Many hands make light work :). I have two mini helpers with me today pressing out delicious, fresh homemade tortillas. The results of our efforts = crisp potato quesadillas with basil, walnut & pinenut pesto. Children love quesadillas, and they love making them even more.

Finally got our mitts on some fresh salad ingredients. For fresh produce directly to your door @natureschoicelondon are offering fruit & veg boxes, alongside other suppliers who would usually supply the restaurant trade, based at New Covent Garden Market. And who can resist a burrito bowl? We’ve got refried beans lightly spiced with chipotle & cumin, fresh lemon dressed salsa, guac, cumin fragrant rice, peppery salad, lime chilli salt baked totopos and a spicy cascabel salsa. Loads of fresh flavours, smokiness, spice and citrus notes to keep us going :)

Crispy quesadillas stuffed with almond feta and smoky ancho black beans. Served with a hot, creamy chipotle mayo. These were a dream :)

We are going nuts for these. Sweet potato & pecan nut tamales. Tamales are time consuming for a novice like me, and our kitchen is a bomb site now with every utensil out, Magimix, kitchen aid... but these were utterly delicious. Steamed potato mash with masa dough, cinnamon, currants, maple syrup and pecans all wrapped up in soaked corn husks, then steamed for an hour. We made a rich chocolate sauce to layer on top. With no cooking chocolate in house we used cacao, chipotle, corn starch, coconut oil and plant milk but the results were still a delight. My parcels didn’t quite come together after steaming so a good excuse to practice, and practice again :)

Turning up the heat with tempeh tacos. Teriyaki tempeh topped with Asian inspired slaw on soft corn tortillas👌 . Alfresco lunches have been a blessing this week. Keeping our fingers firmly crossed that this plague sods off soon and everyone stays safe in the meantime.

When the chips are down.. eat salsa. Last night @coolchileco delivered stacks of tinned tomatillos and dried chillies so it’s salsa time, for a long time, in our house 😍. We spotted that @mexgroceruk are also offering free home delivery to households on £35 of their stock. With catering suppliers quickly turning their attention to household deliveries, never has there been a better excuse to explore other options besides supermarkets and get creative in the kitchen. We grabbed our little patch of sunshine today and rustled up a quick chile de arbol salsa. For this toast garlic, onions, tomatillos and arbol chillies. Once charred grind them down with rapeseed oil and a dash of apple cider vinegar. We’ve made countless salsas but this is always my favourite because you can put it on absolutely everything! On the side are toasted @thelittletortilleria tortillas. Baked to perfection and drizzled with rapeseed oil and lime chilli salt this made for two very happy souls at lunchtime. It’s not all exciting flavours in our home. We’ve had baked beans on toast more times in the last week then I can remember eating in my lifetime .. but we’ve all got to go with the flow here :).
