For Forks Sake: October 2012
http://for-forks-sake.blogspot.com/2012_10_01_archive.html
Eat, Live, Indulge and Enjoy. Sunday, 28 October 2012. If you can persuade your fellow diners to move away from crispy duck and try something new then they may thank you for recommending Yuk Sung. The chilli is optional as it gives the whole thing a kick you may or may not want. What’s key is the minced pork and the addition of mint for freshness and spring onion for crunch. Or Hoisin Sauce, dropped into the centre of each little lettuce parcel goes very well indeed. 2 cloves of Garlic finely chopped.

For Forks Sake: November 2012
http://for-forks-sake.blogspot.com/2012_11_01_archive.html
Eat, Live, Indulge and Enjoy. Saturday, 3 November 2012. Two types of beans, tapas style. I love making this, both dishes use up what I have in the freezer, fridge and store cupboard. There’s a very distinct nod towards a couple of tapas dishes I’ve had previously and the inclusion of the sherry vinegar certainly lends that Spanish feel to the dishes. Beans are quite obviously key elements but equally prominent is the inclusion of the bits of salami from the back of the fridge. Butter Beans and Chilli.

Cake, Cats and Cocktails: Toast Bar and Bistro, Leeds

Cake, Cats and Cocktails. The escapades of a girl and her cat living in Leeds. Blog take 2. Had a year off due to laziness, back now! View my complete profile. Monday, 29 November 2010. Toast Bar and Bistro, Leeds. I recently spent a cold Sunday afternoon wandering around the Reetsweet Craft Fair. The menu is fairly standard- a selection of sandwiches, breakfasts, a Sunday roast, burgers and various meat and fish dishes. They also offer a "build your own platter" deal where you choose 4, 6 or 8 items...

For Forks Sake: Smokey Pulled Pork
http://for-forks-sake.blogspot.com/2015/08/smokey-pulled-pork.html
Eat, Live, Indulge and Enjoy. Thursday, 6 August 2015. Pulled pork is pretty much everywhere these days, from On-trend US inspired eateries, restaurants, pubs even fast food joints are doing it, so safe to say it must be pretty tasty right. Too right it is and I love the stuff, I've made it a few times now and over time I have developed this recipe. This recipe in particular gives you soft, meltingly tender meat, that is, Smokey hot from the chipotle and sweet yet sharp, almost the perfect combination.

For Forks Sake: Harissa Humus
http://for-forks-sake.blogspot.com/2015/08/harissa-humus.html
Eat, Live, Indulge and Enjoy. Sunday, 9 August 2015. There’s not much to say about humus really, a staple of many many parts of the world as wide a mix as there are recipes for the stuff. So why am I posting a recipe then? 1 Can of Chickpeas. 1 clove of garlic pressed. 2 tablespoons of harissa paste. 3 tablespoon of extra virgin olive oil. A Squeeze of Lemon juice. Pinch of sea salt. Put all of the ingredients except the paprika into a food processor and pulse until blended. Next taste, add more seas...

For Forks Sake: August 2014
http://for-forks-sake.blogspot.com/2014_08_01_archive.html
Eat, Live, Indulge and Enjoy. Sunday, 3 August 2014. Warm Beef and Cannellini Bean Salad. Always helpful and will try and order for you what they don't normally stock. As there’s little fat on the beef and it’s used sparingly, this is pretty healthy considering the red meat content. One Beef Fillet tail – Single Rib eye steak will do (basically just use a steak the size you would normally use for one person). Handful of plain black pitted olives. 2 Medium size tomatoes. 1 400g tin of Cannellini beans.

For Forks Sake: Mutton Shepherds Pie
http://for-forks-sake.blogspot.com/2014/03/mutton-shepherds-pie.html
Eat, Live, Indulge and Enjoy. Tuesday, 11 March 2014. Shepherds Pie, really Andrew! Ok so most people can make a shepherds and have their own take on how it should go. I include myself in that as I’ve made it on many occasions but never with mutton. I’ve blogged previously on the merits of mutton and I had an idea to make mutton shepherds pie. Is it worth hunting for the meat and then the inevitable slow cook when you could easily knock up the standard offering? In this case, most definitely it is. IR...
