Rice Pudding with Banana & Miso Caramel Sauce! A pudding made from leftovers in less than 15 minutes! What is not to love about that! A great way to use leftover rice in a seriously affordable and versatile way.

One of the most uniquely delicious things I’ve ever cooked! A lasagna, cooked on a bbq/firepit, made up of tex mex salsa, some beans with BBQ lambs, ox and chicken hearts! Cooked within 45 minutes on stage at Mabon - Wales’ first fire festival!

A tomato soup recipe like no other. This was a creation from a community project using entirely surplus ingredients so maybe doesn’t follow all the usual rules! It’s comforting and unctuous with red lentils. It went down a storm with the young people we served it for.

A fantastic recipe for any leftover beef. It’s rich, warm, comforting, not too spicy and super adaptable. Plus the recipe for the paste is so good! Make that, batch it up! You don’t need to look any further for leftover beef inspiration!

A wonderfully simple orange upside down carrot cake! Forging the worlds of orange upside down cakes and carrot cakes together! This was made gluten free and lactose free and you would have been none the wiser for it! A cake you have to try!

A wonderful way to use up marrow! At that time of year where you struggle to keep motivation in eating a whole marrow, make this ragu, batch it up, store it in your freezer. I served it as a dip with some bread, butter and pickles but it also makes the most wonderful sauce for a main course dish.

This seasonal Stewed Fruit Upside Down Cake was made entirely from surplus ingredients. An amazing way to use up left over crumble filling and stewed fruits. A proper celebration of autumn and autumnal colours.

Dirty Martini’s are the way forward. This recipe is one of the very best! I like to make them ‘bone dry’ with no vermouth. I love to use fermented tomatoes, celery or cucumber to give them some proper salty va-va-voom!

Beautful pasture raised, organic roast beef, a late summer salad made up from locally grown over ripe tomatoes, fennel, runner beans and the most vibrant, rich buttermilk dressing. This is a recipe straight from my heart! Served at room temperature it’s got a beautiful comfort to it and doesn’t compromise on flavour one bit.

All the deliciousness of Gildas captured in charred cabbage form. The ultimate side dish - its tangy, salty, spicy, smokey, charred and perfect with a rich stew or nicely roasted pork loin.

This Spanish style pork stew is rustic, comforting and utterly delicious. It packs a real punch of flavour without overbearing. There’s a lovely light balance to it. I served it at Ludlow Food Festival as part of the Slow Food Feast to celebrate fantastic local produce and raise money for surplus charities.

A proper rustic dish with all the feels that its come straight out of a country kitchen! Potato, Caramelised Onion and Cheese Galette!

Latke is a Jewish type of hash brown, somewhere between a hash brown and a potato pancake or fritter! I use some caramelised onions to add some sweetness! These make the most amazing breakfast, lunch, dinner or snack! So versatile!

A brilliant stuffed bread, perfect for lazy mornings or just nibble on it throughout the day! Its packed with all the good stuff, olives, roasted peppers, pesto, parmesan, cured meats but you can make it your own and pack it with whatever you fancy!

The ultimate comfort food! Classic cooking, just delicious!

Aromatic and not too hot, creamy and rich with a bit of freshness, this potato and egg curry is a total winner and costs very little to make!

You’ve all had carrot cake, well make way for Swede Cake! Equally delicious and another amazing way to use up your root veggies!

Swede & Black Bean Burgers seasoned with Miso and packed with good stuff! There is no compromise on flavour with these. I stacked them high, Aussie Style!

Deliciously sweet roasted swede layered with fresh thyme, salt and cheddar cheese! Simply delicious!

Leftover chips, turned into a potato tortilla, turned into the ultimate chip butty! Absolutely magic!
