As soon as I spotted that @mark_diacono had a recipe for pasta with runner beans in his glorious new book Abundance I knew I had to make it and it absolutely does my favourite summer vegetable justice. I also added - cos I agree with Mark it’s not quite the right recipe for Parmesan - a little air-fried halloumi which adds a bit of pleasingly salty cheesy crunch. And washed it down with a glass of Albariño. Well done, Mark. A really lovely, hugely readable book. Shall be making many more recipes from it. #pasta #runnerbeans #halloumi #abundanceThe Belgians take their charcuterie seriously down to an entire section in the supermarket. Fun to make a charcuterie board back where we’re staying. (So much cheese we had to put that on a separate board!) Also great mustard (and great chocolate, waffles and beer obvs) #charcuterie #paté #ham #salami #waterlooGlorious meringue mountain at @auxmerveilleuxdefred_brussels.Absolutely cracking birthday lunch @quince_westgate yesterday. . Cured Chalk Stream trout with cucumber dressing and trout roe . . Skate with bouillabaisse sauce and smoked prawns . .
