My mum used to make my sister and I twice baked potatoes when we were kids. I don’t think they were called twice baked potatoes back then. We referred to them as ’those jacket spuds with the mashed up bacon and cheese inside’ when we regularly requested them. I posted the recipe for those ones when I first started the blog here. If you want to see the worst food photography in the world, you should definitely go and check them out....
Vanilla extract is all well and good to add extra flavour to cakes and bakes, but almond extract? Oh I love that stuff. I think I’d wear it as perfume if I wasn’t worried about the catnip effect it might have on Chris ???? Although I do more savoury recipes on Kitchen Sanctuary, I do enjoy a bit of baking. However…. I can never resist a Bakewell tart when I see one in the shop....
Baked Mississippi chicken breast recipe Lazy chicken dinner recipe using packet ingredients and one pan, why not. Life gets in the way sometimes and all you want is something you can just throw in the oven without the fuss. This recipe is so easy a child could make (under supervision of course) All you are doing is mixing au jus mix with ranch seasoning mix, you reduce the seasoning mix before adding it to the chicken breast because it can make the dish salty....
Food that tastes like a million dollars and yet is simple to make and made with every day ingredients. That is the absolute essence of the food I love and share here on RecipeTin Eats. This Parmesan Crusted Salmon is pretty much me on a plate. Well, on a platter. A large platter. Because the best sort of food is food that is shared with family and friends! 🙂 Every year, I do a Thanksgiving and Christmas menu (see below recipe for list with links)....
I love a great noodle stir fry, and this one has so much flavour! We don’t need to marinade the beef for this recipe - just a little sprinkling of garlic salt and black pepper, to compliment the flavour of the meat. The rest of the flavour (besides the noodles and vegetables), comes from the chow mein sauce, which is made from store-cupboard ingredients. So let’s take a look....
Drain, add some salt and (optional) butter, and enjoy! This truly easy side dish is ready in about 20 minutes. I’m always looking for interesting ways to cook vegetables. I have a large collection of vegetable recipes on this website. But sometimes the simplest recipes are the best. Green beans are now in season, and I find that when they are very fresh, the most enjoyable way for me to savor them is to simply boil them in salted water until tender-crisp....
When was the last time you turned on your oven broiler? A little confession here, ever since I started using the air fryer, I could count how many times, on one hand, I’ve used my oven broiler. It’s just so much easier to set the air fryer timer and forget about it until it beeps. But sometimes, you just can’t beat the flavor of chicken that has been cooked under a flame....
This is a reader-favourite recipe included by popular demand in my debut cookbook “Dinner”! Butter Chicken – a chef recipe! As someone who loves food with big, BIG flavours, it’s no surprise that Indian is one of my favourite foods. A good curry and binge watching Netflix is pretty much my idea of a perfect Friday night. #NanaAlert! 😂 As much as I love making Indian food at home, sometimes I find the list of ingredients daunting....
Started by Jus-Rol in 2007, this is one of those national days I can totally get behind. However, I do have a bone to pick with you Jus-Rol. Why the heck do you only sell pastry sheets in rectangles? Rectangles that are slightly too small for a regular pie dish. Meaning that : a. I have to Frankenstein two sheets together which means that: b. I have a seam running down the middle of my pie and: c: I have to trim loads of pastry off the edges which results in: d....
What do we need? Chicken thighs are great for homemade shawarma as they hold up well to intense, high-heat cooking, whilst retaining their juiciness. Spices - give a smoky, spicy, warming flavour to the chicken Tahini - essential for a good shawarma sauce - mixed with that Greek yogurt, plus garlic, dill, lemon, cumin, salt and pepper More grilled chicken recipes: Chicken Satay with Spicy Peanut Sauce Honey Garlic Chicken Skewers Cajun Chicken Noodle Salad Mexican Chicken Skewers with Picante Salsa Chicken Souvlaki with Homemade Tzatziki Easy Chicken Gyros...
Ahem. Is it bad that my brain works in that way? I do love raspberries all on their own, but have you ever tried filling them with Nutella? and then as if that isn’t enough, how about encasing that raspberry in a little chocolate sponge? hmmmm it’s hard to go back to that bare raspberry when you’re faced with a tray of these mini cakes. Fortunately they’re nice and small, so they make a fab afternoon snack when I’m starting to think about getting back on track after the holiday indulgence....
This recipe was created in collaboration with Num Noms as part of their #NumNomsCrazyCreations campaign. S’mores baked doughnuts are totally dangerous. A little nibble every time someone walks past the box in the kitchen, and twelve can be gone in less than 24 hours. That might be ok for a family of six, but there are only four of us! When Num Noms asked me to create a recipe based on their new Series 3 characters, I honed in on the doughnut and marshmallow straight away....
Easy coffee smoothie Recipe Hey lovelies, today I am showing you how to make the best coffee smoothie that is perfect for any time of the day just like this iced coffee. I prefer drinking it in the morning for breakfast, it is a good pick me up to face the day ahead. I like to add coffee ice cubes to my coffee smoothie as it gives the smoothie a better texture and taste as opposed to using cold coffee....
Can you only make a risotto using stock? Nope! This sauce base for this Creamy Tomato Risotto (my new favourite btw) is mostly made up of tinned tomatoes. Every bite of that tender rice is infused with rich tomato-iness, all finished off at the end with cream, parmesan and black pepper. And then of course we’re topping it off with crispy garlic crumbs - because you know how much I love my toppings (hello recipes with a million toppings such as my Spicy Parsnip and Sweet Potato Soup, upgraded Avocado and Eggs on Toast and Veggie Mexican Tortilla Pan)....
Jump to:📋 What do we need? 🔪 How to make Crispy Shredded Chilli Beef 🍲 More fantastic Asian-inspired recipes Crispy Chilli Beef 💬 Reviews This is one of my go-to dishes. Whenever I ask Chris what he fancies for tea, you can pretty much guarantee that he’ll pipe up ‘Crispy Chilli Beef!’. It’s actually my favourite meal from the Chinese takeaway too. We always order a portion, but it can be a bit hit-and-miss....
Made with seven simple ingredients and ready in about an hour, it’s an easy weeknight recipe that everyone will love. I can’t believe how delicious this chicken is! Baked in the oven (much like these very simple yet reliable baked drumsticks) and coated with crushed pork rinds, it’s amazingly close to the real Southern fried chicken I used to make in the past. Oven-baked keto fried chicken coated in pork rinds is so good, so crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside, that I don’t miss the frying anymore....
Simple enough for midweek, impressive enough for holiday feasting, roasted is without a doubt the BEST way to eat brussels sprouts! Roasted Brussels Sprouts Everyone needs one ridiculously good brussels sprouts recipe to prove to Sprouts Haters that they CAN be amazingly delicious. And this is one of mine! (The other is probably Brussels Sprouts in Creamy Parmesan Sauce – let your imagination dwell on that one for a minute …) It’s outrageously easy and mouthwateringly delicious....
It’s such an easy recipe, thanks to using canned pumpkin puree. So there’s no needs to puree the soup - just mix together the ingredients and heat them. Just like my easy tomato soup, this truly easy recipe was inspired by my strong desire, just before lunch a few weeks ago, to avoid chopping, sautéing, and pureeing. I wanted a hot, tasty soup, but I also wanted it to be EASY!...
This post was written in collaboration with The Saucy Fish Co. I realised this morning with horror that the kids are back at school next week! Where have the summer holidays gone? I imagined long sunny days, with the kids playing in our close and garden. Both of them constantly asking me for ice pops to cool off after bike rides, football and playing spies on secret missions (one of Lewis’ favourite games)....
Simple to make, sounds fancy, tastes fab. Home run! (Pssst – Excellent holiday side dish) Fondant Slow-Roasted Sweet Potatoes Stick the word “fondant” in front of “potato”, and suddenly your everyday spuds sound a whole lot fancier. But in reality, it’s just potatoes that have been slow-roasted with a little stock until they absorb the flavour. They become creamy and savoury on the inside, and golden caramelised on the outside....
