This is from Waitrose Food magazine where it was just called Chicken Noodle Soup. I suspect this is fusion food but the influences look very reminiscent of Thailand so this is my title. In any event, it looked interesting enough…

Recipes I have yet to try.
Pigs’ Cheeks
Pigs’ Cheeks (most seem to write it as Pig’s Cheeks, which seems to imply a single pig) have become very popular in recent years, particularly in Spain, so here’s a recipe to try that uses them. Long, slow cooking is…
Almond Tart
One from Rick Stein’s Long Weekends series – Lisbon, in this case, hence the Portugal tag – which was great if you could avoid the title music. Mr. Stein said he doesn’t do complex desserts and this certainly isn’t. IMHO,…
Prawns with Cardamom, Vanilla & Coconut
This sounded like an interesting starter, perhaps to begin an evening of spicey food. I got this from the Wine Society blog. Planning serves: 4 preparation time: 15 mins cooking time: 30 mins Ingredients 16 tiger prawns, defrosted if frozen…

Pots au Chocolat
Untried as yet, this one is from Waitrose Food Illustrated . Few peiople can resist a chocolate rush, though, so it should be good. Planning serves: 6 preparation time: 20 mins cooking time: 12 hrs Ingredients 200g plain chocolate (70%)…
Fennel Risotto
Untried as yet – from Waitrose Food Illustrated . It may be difficult – I’ve never seen baby fennel! Planning serves: 6 preparation time: 45 mins cooking time: 15 mins Ingredients 8 baby fennel bulbs, tops and fronds chopped and…

Untested as yet – from Waitrose Food Illustrated . Planning serves: 4 preparation time: 30 mins cooking time: 2¾ hrs Ingredients 3 tbs olive oil 1 carrot, finely chopped 1 onion, finely chopped 2 celery sticks, finely chopped 2 tbs…
