We’re nearly there – just a handful of French Fridays with Dorie recipes to complete but we’re still not done with the fish (two more fish recipes to complete still after this!). Fortunately for me, this week’s selection (salmon tartare, p 180) was a relatively easy one and even more fortunately for me, I happened […]

French Fridays with Dorie: Riviera Fish Soup
Well, well, well. It’s another fishy French Fridays with Dorie recipe.

I just don’t like the flavour or texture of them, though Mr Neil […]

French Fridays with Dorie: Monkfish and Double Carrots
This week’s French Fridays with Dorie recipe (Monkfish with Double Carrots) was a revelation. I honestly whipped this up in under an hour (and that was being pretty disorganised and slow) in the tail end of a crazy few weeks of activity (writing, events, school, life…) and was really surprised how easily it came together.
