Italian Beef Casserole with Red Wine

September 10, 2020 by Fiona Maclean 13 Comments

Italian Beef Casserole

Pairing Italy and Portugal with Food and Wine As summer draws to a close, I crave tender, slow-cooked casseroles with rich wine-infused gravy and meltingly tender meat.  Dishes like this Italian Beef Casserole.  While I love French style boeuf bourguignon and British (or is it Irish) beef in Guinness, ale or stout, I wanted to […]

Sous-Vide Fillet Steak

Sous Vide Fillet Steak

The Perfect Sous-Vide Fillet Steak and the Perfect Pairing with Caliterra Tributo 2017 Malbec What do you pair with Malbec?  I personally think there’s always a good reason when there’s an obvious and popular choice.  Pairing South American Malbec with steak is one of those choices you or I would almost certainly make in a […]

Mum’s Classic Beef Stroganoff

Classic Beef Stroganoff Recipe

Classic Beef Stroganoff – My Mother’s Dinner Party Dish: My mother was a woman of great character.  Cookery was not something that she ever wanted on her personal CV but when my father became the GP in a small seaside town, she was thrown into ‘Entertaining’.  It was expected that the doctor had a formal […]

Mum’s Cornish Pasties Recipe

May 19, 2018 by Fiona Maclean 9 Comments

Cornish Pasty 1

How to make Cornish Pasties – the Somerset Way Go straight to  the recipe When we were little, one of my mother’s staple dishes for weekday suppers was Cornish Pasties.  She made her Cornish Pasties with flaky pastry which took an inordinate amount of preparation, but which she thought hid her poor pastry skills.  My […]

Spiced Beef and Guinness Casserole with Orange 2

Spiced Beef and Guinness Casserole with Orange. It’s winter.  And I have a brand new slow cooker thanks to the lovely people at Crock-UK.  I’ve been dying to try it out and the other day I christened it using one of my family’s favourite recipes, a warming Spiced Beef and Guinness Casserole with orange.  I’ve […]

TheJuciest Burger Ever Recipe from Hellmanns

August 29, 2017 by Fiona Maclean 4 Comments

Easy Home Made Burger

The Story of a Home Made Beef Burger: Do you ever get a craving for a burger?  One that just won’t go away… That need to sink your teeth into something meaty, juicy and incredibly tasty.  The sort of craving that just doesn’t equate to a ready-made meat pattie or (heaven forbid) a fast food […]

Halloween Special – Witches Finger Chilli and Naughty Nachos.

October 30, 2016 by Fiona Maclean 5 Comments

halloween witches-finger-chilli-2

Halloween Themed Food – Witches Finger Chilli: I don’t normally bother trying to make Halloween themed dishes.  But, if you’ve ever been invited to one of those pot-luck events as a food-blogger you may well feel my pain.  For some reason people assume I can cook (that’s OK – I can) and that I can […]

Masterchef Challenge – Picahna Beef Cap with Chimichurri

August 6, 2016 by Fiona Maclean 4 Comments

Picanha and Chimichurri

As Good as it Gets – Salt Crust Picahna Beef with Chimichurri: While I’m horribly camera shy, I AM always tempted by a challenge.  Especially when it involves cooking with some of the finest meat available in the UK.  So, despite the fact that I spent most of July travelling, I still accepted a cookery […]

Cooking the Perfect Steak

March 30, 2016 by Fiona Maclean 6 Comments

Heggies-fillet-steak medallion-cut

Perfect Steak Just the Way I Like It: Much has been written about how to cook the perfect steak.  And, as with all cookery, much is about personal taste.  Anyone who has been to an Argentinian Steakhouse like Gaucho Piccadilly or one of London’s new breed of steak houses (Goodman, Hawksmoor and the like) will […]
