Posted in Alternatives, Fish, Gluten Free, Low-fat, Moroccan, Seafood, Slimmingworld, Snacks & Quick Suppers, Syn Value, Syns, Tapas/Spanish, UncategorizedLeave a comment

I can’t take any credit for this other than I’ve adjusted the recipe slightly to make it a bit lower in Slimmingworld Syns.  This is one that I saw the wonderful James Martin make on his Saturday morning show on ITV https://www.jamesmartinchef.co.uk/recipes/spanish-seafood-and-chorizo-stew/ The original recipe calls for butter beans or maybe chickpeas but I didn’t…… Continue reading Seriously Show Stopping Spanish Shellfish and Chorizo Stew

This started life as a vegetable Rogan Josh from my Bosh cooking book but as usual I decided to play around a bit, make it a bit more Slimmingworld friendly.  I have to say aubergines would probably be on my list of food hell on Saturday kitchen normally but I thought I would give them…… Continue reading Angelic Aubergine and Merry Mixed Vegetable Curry

FUNKY FISH AND SILLY SPINACH CURRY

Posted in Alternatives, Fish, Gluten Free, Indian & Curry, Seafood, Slimmingworld, Syns, Thai, UncategorizedLeave a comment

 This started life as Nigella’s Golden Egg Curry but soon evolved into fish and spinach as the sound of egg in a curry didn’t go down very well. I cooked it with all 3 and it was lovely you just need to try and keep the egg yolks runny and the fish lightly poached.  Roughly…… Continue reading FUNKY FISH AND SILLY SPINACH CURRY

What more can I say but YUM! Hard to believe this is Free food on the Slimming World diet.  It is loosely based on a recipe in one of this diet’s recipe books and is definitely worth a try.  I believe it is vegan friendly, gluten free and low fat.  You could add chicken breast/thighs…… Continue reading Squidgy Squash, Perky Pepper and Cracking Cauliflower Curry

Another great versatile recipe that can use shop bought Creole seasoning or even Cajun seasoning or to make it extra special, if you have the ingredients or time to get them, you can make your own in 5 minutes and will have plenty left over to use in a variety of recipes.  I’ve calculated this…… Continue reading Cracking Creole Chicken

Sassy Seafood Stew with Mighty Moroccan Spices

Posted in Alternatives, Fish, Gluten Free, Moroccan, UncategorizedLeave a comment

This started off as one of Jamie Oliver’s 15 minute meals recipes but after 1.5 hours trying to get something that didn’t taste like a can of tomato soup we came up with this which actually turned out pretty tasty.  Don’t get me wrong, I love Jamie but his recipe just didn’t do it for…… Continue reading Sassy Seafood Stew with Mighty Moroccan Spices

  I have to say this one is very much a joint effort with Stella as she had previously done something similar a few weeks ago. In fact it’s the first time I’ve ever tackled a dish like this as I always thought it would be too much like hard work but as long as…… Continue reading Sumptuously Show Stopping Stuffed Squid Asian Style

After eating this I reckon you could give Popeye a run through his money in a fight. It’s so packed with nutrients and the combination tastes great. Rhubarb seems to be in season now so grab it while you can INGREDIENTS 1 ready cooked smoked mackerel fillet. 2 large handfuls of fresh spinach. A large…… Continue reading MIGHTY MACKEREL AND RAVING RHUBARB, SPINACH, WATERCRESS AND HAZELNUT SALAD

Trust me on this one you will never look at a chicken nugget in the same way again. These chicken bites are bursting with flavour and crunch and the spicy Korean sauce packs a real punch that slaps you round the face and leaves a lovely tingle on your tongue. The idea was born out…… Continue reading FINGER LICKING KRAZY KICKING KOREAN CHICKEN WRAPS

SASSY SPRING ROLLS WITH PRAWNS AND CRISPY VEGETABLES

Many years ago, 1996 to be exact, I did a short Chinese Cookery Course and learnt how to cook these.  The recipe has developed over the years and largely depends on whatever ingredients I have in the fridge or basically how fat I’m feeling at the time. Ha ha. I know there are many versions…… Continue reading SASSY SPRING ROLLS WITH PRAWNS AND CRISPY VEGETABLES
