RECIPE

Fairtrade Chocolate Cake Unna Burch of the beautiful My Forest Cantina blog has just released her first cookbook, My Garden Kitchen: Easy weekdays and slow food weekends. Unna's also a passionate supporter of Fairtrade products, meaning this chocolate cake is feel-good in more ways than one... View Recipe Asparagus and Herb Tart with a Walnut and Buckwheat Crust A celebration of the seasonal star of the moment; asparagus, it needs very little dressing up other than some cheese and fresh herbs to make it sing. The tart crust is a wholesome and nutritious blend of walnuts, buckwheat and spelt flour. This may sound a little intimidating but the crust is very easy to make, with everything being thrown in the food processor.  View Recipe Fresh Mango and Raspberry Coconut Cake A delicious and easy one bowl cake that can be topped with a variety of seasonal fruit – figs, plums, nectarines, cherries, rhubarb, peaches and nectarines all work beautifully.  View Recipe Asian Glazed Steak and Rice Sugar and soy are delicious in marinades, but can make the marinated meat catch and burn quite quickly. To avoid this I like to make the glaze separately and add it to the cooked steak, then serve the remaining glaze on the side. View Recipe
