Squash Gratin with Herby Breadcrumbs

Squash gratin with herby breadcrumbs A warming, creamy autumnal dish that can be made with butternut or any other variety of squash. Sage + squash = autumn. Is there a better combo this time of year? Peeling the squash is optional but for butternut I prefer this dish...

Plum & Amaretti Semifreddo

Semifreddo means half cold in Italian and this simple dessert is a cross between a frozen mousse and an ice-cream. In this version I swirl through deep maroon plum puree and scatter in crumbled amaretti biscuits. I first made a version of this plum amaretti...

My kitchen is finally finished do you want a peek? $My kitchen is finally finished do you want a peek? 💫 This is where I’ll be writing my recipes and filming my reels for the foreseeable. It’s been quite the journey, coordinating different tradespeople, dealing with the aftermath of things being done in the wrong order (gas pipe I’m looking at you). And in all honesty stressing about whether it was the right decision to spend the money in such an unpredictable financial climate (even though I purchased the flat well under asking price with the fact the kitchen needed replacing as a negotiating tool). Never not overthinking me. It’s done now, decision made. Let’s move on. If helpful, here’s where I got everything from; 🌟Kitchen units, worktops (storm grey laminate) and fridge Witney dove grey from @howdensjoinery 🌟Appliances are a mixture of Bosch and Hotpoint sourced from AO.com (I have a dishwasher for the first time in my life whoop) 🌟Tiles ocean emerald hexagon from @porcelainsuperstore 🌟 Shelf from my old flat, trimmed by my builder, sanded down and waxed by me (my proudest achievement). Originally from eBay. 🌟Bar stools an absolute bargain at £20 each from @bandq_uk {edit I’ve now taken these back and got different stools as they were too high} 🌟Paint ‘pampas’ by @coatpaints (I paid for a colour consultation which really helped the overwhelm with choosing the colour). All paid for by me 👍🏻and I’ll be paying it off for quite a long time as I added borrowing to my mortgage in order to finance it 💷. Thanks for all the useful DMs you’ve offered throughout the process, much appreciated. Bathroom next? (No!!!
