Chilli Panko Squid Recipe

July 30, 2012Chilli Snacks & Bites, Chilli Starters Standard

I bought some Panko Breadcrumbs to make Paul Ainsworth’s arancini a couple of weeks ago and have been trying them out on all sorts of tasty snacks so when I spotted some fresh squid in the shop i decided to make that old favourite calamari. The recipe serves two and requires a deep fryer or […]

Paul Ainsworth’s Sicilian arancini with arrabiata sauce

July 18, 2012Chilli Recipes, Chilli Snacks & Bites, Chilli Starters Standard

Arancini are little deep fried balls of crispy yet gooey risotto and something I first experienced in Rojanos in Padstow whilst on honeymoon..I stole one off the wife’s plate as I’d ordered the squid. Ever since then I’ve been craving both the squid and the arancini until I came across the recipe on Great British […]

Harissa Potatoes Recipe

June 14, 2012Chilli Snacks & Bites Standard

I’m a massive fan of Harissa it’s got to be one of the tastiest and most flexible products going, I’ve used it in loads of recipes and blogged about it a couple of times before. This has to be one of the simplest ways to use it though. We had them with some of Simon […]

Chilli Glazed Spam

May 30, 2012Chilli Snacks & Bites Standard

A couple of weeks ago the lovely people at Spam sent me a huge parcel of spam and spam related goodies, I’d not had spam since I was a kid and even then I think I only ever had it as fritters at school, so I decided to try and see how many ways I could spice […]

Huevos Rancheros Recipe

May 4, 2012Chilli Recipes, Chilli Snacks & Bites Standard

I’m a huge fan of Huevos Rancheros for breakfast, it’s the the perfect hangover cure (especially when topped with some crispy smoked bacon) it’s just a shame that not many places serve it on the breakfast, so on our recent trip to Cornwall I was delighted to see that Stein’s Cafe in Padstow had it […]

I got the Hairy Bikers Perfect Pie Book way back when it came out and I’ve cooked a fair bit out of it so far and even combined a couple of the recipes to make a different version but one of the ones I’d really been looking forward to trying  was the Chilli Beef Pies, mainly […]

Firstly sorry that it’s been so long since I posted on here, things have been very hectic of late so I’ve not had time to write as many blog posts as I’d have liked. Anyway here’s a post that’s remained unfinished for far too long, It was the first time I’ve tried to make pork […]

Picante Tortilla Recipe

June 24, 2011Chilli Snacks & Bites Standard

I’ve been meaning to have a crack at a Spanish omelette or Tortilla for ages and finally got round to it tonight. All the quantities are kind of estimates as I just used what I had to hand, It was great warm but even better cold. If you are of the vegetarian persuasion you can leave […]

Cheeky Chilli Chicken Wings

June 18, 2011Chilli Snacks & Bites Standard

After the amazing suicide wings at Hickory’s in Chester I thought I’d have a go at making some my self, I very nearly just coated them in the Smart Arse Sauce that The One Stop Hot Shop sent me, but decided that would be the easy and slightly lethal option. The idea is you can […]
