About

Hello and thank you for visiting my Blog, my name is Karen and I live in Scotland (home of great food & wonderful scenery).

Scotland’s food and drink comes from unspoilt habitats and varied weather, which are perfect for producing a wide variety of high quality fresh fruit, vegetables, fish, meat and much more. I have always enjoyed my food and decided I wanted to start introducing new ideas and looking for alternative ways to make my favourite dishes healthier.  I am a keep it simple but without compromise on flavour kinda girl so most of my recipes are quick and easy to create using only the best Scottish produce.  Click my Recipes image below or in menu to explore.

Having recently found a passion for photography, as I travel throughout Scotland, I pass by every day the visions of beauty this land offers and wanted to capture the moments to share with you all.

    Hi your pearl barley and split peas curry recipe calls for the split pease to be soaked overnight. All other recipes state that split peas need not be soaked. Why is this so?

    • Hi, thank you for visiting my blog. Soaking isn’t entirely necessary. Split peas cook relatively quickly. Unsoaked peas take from 1 to 2 hours of simmering & soaked peas take about 30-40 minutes. When I planned to make this recipe I didn’t have much time so I soaked overnight to quicken the cooking time. I hope this helps. Thank you.
