It’s true that lamb is one of the most wine-friendly of meats, as at home with red Bordeaux and Rioja as it is with the fruitier wines of the new world. But if you’re looking for a spot-on wine pairing it’s worth thinking just how - and for how long - you’re going to cook it.

It seems extraordinarily indulgent to have a cooked breakfast on a Tuesday but why not when there are no tastings (or lunches) to go to and no trains to catch? Especially when you have a pack of @farmisonuk Ripon Cathedral collar bacon winking at you in the fridge (#paidfor in case you’re wondering!). Rescued a couple of rather sad tomatoes too to make it a bit ... um ...healthier. I discovered Farmison through @sabrinaghayour and ordered a selection of cuts from them including some Swaledale mutton I’ m thinking of turning into a tagine later today. (Loving the idea that you get a choice of breeds). We’re lucky to have some good butchers in Bristol but if you don’t they’d definitely be worth a try. #lockdowntreats. . . . #bacon #friedtomatoes #breakfast #brunch #farmisonClifton suspension bridge looking absolutely magical in the fog this morning. (Should have probably put the third shot first as everyone seems to be particularly taken with that but thank you so much for all your kind comments anyway 🙏) . . . #clifton #cliftonsuspensionbridge #bristol #fog #sundaymorningHad Jerusalem artichokes to use up and found this wonderfully indulgent @dianahenryfood recipe for Jerusalem artichoke and roast garlic soup which tastes almost truffley. Balm for the soul after a stressful 24 hours without my IPhone which chose the beginning of a lockdown weekend to die on me. Fortunately kind neighbour @rosie_somerset_lettering lent me her spare while her partner @tbarnes miraculously managed to resuscitate mine. What would we do without neighbours, eh? Still it’s embarrassing how reliant we are on our phones 🙄 Definitely advocate soup on a grey day anyway . . . #soup #jerusalemartichoke #garlic #roastgarlic #homemade #comfortfood #dianahenry #goodneighboursWe’ve been talking about Schnitzel Night for a while in one of my Zoom cooking groups and when a couple of the guys fell out @pickledmimi and I decided to do a ‘practice run’ anyway. And what a joy schnitzel is - like anything fried, really. I used pork instead of veal (from @rarebutchers) then made one of my favourite potato salads which involves hot vinegar, onion and butter with some lightly pickled cucumber on the side. We’re waiting for ya @tvsandyclarke @alanoshea13 @chefhenryeldon @ren_varsha! . . . #schnitzel #pork #escalopes #friedfood #potatosalad #pickledcucumber #homecooking #zoomcooking Follow on Instagram
