Yes my friends, from such simple ingredients this exquisitely divine plate of food.  No worries if you don’t have truffle, the risotto is just as delicious without. But hey!!!

I love that with one potato and some flour, this simple plate of exceptional food can be produced.  Add some seasonal mushrooms, freshly picked thyme and a handful of spinach and Bob really is your aunties live-in lover!

This intensely flavoured, rich, chunky, mouthwateringly wholesome soup, is a steaming bowl of happiness.  Eat with a big spoon and large chunks of warm bread dripping with butter.

Hummus : always reminds me of long hot holidays on the island of Cyprus, where the hummus was smooth as silk, full of flavour and served with plates piled high with fresh, warm, puffy pitta. Efharisto’

When my boys were small, making pizza was a wonderful way to spend time together and to get veggies into them.
