Honeyed sesame chicken with peach & cucumber salad

Heat oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Heat the sunflower oil in a large frying pan over a medium heat. Season the chicken breasts with a little salt on both sides and sauté, skin-side down. After about 5 mins, when the skin is brown and crisp, flip the chicken and brown it lightly all over. Transfer to a baking tray and coat each breast in the honey. Sprinkle with sesame seeds and roast for 10-12 mins until cooked through. Meanwhile, to make the salad, slice the cucumber and toss in a bowl with the chilli and lime zest. Tip the peaches into another bowl and pour over boiling water, then immediately refresh under a cold tap. Peel, then slice and add to the cucumber and chilli. Mix the lime juice with the honey and oil. Toss with the lamb’s lettuce and cucumber salad. Lovely served with a chilled white wine, such as Gewürztraminer or Pinot Gris.

poppy seed buckwheat porridge

Poppy seed buckwheat porridge

Tip the buckwheat into a bowl. Pour in 250ml cold water, then cover and leave to soak for at least 4 hrs or preferably overnight.

Drain the soaked buckwheat and pulse a few times with the milk in a food processor to create a semi-smooth texture, then pour into a saucepan along with the poppy seeds. Cook over a low heat for 7-10 mins whisking continuously until creamy and thickened.

Put the blueberries in a small saucepan along with the orange juice, zest and cinnamon. Bring to a simmer over a medium heat and cook gently for 5 mins or until the blueberries pop and become saucy. Spoon the porridge into two bowls and top with the blueberry compote.

steak and chips

Rump steak

Take the steaks out of the fridge 30 mins before cooking them. Pat them dry and season.

Heat a non-stick heavy-based frying pan over a very high heat. Drizzle in the oil, then add the butter, garlic and steaks, nestling the herbs around them. With a pair of tongs, turn the steaks every 30 secs to 1 min so they get a nice brown crust. As a rough guide, each steak will take 3 mins in total for rare, 4-5 mins in total for medium and 7-8 mins for well done. If you have a digital cooking thermometer, the middle of the steak should be 50C for rare, 60C for medium and 70C for well done. If your steak has a thick layer of fat running down the side, hold the steak on its side with a pair of tongs and push the fat into the pan for 2 mins or until golden brown.

Transfer the steak to a plate. Cover in foil and leave to rest for 5 mins before serving.
