candied bacon green salad

servings 4

This salad was inspired by two of the loveliest girls, Tamara and Zora, who regularly host an anti-restaurant supper club in Queens. Supper clubs are becoming quite popular in New York, and I think the idea behind them is quite cool. By opening up their homes... read recipe

chocolate biscuits with soft chocolate centers

Makes 30 biscuits

This is a great recipe to do with kids, as it's very simple and good fun putting the top circle over the chocolate and squashing the edges gently together to stop the chocolate escaping when it cooks. This is quite a dry mixture, but don't worry, they are... read recipe

cornish cowboy pasties

servings 8

Marcy Tatarka, an absolutely lovely cook I met in Wyoming, was full of all sorts of local food knowledge. She told me that people in this part of America are really into their pasties! Turns out that in the 1920s and 30s, miners from Cornwall came over to... read recipe

gorditas & salsa

servings 16

Gordita means 'little fat girl' in Spanish and is meant as a sort of cute, cuddly term of endearment. It's also the name for these sweet little puffy tortillas, which are often made around Easter and other special occasions. Look at the gorditas as a tasty... read recipe

green chilli

servings 4

This green chili is so delicious, simple to make and a total pleasure to eat. In England, we're sort of brainwashed into thinking of chili as just being chili con carne, but this is completely different and I absolutely love it. I think it's cleaner, braver... read recipe

hush puppies

servings 25–30

Hush puppies are little savory doughnuts and I think they're quite cool. I was told their name comes from the time of the Great Depression, when loads of people were going hungry. When they did get a bit of food, their hungry dogs would hang around whining,... read recipe

mexican street salad

servings 4-6

This simple little salad can be quite extraordinary, but you've got to season it with that Mexican spirit by being brave with the lime juice, salt and chilli, until it's singing in your mouth. It does a great job of waking up the other things it's served with... read recipe

my nan's lemon drizzle cake

Serves 8 to 10

This is a great old-fashioned tea cake - and perfectly presentable as a dessert with a big serving of ice cream. The trick is to make the lemon icing as fresh and zingy as possible, so try and buy nice thick-skinned organic leafy lemons instead of the waxed... read recipe

navajo flatbreads

servings 10 flatbreads

These flatbreads are a sort of cross between Indian naan breads and Mexican tortillas. They're used for breakfast, lunch or dinner and carry, complement or mop up whatever is being served with them. Apparently, in the old days, if a Navajo woman couldn't whip... read recipe

prawn-stuffed flatfish

servings 4

I think this is a really simple way to make a lovely flatfish like flounder, lemon sole, plaice, turbot or brill look, and taste, really exciting. If you want to, you can ask your fishmonger to run a knife down the back of the fish and make a pocket for you... read recipe
