Morning! ☺️I hope you’re all having a lovely #bankholidayweekend. Thanks to Hayley for sending me this pic of her delicious creation after feeling #inspired to make my #melon & #goatscheesesalad for dinner. Yum!😋 Have a brilliant day everyone. #sundayfunday #salad #somerset

One of my favourite things is #baking (& eating!) fresh, #homemadebread at the #weekend. It fills the house with the most gorgeous, comforting smell.😋🍞 This is my plaited white #loaf, rosemary #focaccia & fig & caraway seed #bread. Enjoy your Saturday! #weekendmood

Oh I do love a #grazingtable.😍From tasty cheeses, fresh loaves & juicy grapes, to sliced meats, spicy nuts & oodles of veg, you’re always spoilt for choice. Have a fab Friday! #fridayfeeling #chef #privatechef #somerset #somersetchef #dorsetchef #somersetcool #loveforsomerset

I love making a classic & adding a different spin on it. 🥘 Here’s a throwback to my #recipe for #squashetti with watercress, bacon & prawns - a great alternative to #pasta if you’re #glutenfree: https://t.co/e91WvcE1v8 Have a brilliant Thursday! #throwbackthursday #chef

How can you tell you’re making a perfect #pavlova? When your #meringue is super glossy & pillowy enough to rest your head on! 🛌 😜This one is looking nicely #whipped & ready to go in the oven. Enjoy your Wednesday! #wednesdaywisdom #dessert #dessertlover #chef #somerset

Today’s #cheesecourse is a black & white beauty. 😍 This is my creamy #burrata with black #grapes marinated in fig balsamic, thyme & olive oil. Have a great Tuesday! #tuesdaythoughts #chef #privatechef #somersetchef #dorsetchef #somerset #somersetcool #loveforsomerset

Morning. ☺️After my melon & goats cheese #salad went down so well last week, I thought I’d share my healthy #edamame & #miso #ricebowl. I love #Japanese flavours & this salad is definitely one way to start the week off well. 🥗Have a fab Monday! #mondaymotivation

I’m loving my new #outdoorkitchen at the moment… & who knew you could finish off #picanha in the #pizzaoven ? 😛This is served with a punchy salsa verde & takes a #Sundayroast to a whole new level. Have a lovely day. #sundayfunday #somersetchef #dorsetchef #somerset

When the #weekend arrives & a glass of bubbly just doesn’t hit the spot. 😉These are my rosemary #pannacotta with a raspberry & rose coulis & lightly poached peaches. A glass of pure deliciousness! Enjoy your #Saturday. #weekendmood #dessert

Morning! If you’re in the mood for a Friday feast, this #HongSauRou (red #porkbelly) would certainly do the trick. 😋It’s braised slowly in spices until the pork is super tender & totally yum! 😃 #fridayfeeling #fridayfeast #chef #somersetchef

Morning! This Friday eve, I'll be answering all your food-related questions on Jenna @SomersetCool's #BigNightIn on #BBCRadioSomerset!🙌 So tweet me any #foodie Qs you have & I'll answer as many as I can. Tune in tomorrow at around 8.40pm to listen.😀 #somerset #chef

This gorgeous weather & opening my new outdoor kitchen, has given me the perfect chance to try out some different #summerdishes. ☀️ These are crab & #prawnrolls in mini #olivebreads - a great #appetiser to enjoy #alfresco. Have a wonderful day! #wednesdaywisdom #chef #somerset

“Pass the #salad please” - is what you’d be saying when this is served! 😛 🥗 This beaut of a dish is my melon, tomato & #goatscheesesalad with mint, red onion & a balsamic vinaigrette with red pepper flakes. Have a fab Tuesday! #tuesdaythoughts #salad #privatechef #somerset

The very best start to the week… a beautifully laid #breakfast table.🥰 It’s certainly been a hot one this weekend & while I love a bit of summer heat, this morning’s (slightly) cooler temperature feels very refreshing! Have a brilliant Monday. #mondaymotivation #coolvibes

It’s definitely a #weekend for #icecreams & growing up by the seaside, I enjoyed many a Mr Whippy! 🍦😛 This is a super simple no-churn strawberry & chocolate smoothie #icecream #lolly I’ve been working on. It’s refreshing & amazingly tasty. Have a lovely Sunday! #sundayfunday
