- My last supper would be... oysters to start, then my mum's macaroni cheese with salad
- My fool proof recipe is... chicken pilau : it has seen many variations but it works every time and only takes 20 mins!
- This recipe is online at ... http://www.bbcgoodfood.com/re...
- My favourite utensil is... my new spatula with hearts on it
- If I am not cooking I'm... working - self employed with husband - internet marketing company. or crocheting - since giving up smoking I have to have something to do with my hands!
- The best meal I've eaten was... probably something at my mum & dads - she is a fabulous cook

"This is a staple soup recipe in our house when usually i just grab whatever is in the fridge and make soup from it - easy to prepare, definitely better the next day and freezes well too."

"Really really quick and tasty - pop everything in a blender and whiz - shape around skewers and grill. Needs seasoning though, so a healthy sprinkle of salt and pepper really is required in the mix."

Figs with prosciutto
1 comment
"As ever I didnt follow the recipe to the letter! I wrapped the figs in parma ham, popped onto a baking tray, drizzled with honey and olive oil and a good sprinkle of salt and pepper and cooked in the oven 190c for about 10 mins and they were just divine, melt in the mouth divine!"

Cheesy spinach bake
8 comments
"Didnt have ricotta so used cream cheese, only had one pack of feta, added sliced mushrooms to the mix, blitzed onions, garlic and ginger prior to adding other ingredients and left to cool slightly before cutting and it was awesom! sometimes you dont need to folow the recipe to the letter, just get the general idea and then elaborate on it yourself. Someone else has mentioned seasoning, this dish definitely needs it, spinach can be really bland without a decent sprinkle of salt. I also added some grated parmesan on top of the pastry as a final touch. Just about to eat cold with soup for our lunch now, cut into mini squares - lovely and will definitely make again."
