Aha! You thought I'd gone away for the summer but I have one last trick up my sleeve before taking my self imposed August blog break.  I realised I still hadn't entered English Mum's Big Bake Off and that this nutty apple loaf was just the ticket. This is the cake that I made for the foodbloggers' ...

Well, clearly that isn't a bun (unless you are exceptionally hungry!) but I did want to try Dan Lepard's latest bread recipe published recently in the Guardian newspaper (and discussed here on his forums) and a loaf suits my purposes better. It seems to be ages since I've tried a new bread recipe ...

What better way to use up those lovely small courgette, than simply enjoy the flavours of the courgette enhanced with bacon & parmesan in a Courgette Carbonara. This is a lovely light summer dish, creamy yet not too much sauce. The recipe I used was one of Jamie Olivers from Jamie at Home ...

Lime Possets with Raspberries - Cooking at Marystow

27 July 2010 in Cake Making Recipes

I love limes, they are so versatile and I find them so handy to have in the fruit bowl. I had every intention of making a Key-lime pie this week, but a huge pie for just the two of us means one thing - calories! So I thought I would try something smaller. I have never tried a lime posset until ...
