I pick up a fresh loaf from a local bakery but you can also pick up a packet from the supermarket. Nothing beats home made bread but I think we have to be realistic sometimes. Making your own bread can be time consuming. This quick and easy way of making your own garlic bread will take a fraction of the time and st...Thu, 05 May 2016 14:00:20 +0000Strawberry Banana Breadhttps://niammy.com/tim/recipe/strawberry-banana-bread-245https://niammy.com/tim/recipe/strawberry-banana-bread-245Banana bread is one of my favourite cakes. It is easy to make, tastes delicious and always goes down a treat. This recipe is also delicious compared to the dry looking slices you see when waiting for your cafe in the morning.Thu, 05 May 2016 13:58:32 +0000Strawberry Cakehttps://niammy.com/tim/recipe/strawberry-cake-244https://niammy.com/tim/recipe/strawberry-cake-244I made a strawberry cake the night before and took a few slices along for dessert along with a strawberry sauce for drizzle. This is a really easy cake to prepare the night before and is a perfect summer treat – if the good weather returns!Thu, 05 May 2016 13:56:44 +0000Pork Chops with Apples and Walnutshttps://niammy.com/tim/recipe/pork-chops-with-apples-and-walnuts-185https://niammy.com/tim/recipe/pork-chops-with-apples-and-walnuts-185I love a pork chop – mainly because it is one of the only cuts of meat that you can get plenty of in and good quality in Germany! They are cheap, quick to cook and go well with plenty of vegetables. I griddle the pork chops but you can easily fry then. I also top them with some roasted apples and walnuts to give them that sweet kick. Add a little dollop of chutney on the side and you have yours...Thu, 28 Apr 2016 14:22:43 +0000Sausages with a White Bean Chillihttps://niammy.com/tim/recipe/sausages-with-a-white-bean-chilli-184https://niammy.com/tim/recipe/sausages-with-a-white-bean-chilli-184I like to call this recipe my posh sausages and beans dish. The white beans are cooked in a spicy red pepper sauce that give a different twist to the standard baked beans most of us love and enjoy! The cumin, paprika and coriander give this recipe a smoky, Mexican flavour.Thu, 28 Apr 2016 14:20:43 +0000Goats Cheese Wrapped in Parma Hamhttps://niammy.com/tim/recipe/goats-cheese-wrapped-in-parma-ham-183https://niammy.com/tim/recipe/goats-cheese-wrapped-in-parma-ham-183I make the goats cheese wrapped in Parma ham with some roasted walnuts and apples and topped with a honey-mustard dressing. They are gently pan fried so that the goat cheese melts and the ham is crispy.Thu, 28 Apr 2016 14:18:19 +0000Swedish Meatballshttps://niammy.com/tim/recipe/swedish-meatballs-182https://niammy.com/tim/recipe/swedish-meatballs-182These meatballs are cooked in a creamy broth with nutmeg and parsley. Serve with some potatoes or veg on the side and they are a real comfort treat!

It is so simple to make and a real treat topped with some smoked salmon and avocado.Thu, 28 Apr 2016 14:02:15 +0000Mexican Scrambled Eggshttps://niammy.com/tim/recipe/mexican-scrambled-eggs-180https://niammy.com/tim/recipe/mexican-scrambled-eggs-180This quick breakfast dish is made a la Mexicana with red tomatoes and green jalapeños, ingredients that mirror the colors of the Mexican flag.Thu, 28 Apr 2016 13:55:55 +0000Cumin and Hazelnut Roasted Cauliflowerhttps://niammy.com/tim/recipe/cumin-and-hazelnut-roasted-cauliflower-158https://niammy.com/tim/recipe/cumin-and-hazelnut-roasted-cauliflower-158This cumin and hazelnut roasted cauliflower dish is a great one for a warm summer evening and an alternative to your more ‘traditional’ Sunday roast. There is no need to have 4 or 5 pans on the go and the oven on for hours on end. You can serve this alongside a roast chicken. Alternatively I serve this with some grilled chicken breast or salmon.Wed, 27 Apr 2016 15:30:42 +0000Mexican Style Quichehttps://niammy.com/tim/recipe/mexican-style-quiche-157https://niammy.com/tim/recipe/mexican-style-quiche-157I am big fan of the classic quiche lorraine. Another favourite of mine is salmon and watercress. And of course during asparagus season you just can’t beat an asparagus and goats cheese quiche! I love this mexican style version with a little heat from the cayenne pepper and jalapenos. It has a real fresh taste to it. You can eat it warm or cold.

I find that the mushrooms still keep a bit of their crunch and do not end up really soggy – making them perfect to add to a risotto. This recipe is also a great one. The mushrooms work so well with goats cheese and it is really quick and easy to make.Wed, 27 Apr 2016 15:26:50 +0000Scallops and Prawns with Crispy Chorizohttps://niammy.com/tim/recipe/scallops-and-prawns-with-crispy-chorizo-155https://niammy.com/tim/recipe/scallops-and-prawns-with-crispy-chorizo-155The crispy chorizo adds a bit of crunch and I cook the scallops and prawns in a parsley butter. Serve with some lambs lettuce so that you don’t take the flavour away from the scallops and chorizo!Wed, 27 Apr 2016 15:24:32 +0000Courgetti with Avocado and Cashew Pestohttps://niammy.com/tim/recipe/courgetti-with-avocado-and-cashew-pesto-154https://niammy.com/tim/recipe/courgetti-with-avocado-and-cashew-pesto-154One of my favourites is this recipe and it is perfect as a side dish or as a main served with some grilled salmon, chicken or prawns. The avocado makes the pesto so creamy and the cashews add a little bit of a crunchy texture to it.Wed, 27 Apr 2016 15:22:07 +0000Banana Cereal Barshttps://niammy.com/tim/recipe/banana-cereal-bars-153https://niammy.com/tim/recipe/banana-cereal-bars-153Wed, 27 Apr 2016 15:20:25 +0000
