@ChefTomKerridge Shawarma Chicken on Yoghurt flatbreads #outdoorcooking Didn't bbq, grilled chicken under high heat. Flatbreads cooked in cast iron pan. Marinade on Chicken: could taste all the spices,sauce easy to prepare, red cabbage so tender, #lush will definitely do again.

@PaulHollywood Savoury Choux buns with Creamy Mushrooms.Bit disappointed with the choux. Followed the recipe exactly but they were very doughy.Split them as recommended,cooled on a rack. Any advice very welcome.Filling a tad too creamy but nice.Served with salad. Could be great

@PaulHollywood flatbreads, easy to prepare, great texture. Used as a base for @DeliaOnline remains of our easter sunday's treat of lamb cooked in red wine. Delicious. Great combination. Thanks both

@coopuk loved making this Easter no-bake cheesecake. Fab recipe.

@PaulHollywood Easter isn't Easter without Paul's Hot Cross Buns. My go to recipe. So much better than any shop bought ones. Fab flavour. Look forward to next year!!

@AngelaHartnett Chicken with chorizo, sage, with spiced aubergine. Easy to follow recipe, very tasty mix of flavours, lovely dinner. Loved the spiced aubergine accompaniment.

[A CHEF A WEEK 2022 @Chef2022]

@AngelaHartnett @GBMofficial Cote de boeuf,wild mushroom, gnocchi gratin.Lots of prep,needs time,but worth it.Gnocchi gratin a relevation.Could taste all ingredients.Angela is a great honest chef without any airs & graces. Loved this week & will cook her recipes again & again.

@AngelaHartnett Chicken stir fried with pak choi. Longer to prep (30 mins) than to cook, less than 10 mins. Fab flavours, great textures from the veg, made a change with the pak choi rather than noodles. This will be a go-to stir fry from now on.

@AngelaHartnett Creamy Mushroom Vol_au-Vents.Very retro but oh so tasty.Great filling.We made 3 large ones, Angela says would make a light lunch; we had them for dinner & didn't need any accompaniments. Very easy to do. Brilliant

@AngelaHartnett week Summer pot-roasted chicken with herb https://t.co/jckGvW2J1G for 2 so used 3 chicken thighs.Easy one-pot dish. Served with fusilli rather than potatoes.Stirred the pasta with the herb sauce.Don't be frightened of the anchovies or olives.Great flavour. Thanks

@DeliaOnline @DeliaSmithNCFC Lambs liver with melted onions & marsala,sliced potatoes baked with tomato & Basil.Very enjoyable, plenty of prep required but well worth it & didn't have to stand over it until last couple of minutes cooking the liver. Fab,would recommend & do again

[A CHEF A WEEK 2022 @Chef2022]

@DeliaOnline @DeliaSmithNCFC Pork braised in cider vinegar sauce served with potato & apple rosti, spiced sauted red cabbage with cranberries.Ab fab. Best rosti we've done. Pre-boilng potato great tip. Cabbage fantastic.Pork tender. Sauce & all worked so well.Full of flavour 😁

[A CHEF A WEEK 2022 @Chef2022]

@DeliaSmithNCFC @DeliaOnline Chicken with sherry vinegar & tarragon sauce. Easy to prepare & cook.Great flavours.Subtle home grown french tarragon flavour perfect.Served as recommended with new Lincolnshire potatoes and Petit pois. Can't fault it. Good honest cooking

[A CHEF A WEEK 2022 @Chef2022]

@GordonRamsay Duck Breast with Spring Greens & Gooseberry Sauce. Simple to prepare, great flavours. Spring Greens cooked this way is definitely the way forward. Sauce delicious.

[A CHEF A WEEK 2022 @Chef2022]

@GordonRamsay Roast Rump of Lamb with Herb Couscous. Lucky we have a great butcher as thin shop bought meat wouldn't have worked. Great flavoured couscous, a nice change from veg, but felt needed the spiced aubergine puree that was recommended in the recipe. Easy & quick. Great.

[A CHEF A WEEK 2022 @Chef2022]

@GordonRamsay Honey Mustard Pork Chops & New Potato Salad. Pork marinade easy to do, kept basting while cooking on the griddle.Potato Salad was the best with immense flavours of mint, honey,mustard & oil dressing.Won't use mayo in a potato salad again.Definitely a go-to recipe.

[A CHEF A WEEK 2022 @Chef2022]

@GordonRamsay Chicken with Petit Pois a la francaise.Had no Petit pois so used frozen garden peas & replaced pearl onions with chopped leek.Had roast chicken on Sunday for 2 of us so used the uncooked half for this dish.Smelled fab while cooking and tasted great,sauce delicious

[A CHEF A WEEK 2022 @Chef2022]

@BrianTurnerChef Cornish Caudle Chicken Pie.Followed recipe but had left over uncooked veg for his pasty added this with onions. Cream & egg mixture poured into the pastry made it creamy,maybe next time add cheese to it ? Did leave pastry to puff up longer than recipe suggests.
