Michel said in a radio 5 live interview that you don’t need a protein in every meal. That is how I see things but you need someone of Michels reputation to nail this home. Relates to meat feast: is it time to change the way we eat meat? come to the table describes meal times in france.…

What to do when you feel lazy and don’t feel like cooking a complicated recipe? Usually I go for something simple like grilled or fried. Vegetables are really easy and fast to fry or grill, and if you have some steaks or fillets everything will be done in 20…

We just got a new soup maker. So as you can imagine I’ve been looking for reasons to use it. The dream is gorgeous soups with hardly any effort. The soup maker should do most of the work. Ingredients Parsnips Carrots 1 onion Stock Creme fraiche Seasoning Instructions prepare veg and place in soup…

Another way of making meals full of taste but simple to make is to mix cooking methods. I’m being very liberally in my use of the term cooking method. Tonight I used a roasted chicken breast that i’d frozen a few weeks ago from a freshly roasted chicken i’d bought from the supermarket. Rather than…
