Brunch
Spud Sunday: Bloomin’ Spuds
Bloom in the Park rolls around again, this year with potato cookery demos from Raymond Moran, inspired by which I make some fish cakes with Burren Smokehouse hot smoked salmon
Spud Sunday: Traditional Spuds
The new edition of Irish Traditional Cooking by Darina Allen of course includes a chapter on potatoes, and this recipe for potato drops – a variation on potato pancakes – is just one of the many included.
Spud Sunday: Searching For Breakfast
While it’s neither a rösti nor a Spanish omelette, my latest potato pancake has elements of both, as well as a lot of Indian flavour
Asparagus Über Alles
Note that it necessarily needed it, but white asparagus gets a bit of a makeover in the shape of this gratin with coconut milk and lemongrass
Good Afternoon, Mr. Skehan
Donal Skehan’s new book may have been launched to the clink of afternoon tea, but it was Kitchen Hero’s toast with homemade white beans in tomato sauce that caught my eye
Bringing Home The Shiitake
Bacon and eggs get a 5 star makeover, with Asian flavours and a very different kind of bacon – shiitake bacon to be exact
Spud Sunday: The Ugly Dumpling
In which, for Project Food Blog, I demonstrate the making of boiled boxty with rather a lot of pictures.
Spud Sunday: Strawberry Elephants Forever
Gastroanthropologist’s slow roasted strawberries meet Miss Jane Bury’s potato pancakes – each one worthy of attention
