Since it's my birthday next week, I decided to spoil my clients and myself with a menu of some of my "favourite things". ๐Ÿฅณ๐Ÿ˜Ž๐Ÿฅฐ

My CORONATION CHICKEN CURRY is a big favourite โค๏ธ. Tender pieces of poached chicken breast in a lightly curried, slightly tangy and creamy sauce. Topped off with toasted almonds, dried apricots and sultanas, and spring onions. The secret really is in the sauce ๐Ÿ˜ - not just mayo + curry powder, but a proper curry made from scratch.
โ„น๏ธ ๐ŸŒพGF, ๐Ÿฅ”RC, ๐ŸฅšEF, ๐Ÿ’›๐ŸŒŸRF. ๐Ÿ„, ๐Ÿฌ๐Ÿ, ๐Ÿฅœ.
๐Ÿ’ก Traditionally served cold with bread and salad, but it's also delicious when served warm with rice and a side salad. Great for a packed lunch.
โ„๏ธ Can be frozen, but the spring onions will lose their crunch.
โšกโš ๏ธ If you'd like to eat it warm, please heat gently (stirring often) so that the sauce doesn't curdle. Microwave or stove-top.
๐Ÿ’ฐ R69 pp.

Somehow it's been ages since this delicious ROSEMARY BEEF & VEGETABLE PIE appeared on the menu. Beef chuck and shin braised with the classic vegetables (onions, carrots, celery), seasoned liberally with fresh rosemary, black pepper, and a splash of red wine. Shredded and mixed with a flavourful gravy, and topped with puff pastry.
โ„น๏ธ ๐ŸฅšEF, ๐ŸฌSF, ๐Ÿฅ”๐ŸŒŸCC, ๐Ÿ’›RF. ๐Ÿท, ๐Ÿ„, ๐ŸŒพ.
๐Ÿ’ก Serve with a green vegetable (like garden peas or steamed broccoli), and if you're a carb lover like me, a small portion of mash.
โ„๏ธ Supplied unbaked, and frozen.
โšก Oven-bake according to instructions on container lid.
๐Ÿ’ฐ R89 pp.

There have been many types of PORK MEATBALLS on the menu, and these are always a big hit. Chinese-style, with soy sauce and a tiny hint of chilli. But it's the home-made SWEET & SOUR SAUCE makes all the difference - the first time I made this many moons ago I was amazed at how much nicer it is than the orange goo ๐Ÿ™ˆ you usually get with take-aways. The sauce is extra delicious with the addition of chopped onions, peppers and pineapple.
โ„น๏ธ ๐Ÿฌ๐ŸŒŸRS, ๐Ÿ’›๐ŸŒŸRF, ๐ŸฅšEF. ๐ŸŒพ(gluten in soy sauce).
๐Ÿ’ก Serve with the Egg Fried Rice.
โ„น๏ธ Sauce is packaged separately.

With this intermittent colder rainy weather, I've been craving some creamy comfort food. Subsequently, here's the second ever ๐Ÿ‘‘ menu appearance of my MUSHROOM RISOTTO WITH BABY SPINACH. Made with onions, garlic, white wine, butter, thyme, rosemary, a dash of cream and a generous sprinkling of pecorino cheese. Involves a lot of frying, stirring and patience, but the end result really is like a bit of heaven. ๐Ÿ‘‘
โ— LIMITED AVAILABILITY
โ„น๏ธ Risotto doesn't freeze well (the texture changes), so I'll be making this fresh on delivery day.
โ„น๏ธ ๐Ÿ’šV, ๐ŸŒพGF, ๐ŸฅšEF, ๐ŸฌSF. ๐Ÿ„, ๐Ÿท.

SPINACH & FETA STUFFED CHICKEN BREAST is a bit labour-intensive to prepare, but it is sรณ good (and โค๏ธ popular). The spinach is blanched and chopped before being mixed with lots of ricotta, feta and fresh herbs with a grating of nutmeg. The chicken breasts get a good whack with the tenderising hammer (one of the most satisfying jobs in the kitchen) before being carefully cut and filled. Lightly brushed with olive oil and seasoned before being baked in the oven. I make a light gravy for this with chicken stock and aromatics and a hint of lemon.

This INDONESIAN CHICKEN NOODLE & PEANUT SOUP has a light, fragrant curry base made slightly creamy by the addition of coconut milk.

Lastly, something sweet. Now this one is usually called a tart (appeltert) in Afrikaans, but it's actually more of a pudding ๐Ÿค”. Even if I call this APPLE PUDDING with Cream Sauce ๐Ÿค“, I think you'll know what I'm referring to. Tart apples baked in a soft sponge base and then drenched with a creamy syrup-sauce business when it comes out of the oven. Old-fashioned boerekos dessert ๐Ÿฅฐ.

OTTOLENGHI'S ROAST CHICKEN. It certainly sounds very exotic ๐Ÿ‘‘ - rubbed with za'atar (a middle-Eastern spice mixture of dried herbs and sesame seeds), extra sumac (a dried, ground, dark pink berry with a citrussy tang), and topped with extra lemon slices, red onions, garlic and sprinkling of chopped nuts. A wonderful combination of flavours - bright, earthy, herby, and nutty. After marinating overnight, the chicken portions are roasted in the oven.

This classic BEEF GOULASH is a hearty dish perfect for one of these chilly evenings. The cut of meat really makes all the difference (those "Goulash cubes" in the supermarket should really be avoided ๐Ÿ™ˆ) and also getting your hands on the right type of sweet paprika. The addition of onions, carrots and some tomato rounds off the flavours perfectly.

Of all the burger patties I've made, the GREEK LAMB BURGER PATTIES are by far the โค๏ธ absolute favourite. 100% lamb mince (special order), seasoned with lots of fresh herbs, garlic and lemon zest. No funny stuff. ๐Ÿ˜‰

Haven't made this BUTTERNUT & FETA QUICHE in a while, even though it's one of my favourites - the combination of the slightly sweet butternut and salty feta with rosemary is simply delicious. It happens to be ๐Ÿ’š vegetarian, but contains enough eggs and cheese for a good helping of protein.

The story behind GARDNER'S BEEF BOBOTIE is that my mom used to make this for Christmas Eve every year (such an easy dinner to have made ahead of time).

One of my food heroes is the late Italian chef Antonio Carluccio; and it was at his Covent Garden restaurant that Jamie Oliver got his first cheffing job. Carluccio's _Supreme di Pollo al Limone_ / LEMON BUTTER CHICKEN is an excellent example of how Italian cuisine uses simplicity and quality to perfection โค๏ธ. Chicken breasts lightly dusted with seasoned cornflour and then gently pan-fried with a k**b of butter. Fresh lemon juice, lemon zest and capers deglaze the pan and make the most sublime sauce for the chicken.

Haven't made this SPINACH & FETA QUICHE in a while, even though it's one of my favourites - seasoned with fresh herbs, black pepper and nutmeg - simply delicious. It happens to be ๐Ÿ’š vegetarian, but contains enough eggs and cheese for a good helping of protein.

SPINACH & FETA STUFFED CHICKEN BREAST is a bit labour-intensive to prepare, but it is sรณ good (and โค๏ธ popular). The spinach is blanched and chopped before being mixed with lots of ricotta, feta and fresh herbs with a grating of nutmeg. The chicken breasts get a good whack with the tenderising hammer (one of the most satisfying jobs in the kitchen) before being carefully cut and filled. Lightly brushed with olive oil and seasoned before being baked in the oven. I make a light gravy for this with chicken stock and aromatics and a hint of lemon.

This KAROO-STYLE LAMB CURRY is a good antidote for the chillier rainy evenings ๐Ÿฅฐ. Moderately spicy and deeply fragrant - lamb neck seasoned with garlic, ginger, cumin, coriander, cinnamon, cloves, cardamom, masala, and turmeric, with added sautรฉed onions, fresh tomatoes, dried apricots and a dollop of peach chutney.

This time I'll be making the ๐Ÿ”ฅ GREEK GRILLED CHICKEN ๐Ÿ‡ฌ๐Ÿ‡ท with tenderised chicken breasts that have marinated overnight with lots of fresh Mediterranean herbs, lemon and garlic.
โ„น๏ธ ๐ŸŒพGF, ๐Ÿฅ”LC, ๐ŸฅšEF, ๐Ÿ„DF, ๐ŸฌSF, ๐Ÿ’›๐ŸŒŸLF.
๐Ÿ’ก Very versatile! Serve with rice and veg. Or serve sliced over a mixed salad with a dollop of tzatziki, or stuffed in a pita with some greens for a light lunch. Or slice and toss with some green pesto and serve on pasta. Or use for a chicken burger or sandwiches. The possibilities are endless!

There's something very satisfying about a meaty stew in winter. This BEEF & BEER STEW is made with beef shin, ale, sweet onions and carrots. Deeply flavourful.
โ„น๏ธ ๐Ÿ’›RF, ๐ŸฅšEF, ๐ŸฌSF. ๐ŸŒพ, ๐Ÿท๐Ÿบ. ๐Ÿ‘‘ Rare appearance.

I've been craving good old-fashioned PORK BANGERS & ONION GRAVY with mash and peas. All those years living in England had to leave _some_ sort of mark on me ๐Ÿ˜†. Fresh pork sausages from the butchery, slowly pan-fried until they're browned beautifully but still juicy. Then some _properly_ caramelised onions (1 pan takes at least an hour ๐Ÿ‘€), good quality beef stock and Worcestershire sauce to make a delicious onion gravy. Comfort food at its best!
โ„น๏ธ ๐ŸฅšEF, ๐ŸฌSF. ๐ŸŒพ, ๐Ÿ„ (butter for gravy).
๐Ÿ’ก Serve with mash and peas. But would also work with slappap and roast veg, or rice and 2 veg.
โ„๏ธ Freezes well.
โšก Microwave, or stove-top over medium-low heat.
๐Ÿ’ฐ R59 pp.
