Ping! This is how this dish should make you feel. We combine eggs with all the good stuff – chilli, coriander, spring onion, and spices to make a really lovely omelette. This is a recipe for 1 so increase the quantity if you are making it for more people. Perfect for a brunch or lunch or even dinner – this is a versatile, super speed recipe to adapt throughout the year but particularly good in September or October if you grew your own chillies this year!…

Green Coconut Curry
We really enjoy recipes that use a lot of garden ingredients – so here’s one that celebrates the green veg available at this time of year, maintaining all that fresh vibrant colour in a delicious curry. Feel free to adjust the spicing to make it spicier or keep it fairly mild. You can also use all the veg suggested or keep it simple with just a couple of different ingredients! Serve with lime segments and steamed basmati rice for a lovely Summer meal!…

Chilli Oil
For a foodie, what could be nicer or easier than a bottle of special oil as a gift? This tastes great and looks really pretty in the bottle. Simply add sprigs of thyme and rosemary along with chillies of different sizes, a peeled clove of garlic and some peppercorns to the bottles before topping up with some extra virgin olive oil. Make sure to prick the chillies before they go in so they release their spice into the oil. …
Pumpkin Soufflé Pancakes
A tasty, lightly spiced pumpkin soufflé inside a savoury buckwheat galette – what’s not to love! We replace the traditional cheese in a soufflé here with sun dried tomatoes and chilli to give another dimension. These might seem fiddly, but they’re easy to construct and if you can’t be bothered to make the galettes you could always use a gluten free wrap instead! Serve for dinner with a rustic salad….
