oil, and vanilla. Stir until smooth.
3. Microwave for 60 to 90 seconds.
4. Let cool for 2 minutes and serve.
Tip: Stop at 60 seconds and look at it before you add more time. A mug cake keeps cooking inside the hot mug after the microwave stops, so the one that comes out looking slightly underdone is the one that ends up soft.
