Strawberry & Fresh Buffalo Mozzarella Salad

This is a magnificent salad. It is fresh, fragrant, looks gorgeous and tastes like summer. Take the pressure off this Christmas and make this salad part of your table.

Pickled Cherries

Pickled Cherries

These are fabulous with meats such as pork, duck and venison. I like to reduce the brine a little and pour over crispy roast pork. They’re also delicious over vanilla ice cream and make a fantastic gift!

Corned Beef

Corned Beef (as part of a Ploughman’s Grazing Table)

Campsite Ocean Trout & Rice Pilaf Loaded with Lemon & Fresh Herbs

Campsite Ocean Trout & Rice Pilaf Loaded with Lemon & Fresh Herbs

This is a bit of a free-for-all. This combination of ingredients is pretty fail-safe and all together tastes amazing. Tilda Fragrant Jasmine Rice is an easy addition to any camping pack. This is also great in a fry pan on a regular stove — maybe just halve the ingredients if you are not cooking up for a crowd.
