Basil & Tomato Salad

I promise this is one of the nicest ways to enjoy quality tomatoes and basil. Like I say, don’t make this if you can’t get hold of home-grown or vine-ripened tomatoes. It’s not worth doing. And don’t use your tomatoes from the fridge.

Green Beans and Carrots Sauteed in Butter and Garlic

This is a simple way to prepare your veggies, but it looks really pretty and tastes delicious. The good thing about this technique is you can steam them ahead of time, and then sauté them at the last minute so you have a hot side dish ready with the rest of your meal.

Singapore Chilli Prawns (Shrimp)

I found this and thought it sounded really good. I haven’t tried it (intend to soon) but wanted to share it anyway. From a supermarket give away.

Chef Flower’s Simple Avocado Dip

I make this all the time, you will need a food processor to have a smooth texture, but if you decide to make it by hand then it will not be as smooth creamy texture and the flavour will be different.
